Answer:

1029 Jkg⁻¹

Explanation:

h = height dropped by the water falling = 105 m

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 ms⁻²

m = mass of water

Using conservation of energy, the internal energy produced is same as the gravitational potential energy lost, hence

Internal energy = Gravitational potential energy

U = mgh \\\frac{U}{m} = gh\\\frac{U}{m} = (9.8) (105)\\\frac{U}{m} = 1029 Jkg^{-1}

A ray of light traveling in air strikes the surface of a liquid. if the angle of incidence is 29.7◦ and the angle of refraction
lana66690 [7]
When light moves from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, the critical angle is the angle above which there is no refracted ray, and it is given by:
\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_r}{n_i} ) (2)
where n_r is the refractive index of the second medium and n_i is the refractive index of the first medium.

We can find the ratio n_r / n_i by using Snell's law:
n_i \sin \theta_i = n_r \sin \theta_r (1)
where
\theta_i is the angle of incidence
\theta_r is the angle of refraction

By using the data of the problem and re-arranging (1), we find
\frac{n_r}{n_i} =  \frac{\sin \theta_i}{\sin \theta_r} = \frac{\sin 16.3^{\circ}}{\sin 29.7^{\circ}} =0.566

and if we use eq.(2) we can now find the value of the critical angle:
\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_r}{n_i} ) = \arcsin (0.566) = 34.5^{\circ}

How will this substance ease the pain?​
erastova [34]

Answer:

There are two main types of OTC pain medicines: acetaminophen (Tylenol) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Aspirin, naproxen (Aleve), and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) are examples of OTC NSAIDs. If OTC medicines don't relieve your pain, your doctor may prescribe something stronger

The multiple reflection of a single sound wave is a/an
ANTONII [103]

A single reflection, like shouting at the side of a mountain and hearing
your voice come back to you, is an 'echo'.

Multiple reflection, like clapping your hands once inside a large room,
is 'reverberation'.
