Mazyrski [523]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

0.02

Explanation:

Force, F=\mu_k N where N is normal reaction and coefficient of kinetic friction is \mu_k. Also, N is equivalent to mg ie N=mg where m is mass of an object and g is acceleration due to gravity. Making \muthe subject of the formula then

\mu_k=\frac {F}{mg}

Substituting F with 2 N, m with 10 kg and g with 9.81 then

\mu_k=\frac {2}{10\times 9.81}=0.0203873598369\approx 0.02

When light propagates through two adjacent materials that have different optical properties, some interesting phenomena occur at
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

First, the different indices of refraction must be taken into account (in different media): for example, the refractive index of light in a vacuum is 1 (since vacuum = c).  The value of the refractive index of the medium is a measure of its "optical density":  Light spreads at maximum speed in a vacuum but slower in others  transparent media; therefore in all of them n> 1. Examples of typical values ​​of  are those of air (1,0003), water (1.33), glass (1.46 - 1.66) or diamond (2.42).

The refractive index has a maximum value and a minimum value, which we can calculate the minimum value by means of the following explanation:

The limit or minimum angle, α lim, is defined as the angle of refraction from which  the refracted ray disappears and all the light is reflected. As in the maximum value of  angle of refraction, from which everything is reflected, is βmax = 90º, we can  know the limit angle (the minimum angle that we would have to have to know the minimum index of refraction) by Snell's law:

 βmax = 90º ⇒ n 1x sin α (lim) = n 2 ⇒ sin α lim = n 2 / n 1

Explanation:

When a light ray strikes the separation surface between two media  different, the incident beam is divided into three: the most intense penetrates the second  half forming the refracted ray, another is reflected on the surface and the third is  breaks down into numerous weak beams emerging from the point of incidence in  all directions, forming a set of stray light beams.

Burka [1]

Answer:

a) v(2) = 3.9\,\frac{m}{s}, b) v(4) = -15.7\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) The equation for vertical velocity is obtained by deriving the function with respect to time:

v(t) = 23.5 -9.8\cdot t

The velocities at given instants are, respectivelly:

v(2) = 3.9\,\frac{m}{s}

v(4) = -15.7\,\frac{m}{s}

Rex decides to launch a priceless vase into the air at a 90-degree angle. The initial velocity vase is +7.0 m/s. Dylan claims th
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

D. Dylan is incorrect because a 90-degree launch angle results in the largest vertical range​

Explanation:

Projectile is the motion of an object thrown into space. When an object is thrown into space, the only force which acts on it is the acceleration due to gravity.

An object thrown into space would reach maximum height (vertical range) if it is launched at an angle of 90 degrees. For maximum horizontal range, the object needs to be launched at an angle of 45 degrees.

Therefore Dylan is incorrect because a 90-degree launch angle results in the largest vertical range​

The north pole of a bar magnet is rapidly introduced into a solenoid at one end (say A). Which of the following statements corre
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The correct option is;

(b) The end A of the solenoid behaves like a north pole

Explanation:

According to Lenz's law we have that the induced emf direction in the solenoid due to the rapid introduction of the bar magnet will be such that the electric current induced will have a resultant magnet field that will  oppose to the movement of the north pole of the bar magnet that resulted in the magnetic field

Therefore, the opposing magnetic pole to the north pole of a magnet is a north pole and the solenoid end A will act like the north pole.
