Answer:The refractive index (n?) of a material is defined as the ratio of velocity of light in a vacuum to that in a defined material. The refractive index of a glass is not a constant, but depends on the wavelength of the incident light, known as dispersion

Answer: No

Explanation:

The refractive index (n?) of a material is defined as the ratio of velocity of light in a vacuum to that in a defined material. The refractive index of a glass is not a constant, but depends on the wavelength of the incident light, known as dispersion.

An electron is accelerated through 2400 V from rest and then enters a region in which there is a uniform 1.70 T magnetic field.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v be the velocity acquired by electron in electric field

V q = 1/2 m v²

V is potential difference applied on charge q , m is mass of charge , v is velocity acquired

2400 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = .5 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v²

v² = 844 x 10¹²

v = 29.05 x 10⁶ m /s

Maximum force will be exerted on moving electron when it moves perpendicular to magnetic field .

Maximum force = Bqv , where B is magnetic field , q is charge on electron and v is velocity of electron

= 1.7 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 29.05 x 10⁶

= 79.02 x 10⁻¹³ N .

Minimum force will be zero when electron moves along the direction of magnetic field .

A loud sound is produced in the downtown section of a city. Which of the following is least likely to occur with the sound wave
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A. The sound wave will reflect off Buildings and automobiles.

Explanation:

This is because the sound waves would more likely propagate through diffraction through buildings and transmission through the air. It is also more likely to be absorbed by buildings than for multiple reflections to occur off buildings and automobiles. In the process of reflection, these materials would absorb the sound energy thereby reducing its ability to reflect.

A 4.9-MeV (kinetic energy) proton enters a 0.28-T field, in a plane perpendicular to the field. Part APart complete What is the
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

r=1.14m

Explanation:

\theta is the angle between the velocity and the magnetic field. So, the magnetic force on the proton is:

F_m=qvBsen\theta\\F_m=qvBsen(90^\circ)\\F_m=qvB

A charged particle describes a semicircle in a uniform magnetic field. Therefore, applying Newton's second law to uniform circular motion:

F_m=F_c\\qvB=F_c(1)

F_c is the centripetal force and is defined as:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}

Here v is the proton's speed and r is the radius of the circular motion. Replacing this in (1) and solving for r:

qvB=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\r=\frac{mv^2}{qvB}\\r=\frac{mv}{qB}

Recall that 1 J is equal to 6.242*10^{12}MeV, so:

4.9MeV*\frac{1J}{6.242*10^{12}MeV}=7.85*10^{-13}J

We can calculate v from the kinetic energy of the proton:

K=\frac{mv^2}{2}\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(7.85*10^{-13}J)}{1.67*10^{-27}kg}}\\v=3.06*10^{7}\frac{m}{s}

Finally, we calculate the radius of the proton path:

r=\frac{mv}{qB}\\r=\frac{1.67*10^{-27}kg(3.06*10^{7}\frac{m}{s})}{1.6*10^{-19}C(0.28T)}\\r=1.14m
