Answer:
1.414
Explanation:
Snell's law states:
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂
where n is the index of refraction and θ is the angle of incidence (relative to the normal).
The index of refraction of air is approximately 1. So:
1 sin 45° = n sin 30°
n = sin 45° / sin 30°
n = 1.414
Round as needed.
Answer:
sorry about the other person but its b
Explanation:
Answer:
a) K = 2/3 π G m ρ R₁³ / R₂
, b) U = - G m M / r
Explanation:
The law of universal gravitation is
F = G m M / r²
Part A
Let's use Newton's second law
F = m a
The acceleration is centripetal
a = v² / R₂
G m M / R₂² = m v² / R₂
v² = G M / R₂
They give us the density of the planet
ρ = M / V
V = 4/3 π R₁³
M = ρ V
M = ρ 4/3 π R₁³
v² = 4/3 π G ρ R₁³ / R₂
K = ½ m v²
K = ½ m (4/3 π G ρ R₁³ / R₂)
K = 2/3 π G m ρ R₁³ / R₂
Part B
Potential energy and strength are related
F = - dU / dr
∫ dU = - ∫ F. dr
The force was directed towards the center and the vector r outwards therefore there is an angle of 180º between the two cos 180 = -1
U- U₀ = G m M ∫ dr / r²
U - U₀ = G m M (- r⁻¹)
We evaluate for
U - U₀ = -G m M (1 / - 1 /)
They indicate that for ri = ∞ U₀ = 0
U = - G m M / r
Wavelength of the water wave is 8 m
Explanation:
- Wavelength measures the distance between two successive crests or troughs of the wave. It is given by the following equation
λ = v/f, where f is the frequency, v is the velocity of the wave
Here, v = 20 m/s and f = 2.5 Hz
⇒ λ = 20/2.5
= 8 m
