In order to solve this problem, there are two equations that you need to know to solve this problem and pretty much all of kinematics. The first is that d=0.5at^2 (d=vertical distance, a=acceleration due to gravity and t=time). The second is vf-vi=at (vf=final velocity, vi=initial velocity, a=acceleration due to gravity, t=time). So to find the time that the ball traveled, isolate the t-variable from the d=0.5at^2. Isolate the t and the equation now becomes \sqrt{(2d)/a}. Solving the equation where d=8 and a=9.8 makes the time \sqrt{(2*8)/9.8}=1.355 seconds. With the second equation, the vi=0 m/s, the vf is unknown, a=9.8 m/s^2 and t=1.355 sec. Substitute all these values into the equation vf-vi=at, this makes it vf-0=9.8(1.355). This means that the vf=13.28 m/s.

Answer:

The answer is 12.5 m/s

v=the square root of 2 x(gh)

or v = the square root of 2 x (9.8 x 8)

Vsevolod [243]

Answer: the index of refraction of material X will be 1.09 and the angle the light makes with the normal in the air is 81.25°.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know the Snell's law.

<h3>What is Snell's law of refraction? Using this, how to solve the problem?</h3>
  • The Snell's law for refraction can be written as,

                      \frac{sin (i)}{sin(r)} =\frac{n_r}{n_i}

where, i is the incident angle, r is the refracted angle, n is the refractive index.

  • As we know that the refractive index of water is 1.33
  • For the first case, incident angle from the picture is 65°, and the refracted angle is 48°. Thus, the refractive index of the medium X will be,

                           \frac{sin 65}{sin48} =\frac{n_w}{n_X} \\n_X=\frac{1.33*sin48}{sin65} =1.09\\

  • In the second case, incident angle is 48° and we have to find the refracted angle r for the air.
  • As we know that the refractive index of air is 1.
  • Thus, the refracted angle will be,

                         \frac{sin 48}{sin r}=\frac{1}{1.33} \\\\ sin(r)=\frac{1.33*sin 48}{1}=0.988\\\\r=sin^{-1}(0.988)=81.25 degrees.

Thus, we can conclude that, the index of refraction of material X will be 1.09 and the angle the light makes with the normal in the air is 81.25°.

likoan [24]

The formula relating acceleration and angular velocity is:

a = ω^2 r

where a is acceleration, ω is angular velocity and r is radius

But the angular velocity ω is constant all throughout the disk therefore:

a1 / r1 = a2 / r2

 

So at points:

<span>r1 = 0.0130 m     -> a1 = 393 m/s^2</span>

<span>r2 = 0.0884 m     -> a2 = ?</span>

 

393 / 0.0130 = a2 / 0.0884

<span>a2 = 2,672.4 m/s^2</span>
