Arisa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

The difference in time will be due to travel through atmosphere where speed of light slows down. If t be the thickness of atmosphere and c be the speed of light in space and μ be the refractive index of atmosphere difference in travel time will be as follows .

difference = \frac{2t\mu }{c}-\frac{2t }{c}

=\frac{2t}{c }\left ( 1-\mu  \right )

Now t = 40 x 10³m ,μ = 1.000293 , c = 3 x 10⁸.

difference =\frac{2t\mu }{c}-\frac{2t }{c}

=\frac{2t}{c }\left ( \mu -1  \right )\\

=\frac{ 2\times 40\times 10^3}{3\times10^3 }\left ( 1.000293-1 \right )\\

=7.81\times 10^{-3} s

class 7 Physics answera plot measuring 2 km in length and 1 by 2 km in breadth has area of how many hectare ​
motikmotik

Answer:

Area of plot in hectare = 100 hectare

Explanation:

Given;

Length of plot = 2 km

Width of plot = 1/2 km = 0.5 km

Find:

Area of plot in hectare

Computation:

Area of plot = Length x width

Area of plot = 2 x 0.5

Area of plot = 1 square kilometer

1 square kilometer = 100 hectare

Area of plot in hectare = 1 x 100

Area of plot in hectare = 100 hectare

The first law of thermodynamics states that E=Q-W. How is this also a statement of the principle of conservation of energy?
g100num [7]
This law demonstrates that the energy within a close system may be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created nor destroyed.

determine the maximum angle theta for which the light rays incident on the end of the optical fiber of radius 1 mm are subhect t
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the critical angle be C .

sinC = 1 / μ where μ is index of refraction .

sinC = 1 /1.2

= .833

C = 56°

Then angle of refraction r = 90 - 56 = 34 ( see the image in attached file )

sin i / sinr = 1.2 , i is angle of incidence

sini = 1.2 x sinr = 1.2 x sin 34 = .67

i = 42°.
