Answer:
Explanation:
The index of refraction is equal to the speed of light c in vacuum divided by its speed v in a substance, or . For our case we want to use
, which for our values is equal to:
Which we will express with 3 significant figures (since a product or quotient must contain the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the <em>least</em> number of significant figures):
Answer:
F = 33.12 N
Explanation:
given,
first force = 15 N is oriented at 58.0° counterclockwise
second force = (−19.0 N,18.5 N)
x-component of first force = 15 cos 58.0° = 7.95 N
y-component of second force = 15 sin 58.0° = 12.72 N
second component
now,
F netx = 7.95 - 19 = -11.05 N
F nety = 12.72 + 18.5 = 31.22 N
F = 33.12 N
θ = -70.51°
Answer:
Explanation:
The electric potential energy is the potential energy that results from the Coulomb force and is associated with the configuration of two or more charges. For an electron in the presence of an electric field produced by a proton, the electric potential energy is defined as:
where is the electron charge,
is the proton charge, r is the separation distance between the charges and k is the coulomb constant.
Knowing this, we can calculate how much electric potential energy was lost:
