Given a block of glass that is semi-circular, a laser pointer, protractor/ruler, and index card, design your own experiment to o

bserve and measure total internal reflection. Describe how you would shine the laser onto the glass block, what angles you would measure and how you would determine the critical angle from your measurements.

Answer:

Explanation:

Critical angle is angle of incidence at which the reflected ray is perpendicular to the normal of the plane.

Apply snell's law,

    ni sin∅i = nr sin ∅r

Here,ni & nr are reflective indices of incident and refracted media ,∅i is angle of incidence and ∅r is angle of refraction

In this case,the light refracted at interface of glass -air medium

ni=(1.52), nr =1.00(for air),∅r=90° and ∅i =∅c(from the definition of critical angle),

(1.52)sin∅c = (1.00)sin 90°

solve the equation for ∅c

∅c=sin⁻¹{(1.00)sin 90° /1.52}

=41.1°

thus,the critical angle is 41.1° .The rays which are incident greater than this angle,would reflect back into the same glass medium(total internal reelection)

Answer:

we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

Explanation:

To design the experiment of measuring the critical angle, we describe the phenomenon, when the light passes from a medium with a higher refractive index to one with a lower index, it separates from the normal one and the Critical Angle is defined as the Angle for which the refraction occurs at 90º

            n₂ sin θ₂ = n₁ sin 90

           n₁ / n₂ = sin θ₂

As we can see, we have to measure the angle with which the laser touches the exit surface of the glass block.

Design of the experiment:

    We place the glass block on the ramp and at the top we hit the conveyor for half the angle, we climb the block on the ramp and see that the angle of incidence of lightning on the exit face changes, part of the beam comes out of the glass , we see it by dispersion in the particles of dirty in the air; Maybe the conveyor or the laser should be moved slightly so that the beam touches the point of origin on the conveyor.

   

   When we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

Blood contains positive and negative ions and therefore is aconductor. A blood vessel, therefore, can be viewed as anelectrical
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

<h2>Magnetic field required for the given induced EMF is 1.41 T</h2>

Explanation:

Potential difference across the blood vessel is given as

E = vBd

here we know that the speed is given as

v = 14.8 cm/s

d = 4.80 mm

E = 1 mV

now we have

1 \times 10^{-3} = (14.8 \times 10^{-2})B(4.80 \times 10^{-3})

B = 1.41 T

Now volume flow rate of the blood is given as

Q = Av

Q = \frac{\pi d^2v}{4}

from above equation we have

v = \frac{E}{Bd}

Now we have

Q = \frac{\pi d^2\frac{E}{Bd}}{4}

Q = \frac{\pi E d}{4B}

How many lenses with different focal lengths can be obtained by combining two surfaces whose radii of curvature are 4.00 cm and
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The lenses with different focal length are four.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of curvature R₁= 4

Radius of curvature R₂ = 8

We know ,

Refractive index of glass = 1.6

When, R₁= 4, R₂ = 8

We need to calculate the focal length of the lens

Using formula of focal length

\dfrac{1}{f}=(n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{9}{40}

f=4.44\ cm

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = 8

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}+\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{3}{40}

f=-13.33\ cm

When , R₁= 4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{3}{40}

f=13.33\ cm

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}-\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{9}{40}

f=-4.44\ cm

Hence, The lenses with different focal length are four.

An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.200 rev/s . The magnitude
blagie [28]

Answer:

(A). the angular velocity of fan is 0.380 rev/s.

(B). The number of revolution is 0.059 rad.

(C). The tangential speed of the blade is 0.907 m/s.

(D). The tangential acceleration of the blade is 2.10 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity = 0.200 rev/s

Angular acceleration = 0.883 rev/s²

Diameter = 0.760 m

Time = 0.204 s

(A). We need to calculate the angular velocity of fan

Using equation of angular motion

\omega_{f}=\omega_{i}+\alpha t

Put the value into the formula

\omega_{f}=0.200+0.883\times0.204

\omega_{f}=0.380\ rev/s

(B). We need to calculate the number of revolution

Using formula of angular displacement

\theta=\omega_{i}t+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

Put the value into the formula

\theta=0.200\times0.204+\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.883\times(0.204)^2

\theta=0.059\ rad

(C). We need to calculate the tangential speed of the blade

Using formula of speed

v=\dfrac{d}{2}\omega_{f}

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{0.760}{2}\times0.380\times2\pi

v=0.907\ m/s

(D). We need to calculate the tangential acceleration of the blade

Using formula of tangential acceleration

a_{t}=\alpha r

Put the value into the formula

a_{t}=0.883\times0.38\times2\pi

a_{t}=2.10\ m/s^2

Hence, (A). the angular velocity of fan is 0.380 rev/s.

(B). The number of revolution is 0.059 rad.

(C). The tangential speed of the blade is 0.907 m/s.

(D). The tangential acceleration of the blade is 2.10 m/s²
