Physics

Juliette [100K]3 years ago

The Richter scale is how the power of earthquakes are measured. The Richter scale is measured logarithmically, so a 5.0 earth quake is actually 10 times more powerful than a 4.0, and 100 times stronger than a 3.0 earthquake.

Assume a beam of light hits the boundary separating medium 1, with index of refraction n1 and medium 2, with index of refraction
Reptile [31]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

Given,

Refractive index of medium 1 = n₁

Refractive index of medium 2 = n₂

For total internal reflection to take place light should move from denser medium to the rarer medium.

Here Total internal reflection take place at the boundary of medium 1 and medium 2 so, the refractive index of medium 1 is more than medium 2

 n₁ > n₂

The correct answer is option C

If a steel containing 1.88 wt%C is cooled relatively slowly to room temperature, what is the expected weight fraction of pearlit
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer is %pearlite = 0.06%

Explanation:

according to the exercise we have that the percentage is 1.88% C, therefore, the percentage of perlite is equal to:

%pearlite = (B*C)/(A*C) = (2-1.88)/(2-0) = 0.06%

The percentage of cementite is equal to:

%cementite = (1.88-0)/(2-0) = 0.94%
