Answer:

The second material's index of refraction is 1.17.

Explanation:

Given that,

Refractive index of the material, n = 1.29

Critical angle is 65.9 degrees.

We need to find the second material's index of refraction. We know that at critical angle of incidence, angle of refraction is equal to 90 degrees. Using Snell's law as:

n_1\sin \theta_c=n_2\sin (90)\\\\n_2=n_1\sin \theta_c\\\\n_2=1.29\times \sin (65.9)\\\\n_2=1.17

So, the second material's index of refraction is 1.17.

The vector product of vectors A⃗ and B⃗ has magnitude 12.0 m2 and is in the +z-direction.Vector A⃗ has magnitude 4.0 m and is in
g100num [7]

Answer:

θ=180°

Explanation:

The problem says that the vector product of A and B is in the +z-direction, and that the vector A is in the -x-direction. Since vector B has no x-component, and is perpendicular to the z-axis (as A and B are both perpendicular to their vector product), vector B has to be in the y-axis.

Using the right hand rule for vector product, we can test the two possible cases:

  • If vector B is in the +y-axis, the product AxB should be in the -z-axis. Since it is in the +z-axis, this is not correct.

  • If vector B is in the -y-axis, the product AxB should be in the +z-axis. This is the correct option.

Now, the problem says that the angle θ is measured from the +y-direction to the +z-direction. This means that the -y-direction has an angle of 180° (half turn).

Nikolay [14]

1. a. longitudinal waves.

There are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in transverse waves, the oscillations of the wave occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave

- Longitudinal waves: in longitudinal waves, the oscillations of the waves occur parallel to the direction in which the waves are travelling.

So, these types of waves are called longitudinal waves.


2. d. a medium

There are two types of waves:

- Electromagnetic waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of electric and magnetic field, and they can travel both in a medium and also in a vacuum (they do not need a medium to propagate)

- Mechanical waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of the particles in a medium, so they need a medium to propagate - therefore, the correct choice is d. a medium


3. a. AM/FM radio

Analogue signals consist of continuous signals, which vary in a continuous range of values. On the contrary, digital signals consist of discrete signals, which can assume only some discrete values. For AM and FM radios, signals are transmitted by using analogue signals.
