The drawings show two examples in which a ray of light is refracted at the interface between two liquids. In each example the in

cident ray is in liquid
A and strikes the interface at the same angle of incidence. In one case the ray is refracted into liquid
B, and in the other it is refracted into liquid
C. The dashed lines denote the normals to the interfaces.
D.Rank the indices of refraction of the three liquids in descending order (largest first).

Answer:

Possible options:

A. nA, nC, nB

B. nA, nB, nC

C. nC, nB, nA

D. nC, nA, nB

E. nB, nA, nC

Answer is D

Explanation:

When the light is refracted into liquid B it is bent away from the normal, so that nA > nB. When the light is refracted into liquid C it is bent toward the normal, so that nC > nA. Therefore, we conclude that nC > nA > nB

A sound source is located somewhere along the x-axis. Experiments show that the same wave front simultaneously reaches listeners
guapka [62]

Answer:

a)   x₀ = - 2 m  , b)     y = 4.47 m

Explanation:

A wave travels in the middle with constant speed, let's use the equation of uniform motion

    v = d / t

    t = d / v

The distance to the first listeners, see attached

    d₁ = x₀-x

     t = (x₀ +7) / v

The distance to the second listener

    d₂ = x - x₀

     t = (+ 3- x₀) / v

As the wave arrives at the same time, we can equal the two equations

     (x₀ +7) / v = (3 -x₀) / v

      x₀ + 7 = 3 - x₀

      2 x₀ = 3 - 7

      x₀ = -4/2

      x₀ = - 2 m

b) The time it takes for the wave to reach the listeners of the x-axis, where the speed of sound is 340 m / s

          t = 5/340

          t = 0.0147 s

Let's look for the distance the wave travels for the listener axis and

       v = d₃ / t

       d₃ = v.t

       d₃ = 340 * 0.0147

       d₃ = 5 m

For the distance component we use the Pythagorean triangle

      d₃² = x₀² + y²

      y² = d₃² - x₀²

     y = √ (d₃² -4)

      y = √ (5² -4)

     y = 4.47 m

If the mass of a 1.8 g paperclip was able to be completely converted to energy, how much energy would you obtain?
Anton [14]

Answer:

E=1.62\times 10^{14}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the paperclip, m = 1.8 g = 0.0018 kg

We need to find the energy obtained. The relation between mass and energy is given by :

E=mc^2

Where

c is the speed of light

So,

E=0.0018\times (3\times 10^8)^2\\\\E=1.62\times 10^{14}\ J

So, the energy obtained is 1.62\times 10^{14}\ J.
