Answer:

1.5

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

C (critical angle) = 41.8°

n (refractive index od benzene) =?

Using the formula n = 1/sineC, the refractive index of benzene can be achieved as shown below:

n = 1/sineC

n = 1/sine 41.8°

n = 1.5

Therefore, the refractive index of benzene is 1.5

ohaa [14]

Answer:

C ) 1.53

Explanation:

The critical angle of a material is given by the formula

sin c = \frac{1}{n}

where

c is the critical angle

n is the refractive index

This formula is valid if the second medium is air (which is the case of the problem).

In this problem, we know the critical angle:

c=40.8^{\circ}

Therefore we can rearrange the equation to find the refractive index:

n=\frac{1}{sin c}=\frac{1}{sin 40.8^{\circ}}=1.53

A square sheet of rubber has sides that are 20 cm long. What is the area of the square of rubber in cm squared?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

400cm^2

Explanation:

sides are 20cm long Area for a square is a squared

since all the lides are of equal length you can just choose one side.

20squared is 400

20 x 20 = 400cm squared

Hope this helps :)

Two pipes move the same amount of ideal fluid in the same amount of time. One pipe has a 2 in. diameter; the other has a 3 in. d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a) 3-in. pipe

Explanation:

Given that

Fluid flow is in same amount in the same time it means that volume flow rate is same for the pipes

Volume flow rate

Q = A V

A=Area ,V=Velocity

A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

If diameter d is more then the velocity will be less for same volume flow rate .We also Know that if pressure is more then the velocity will be less.

The second pipe 3 in diameter having more diameter then the velocity will be less but the pressure will be more.

That is why the 3 in diameter is having more pressure than 2 in diameter pipe.

Therefore the answer will be a.

a) 3-in diameter  pipe
