When the flashlight is in the air and the refracted ray enters the water, how does the angle of refraction compare with the angl

e of incidence?

4 0

Answer:

The refracted angle will be less than the angle of incidence and the speed of light is slower in the new medium (which is water) and is closer to the normal.

Try remembering this by using FST SFA (Fast Sofa)

                                             Fast -> Slow = Towards the normal

                                             Slow -> Fast = Away from normal

Tresset [83]

Answer:

m = 81281.5 pounds.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 73 kN

Acceleration of the space shuttle, a = 16000 mi/h²

1 miles/h² = 0.0001241 m/s2

16000 mi/h² = 1.98 m/s²

We need to find the mass of the spacecraft.

According to Newton's second law,

F = ma

m is mass of the spacecraft

m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{73\times 10^3\ N}{1.98\ m/s^2}\\\\m=36868.68\ kg

Since, 1 kg = 2.20462 pounds

m = 81281.5 pounds

Hence, the mass of the spacecraft is 81281.5 pounds.

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

P=42.075W

Explanation:

The power provided by a resistor (wire in this case) is given by:

P=\frac{V^2}{R}.

The resistance of a wire is given by:

R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

Where for the resistivity the one of the copper should be used: \rho=1.68\times10^{-8}\Omega m.

The area A is that of a circle, which written in terms of its diameter is:

A=\pi r^2=\pi (d/2)^2=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}

Putting all together:

P=\frac{AV^2}{\rho L}=\frac{\pi d^2V^2}{4\rho L}

Which for our values is:

P=\frac{\pi (0.00025m)^2(12V)^2}{4(1.68\times10^{-8}\Omega m)(10m)}=42.075W
