I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! Light passes from air into water at an angle of 40.0° to the normal. What is the angle of refraction
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Angle of Refraction = 28.9 degrees

Explanation:

<u><em>We'll use Snell's law for this. It's mathematical form is:</em></u>

=> n_1* sin(\alpha _1)=n_2 * sin(\alpha _2)

Where n_{1} = 1, n_{2} = 1.33, \alpha _{2} = 40^o

=> n_{1} and n_{2} are the refractive indexes of the air and water respectively.

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

=> 1 * sin (40) = 1.33 * sin(\alpha _{2})

=> sin \alpha _{2} = \frac{sin 40^0}{1.33}

=> sin \alpha _{2} = 0.4821

=> \alpha _{2} = 28.9 degrees

What do you know about potential energy? And how do we use it?
Liula [17]
Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. There are basically two main types of energy, kinetic and potential. Potential energy is energy that is stored. There are various types of stored, or potential energy. Chemical energy from a battery is a potential form of energy, elastic energy in a stretched rubber band is a form of potential energy, but the most commonly referred to form of potential energy in physics is that of gravitational potential energy. This is energy that is stored due to an object's position. It is dependent on the mass of the object, the height of the object above the ground or Earth, and the acceleration due to gravity.

Calculate the potential difference across a 25- resistor if a 0.3-A current is flowing through it.
alekssr [168]

Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

Voltage = (0.3 A) x (25 ohms)

Voltage = (0.3 x 25) (A-Ω)

<em>Voltage = 7.5 volts</em>

A parallel-plate capacitor initially has a potential difference of 400 V and is then disconnected from the charging battery. If
Damm [24]

The capacitance of a capacitor is the ratio of the stored charge to its potential difference, i.e.

C = Q/ΔV

C is the capacitance

Q is the stored charge

ΔV is the potential difference

Rearrange the equation:

ΔV = Q/C

We also know the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:

C = κε₀A/d

C is the capacitance

κ is the capacitor's dielectric constant

ε₀ is the electric constant

A is the area of the plates

d is the plate separation

If we substitute C:

ΔV = Qd/(κε₀A)

We assume the stored charge and the area of the plates don't change. Then if we double the plate spacing, i.e. we double the value of d, then the potential difference ΔV is also doubled.
