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 bicycle rider pushes a 13kg bicycle up a steep hill. the incline is 24 degree and the road is 275m long. the rider pushes the
Digiron [165]

Answer:

A. W = 6875.0 J.

B. W = -14264.6 J.

Explanation:

A. The work done by the rider can be calculated by using the following equation:

W_{r} = |F_{r}|*|d|*cos(\theta_{1})

Where:                

F_{r}: is the force done by the rider = 25 N

d: is the distance = 275 m

θ: is the angle between the applied force and the distance

Since the applied force is in the same direction of the motion, the angle is zero.

W_{r} = |F_{r}|*|d|*cos(0) = 25 N*275 m = 6875.0 J

Hence, the rider does a work of 6875.0 J on the bike.

B. The work done by the force of gravity on the bike is the following:

W_{g} = |F_{g}|*|d|*cos(\theta_{2})  

The force of gravity is given by the weight of the bike.

F_{g} = -mgsin(24)     

And the angle between the force of gravity and the direction of motion is 180°.

W_{g} = |mgsin(24)|*|d|*cos(\theta_{2})  

W_{g} = 13 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*sin(24)*275 m*cos(180) = -14264.6 J  

The minus sign is because the force of gravity is in the opposite direction to the motion direction.

Therefore, the magnitude of the work done by the force of gravity on the bike is 14264.6 J.  

I hope it helps you!

5. Is it likely that light with frequencies higher than ultraviolet was
Vinvika [58]

Answer: YES

Explanation:

If Tia Ana exposes her eyes to light ray in which it frequency is higher than ultraviolet ray, it may result to a gradual eyes issue such as cataracts as the radiation damages the cornea and the lens in front of the eyes.

An electric fan is turned off, and its angular velocity decreases uniformly from 500 rev/min to 200 rev/min in 4.00 s.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

a) -1.25 rev/s² and 23.3 rev

b)  2.67s

Explanation:

a) ωФ_o_z = (500 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 8.333 rev/s

ωФ_Z= (200 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 3.333rev/s

time 't'= 4 s

angular acceleration 'αФ_Z'=?

constant angular acceleration equation is given by,

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

αФ_Z= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z )/t => (3.333-8.333)/4

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

θ-θФ_o = ωФ_o_z t + 1/2αФ_Zt²

      =(8.333)(4) + 1/2 (-1.25)(4)²

      =23.3 rev

b) ωФ_Z=0   (comes to rest)

ωФ_o_z = 3.333 rev/s

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

t= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z)/αФ_Z => (0- 3.333)/-1.25

t= 2.67s
