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

Which pair of equations can describe the path of a particle moving with an acceleration that is perpendicular to the velocity of
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The question clearly describes the circular motion.

The circular motion equation is

a_{radial} = \frac{v^2}{r}

The path of the particle is circular.

Explanation:

In circular motion, the radial acceleration is always towards the center and constant in magnitude. Furthermore, the velocity of the circular motion is always tangential to the circle, that is it is always perpendicular to the radius, hence the acceleration.

suppose a car manufacturer tested its cars for front end collsion by hauling them up on a crane and dropping them from a certain
IRINA_888 [86]

Initial height: 66.5 m

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the principle of conservation of energy.

If we neglect air resistance, the total mechanical energy of the car is conserved during the fall, therefore we can write:

K_i + U_i = K_f + U_f

where :

K_i = 0 is the kinetic energy of the car at the top (it starts from rest)

U_i = mgh is the gravitational potential energy of the car at the top, with:

m = the mass of the car

g = the acceleration of gravity

h = the heigth of the car

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the kinetic energy of the car just before hitting the ground, with

v = 130 km/h final speed of the car

U_f = 0 is the gravitational potential energy of the car at the bottom

Re-arranging the equation,  we find

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

and we have:

g=9.8 m/s^2\\v = 130 km/h = 36.1 m/s

Solving for h, we find the initial height of the car:

h=\frac{v^2}{2g}=\frac{36.1^2}{2(9.8)}=66.5 m

you push a sled of mass 15 kg across the snow with a force of 180 N for a distance of 2.5 m. There is no friction. if the sled s
Oxana [17]
<span>7.7 m/s First, determine the acceleration you subject the sled to. You have a mass of 15 kg being subjected to a force of 180 N, so 180 N / 15 kg = 180 (kg m)/s^2 / 15 kg = 12 m/s^2 Now determine how long you pushed it. For constant acceleration the equation is d = 0.5 A T^2 Substitute the known values getting, 2.5 m = 0.5 12 m/s^2 T^2 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 Solve for T 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 0.41667 s^2 = T^2 0.645497224 s = T Now to get the velocity, multiply the time by the acceleration, giving 0.645497224 s * 12 m/s^2 = 7.745966692 m/s After rounding to 2 significant figures, you get 7.7 m/s</span>

The surface is tilted to an angle of 37 degrees from the horizontal, as shown above in Figure 3. The blocks are each given a pus
hoa [83]

Answer:

Incomplete question: "Each block has a mass of 0.2 kg"

The speed of the two-block system's center of mass just before the blocks collide is 2.9489 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

θ = angle of the surface = 37°

m = mass of each block = 0.2 kg

v = speed = 0.35 m/s

t = time to collision = 0.5 s

Question: What is the speed of the two-block system's center of mass just before the blocks collide, vf = ?

Change in momentum:

delta(P)=F*delta(t)

P_{f} -P_{i}=F*delta(t)

2m(v_{f} -v_{i})=F*delta(t)

v_{i} =0.35-0.35=0

It is neccesary calculate the force:

F=(m+m)*g*sin\theta

Here, g = gravity = 9.8 m/s²

F=(0.2+0.2)*9.8*sin37=2.3591N

v_{f} =\frac{F*delta(t)}{2m} =\frac{2.3591*0.5}{2*0.2} =2.9489m/s
