A ray in plastic has a critical angle of 44.4 deg when trying to enter air. What is the index of refraction for the plastic?

Physics

8 0

Answer: 1.43

Explanation:

Given that:

C (critical angle) = 44.4°

n (refractive index of plastic) = ?

Apply the formula n = 1/sineC, the index of refraction for the plastic can be obtained by:

n = 1/sineC

n = 1/sine 44.4°

n = (1/0.6996)

n = 1.43

Thus, the index of refraction for the plastic is 1.43

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Option C=> π+.

Explanation:

Just as it is given in the question above, we can see that the addition or combination of proton and neutron gives what is known as QUARKS.

Quarks are not easily measured because one can not see and study a quark independently; quarks move in multiples together.

The study of Quarks is very important in physics because they relate very well with electromagnetic force, strong force, weak force and Gravitational force.

"...When the remaining quarks combine to form a single particle, it is a π+".

π+ is a meson or a pion and it contains quarks and anti-quarks too

Which of the following soil types is richest in organic material?
klasskru [66]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The soil type that is the richest in organic material would be a dark-colored soil. Decaying matter turns brownish-black which makes this type of soil having a dark color even almost black.

Describa con sus palabras que fue lo que descubrio galileo en su legendario experimento en la torre inclinada de pisa
german

Answer:

En 1589 Galileo realizó un experimento lanzando dos bolas de diferentes masas desde la famosa Torre Inclinada de Pisa para demostrar que el tiempo de caída es independiente de la masa de la bola. A través de este experimento, Galileo descubrió que los cuerpos caían casi simultáneamente, refutando la teoría de Aristóteles de que la tasa de caída era proporcional a la masa del cuerpo.  

Debido a la imperfección de los equipo de medición de esa época, la caída libre de los cuerpos era casi imposible de estudiar. En busca de una forma de reducir la velocidad de movimiento, Galileo reemplazó la caída libre por rodar sobre una superficie inclinada, donde había velocidades y resistencia del aire significativamente más bajas. Se notó que con el tiempo, la velocidad del movimiento aumenta: los cuerpos se mueven con aceleración. Se concluyó que la velocidad y la aceleración no dependen ni de la masa ni del material de la pelota.

Ocean waves are hitting a beach with a frequency of 0.100 Hz. Their average wavelength is 15.0 m. What is their average speed?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Average speed=1.5 m/s

Frequency of pendulum=93.75Hz

Explanation:

We are given

Frequency, f=0.100Hz

Average wavelength =\lambda=15m

Speed of pendulum, v=30m/s

Wavelength, \lambda'=0.32m

We have to find the average speed and frequency of pendulum.

We know that

Speed,v=\lambda f

Using the formula

Average speed,v=15\times 0.1=1.5m/s

Hence, the average speed =1.5m/s

Frequency, f=\frac{v}{\lambda'}

Using the formula

f=\frac{30}{0.32}

f=93.75Hz

Hence, the frequency of a pendulum=93.75Hz

Each ball has a negligible size and a mass of 11.5 kg and is attached to the end of a rod whose mass may be neglected. The rod i
Digiron [165]

Answer:

3.31m/s

Explanation:

Angular momentum for 3s is

L = L_i_n_i + L_3_s

L = 2(11.5kg) + \int\limits^ {3s}_ {0s} {(t^2 + 2)} \, dt

L = 23kg+(\frac{t^3}{3} +2t)^ {3s}_ {0s}\\\\L=38kgm/s

Moment if inertia is

I = 2ml^2

I = 2(11.5)(0.5)^2\\\\I=5.75kgm^2

Angular speed

ω = L/I

= 38 / 5.75\\\\=6.61

The speed of each ball is

V = ωL

= 6.61\times0.5\\\\= 3.31m/s
