Answer

Given,

refractive index of film, n = 1.6

refractive index of air, n' = 1

angle of incidence, i = 35°

angle of refraction, r = ?

Using Snell's law

n' sin i = n sin r

1 x sin 35° = 1.6 x sin  r

 r = 21°

Angle of refraction is equal to 21°.

Now,

distance at which refractive angle comes out

d = 2.5 mm

α be the angle with horizontal surface and incident ray.

α = 90°-21° = 69°

t be the thickness of the film.

So,

tan \alpha = \dfrac{t}{d/2}

tan 61^0 = \dfrac{t}{2.5/2}

t = 2.26 mm

Hence, the thickness of the film is equal to 2.26 mm.

a bal is launched upward with a velocity of v0 from the edge of a cliff of height D. it reaches a maximum height of H above its
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

D/H =15

Explanation:

  • We can find first the peak height H, taking into consideration, that at the maximum height, the ball will reach momentarily to a stop.
  • At this point, we can find the value of H, applying the following kinematic equation:

       v_{f} ^{2} -v_{0} ^{2} = 2* g* H (1)

  • If vf=0, if we assume that the positive direction is upwards, we can find the value of H as follows:

       H = \frac{v_{0} ^{2} }{2*g} (2)

  • We can use the same equation, to find the value of D, as follows:

        v_{f} ^{2} -v_{1} ^{2} = 2* g* D (3)

  • In order to find v₁, we can use the same kinematic equation that we used to get H, but now, we know that v₀ = 0.
  • When we replace these values in (1), we find that  v₁ = -v₀.
  • Replacing in (3), we have:

        (4*v_{0})^{2} - (-v_{0}) ^{2}  = 2* g* D\\ \\ 15*v_{0}^{2}  = 2*g*D

  • Solving for  D:

       D = \frac{15*v_{0} ^{2} }{2*g}

  • From (2) we know that H can be expressed as follows:

       H = \frac{v_{0} ^{2} }{2*g}

  • ⇒ D = 15 * H

        \frac{D}{H} = 15
