A ray diagram for a refracted light ray is shown.

Rina8888 [55]

The dashed line represents the<u> normal </u>to the boundary

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon that occurs when a ray of light crosses the interface between two mediums.

When this occurs, the ray of light changes direction and speed.

The new direction of the ray of light is given by Snell's law:

$n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2$

where

$n_1$ is the index of refraction of the 1st medium

$n_2$ is the index of refraction of thre 2nd medium

$\theta_1$ is the angle of incidence, which is the angle between the direction of the incident ray and the normal to the boundary

$\theta_2$ is the angle of refraction, which is the angle between the direction of the refracted ray and the normal to the boundary

The index of refraction of a medium is the ratio between the speed of light in a vacuum (c) and the speed of light in that medium (v):

$n=\frac{c}{v}$

The figure in the question is missing, however you can find it in attachment.

We see that the dashed line is perpendicualr to the boundary between the two mediums, so it represents the normal.

So, the correct answer is

Normal

We note that in this case the ray of light bends towards the normal, this means that $\theta_2$ , therefore the second medium has a larger index of refraction ( $n_2>n_1$ ).

A 3.00-m rod is pivoted about its left end. A force of 7.80 N is applied perpendicular to the rod at a distance of 1.60 m from t

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The net torque about the pivot is and the answer is 'c'

c. $T_{net}=8.58$

Explanation:

$T=F*d$

The torque is the force apply in a distance so it is the moment so depends on the way to be put it the signs so:

$T_1=F_1*d_1$

$T_1=7.8N*1.6m=12.48N*m$

$T_2=F_2*d_2$

$T_2=2.60N**cos(30)*3.0m$

$T_2= - 3.9 N*m$

Now to find the net Torque is the summation of both torques

$T_{net}=T_1+T_2$

$T_{net}=12.48N-3.9N=8.58N$

A 1300 kg car traveling with a speed of 3.5 m/s executes a turn with a 8.5 m radius of curvature.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1.4 m/s/s (2.s.f)

Explanation:

The formula for centripetal acceleration is:

$a=\frac{v^{2} }{r}$ , where v is velocity and r is the radius.

In the question we are given the information that the car has a mass of 1300kg, a velocity of 2.5m/s, and a turn radius of 8.5m which are all the values we need. Therefore we can simply substitute in the values to solve the question:

$a=\frac{3.5^{2} }{8.5} \\a=1.4$

Therefore the centripetal acceleration of the car is 1.4m/s/s. (2.s.f)

Hope this helped!

What is the value of acceleration due to gravity at the pole, equator and the centre of the earth

fgiga [73]

Answer:

In combination, the equatorial bulge and the effects of the surface centrifugal force due to rotation mean that sea-level gravity increases from about 9.780 m/s2 at the Equator to about 9.832 m/s2 at the poles, so an object will weigh approximately 0.5% more at the poles than at the Equator.
