Answer:

θ₁ = 35.32°

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of medium 1 = n₁ = 1.75

refractive index of medium 2 = n₂ = 1.24

condition to describe the refracted angle

 \theta_{refracted} + \theta_{reflected}=90^0

 \theta_2 = 90^0-\theta_1...(1)

Using Snell's Law

   n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

θ₁ , θ₂ is the angle of incidence and refractive index

n₁. n₂ is the refractive index medium 1 and medium 2

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin θ₂

From equation (1)

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin (90-θ₁)

   1.75 sin θ₁ = 1.24 cos θ₁

      tan θ₁ = 0.708

         θ₁ = 35.32°

Hence, angle of incidence is equal to θ₁ = 35.32°

A block of mass m=1kg sliding along a rough horizontal surface is traveling at a speed v0=2m/s when it strikes a massless spring
topjm [15]

Here we can use the work energy theorem

W_f + W_s = K_f - K_i

here we know that

K_f = 0

as it come to rest finally

K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

K_i = \frac{1}{2}\times 1\times 2^2

K_i = 2 J

now work done by friction force will be given as

W_f = - F_f \times d = -\mu mg d

W_f = - \mu(1)(9.8)(0.10) = - 0.98\mu

Work done by spring force is given as

W_s = \frac{1}{2}k(x_i^2 - x_f^2)

W_s = \frac{1}{2}(10)( 0 - 0.10^2)

W_s = -0.05 J

so now plug in all data above

- 0.05 - \mu(0.98) = 0 - 2

\mu = 1.99

so above is the friction coefficient

<h3>Question 1</h3>

Answer

option C) velocity

Explanation

acceleration =  Δv ÷ Δt

<h3>Question 2</h3>

Answer

option C) m/s²

Explanation

Δv ÷ Δt

= m/s ÷ s

= m/s x 1/s

= m/s²

<h3>Question 3</h3>

Answer

option B) velocity has both direction and speed.

That is why velocity can be negative but speed can not and velocity is rate of change of displacement where as speed is rate of change of distance.
