Answer: The correct answer is "The light ray will be refracted towards the normal".

Explanation:

Refraction: It is the phenomenon in which light gets bend while travelling from one medium to the another medium due to change in the speed of light.

The light ray gets bend towards the normal after travelling from the rare medium to the denser medium.

The light ray gets bend away from the normal after travelling from the denser to rarer medium.

In the given problem, If a light ray is traveling from air into a glass prism then the direction of the light ray will change after it enters the prism. The light ray will be refracted towards the normal

Therefore, the correct option is (A).

Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 105 Pa. The approach of a storm causes the height of a mercury barometer to drop by 27.1 mm
Burka [1]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure is 0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa.

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure P_{atm}= 1.013\times10^{5}\ Pa    

drop height h'= 27.1 mm

Density of mercury \rho= 13.59 g/cm^3

We need to calculate the height

Using formula of pressure

p = \rho g h

Put the value into the formula

1.013\times10^{5}=13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times h

h =\dfrac{1.013\times10^{5}}{13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8}

h=0.76\ m

We need to calculate the new height

h''=h - h'

h''=0.76-27.1\times10^{-3}

h''=0.76-0.027

h''=0.733\ m

We need to calculate the atmospheric pressure

Using formula of atmospheric pressure

P=\rho g h

Put the value into the formula

P= 13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times0.733

P=0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa

Hence, The atmospheric pressure is 0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa.

A proton traveling to the right enters a region of uniform magnetic field that points into the page.When the proton enters this
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

(C) deflected toward the top of the page.(

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by using Fleming's Left Hand Rule. By doing so, we have to place:

- The index finger of the left hand in the direction of the magnetic field

- The middle finger of the left hand in the direction of the particle's velocity

- The thumb will give the direction of the force, and therefore the deflection of the proton

In this problem, we have:

- Magnetic field direction: into the page --> index finger

- Proton's velocity: to the right --> middle finger

By doing so, we observe that the thumb points towards the top of the page: therefore, the correct answer is

(C) deflected toward the top of the page.

A completely inelastic collision occurs between two balls of wet putty that move directly toward each other along a vertical axi
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

the balls reached a height of 4.9985 m

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mass one m = 3.8 kg

mass two M = 2.1 kg

Initial velocities

u = 22 m/s

U = { moving downward} = 12 m/s

Now, using the law conservation of linear moment;

mu + MU = v( m + M )

we solve for "v" which is the velocity of the ball s after collision;

v = (mu + MU) / ( m + M )

so we substitute our given values into the equation

v = ( ( 3.8 × 22 ) + ( 2.1 × -12) ) / ( 3.8 + 2.1 )

v = ( 83.6 - 25.2 ) / 5.9

v = 58.4 / 5.9

v = 9.898 m/s

Now, we determine required height using the following relation;

v"² - v² = 2gh

where v" is the velocity at the top which is 0 m/s and g = -9.8 m/s²

0 - v² = 2gh

v² = -2gh

so we substitute

( 9.898 )² = -2 × -9.8  × h

97.97 = 19.6 × h

h = 97.97 / 19.6

h = 4.9985 m

Therefore, the balls reached a height of 4.9985 m
