Answer:

C. It speeds up, and the angle increases

Explanation:

We can answer by using the Snell's law:

n_i sin \theta_i = n_r sin \theta_r

where

n_i, n_r are the refractive index of the first and second medium

\theta_i is the angle of incidence (measured between the incident ray and the normal to the surface)

\theta_r is the angle of refraction (measured between the refracted ray and the normal to the surface)

In this problem, light moves into a medium that has lower index of refraction, so

n_r < n_i

We can rewrite Snell's law as

sin \theta_r =\frac{n_i}{n_r}sin \theta_i

and since

\frac{n_i}{n_r}>1

this means that

sin \theta_r > sin \theta_i

which implies

\theta_r > \theta_i

so, the angle increases.

Also, the speed of light in a medium is given by

v=\frac{c}{n}

where c is the speed of light and v the refractive index: we see that the speed is inversely proportional to n, therefore the lower the index of refraction, the higher the speed. So, in this problem, the light will speed up, since it moves into a medium with lower index of refraction.

A laser beam with a frequency of 180 Hz forms an 8 m standing wave with 10 nodes.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:33

Explanation:

F = frequency

N =  Node count

w = wave lenght

v = wave velocity

L = distance wave traveled

First find wave length of laser

w = (2/(N))*(L)

w = (2/(10))*(8)

w = 1.6

then using (w), find velocity

V =  (w)(F)

V = (1.6)*(108)

V = 288

Plug in V and the new frequency to solve for new node count

F = NV/2L

(600) = (N)*(288) / 2 * (8)

(N) = 33.33

there are 33 nodes

Which one of the following statements does not accurately describe vibrations?
Paladinen [302]
A. Forced vibrations, such as those between a tuning fork and a large cabinet surface, result in a much lower sound than was produced by the original vibrating body.

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time.The velocity of the first airplane is 700 m/h at a heading of 31.3 the velocity
MArishka [77]

Here in order to find out the distance between two planes after 3 hours can be calculated by the concept of relative velocity

v_{12} = v_1 - v_2

here

speed of first plane is 700 mi/h at 31.3 degree

v_1 = 700 cos31.3\hat i + 700 sin31.3\hat j

v_1 = 598.12\hat i + 363.7\hat j

speed of second plane is 570 mi/h at 134 degree

v_2 = 570 cos134 \hat i + 570 sin134 \hat j

v_2 = -396\hat i + 410\hat j

now the relative velocity is given as

v_{12} = (598.12 + 396)\hat i + (363.7 - 410)\hat j

v_{12} =994.12\hat i -46.3 \hat j

now the distance between them is given as

d = v* t

d = (994.12 \hat i - 46.3 \hat j)* 3

d = 2982.36\hat i - 138.9\hat j

so the magnitude of the distance is given as

d = \sqrt{2982.36^2 + 138.9^2}

d = 2985.6 miles

so the distance between them is 2985.6 miles
