Light that enters the new medium <em>perpendicular to the surface</em> keeps sailing straight through the new medium unrefracted (in the same direction).
Perpendicular to the surface is the "normal" to the surface. So the angle of incidence (angle between the laser and the normal) is zero, and the law of refraction (just like the law of reflection) predicts an angle of zero between the normal and the refracted (or the reflected) beam.
Moral of the story: If you want your laser to keep going in the same direction after it enters the water, or to bounce back in the same direction it came from when it hits the mirror, then shoot it <em>straight on</em> to the surface, perpendicular to it.
Answer:
Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.
The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.
Answer:
26.5 minutes
Explanation:
When the airplane is flying due West from Denver to Reno, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would reduce the ground speed by 80 km/h.
Its Denver to Reno ground speed is 900 - 80 = 720 km/h
The time it takes to cover 1200km at this speed is 1200 / 720 = 1.67 hours
On the other hand, when it returns from Reno to Denver in the due-East direction, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would add to the ground speed by 80 km/h
Its Reno to Denver ground speed is 900 + 80 = 980 km/h
The time it takes to cover 1200 km at this speed is 1200 / 980 = 1.22 hours
The difference it flight time would be 1.67 - 1.22 = 0.44 hours or 26.5 minutes
Answer:
The average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V
Explanation:
Given;
diameter of the wire, d = 11.2 cm = 0.112 m
initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.53 T
final magnetic field, B₂ = 0.24 T
time of change in magnetic field, t = 0.1 s
The induced emf in the coil is calculated as;
E = A(dB)/dt
where;
A is area of the coil = πr²
r is the radius of the wire coil = 0.112m / 2 = 0.056 m
A = π(0.056)²
A = 0.00985 m²
E = -0.00985(B₂-B₁)/t
E = 0.00985(B₁-B₂)/t
E = 0.00985(0.53 - 0.24)/0.1
E = 0.00985 (0.29)/ 0.1
E = 0.0286 V
Therefore, the average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V
