A beam of white light enters a prism of crown glass (n = 1.5) from air (n = 1.00). Once inside, the colors in the light disperse

. The white light enters at an angle of 51 degrees. The blue light inside refracts at 19.5 degrees once inside the glass. What is the index of refraction of crown glass for blue light?

Answer:

= 2.33

Explanation:

.According to snell's law:

n1sin i = n2sin r ,

where n1 is refractive index of the medium in which incident ray is travelling, n2 is the refractive index of the medium in which refracted ray is travelling,

i is angle of incidence,

r is angle of refraction.

Given that,

n1 = 1,

i = 51 degrees,

r = 19.5 degrees. ,

n2= ?

So,

1*sin 51 = n2 sin 19.5  

=> n2 = sin51 / sin19.5

 = 2.33

Hello guys! Can u please help me with physics. I translated it in English. Can yall help me please how much u can!!

1. Since the body is thrown vertically upward, the only force acting on it as it rises and falls is gravity, which causes a constant downward acceleration with magnitude g = 9.8 m/s². Because this acceleration is constant, we can use the formula

v² - u² = 2a ∆x

where

u = initial speed

v = final speed

a = acceleration

∆x = displacement

At its maximum height, some distance y above the point where the body is launched, the body has zero velocity, so

0² - (20 m/s)² = 2 (-9.8 m/s²) y

Solve for y :

y = (20 m/s)² / (2 (9.8 m/s²)) ≈ 20.4 m

2. Relative to the ground, the body's maximum height is 60 m + 20.4 m ≈ 80.4 m.

3. At any time t ≥ 0, the body's vertical velocity is given by

v = 20 m/s - gt

At the highest point, we have

0 = 20 m/s - (9.8 m/s²) t

and solving for t gives

t = (20 m/s) / (9.8 m/s²) ≈ 2.04 s

4. The body's height y above the ground at any time t ≥ 0 is given by

y = 60 m + (20 m/s) t - 1/2 gt²

Solve for t when y = 0 :

0 = 60 m + (20 m/s) t - 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) t²

Using the quadratic formula,

t = (-b + √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

(and omitting the negative root, which gives a negative solution) where a = -1/2 (9.8 m/s²), b = 20 m/s, and c = 60 m. You should end up with

t ≈ 6.09 s

5. At the time found in (4), the body's velocity is

v = 20 m/s - g (6.09 s) ≈ -39.7 m/s

Speed is the magnitude of velocity, so the speed in question is 39.7 m/s.

wariber [46]
Probably for the umbilical cord that connects babies (from their early stages in the womb to their removal) to their mothers. The cord is cut, forming the belly button. This is analogous to astronauts in space.
