In optics, how do you get the refractive index

Physics
1 answer:
Effectus [21]3 years ago
4 0
The change in direction of a ray depends on the change in speed of the light and can be used to calculate refractive index. When you use this relationship, the angle must always be the angle in a vacuum (or air). A ray of light is incident on the surface of the water.

A chunk of metal has a volume of
Alla [95]

Answer:

7213.7kg/m³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of the metal chunk  = 0.131m³

Mass of the metal chunk  = 945kg

Unknown:

Density of the metal chunk  = ?

Solution :

To solve this problem, density is the mass per unit volume. It is mathematically expressed as;

  Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}  

 So;

 Density  = \frac{945}{0.131}   = 7213.7kg/m³

What is the magnitude of an electric field in which the electric force on a proton is equal in magnitude to its weight?Use 1.67×
vazorg [7]

The electric force on the proton is:

F = Eq

F = electric force, E = electric field strength, q = proton charge

The gravitational force on the proton is:

F = mg

F = gravitational force, m = proton mass, g = gravitational acceleration

Since the electric force and gravitational force balance each other out, set their magnitudes equal to each other:

Eq = mg

Given values:

q = 1.60×10⁻¹⁹C, m = 1.67×10⁻²⁷kg, g = 9.81m/s²

Plug in and solve for E:

E(1.60×10⁻¹⁹) = 1.67×10⁻²⁷(9.81)

E = 1.02×10⁻⁷N/C

A bicyclist rides 1.94 km due east, while the resistive force from the air has a magnitude of 7.92 N and points due west. The ri
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Negative work done of 30729.6 Joules

Explanation:

Since work done is dot product of force and displacement. so,

W= F.d

W= F d cosΘ

where Θ is the angle between force and displacement. Since resistive force and displacement makes an angle of 180 (as one is pointed east and other west). So,

W = (7.92)(1940)(cos (180))     (distance should be in meter)

W = 15364.8(-1)

W = -15364.8 (for going east)

Total work done will be twice of that as the resistive force and distance are same for the way back.

W = -15364.8 + (-15364.8)

W = -30729.6 Joules

Heat is extracted from a certain quantity of steam at
vodomira [7]

Answer:v=2452.91 m/s

Explanation:

Given

initially steam is at 100^{\circ}C and converted to 0^{\circ} C ice

Let m be the mass of steam

latent heat of fusion and vaporization for water is

L_f=3.33\times 10^5 J/kg

L_v=2.26\times 10^6 J/kg

Heat required to convert steam in to water at 100^{\circ}C

Q_1=m\times L_v=m\cdot 2.26\times 10^6 J

Heat required to lower water temperature to 0^{\circ}C

Q_2=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q_2=m\times 4.184\times (100)

Q_2=4.184m\times 10^5 J

Heat required to convert 0^{\circ}C water to ice at 0^{\circ}C is

Q_3=m\times L_f

Q_3=m\times 3.33\times 10^5=3.33m\times 10^5 J

Q=Q_1+Q_2+Q_3

Q=(2.26+0.4184+0.33)m\times 10^6 J

Q=3.0084m\times 10^6 J

So this energy is equal to kinetic energy of  bullet of mass m moving with velocity v

Q=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

3.0084m\times 10^6=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

v^2=3.0084\times 2\times 10^6

v=2.452\times 10^3 m/s

v=2452.91 m/s
