To answer that question, we don't care what the highest and lowest
levels of the wave are, or how far apart they are. We only need to be
able to identify the highest point on the wave, and keep track of how
often those pass by us.
You said it takes 4 seconds for a complete wave to pass by.
Through the sheer power of intellect, I'm able to take that information
and calculate that 1/4 of the wave passes by in 1 second.
There's your frequency . . . 1/4 per second, or 0.25 Hz.
Answer:
distance between the dime and the mirror, u = 0.30 m
Given:
Radius of curvature, r = 0.40 m
magnification, m = - 2 (since,inverted image)
Solution:
Focal length is half the radius of curvature, f = 
f = 
Now,
m = - 
- 2 = -
= 2 (2)
Now, by lens maker formula:


v =
(3)
From eqn (2):
v = 2u
put v = 2u in eqn (3):
2u = 
2 = 
2(u - 0.20) = 0.20
u = 0.30 m
When it comes to optics, Snell's law is the basic formula to be used. If you notice, when light hits the water, the light does not travel in the same direction. After, it hits the water, it changes in angle. Light becomes refracted. This is observed when your hands tend to become bigger if you place it underwater. The formula for Snell's Law is
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂sin θ₂, where n is the index of refraction. This depends on the type of medium. For example, for air, n=1. The parameters θ₁ is the angle of incidence, and θ₂ is the angle of refraction. Critical angle is the incident angle needed so that the refract angle is 90°. So, modifying the equation:
n₁ sin θcrit = n₂sin 90°, since sin 90°=1,
sin θcrit = n₂/n₁
θcrit = sin ⁻¹ (n₂/n₁)
Since liquid comes first before glass, n₁=1.75 and n₂=1.52. Substituting,
θcrit = sin ⁻¹ (1.52/1.75)
θcrit = 60.29°
Answer:
was is carl sagan?
Explanation:
please forgive me if im wrong :(
Answer:
It is found that W1 - W2 loss in weight of solid when immersed in water is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the body. This verifies Archimedes' principle.
