Answer:
D. because the light is reflected back into the fiber along its sides
Explanation:
The fiber is constructed in a way that the light is bent/reflected/refracted toward the center core of glass. So, from the center core, there is a layer above it that has a different propagation than the core, and above that the same thing. To give you a real world visual example, if you look down in a pool of water, then stick a straight stick into it, you see that the straight stick appears to bend. That is what is happening to the light as it travels through a different medium (air to water). This same effect is incorporated in the fiber optic cable construction.
Answer:
The answer to your question is:
Explanation:
Data
mass = 4.33 kg
E = 41.7 J
v = ?
Formula
Ke = (1/2)mv²
Clear v from the equation
v = √2ke/m
Substitution
v = √2(41.7)/4.33
v = 19.26 m/s Result
