Answer:

(a) 40.6 degree

Explanation:

When refraction takes place from slab to water, the critical angle is 60 degree.

Use Snell's law

refractive index of water with respect to slab

\mu _{w}^{s}=\frac{Sin60}{Sin90}

\frac{\mu _{w}}{\mu _{s}}=0.866

\frac{1.33}{\mu _{s}}=0.866

μs = 1.536

Now for slab air interface, the critical angle is C.

\mu _{a}^{s}=\frac{SinC}{Sin90}

\frac{\mu _{a}}{\mu _{s}}=\frac{SinC}{Sin90}

1 / 1.536 = Sin C

C = 40.6 degree

A horizontal force of 750 N is needed to overcome the force of static friction between a level floor and a 250-kg crate. What is
loris [4]

Answer:

The acceleration of the crate is 1.82\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 750 N

Mass of the crate, m = 250 kg

The coefficient of friction is 0.12.

We need to find the acceleration of the crate. The net force acting on the crate is given by :

F=ma\\\\F-f=ma

f is frictional force, f=\mu N=\mu mg

F-\mu mg=ma\\\\a=\dfrac{F-\mu mg}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{750-0.12\times 250\times 9.8}{250}\\\\a=1.82\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the crate is 1.82\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

An internal combustion engine does 356 kJ of useful work using 946 kJ of thermal energy from the gasoline consumed in the engine
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The efficiency of this engine is 37.63 %.

Explanation:

Given;

useful output work done by the combustion engine, = 356 kJ

input work, = 946 kJ

The efficiency of the combustion engine is calculated as;

Efficiency = \frac{0utput \ work}{1nput \ work} \times 100\%\\\\Efficiency = \frac{356 \ \times \ 10^3}{946 \ \times \ 10^3} \times 100\%\\\\Efficiency = 37.63 \ \%

Therefore, the efficiency of this engine is 37.63 %.
