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 .

A uniform log of length L is inclined 30° from the horizontal when supported by a frictionless rock located 0.6L from its left e
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x = 0.974 L

Explanation:

given,

length of inclination of log = 30°

mass of log = 200 Kg

rock is located at = 0.6 L

L is the length of the log

mass of engineer = 53.5 Kg

let x be the distance from left at which log is horizontal.

For log to be horizontal system should be in equilibrium

 ∑ M = 0

mass of the log will be concentrated at the center  

distance of rock from CM of log = 0.1 L

now,

∑ M = 0

m_{log} g \times 0.1 L = m_{engineer} g \times (x - 0.6 L)

200 \times 0.1 L = 53.5 \times (x - 0.6 L)

0.374 L =x - 0.6 L

       x = 0.974 L

hence, distance of the engineer from the left side is equal to x = 0.974 L

A car approaches you at a constant speed, sounding its horn, and you hear a frequency of 76 Hz. After the car goes by, you hear
Talja [164]

Answer:

70.07 Hz

Explanation:

Since the sound is moving away from the observer then

f_o = f_s\frac {(v+vs)}{v} and f_o = f_s\frac {(v-vs)}{v} when moving towards observer

With f_o of 76 then taking speed in air as 343 m/s we have

76 = f_s\times\frac {(343-vs)}{343}

f_s=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

Similarly, with f_o of 65 we have

65 = f_s\times\frac {(343+vs)}{343}\\f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}

Now

f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

v_s=27.76 m/s

Substituting the above into  any of the first two equations then we obtain

f_s=70.07 Hz
