Answer:

a) n2 = 1.55

b) 408.25 nm

c) 4.74*10^14 Hz

d) 1.93*10^8 m/s

Explanation:

a) To find the index of refraction of the syrup solution you use the Snell's law:

n_1sin\theta_1=n_2sin\theta_2   (1)

n1: index of refraction of air

n2: index of syrup solution

angle1: incidence angle

angle2: refraction angle

You replace the values of the parameter in (1) and calculate n2:

n_2=\frac{n_1sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}=\frac{(1)(sin30.2\°)}{sin18.82\°}=1.55

b) To fond the wavelength in the solution you use:

\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}\\\\\lambda_2=\lambda_1\frac{n_1}{n_2}=(632.8nm)\frac{1.00}{1.55}=408.25nm

c) The frequency of the wave in the solution is:

v=\lambda_2 f_2\\\\f_2=\frac{v}{\lambda_2}=\frac{c}{n_2\lambda_2}=\frac{3*10^8m/s}{(1.55)(408.25*10^{-9}m)}=4.74*10^{14}\ Hz

d) The speed in the solution is given by:

v=\frac{c}{n_2}=\frac{3*10^8m/s}{1.55}=1.93*10^8m/s

Charges of 4.0 μC and −6.0 μC are placed at two corners of an equilateral triangle with sides of 0.10 m. What is the magnitude o
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

4.763 × 10⁶ N/C

Explanation:

Let E₁ be the electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge and E₂ be the electric field due to the -6.0 μC charge. At the third corner, E₁ points in the negative x direction and E₂ acts at an angle of 60 to the negative x - direction.

Resolving E₂ into horizontal and vertical components, we have

E₂cos60 as horizontal component and E₂sin60 as vertical component. E₁ has only horizontal component.

Summing the horizontal components we have

E₃ = -E₁ + (-E₂cos60) = -kq₁/r²- kq₂cos60/r²

= -k/r²(q₁ + q₂cos60)

= -k/r²(4 μC + (-6.0 μC)(1/2))

= -k/r²(4 μC - 3.0 μC)

= -k/r²(1 μC)

= -9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(1.0 × 10⁻⁶)/(0.10 m)²

=  -9 × 10⁵ N/C

Summing the vertical components, we have

E₄ = 0 + (-E₂sin60)

= -E₂sin60

= -kq₂sin60/r²

= -k(-6.0 μC)(0.8660)/(0.10 m)²

= -9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(-6.0 × 10⁻⁶)(0.8660)/(0.10 m)²

= 46.77 × 10⁵ N/C

The magnitude of the resultant electric field, E is thus

E = √(E₃² + E₄²) = √[(-9 × 10⁵ N/C)² + (46.77 10⁵ N/C)²) = (√226843.29) × 10⁴

= 476.28  × 10⁴ N/C

= 4.7628 × 10⁶ N/C

≅ 4.763 × 10⁶ N/C

You apply the brakes of your car abruptly and your book starts sliding off the front seat. Three observers sitting in the car ex
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

All the observers are correct.

Explanation:

This is simply a problem of reference frames from which the motion of the book is being viewed by the various observers.

From their various reference frames, they are all correct.

Observer A must be in the inertial reference frame.

<em>Observers who can explain the behavior of the book  and the car by using the relationship between the sum of  the forces and changing velocity are said to be observers in inertial reference frames.</em>

This is clearly shown by what observer A noticed. There was a relative motion between the book and the car as she pointed out, making her to be in an inertial reference frame.

<em>Similarly, observers in inertial reference frames can also explain the changes in velocity of objects  by considering the forces exerted on them by other objects.</em>

This is shown by observer B as he is able to notice how the force of the car affects the velocity of the book.

Observer C is actually in a non-inertial reference frame, as newtons law of force motion relationship are no longer observed. This occurs in the non inertial reference frame.
