Answer:
41.2°
Explanation:
Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.
The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.
Since
n= 1/sin C
C= sin^-(1/n)
C= sin^-(1/1.33)
C= 48.8°
Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°
Answer:
t'=1.1897 μs
Explanation:
First we will calculate the velocity of micrometeorite relative to spaceship.
Formula:
where:
v is the velocity of spaceship relative to certain frame of reference = -0.82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track).
u is the velocity of micrometeorite relative to same frame of reference as spaceship = .82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track)
u' is the relative velocity of micrometeorite with respect to spaceship.
In order to find u' , we can rewrite the above expression as:
u'=0.9806c
Time for micrometeorite to pass spaceship can be calculated as:
(c = 3*10^8 m/s)
t'=1.1897 μs
Answer:
A: used has four times the tensile strength of steel and the timber frame, incorporating
Explanation:
Option A is correct because it conveys the correct message intended by the statement and has no grammatical errors.
Option B is wrong because to say "has four times the tensile strength of steel has" is just grammatically and idiomatically wrong as has is used twice in the sentence.
Option C is wrong because the statement that has to do with the flexibility of the timber's frame is more like a separate fact and does not fall under the scope of trying to further explain a fact.
Option D is wrong because it has the same problem in Option C. The comma that is placed after "steel" breaks the sentence and hence does not provide a good understanding of why the building can withstand earthquakes.
Option E is grammatically wrong for using does in the sentence "has four times the tensile strength steel does"
Answer:
Car H
Explanation:
Frictional force is a resistant force. It is given as:
F = u*m*g
Where u = coefficient of friction
m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
From the formula above, we see that frictional force is dependent on the mass of object and the coefficient of friction.
Since they all have the same tires, the coefficient of friction between the tire and the floor is the same for each car. Acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant.
The only factor that determines the frictional force of each car is the mass. Hence, the more the mass, the more the frictional force.
So, the most massive car will have the most frictional force and hence, will come to a stop quicker than the others. The least massive car will have the least frictional force and so, will take a longer time to stop.
