We are given with
distance traveled through vacuum = 1.0 m
refractive index of water = 1.33
refractive index of glass = 1.50
refractive index of diamond = 2.42

distance traveled through water is = 1.0/1.33 = 0.75 m
distance traveled through water is = 1.0/1.50 = 0.67 m
distance traveled through water is = 1.0/2.42 = 0.41 m

Answer:

distance travelled in water = 1 / 1.33 = 0.75 m

distance travelled in glass = 1/ 1.5 = 0.66 m

distance travelled in diamond = 1/ 2.42 = 0.41 m

Explanation:

velocity of light in water, glass and diamond will be 1/1.33 , 1/1.5 and 1/2.42 times respectively of that in vacuum. So distance travelled in these mediums will be less.

Marizza181 [45]

The force on the clove will have the same magnitude but a negative sign with it that is F = - 14 N

<h3>What is force and how do we calculate it ?</h3>

The definition of force is: The pushing or pulling on a massed object changes its velocity. Force is an external agent that has the power to alter a body's resting or moving condition.

It has a size and a movement.

Newton's second law of motion defines the force formula as follows:

A force is equal to an object's mass times its acceleration, or F = m a. You must use SI units when applying this formula: kilograms for mass, meters per second squared for acceleration, and newtons for force.

A body oscillates with simple harmonic motion along the x axis. Its displacement varies with time according to the equation x =
frutty [35]

Answer:

θ = (7π / 3) rad

Explanation:

given,

displacement of simple harmonic motion along x-axis

equation is given as

                   x = 5 sin (π t + π/3 )

general equation of simple harmonic motion

                   x = A sin θ

           θ is the phase angle

      θ = π t + π/3

at   t = 2 s

      \theta =\pi \times 2 +\dfrac{\pi}{3}

      \theta =\dfrac{7\pi}{3}\ rad

Phase of the motion at t =2 s is θ = (7π / 3) rad

How to determine the parametric equation using Newtons second law
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of a system is directly proportional to and in the same direction as the net external force acting on the system, and inversely proportional to its mass. In equation form, Newton's second law of motion is a=Fnetm a = F net m .
