Answer:
particle's potential energy = 70J
Explanation:
From conservation of energy; K1 + Ue1 = K2 + Ue2
where K1 and K2 are the kinetic energies at two positions and Ue1 and Uue2 are the electrical potential energies at two positions.
k1 = 10J, Ue1 = 100J
K2 = 40J
substitute into K1 + Ue1 = K2 + Ue2
Ue2 = K1 + Ue1 - K2
= 10 +100 - 40
Ue2 = 70J
Answer:
A) d = 11.8m
B) d = 4.293 m
Explanation:
A) We are told that the angle of incidence;θ_i = 70°.
Now, if refraction doesn't occur, the angle of the light continues to be 70° in the water relative to the normal. Thus;
tan 70° = d/4.3m
Where d is the distance from point B at which the laser beam would strike the lakebottom.
So,d = 4.3*tan70
d = 11.8m
B) Since the light is moving from air (n1=1.00) to water (n2=1.33), we can use Snell's law to find the angle of refraction(θ_r)
So,
n1*sinθ_i = n2*sinθ_r
Thus; sinθ_r = (n1*sinθ_i)/n2
sinθ_r = (1 * sin70)/1.33
sinθ_r = 0.7065
θ_r = sin^(-1)0.7065
θ_r = 44.95°
Thus; xonsidering refraction, distance from point B at which the laser beam strikes the lake-bottom is calculated from;
d = 4.3 tan44.95
d = 4.293 m
Answer:
Explanation:
Ruler. A steel ruler aids the measurement and layout of straight lines. The ruler, also called "straightedge" or "straight-edged ruler," is a long, thin strip of wood, metal or plastic marked with increments of measurement.
Measuring Tape. The modern measuring tape's roughly palm-sized casing contains a coiled strip of metal marked with increments of measurement. The metal strip, called "tape," attaches to a spring which automatically retracts the tape into the casing following use.
Walking Tape Measure. The walking tape measure, also called "surveyor's measure," records the distance traveled by a wheel. An operator pushes the measure's wheel, similar to a bicycle wheel, by a handle as an attached ticker box displays feet or meters in the same format as a car's odometer.
Laser Measure. The laser measure offers point and shoot distance measurement. In its most basic form, a laser measure is a hand-held electronic device with a digital display.
