You send a beam of light from a material with index of refraction 1.21 into an unknown material. In order to help identify this

material, you determine its index of refraction by measuring the angles of incidence and refraction for which you find the values 41.9° and 37.3° , respectively. What is the index of refraction of the unknown material?

Answer:

refractive index of the unknown material is 1.33.

Explanation:

μ₁ = 1.21

incidence angle (i) = 41.9°

refraction angle (r) = 37.3°

Let us assume μ be the refractive index of the unknown material

according to snell's law of refraction.

μ₁ sin i = μ₂ sin r

1.21 × sin 41.9° =  μ × sin 37.3°

μ = 1.33

hence the refractive index of the unknown material comes out top be 1.33

An 8.00- W resistor is dissipating 100 watts. What are the current through it and the difference of potential across it?
hjlf

Answer:

I= 3.5 amps

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

rating of resistor R= 8 ohms

power P= 100W

Required

The current I

Step two

Yet this power is also given by

P = I^2R

make I subject of the formula we have

I= \sqrt{\frac{P}{R} }

substitute

I= \sqrt{\frac{100}{8} }\\\\I=\sqrt{12.5}\\\\I= 3.5 amps

How does mass effect potential and kinetic energy on a roller coaster?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Potential energy is measured by mass * gravity * height. So, the larger the mass on a roller coaster, the more potential energy it has. 

Also, the higher it is, the more potential energy it has.

What causes the pressure that allows diamonds to form in the mantle?
IceJOKER [234]
Diamonds are supposed to formed about 90 miles below the surface of the earth in the mantle. Therefore, the weight of the earth overhead them produces the pressure to form the diamond. The rocks weight overhead the mantle outcomes in high pressure and diamonds essential high temperatures and pressure to form as of carbon.Diamonds form in the mantle in definite precincts where situations are right for them to do so. There just chances to be the right critical temperature-pressure-mineral environment in the mantle in definite areas for their formation.
