A submarine periscope uses two totally reflecting 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection on the sides adjacent to the 45

degree angles. Explain why the periscope will no longer work if it springs a leak and the bottom prism is covered with water. Note: The index of refraction for water is 1.33. The index of refraction for glass is 1.52

Answer

Given,

Periscope uses 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection adjacent to 45°.

refractive index of water, n_a = 1.33

refractive index of glass, n_g = 1.52

When the light enters the water, water will act as a lens and when we see the object from the periscope the object shown is farther than the usual distance.

With what tension must a rope with length 3.00 mm and mass 0.105 kgkg be stretched for transverse waves of frequency 40.0 HzHz t
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

the tension of the rope is 34.95 N

Explanation:

Given;

length of the rope, L = 3 m

mass of the rope, m = 0.105 kg

frequency of the wave, f = 40 Hz

wavelength of the wave, λ = 0.79 m

Let the tension of the rope = T

The speed of the wave is given as;

v = f\lambda = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\where;\\\\\mu \ is \ mass \ per \ unit \ length\\\\\mu  = \frac{0.105}{3} = 0.035 \ kg/m\\\\v = f\lambda = 40 \times 0.79 = 31.6 \ m/s\\\\v =  \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\v^2 = \frac{T}{\mu} \\\\T = v^2 \mu\\\\T = (31.6^2)(0.035)\\\\T = 34.95 \ N

Therefore, the tension of the rope is 34.95 N

Một đoạn mạch gồm R1=8 ôm;R2=12 ôm.biết R1 nối tiếp với đoạn mạch gồm R2 song song với R3; R3=1/2 R2 cường độ dòng điện chạy qua
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

a.

b. R3= 1/2R2=6 ôm

R12= R1+R2=20 ôm

Rtđ=R12.R3/R12+R3= 4,62 ôm

c. U= I.Rtđ = 2.4,62=9,23 V

I1=I2= 9,23/20= 0,4615 A

I3= 2-0,4615=1,5385 A
