Given Information:
Index of refraction of glass = n₂ = 1.42
Angle of reflection = θ₁
Angle of refraction in terms of angle of reflection = θ₂ = 0.5θ₁
Required Information:
Angle of refraction = θ₂ = ?
Answer:
Angle of refraction = θ₂ = 44.76°
Explanation:
We know from the Snell's law that
n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂
Where n₁ is index of refraction of air and n₂ is index of refraction of glass, θ₁ is the angle of reflection and θ₂ is the angle of refraction.
Assuming n₁ = 1
1*sinθ₁ = 1.42*sinθ₂
since θ₂ = 0.5θ₁
1*sinθ₁ = 1.42*sin0.5θ₁
1/1.42 = sin0.5θ₁/sinθ₁
sin⁻¹(1/1.42) = sin⁻¹(sin0.5θ₁/sinθ₁)
44.76° = 0.5θ₁
θ₁ = 44.76°/0.5
θ₁ = 89.52°
So the angle of refraction is
θ₂ = 0.5(89.52°)
θ₂ = 44.76°
Answer:
306.12N/m^2
Explanation:
Mass = 30 kg
g = 9.8m/s2
F = mg
F = 30 x 9.8
F = 294N
L = 0.98m
Since the stilts is square, then the area is L^2
A = L^2
A = 0.98^2
A = 0.9604m^2
P =?
P = F/A
P = 294/0.9604
P = 306.12N/m^2
The pressure exerted by the man is 306.12N/m^2
Answer:
ML2T-2
Explanation:
Work= Force × displacement
=>
work= [MLT^-2] [L]
W= [ML2T-2]
D. Travels slower in glass than in air..bends away from normal
Answer:
Suppose the micrometeoroid weighed 1 g = .001 kg
Suppose also the spacecraft were moving at 18,000 mph (1.5 hrs per rev)
Usually, the smaller particle would be moving but for simplicity suppose that it were stationary wrt the ground
v = 18000 miles / hr * 1500 m/mile / 3600 sec/hr = 7500 m/s
KE = 1/2 * .001 kg * (7500 m)^2 = 28,125 Joules
One can see that 28000 Joules could be damaging amount of energy
