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

A solid sphere of radius 40.0cm has a total positive charge of 26.0μC uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Calculate the
Rudiy27

The magnitude of the electric field for 60 cm is 6.49 × 10^5 N/C

R(radius of the solid sphere)=(60cm)( 1m /100cm)=0.6m

Q\;(\text{total charge of the solid sphere})=(26\;\mathrm{\mu C})\left(\dfrac{1\;\mathrm{C}}{10^6\;\mathrm{\mu C}} \right)={26\times 10^{-6}\;\mathrm{C}}

Since the Gaussian sphere of radius r>R encloses all the charge of the sphere similar to the situation in part (c), we can use Equation (6) to find the magnitude of the electric field:

E=\dfrac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_0 r^2}

Substitute numerical values:

E&=\dfrac{24\times 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.8542\times 10^{-12})(0.6)}\\ &={6.49\times 10^5\;\mathrm{N/C}\;\text{directed radially outward}}}

The spherical Gaussian surface is chosen so that it is concentric with the charge distribution.

As an example, consider a charged spherical shell S of negligible thickness, with a uniformly distributed charge Q and radius R. We can use Gauss's law to find the magnitude of the resultant electric field E at a distance r from the center of the charged shell. It is immediately apparent that for a spherical Gaussian surface of radius r < R the enclosed charge is zero: hence the net flux is zero and the magnitude of the electric field on the Gaussian surface is also 0 (by letting QA = 0 in Gauss's law, where QA is the charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface).

Which of the following objects cannot make a shadow? Broken piece of glass from a window/wooden pane of the same window? Explain
Lorico [155]

Answer:

broken pieces of glass from a window can't form a shadow.

Explanation:

the reason is that shadow is formed only when light rays hits an opaque object, which doesn't let light to pass through it, but glass is a transparent object, hence light rays passes through it forming no shadow..

The cheetah can maintain its maximum speed for only 7.5 s. What is the minimum distance the gazelle must be ahead of the cheetah
amm1812

Basically the cheetah is running 31.5km/h faster than the gazelle. So to determone how long it will take to cover 9mm at that speed, you have to a lot of work. If you skip all of that work, the answer is 1.60m seconds
