Answer:

a) <em>8.33 x 10^-6 Pa</em>

b) <em>8.23 x 10^-11 atm</em>

c) <em>1.67 x 10^-5 Pa</em>

d) <em>1.65 x 10^-10 atm</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Intensity of the light I = 2500 W/m^2

speed of light c<u> </u>= 3 x 10^8 m/s

a) we know that the pressure for for a totally absorbing surface is given as

P_{abs} = I/c = 2500/(3 x 10^8) = <em>8.33 x 10^-6 Pa</em>

b) 1 atm = 101325 Pa

P_{abs} = (8.33 x 10^-6)/101325 = <em>8.23 x 10^-11 atm</em>

c) for a totally reflecting surface

P_{ref} = 2I/c = twice the value for totally absorbing

P_{ref}  = 2 x 8.33 x 10^-6 = <em>1.67 x 10^-5 Pa</em>

d)  1 atm = 101325 Pa

P_{ref} = 2 x 8.23 x 10^-11  = <em>1.65 x 10^-10 atm</em>

If a box is pulled with a force of 100 N at an angle of 25
love history [14]

The X and Y components of the force are 90.63 Newton and 42.26 Newton respectively.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Force = 100 Newton.
  • Angle of inclination = 25°

To determine the X and Y components of the force:

<h3>The horizontal component (X) of a force:</h3>

Mathematically, the horizontal component of a force is given by this formula:

F_x = Fcos \theta\\\\F_x =100 \times cos25\\\\F_x =100 \times 0.9063

Fx = 90.63 Newton.

<h3>The vertical component (Y) of tensional force:</h3>

Mathematically, the vertical component of a force is given by this formula:

F_y = Fsin \theta\\\\F_y =100 \times sin25\\\\F_y =100 \times 0.4226

Fy = 42.26 Newton.

A certain kind of glass has an index of refraction of 1.640 for blue light of wavelength 440 nm and an index of 1.595 for red li
seraphim [82]

Answer: 18.27°

Explanation:

Given

Index of refraction of blue light, n(b) = 1.64

Wavelength of blue light, λ(b) = 440 nm

Index of refraction of red light, n(r) = 1.595

Wavelength of red light, λ(r) = 670 nm

Angle of incident, θ = 30°

Angle of refraction of red light is

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(n(a)* sin θ) / n(r)], where n(a) = index of refraction of air = 1

So that,

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(1 * sin 30) / 1.595]

θ(r) = sin^-1 (0.5 / 1.595)

θ(r) = sin^-1 0.3135

θ(r) = 18.27°
