<h2>The elastic potential energy gained by the rubber band is the work done by you in elongating it. Positive work is done on the rubber band, so it gains energy. While work is done by you (i.e. negative work is done on you), so you lose some energy. The total energy is conserved. </h2><h2> </h2><h2>In simple words, the energy gained by the rubber band is the energy lost by you while elongating it.</h2>

A ray is incident on a film of thickness t and the index of refraction n=1.6 at an angle θ = 35 degrees. Find the angle of refra
lidiya [134]

Answer

Given,

refractive index of film, n = 1.6

refractive index of air, n' = 1

angle of incidence, i = 35°

angle of refraction, r = ?

Using Snell's law

n' sin i = n sin r

1 x sin 35° = 1.6 x sin  r

 r = 21°

Angle of refraction is equal to 21°.

Now,

distance at which refractive angle comes out

d = 2.5 mm

α be the angle with horizontal surface and incident ray.

α = 90°-21° = 69°

t be the thickness of the film.

So,

tan \alpha = \dfrac{t}{d/2}

tan 61^0 = \dfrac{t}{2.5/2}

t = 2.26 mm

Hence, the thickness of the film is equal to 2.26 mm.

Explain how to measure the weight of an object​
erastova [34]

Answer:

The formula for calculating weight is F = m × 9.8 m/s2, where F is the object's weight in Newtons (N) and m is the object's mass in kilograms.

Two large parallel conducting plates carrying opposite charges of equal magnitude are separated by 2.20 cm. If the surface charg
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

5.3\times 10^3 N/C

Explanation:

We are given that

Distance between plates=d=2.2 cm=2.2\times 10^{-2} m

1 cm=10^{-2} m

\sigma=47nC/m^2=47\times 10^{-9}C/m^2

Using 1 nC=10^{-9} C

We have to find the magnitude of E in the region between the plates.

We know that the electric field for parallel plates

E=\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

E_1=\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

E_2=\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

E=E_1+E_2

E=\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}+\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Where \epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}C^2/Nm^2

Substitute the values

E=\frac{47\times 10^{-9}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}}

E=5.3\times 10^3 N/C

Hence, the magnitude of E in the region between the plates=5.3\times 10^3 N/C

A 50.0 g toy car is released from rest on a frictionless track with a vertical loop of radius R (loop-the-loop). The initial hei
Mariana [72]

Answer:

the speed of the car at the top of the vertical loop  v_{top} = 2.0 \sqrt{gR \ \ }

the magnitude of the normal force acting on the car at the top of the vertical loop   F_{N} = 1.47 \ \ N

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of energy ;

mgh = mg (2R) + \frac{1}{2}mv^2_{top}\\\\mg ( 4.00 \ R) = mg (2R) + \frac{1}{2}mv^2_{top}\\\\g(4.00 \ R) = g (2R) + \frac{1}{2}v^2 _{top}\\\\v_{top} = \sqrt{2g(4.00R - 2R)}\\\\v_{top} = \sqrt{2g(4.00-2)R

v_{top} = 2.0 \sqrt{gR \ \ }

The  magnitude of the normal force acting on the car at the top of the vertical loop can be calculated as:

F_{N} = \frac{mv^2_{top}}{R} \ - mg\\\\F_{N} = \frac{m(2.0 \sqrt{gR})^2}{R} \ - mg\\\\F_{N} = [(2.0^2-1]mg\\\\F_{N} = [(2.0)^2 -1) (50*10^{-3} \ kg)(9.8 \ m/s^2]\\\\

F_{N} = 1.47 \ \ N
