Suppose the glass paperweight has index of refraction n=1.38. a) find the value of θ for which the reflection on the vertical su

rface of the paperweight exactly satisfies the condition for total internal reflection. b) If θ is increased, is the reflection at the vertical surface still total?

Answer:

a)θ=71.89°

b)NO

Explanation:

Given that

For glass n= 1.38

We know that for air n'=1

The angle  for total internal reflection θc given as

sin θc=n'/n

By putting the values

sin θc=n'/n

sin θc=1/1.38

θc=46.43°

n'sinθ = n sinθref

sinθref = cosθc

n'sinθ =  n cosθc

1 x sinθ =1.38 x cos 46.43°

θ=71.89°

b)

NO

Two soccer players start from rest, 36 m apart. They run directly toward each other, both players accelerating. The first player
Cerrena [4.2K]
A) Both players are moving by uniformly accelerated motion, and we can write the position at time t of each of the two players as follows:
x_1(t)= \frac{1}{2}a_1 t^2
x_2(t)=d- \frac{1}{2}a_2 t^2
where
a_1 = 0.58 m/s^2 is the acceleration of the first player
a_2=0.42 m/s^2 is the acceleration of the second player
d=36 m is the initial distance between the two players
and where I put a negative sign in front of the acceleration of the second player, since he's moving in the opposite direction of the first player.

The time t at which the two players collide is the time t at which x_1 = x_2, therefore:
\frac{1}{2}a_1 t^2 = d- \frac{1}{2}a_2 t^2
from whic we find
t= \sqrt{ \frac{2d}{a_1+a_2} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 36 m}{0.58 m/s^2+0.42 m/s^2} }=8.5 s

b) We can use the equation of x_1(t) to find how far the first player run in t=8.5 s:
x_1(t)= \frac{1}{2}a_1 t^2= \frac{1}{2}(0.58 m/s^2)(8.5 s)^2=21.0 m

A body-centered cubic lattice has a lattice constant of 4.83 Ă. A plane cutting the lattice has intercepts of 9.66 Å, 19.32 Å, a
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Miller Indices are [2, 4, 3]

Solution:

As per the question:

Lattice Constant, C = 4.83 \AA

Intercepts along the three axes:

\bar{x} = 9.66 \AA

\bar{x} = 19.32 \AA

\bar{x} = 14.49 \AA

Now,

Miller Indices gives the vector representation of the atomic plane orientation in the lattice and are found by taking the reciprocal of the intercepts.

Now, for the Miller Indices along the three axes:

a = \frac{1}{9.66}

b = \frac{1}{19.32}

c = \frac{1}{14.49}

To find the Miller indices, we divide a, b and c by reciprocal of lattice constant 'C' respectively:

a' = \frac{\frac{1}{9.66}}{\frac{1}{4.83}} = \frac{1}{2}

b' = \frac{\frac{1}{19.32}}{\frac{1}{4.83}} = \frac{1}{4}

c' = \frac{\frac{1}{14.49}}{\frac{1}{4.83}} = \frac{1}{3}

A car is sitting still. It accelerates to a constant speed then it decelerates again to zero speed. While the car is acceleratin
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

in the acceleration process the quantity α and w must increase

the deceleration process the alpha quantity must constant  a direction opposite to the angular velocity

Explanation:

Acceleration and angular velocity are related to linear

           v = w xr

            a = αx r

The bold letters indicate vectors and the cross is a vector product, therefore if

we can see that the relationship between linear and angular variables is direct

therefore in the acceleration process the quantity α and w must increase as well as their linear counterparts

in the deceleration process the alpha quantity must constant as the linear acceleration and must have a direction opposite to the angular velocity
