Answer:

C) 24.4°

Explanation:

let nd = 2.419 be the index of refraction of diamond and na  = 1.0 be the index of refraction of air  and ∅c be the critical angle.

according to Snell's Law:

sin(∅c) = na/nd

sin(∅c) = (1.0)/(2.419)

      ∅c = 24.4°

What is the difference between current electricity and static electricity
Allisa [31]

Answer:

The most significant difference between the static and current electricity is that in static electricity the charges are at rest and they are accumulating on the surface of the insulator. Whereas in current electricity the electrons are moving inside the conductor.

Calculate the displacement of a motorcycle that accelerates forward from rest to 7.0 m/s in 3.5 s.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

12.25 meters

Explanation:

s=1/2(v+u)t

s= displacement

v= final velocity

u= initial velocity

t= time

7m/s+0m/s divide by 2= 3.5 m/s velocity  Times 3.5 seconds=  12.25 meters

As more lamps are put into a series circuit, the overall current in the circuit a. Increasesb. Decreasesc. Remains the same
erik [133]

Answer:

b. Decreases

Explanation:

The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual resistances:

R_T=R_1+R_2+...+R_n (1)

Therefore, as we add more lamps, the total resistance increases (because we add more positive tems in the sum in eq.(1).

The current in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:

I=\frac{V}{R_T}

where V is the voltage provided by the power source and R_T is the total resistance. We notice that the current, I, is inversely proportional to the total resistance: therefore, when more lamps are added to the series circuit, the total resistance increases, and therefore the current in the circuit decreases.
