Answer:

a) the Angle te also decreases , b) decrease, c) unchanged , d) the speed decrease , e) unchanged

Explanation:

When a ray of light passes from one transparent material to another, it must comply with the law of refraction

     n1 sin θ₁ = n2 sin θ₂

Where index v1 is for the incident ray and index 2 for the refracted ray

With this expression let's examine the questions

a) They indicate that the refractive index increases,

      sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

     θ₂ = sin⁻¹ (n₁ /n₂   sin θ₁)

    As m is greater than n1 the quantity on the right is less than one, the whole quantity in parentheses decreases so the Angle te also decreases

Answer is decrease

b) The wave velocity eta related to the wavelength and frequency

      v = λ f

The frequency does not change since the passage from one medium to the other is a process of forced oscillation, resonance whereby the frequency in the two mediums is the same.

The speed decreases with the indicated refraction increases and therefore the wavelength decreases

      λ = λ₀ / n

The answer is decrease

c) from the previous analysis the frequency remains unchanged

d) the refractive index is defined by

       n = c / v

So if n increases, the speed must decrease

The answer is decrease

e) the energy of the photon is given by the Planck equation

      E = h f

Since the frequency does not change, the energy does not change either

Answer remains unchanged

A 438kg car is accelerating east at 2.55m/s^2. What is the total force acting east on the car
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<h2>1116.9 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 438 × 2.55

We have the final answer as

<h3>1116.9 N</h3>

A 65.0-Ω resistor is connected to the terminals of a battery whose emf is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is 0.5 Ω. Calcula
Luda [366]

Answer:

a) 0.1832 A

b) 11.91 Volts

c) 2.18 Watt , 0.0168 Watt

Explanation:

(a)

R = external resistor connected to the terminals of the battery = 65 Ω

E = Emf of the battery = 12.0 Volts

r = internal resistance of the battery = 0.5 Ω

i = current flowing in the circuit

Using ohm's law

E = i (R + r)

12 = i (65 + 0.5)

i = 0.1832 A

(b)

Terminal voltage is given as

V_{ab} = i R

V_{ab} = (0.1832) (65)

V_{ab} = 11.91 Volts

(c)

Power dissipated in the resister R is given as

P_{R} = i²R

P_{R} = (0.1832)²(65)

P_{R} = 2.18 Watt

Power dissipated in the internal resistance is given as

P_{r} = i²r

P_{r} = (0.1832)²(0.5)

P_{r} = 0.0168 Watt

After an initial race George determines that his car loses 35 percent of its acceleration due to air resistance travelling at 38
ddd [48]

Answer:

64.2 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Speed ,v=38 m/s

We have to find the maximum speed when his car reach on flat ground.

Using dimensional analysis

F_{res}\propto v^2

If 35% acceleration reduced by F(res) at 38 m/s

Then, 100% acceleration  can be reduced  by F(res) at v' m/s

\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{v^2}{v'^2}

v'^2=\frac{F_2}{F_1}v^2

v'=v\sqrt{\frac{F_2}{F_1}}

Substitute the values

v'=38\times \sqrt{\frac{100}{35}}

v'=64.2 m/s

Hence, the maximum speed when his car can reach on flat ground=64.2 m/s
