:What will be the value of the refractive index of the medium? Critical angle of that medium is 30 degree

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Let the second medium be air (n₁=1)

The refractive index n₂ of the medium where first medium is air is found (a)

(a) n₂ = 2

Explanation:

Critical angle can be defined as the angle of incidence that provides the angle of refraction of 90°.

Refractive index of a medium can be defined as a number that describes that how fast a light will travel through that medium.

Critical angle and Refractive index are related by:

$\theta_{critical}= sin^{-1}(\frac{n_1}{n_2})$

$sin \theta_{critical}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}$

To find refractive index of medium with respect to air, substitute n₁=1 (Refractive index of air is 1)

Also θ(critical)=30°

Find n₂ :

$sin30= \frac{1}{n_2}\\0.5=\frac{1}{n_2}\\n_2=\frac{1}{0.5}\\n_2=2$

A rough estimate of the radius of a nucleus is provided by the formula r 5 kA1/3, where k is approximately 1.3 × 10213 cm and A

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Density of 127 I = $\rm 1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.$

Also, $\rm Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.$

Explanation:

Given, the radius of a nucleus is given as

$\rm r=kA^{1/3}$ .

where,

$\rm k = 1.3\times 10^{-13} cm.$

A is the mass number of the nucleus.

The density of the nucleus is defined as the mass of the nucleus M per unit volume V.

$\rm \rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi r^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi (kA^{1/3})^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi k^3A}.$

For the nucleus 127 I,

Mass, M = $\rm 2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g.$

Mass number, A = 127.

Therefore, the density of the 127 I nucleus is given by

$\rm \rho = \dfrac{2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g}{\dfrac 43 \times \pi \times (1.3\times 10^{-13})^3\times 127}=1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.$

On comparing with the density of the solid iodine,

$\rm \dfrac{Density\ of\ ^{127}I}{Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine}=\dfrac{1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3}{4.93\ g/cm^3}=3.63\times 10^{13}.\\\\\Rightarrow Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.$
