A laser beam is incident at an angle of 30.0° from the vertical onto a solution of corn syrup in water. The beam is refracted to

19.24° from the vertical. (a) What is the index of refraction of the corn syrup solution? Assume that the light is red, with vacuum wavelength 632.8 nm. Find its (b) wavelength, (c) frequency, and (d) speed in the solution.

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Angle of incidence,i=30^{\circ}

Angle of refraction,r=19.24^{\circ}

a.Refractive index of air,n_1=1

We know that

n_2sinr=n_1sini

n_2=\frac{n_1sin i}{sin r}=\frac{sin30}{sin19.24}=1.517

b.Wavelength of red light in vacuum,\lambda=632.8nm=632.8\times 10^{-9} m

1nm=10^{-9} m

Wavelength in the solution,\lambda'=\frac{\lambda}{n_2}

\lambda'=\frac{632.8}{1.517}=417nm

c.Frequency does not change .It remains same in vacuum and solution.

Frequency,\nu=\frac{c}{\lamda}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{632.8\times 10^{-9}}

Where c=3\times 10^8 m/s

Frequency,\nu=4.74\times 10^{14}Hz

d.Speed in the solution,v=\frac{c}{n_2}

v=\frac{3\times 10^8}{1.517}=1.98\times 10^8m/s

standing side by side, you and a friend step off a bridge and fall for 1.6s to the water below. your friend goes first, and you
Andrew [12]

(a) The distance will be more than 2.0 meters.

In fact, you starts your fall after your friend has already fallen 2.0 meters. This means that your friend has already accelerated for a while, therefore his velocity will be greater than yours. But this statement will be actually true for the entire fall, since you has some delay, therefore when your friend will hit the water, the separation between you and him will be greater than the initial separation of 2.0 meters.


b) First of all we need to calculate the height of the bridge with respect to the water. We know that you take 1.6 s to fall down, therefore we can use the following equation:

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(1.6s)^2=12.56 m

We know that your friend will take 1.6 s to falls down. Instead, you start your jump after he has already fallen 2.0 m, therefore after a time given by the equation:

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Using S=2.0 m,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2.0 m)}{9.81 m/s^2}}=0.64 s

So we know that you start your fall 0.64 s after your friend. Therefore, now we can find how much did you fall between the moment you started your fall (0.64 s) and the moment your friend hits the water (1.6 s). Using

t=1.6 s-0.64 s=0.96 s

we find

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(0.96 s)^2 =4.52 m

So, when your friend hits the water, you just covered 4.52 m, while he already covered 12.56 m. Therefore, the separation between you and your friend is more than 2 meters.

a 1000 khz am radio station broadcasts with a power of 20 kw. how many photons does the transmitter antenna emit each second
Gemiola [76]

1000 khz am radio station broadcasts with a power of 20 kw number of photon emitted per second is 30.16 x 10^30 photon/s.

The frequency of the radio station is:

The transmit power is: P = 20kW = 20 X 10^3 W

The transmit power is: h = 6.63 x 10 ^-34 m^2.kg/s

The number of photon emitted per second = N = P/hf = <u>30.16 x 10^30 </u>photon/s.

Which element has the strongest attraction for electrons
Alex787 [66]

If one atom is overwhelmingly more electronegative than the other atom, the electrons will not be shared and an ionic bond will result. The periodic table below shows the Pauling electronegativity scale. A value of 4.0 is assigned to FLORINE, the most electronegative element.

ITS FLORINE
