Which property of light remains unchanged when it enters a different medium?

2 answers:

7 0

B. Frequency remains unchanged because the energy in a photon is E=hf. So if the frequency changes so does the energy and that doesn't happen to EM waves entering a medium by the conservation of energy

A 10.2-kg mass is located at the origin, and a 4.6-kg mass is located at x = 8.1 cm. Assuming g is constant, what is the locatio

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

center of mass of the two masses will lie at x = 2.52 cm

center of gravity of the two masses will lie at x = 2.52 cm

So center of mass is same as center of gravity because value of gravity is constant here

Explanation:

Position of centre of mass is given as

$r_{cm} = \frac{m_1r_1 + m_2r_2}{m_1 + m_2}$

here we have

$m_1 = 10.2 kg$

$m_2 = 4.6 kg$

$r_1 = (0, 0)$

$r_2 = (8.1cm, 0)$

now we have

$r_{cm} = \frac{10.2 (0,0) + 4.6 (8.1 , 0)}{10.2 + 4.6}$

$r_{cm} = {(37.26, 0)}{14.8}$

$r_{cm} = (2.52 cm, 0)$

so center of mass of the two masses will lie at x = 2.52 cm

now for center of gravity we can use

$r_g_{cm} = \frac{m_1gr_1 + m_2gr_2}{m_1g + m_2g}$

here we have

$m_1 = 10.2 kg$

$m_2 = 4.6 kg$

$r_1 = (0, 0)$

$r_2 = (8.1cm, 0)$

now we have

$r_g_{cm} = \frac{10.2(9.8) (0,0) + 4.6(9.8) (8.1 , 0)}{10.2(9.8) + 4.6(9.8)}$

$r_g_{cm} = {(37.26, 0)}{14.8}$

$r_g_{cm} = (2.52 cm, 0)$

So center of mass is same as center of gravity because value of gravity is constant here

Are the objects described here in static equilibrium, dynamic equilibrium, or not equilibrium at all? Explain.

Alexandra [31]

Let us examine the given situations one at a time.

Case a. A 200-pound barbell is held over your head.
The barbell is in static equilibrium because it is not moving.
Answer: STATIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case b. A girder is being lifted at a constant speed by a crane.
The girder is moving, but not accelerating. It is in dynamic equilibrium.
Answer: DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case c: A jet plane has reached its cruising speed at an altitude.
The plane is moving at cruising speed, but not accelerating. It is in dynamic equilibrium.
Answer: DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case d: A box in the back of a truck doesn't slide as the truck stops.
The box does not slide because the frictional force between the box and the floor of the truck balances out the inertial force. The box is in static equilibrium.
Answer: STATIC EQUILIBRIUM
