What can you say about the speed of light in diamond?

1 answer:

7 0

So n=c/v, n= index, c=speed of light and v= speed of light in diamond. 2.42=c/v so v=c/2.42, c≈3x108 m/sec so v=1.24x108 m/sec.
Hope this helps.

What is the difference between light energy and heat energy

MrRissso [65]

ANSWER:

What is the difference between heat and light? - Physics Stack ... Heat and light are different but they are both forms of energy. Heat is a form of kinetic energy contained in the random motion of the particles of a material. Light is a form of electromagnetic energy. As with other forms of energy, heat energy can be transformed into light energy and vice versa.

Tennis balls traveling at greater than 100 mph routinely bounce off tennis rackets. At some sufficiently high speed, however, th

Kipish [7]

Answer:

Probability of tunneling is $10^{- 1.17\times 10^{32}}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Velocity of the tennis ball, v = 120 mph = 54 m/s

Mass of the tennis ball, m = 100 g = 0.1 kg

Thickness of the tennis ball, t = 2.0 mm = $2.0\times 10^{- 3}\ m$

Max velocity of the tennis ball, $v_{m} = 200\ mph$ = 89 m/s

Now,

The maximum kinetic energy of the tennis ball is given by:

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv_{m}^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.1\times 89^{2} = 396.05\ J$

Kinetic energy of the tennis ball, KE' = $\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = 0.5\times 0.1\times 54^{2} = 154.8\ m/s$

Now, the distance the ball can penetrate to is given by:

$\eta = \frac{\bar{h}}{\sqrt{2m(KE - KE')}}$

$\bar{h} = \frac{h}{2\pi} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{2\pi} = 1.0545\times 10^{- 34}\ Js$

Thus

$\eta = \frac{1.0545\times 10^{- 34}}{\sqrt{2\times 0.1(396.05 - 154.8)}}$

$\eta = 1.52\times 10^{-35}\ m$

Now,

We can calculate the tunneling probability as:

$P(t) = e^{\frac{- 2t}{\eta}}$

$P(t) = e^{\frac{- 2\times 2.0\times 10^{- 3}}{1.52\times 10^{-35}}} = e^{-2.63\times 10^{32}}$

$P(t) = e^{-2.63\times 10^{32}}$

Taking log on both the sides:

$logP(t) = -2.63\times 10^{32} loge$

$P(t) = 10^{- 1.17\times 10^{32}}$

Can someone awnser this

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The force of gravity exerts a downward force. The floor exerts an upward force. Since these two forces are of equal magnitude and in opposite directions, they balance each other.
