Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Refractive index of ice = sini / sin r where i is angle of incidence and r is angle of refraction

angle of incidence = 90 - 45 = 45

angle of refraction = 30

refractive index of ice   μ  = sin 45 / sin 30

= 2/ √2

μ  = √2 = 1.414

μ  = 1 / sin C where C is critical angle for ice - air interface

sinC = 1 / μ

= 1 / 1.414

= .70

C = 44 .42° .

b )

real depth / apparent depth = refractive index

2 / apparent depth = 1.414

apparent depth = 2 / 1.414

= 1.414 cm .

Electrons in a particle beam each have a kinetic energy of 4.0 × 10 −17 J. What is the magnitude of the electric field that will
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

-833.3 N/C

Explanation:

Kinetic energy, K, in terms of electric field, E, is given as:

K = qEr

q = charge = e = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹C

E = Electric field

r = distance = 0.3m

The electric field can be gotten by making E subject of formula:

E = K/(qr)

The electeic field needed to stop the electrons must be equal in magnitude to the electric field carried by these electrons:

E = (4.0 × 10⁻¹⁷)/(-1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ * 0.3)

E = -833.3 N/C

This is the electric field needed to stop the electrons.

The negative sign means that the electric field must be in a direction opposite to the motion of the electrons.

A projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of 60o above the horizontal. At what point in its trajectory does it have t
Elodia [21]

Answer:

It's constant everywhere in its trajectory.

Explanation:

the projectile was launched with an initial velocity, the only acceleration that is affecting the projectile's velocity is gravity.

The acceleration of gravity is practically equal everywhere on earth, so during its trajectory, we have to take into consideration only the acceleration because of gravity.

This is only correct because the projectile was launched with an initial velocity and it's not accelerating from rest and then falls.
