Here light ray strikes to interface at an angle of 45 degree and then refracts into other medium such that it will bend towards boundary.

So here the angle of incidence will be less than the angle of refraction as light moves towards the boundary after refraction which mean it will bend away from the normal

here it can be said that medium 2 will be rarer then medium 1

So here the possible options are

1. Water  

Air

2. Diamond  

Air

So in above two options medium 1 is denser and medium 2 is rarer

Determine the magnitude of the momentum of a ... 107-kg halfback moving eastward at 8 m/s.The halfback's momentum in kgm/s is:
Veronika [31]

Given:

The mass of the halfback is m = 107 kg

The speed of the halfback is v = 8 m/s

To find the momentum.

Explanation:

The momentum of the halfback is

\begin{gathered} p=\text{ mv} \\ =\text{ 107}\times8 \\ =\text{ 856 kg m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the momentum of the halfback is 856 kg m/s

Two very large, flat plates are parallel to each other. Plate A, located at y=1.0 cm, is along the xz-plane and carries a unifor
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

 E ≈ 1.70 10⁵ N/C

Explanation:

The electric field is a vector quantity, so we can calculate the field of each plate and then add them. To calculate the field of a plate let's use Gauss's law

       Φ = ∫ E. dA = q_{int} / ε₀

To apply this law we must create a Gaussian surface that takes advantage of the symmetry of the problem. The electric field lines on the surface are perpendicular, so the Gaussian surface that will be a cylinder with the base parallel to the plate.

On this surface the normal to the base (A) is parallel to the field lines whereby the scalar product is reduced to the ordinary product. The normal on the sides of the cylinder is perpendicular to the field, therefore, the product scale is zero.

        ∫I E dA = q_{int}  /ε₀

Let's look for the load under the cylinder, let's use the concept of load density

        σ =  q_{int} / A

         q_{int} = σ A

Let's write Gauss's law for this case

       E A =  q_{int} /ε₀  

       E A = σ A / ε₀

       E = σ / ε₀

As the field is emitted for each side of the plate the value to only one side is

      E = G / 2ε₀  

This expression is the same for each plate, now let's add the electric field at the requested point

     R = (0.50, 0.00, 0.00) cm

We see that this point is on the X axis, between the plates that are at the points y = -1.0 cm and y = 1.0 cm, as the plates are very large the test point is between them

The negative plate has an incoming field and the positive plate has an outgoing field, the test load is always positive. The field due to the negative plate goes to the left, the field through the positive plate goes to the left at this point whereby two are added

     E = E_ + E +

     E = σ1 / 2ε₀  + σ2 / 2ε₀  

     E = 1 / 2o (σ1 + σ2)

Let's calculate the value

     E = 1/2 8.85 10⁻¹² (1.00 10⁻⁶ + 2.00 10⁻⁶)

     E = 3 10⁻⁶ / 17.7 10⁻¹²

     E = 1,695 10⁵ N / C

     E ≈ 1.70 10⁵ N/C

A feather is dropped on the moon from the height of 1.4m. The acceleration of gravity on the moon is 1.67ms-1. Determine the tim
Zinaida [17]

1.3s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height = 1.4m

Gravity on moon = 1.67ms⁻¹

Unknown:

Time for feather to fall = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we are going to use one of the motion equation that relates time, gravity and height.

    H = ut + \frac{1}{2} g t^{2}

Sine the body was dropped from rest, initial velocity is zero;

 H = height

  u = initial velocity

  t = time

  g = acceleration due to gravity

since u = 0;

H = \frac{1}{2} g t^{2}

 1.4 = \frac{1}{2} x 1.67 x t²

  t = 1.3s

The variables for Part II of this experiment include the force applied to the car and the acceleration of the car. Use the drop-
gregori [183]

Answer:

Independent variable: Force applied to the car

Dependent variable: The acceleration of the car

Explanation:

A scientific experiment involves three variables which are classified mainly as independent, dependent and constant variables.

The independent variable is the variable which can be changed or changes itself like weather, natural conditions and in a given question, the applied force on the car is considered.

The dependent variable is the variable which depends on the independent variable that is the force applied on the car. Therefore, the acceleration of the car can be considered as a dependent variable as it changes according to the applied force.
