Why do skiers often wear sunglasses while they are skiing

Physics

They do it for personal protection, while they are skiing rocks can fly though and without personal protection the can get injured or even killed. That why they wear glasses for personal protection to avoid being injured in the eye.

For example if you are cooking and you want to take something of the oven, you would likely wear some hand gloves to avoid burns, that's the same with skiers.

There is a lot of glare off of the ice, due to the sun and it also is always good to have eye protection in case you fall face first :P

A neon sign that requires a voltage of 11,000 v is plugged into a 120-v wall outlet. what turns ratio (secondary/primary) must a
Arisa [49]
The equation that relates the voltages and the number of turns in a transformer is
\frac{V_s}{V_p}= \frac{N_s}{N_p}
where V_s = 120 V is the voltage in the secondary coil, V_p=11000 V is the voltage in the primary coil, and N_s and N_p are the number of turns on the secondary and primary coils.

Using the numbers, we find the ratio between the number of turns:
\frac{N_s}{N_p}= \frac{V_s}{V_p}= \frac{120 V}{11000 V}=0.0109

When discussing what makes a material a good conductor you say they must
Readme [11.4K]

A material must readily accept electron flow to be a good conductor of electricity. Electrical conductors are electrical charge carriers with electrons that move with ease from atom to atom when charged with voltage. Examples of good conductors are copper, brass, steel, gold, and aluminum.

The critical angle between a medium and air is 430. What is the speed of light in that medium?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.

Explanation:

since the critical angle is Фc = 430, we know that the refractive index is given by:

n = 1/sin(Фc)

  = 1/sin(430)

  = 1.06

then if n is the refractive index of the medium and c is the speed of light, then the speed of light in the medium is given by:

v = c/n

  = (3×10^8)/(1.06)

  = 281907786.2 m/s

Therefore, the speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.
