Calculate the critical angle for light going from Glycerine to air.

Georgia [21]

The refractive index for glycerine is $n_g=1.473$ , while for air it is $n_a = 1.00$ .

When the light travels from a medium with greater refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, there is a critical angle over which there is no refraction, but all the light is reflected. This critical angle is given by:
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )$
where n1 and n2 are the refractive indices of the two mediums. If we susbtitute the refractive index of glycerine and air in the formula, we find the critical angle for this case:
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{1.00}{1.473} )=42.8^{\circ}$

How many times farther is Proxima Centauri from the sun than is earth from the sun

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Of the three stars in the system, the dimmest - called Proxima Centauri - is actually the nearest star to the Sun. The two bright stars, called Alpha Centauri A and B form a close binary system; they are separated by only 23 times the Earth - Sun distance.

A parallel plate capacitor is constructed using two square metal sheets, each of side L = 10 cm. The plates are separated by a d

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The energy stored is 1.4 x 10^-9 J.

Explanation:

Side of square, L = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Distance, d = 2 mm = 0.002 m

Electric field, E = 4000 V/m

The energy stored in the capacitor is

$U = 0.5 C V^2$

The capacitance is given by

$C = \frac{\varepsilon o A}{d}\\\\So \\\\U = 0.5\frac{\varepsilon o A}{d}\times E^2 d^2\\\\U = 0.5\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.1\times 0.1\times 4000\times 4000\times 0.002\\\\U = 1.4\times10^{-9} J$

Which of the following best describes what we mean by the universe? (A) all the galaxies in all the superclusters(B) the sum tot

EastWind [94]

Answer:

(B) the sum total of all matter and energy

Explanation:

Universe comprises of all the matter and energy that exists in space. It contains billions of stars, planets and interstellar matter that is clouds of dust and gas. There is large amount of the empty space in between.

Universe contains stars as many as grains of sand on all beaches on the Earth. These stars are grouped into galaxies. Milky Way is one of the galaxies. Galaxies can be grouped into clusters and super-clusters.
