The "gas" is ionized and may correctly be described as a fourth state of matter - a plasma - rather than a gas. Both a gas and a plasma would expand indefinitely if not contained somehow but the ionized particles of a plasma could be controlled electromagnetically whereas a gas could not. A typical plasma is contained in an illuminated neon sign.

A light ray traveling through medium 1, index of refraction n1n1n_1 = 1.75, reaches the interface between medium 1 and medium 2,
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

θ₁ = 35.32°

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of medium 1 = n₁ = 1.75

refractive index of medium 2 = n₂ = 1.24

condition to describe the refracted angle

 \theta_{refracted} + \theta_{reflected}=90^0

 \theta_2 = 90^0-\theta_1...(1)

Using Snell's Law

   n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

θ₁ , θ₂ is the angle of incidence and refractive index

n₁. n₂ is the refractive index medium 1 and medium 2

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin θ₂

From equation (1)

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin (90-θ₁)

   1.75 sin θ₁ = 1.24 cos θ₁

      tan θ₁ = 0.708

         θ₁ = 35.32°

Hence, angle of incidence is equal to θ₁ = 35.32°

Compute the velocity of an electron that has been accelerated through a difference of potential of 100 volts. express your answe
Elodia [21]

The velocity of an electron that has been accelerated through a difference of potential of 100 volts will be 5.93 * 10^{6} m/s

Electrons move because they get pushed by some external force. There are several energy sources that can force electrons to move. Voltage is the amount of push or pressure that is being applied to the electrons.

By conservation of energy, the kinetic energy has to equal the change in potential energy, so KE=q*V. The energy of the electron in electron-volts is numerically the same as the voltage between the plates.

given

charge of electron = 1.6 × 10^{-19} C

mass of electron  = 9.1 × 10^{-31} kg

Force in an electric field = q*E

potential energy is stored in the form of work done

potential energy = work done = Force * displacement

                                                   = q * (E * d)  

                                                   = q * (V) = 1.6 × 10^{-19} * 100

stored potential energy = kinetic energy in electric field

kinetic energy = 1/2 * m * v^{2}

                        = 1/2 *  9.1 × 10^{-31} *  v^{2}

equation both the equations

1/2 *  9.1 × 10^{-31} *  v^{2} = 1.6 × 10^{-17}

v^{2} = 0.352 * 10^{14} m/s

v^{2} = 35.2 * 10^{12}

    = 5.93 * 10^{6} m/s

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force acting on the sun due to the earth?The earth does not exert any gravitational f
Sholpan [36]

I haven't worked on Part-A, and I don't happen to know the magnitude of the gravitational force that the Sun exerts on the Earth.  

But whatever it is, it's exactly, precisely, identical, the same, and equal to the magnitude of the gravitational force that the Earth exerts on the Sun.

I think that's the THIRD choice here, but I'm not sure of that either.
