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

Answer:

It was proposed by Isaac Newton

Explanation:

The law of universal attraction of expression

          F = G \ \frac{m_1m_2}{ r^2}G m1m2 / r ^ 2

where G is a constant, m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the bodies and r the distance between them.

It was proposed by Isaac Newton

With this law Newton explained that the force that pulls the moon towards the earth is the same as that which attracts an apple towards the earth

What is linear speed called when something moves in a circle
Dmitry [639]

Answer: Tangential Velocity

The tangential velocity V is defined as the angular velocity \omega by the radius r of circular motion. As shown below:

V=\omega. r

Its name is due to the fact that this linear velocity vector is always tangent to the trajectory and is the distance traveled by a body or object in a circular movement in a period of time.
