A ray of red light in air is incident at an angle of 30. on a
Vlad [161]

Answer:

20 degrees.

Explanation:

From Snell’s law of refraction:

sinθ1•n1 = sinθ2•n2

where θ1 is the incidence angle, θ2 is the refraction angle, n1 is the refraction index of light in medium1, and n2 is the refraction index for virgin olive oil. The incidence angle of the red light is θ1 = 30 degrees.

The red light is in air as medium1, so n1 (air) = 1.00029

So, to find θ2, the refracted angle:

sinθ1•1.00029 = sinθ2•1.464

sin(30)•1.00029 / 1.464 = sinθ2

0.5•1.00029 / 1.464 = sinθ2

sinθ2 = 0.3416291

θ2 = arcsin(0.3416291)

θ2 = 19.976 degrees

To the nearest degree,

θ2 = 20 degrees.

You observe three carts moving to the left. Cart A moves to the left at nearly constant speed. Cart B moves to the left, gradual
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:cart B

Explanation:

For cart A speed is constant therefore there is no acceleration because acceleration is rate of change of velocity

thus there is no net force

For cart B there is change in velocity in the left direction , so there is net acceleration towards left

Force=mass\times acceleration

so there is net force in the left direction

For cart C there is decrease in velocity i.e. negative acceleration or deceleration . Therefore there is a net force towards right which opposes the motion

A skater increases her velocity from 2.0 m/s to 10.0 m/s in 3.0 seconds. What is the skater's acceleration?
geniusboy [140]

As change is velocity is

<span>Δv=<span>10 m s<span>−1</span></span>−<span>2 m s<span>−1</span></span>=<span>8 m s<span>−1</span></span></span>

and time taken is 3 seconds so acceleration is

<span>acceleration=<span>change in velocitychange in time</span></span>

So

<span>a=<span><span>8 m s<span>−1</span></span>3 s</span>=<span>2.7 m s<span>−<span>2</span></span></span></span>
