Two soccer players, Mia and Alice, are running as Alice passes the ball to Mia. Mia is running due north with a speed of 5.30 m/

s. The velocity of the ball relative to Mia is 3.60 m/s in a direction 30.0degree east of south.
A) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the ball relative to the ground?
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

a) v_{p}  = 2.83 m / s ,  b)  50.5º north east

Explanation:

This is a vector problem.

         v_{bg} = v_{bm} + v_{mg}

The speed of the ball with respect to the ground is the speed of the ball with respect to Mia plus the speed of Mia with respect to the ground

To make the sum we decompose the speed of the ball in its components

The angle of 30 east of the south, measured from the positive side of the x axis is

             θ = 30 + 270 = 300

            v_{bx} = v_{b} cos 300

             v_{by} = v_{b} sin. 300

             v_{bx} = 3.60 cos 300 = 1.8 m / s

             v_{by} = 3.60 sin 300 = -3,118 m / s

Let's add speeds on each axis

X axis

            vₓ = v_{bx}

             vₓ = 1.8 m / s

Y Axis  

             v_{y} = v1 - vpy

             v_{y} = 5.30 - 3.118

             v_{y} = 2.182 m / s

The magnitude of the velocity can be found using the Pythagorean theorem

              v_{p} = √ (vₓ² + v_{y}²)

               v_{p} = √ (1.8² + 2.182²)

               v_{p} = 2,829 m / s

               v_{p}  = 2.83 m / s

b) for direction use trigonometry

              tan θ = v_{y} / vₓ

              θ = tan ⁺¹ v_{y} / vₓ

              θ = tan⁻¹ 2.182 / 1.8

         Tea = 50.48º

This address is 50.5º north east

The vitreous humor, a transparent, gelatinous fluid that fills most of the eyeball, has an index of refraction of 1.34. Visible
Leto [7]

Answer:

a)   298.5 nm ,  522.4 nm  and b)  radiation frequency does not change

Explanation:

When electromagnetic radiation reaches a medium with a different index of refraction, the medium vibrates the molecules, as if it were a resonance process, whereby the medium vibrates at the same frequency as the incident light.

On the other hand, when the light reaches another medium its average speed within the medium changes, it is now less than the speed of light in a vacuum (c) for this to happen as we saw that the frequency is constant there must be a change in the wavelength of the radiation that is characterized by the ratio

    λₙ = λ₀ / n

    λₙ = 400 nm    in the void

    λₙ = 400 / 1.34

    λₙ= 298.5 nm

   λ₀ = 700 nm

   λₙ = 700 / 1.34

   λₙ = 522.4 nm

The radiation frequency does not change
