Which term describes the tendency of an object to resist changes in motion?

Assume a beam of light hits the boundary separating medium 1, with index of refraction n1 and medium 2, with index of refraction

Reptile [31]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

Given,

Refractive index of medium 1 = n₁

Refractive index of medium 2 = n₂

For total internal reflection to take place light should move from denser medium to the rarer medium.

Here Total internal reflection take place at the boundary of medium 1 and medium 2 so, the refractive index of medium 1 is more than medium 2

n₁ > n₂

The correct answer is option C

Based on the information presented in the graph, what is the velocity of the object?

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

<u>The velocity of a position-time graph is the slope of the line.</u> Slope is rise over run, or rise divided by run. The rise (how many units the line goes up) is 3 units and the run is 1 unit. 3/1 is 3, so the velocity is 3 m/s.

Two protons are aimed directly toward each other by a cyclotron accelerator with speeds of 1200 km/s , measured relative to the

Radda [10]

Answer:

The maximum electrical force is $2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of cyclotron = 1200 km/s

Initially the two protons are having kinetic energy given by

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

When they come to the closest distance the total kinetic energy is converts into potential energy given by

Using conservation of energy

$mv^2=\dfrac{kq^2}{r}$

$r=\dfrac{kq^2}{mv^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\dfrac{8.99\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{1.67\times10^{-27}\times(1200\times10^{3})^2}$

$r=9.57\times10^{-14}\ m$

We need to calculate the maximum electrical force

Using formula of force

$F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}$

$F=\dfrac{8.99\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{(9.57\times10^{-14})^2}$

$F=2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$

Hence, The maximum electrical force is $2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$ .

I need the answer to this question what has the student plotted on the vertical axis?

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

In trying to achieve what the student wanted to see, which is to see the relationship between the weight the cord can hold and how long the cord will stretch. Since the origin of the graph is from zero, the value plotted on the vertical axis would be just the length caused by each weights. Thus, <u>the original length would have to be subtracted from the measured length to determine the actual length caused by the weight added to the cord</u>.
