Answer:

0.139 rad

Explanation:

We use Snell's law n_1sin\theta_1=n_2sin\theta_2, where if n_1 is the <em>refractive index</em> of the medium containing the <em>incident ray</em>, \theta_1 would be the <em>incident angle</em>, and if n_2 is the <em>refractive index</em> of the medium containing the <em>refracted ray</em>, \theta_2 would be the <em>refraction angle</em>, which we want, so we do:

sin\theta_2=\frac{n_1}{n_2}sin\theta_1

And finally:

\theta_2=arcsin(\frac{n_1}{n_2}sin\theta_1)

We then insert our values:

\theta_2=arcsin(\frac{n_1}{n_2}sin\theta_1)=Arcsin(\frac{1}{3.325}sin(0.478rad))=arcsin(0.13834714686&#10;)=0.139 rad

Finally, you are ready to answer the main question. Cheetahs, the fastest of the great cats, can reach 50.0 miles/hour in 2.22 s
muminat

Answer:

Acceleration = 10.06 m/s²

Explanation:

1 mile = 1.6093km

1609.3m = 1 mile

1 m = \frac{1}{1609} mile

50.0 miles/hour = \frac{50 * 1609.3}{60 * 60} m/s

                          = 22.35m/s

from equation

S = Ut + 1/2 at²

v = U + at

22.35 = 0 + a * 2.22

a = 22.35 ÷ 2.22

= 10.06 m/s²

Explain how a battery works. What are some possible materials you could use to make a battery for a circuit?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Batteries are systems that store chemical energy and then release it as electrical energy when they are connected to a circuit. Batteries can be made from many materials, but they all share three main components: a metal anode, a metal cathode and an electrolyte between them. The electrolyte is an ionic solution that allows charge to flow through the system. When a load, such as a light bulb, is connected, an oxidation-reduction reaction occurs that releases electrons from the anode while the cathode gains electrons

Find an expression for the kinetic energy of the car at the top of the loop.Express the kinetic energy in terms of m, g, h, and
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

K.E₂ = mg(h - 2R)

Explanation:

The diagram of the car at the top of the loop is given below. Considering the initial position of the car and the final position as the top of the loop. We apply law of conservation of energy:

K.E₁ + P.E₁ = K.E₂ + P.E₂

where,

K.E₁ = Initial Kinetic Energy = (1/2)mv² = (1/2)m(0 m/s)² = 0 (car initially at rest)

P.E₁ = Initial Potential Energy = mgh

K.E₂ = Final Kinetic Energy at the top of the loop = ?

P.E₂ = Final Potential Energy = mg(2R) (since, the height at top of loop is 2R)

Therefore,

0 + mgh = K.E₂ + mg(2R)

<u>K.E₂ = mg(h - 2R)</u>

A ball is fixed to the end of a string, which is attached to the ceiling at point P. As the drawing shows, the ball is projected
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The ball's initial kinetic energy

The ball comes to a stop at B. At this point its initial kinetic energy is converted into potential energy

Explanation:

A ball is fixed to the end of a string, which is attached to the ceiling at point P. As the drawing shows, the ball is projected downward at A with the launch speed v0. Traveling on a circular path, the ball comes to a halt at point B. What enables the ball to reach point B, which is above point A? Ignore friction and air resistance.

From conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, but can be transformed from one form to another.

Ki+Ui=Kf+Uf

Ki=initial kinetic energy

Ui=initial potential energy

Kf=final kinetic energy

Uf=final potential energy

we know that \frac{1}{2} mu^{2} +mgha=\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} +mghb

m=mass of the ball

ha=downward height a

hb=upward height b

u=initial velocity u

v=final velocity v, which is 0

g=acceleration due to gravity

v=0 at final velocity

1/2mu^2+mgha=0+1/2mv^2

ha=hb+Ki/mh

From the above equation, we can conclude that the ball's initial kinetic energy  is responsible for making the ball reach point B.

Point B is higher than point A from the motion gained by the ball
