A narrow beam of light containing red (660 nm) and blue (470 nm) wavelengths travels from air through a 1.00 cm thick flat piece

of crown glass and back to air again. The beam strikes at an incident angle of 30 degrees. (a) At what angles do the two colors emerge

Answer:

The color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.

Explanation:

The angle at which the two colors emerge can be calculated using the Snell's Law:

n_{1}sin(\theta_{1}) = n_{2}sin(\theta_{2})

Where:

n₁ is the refractive index of the incident medium (air) = 1.0003

n₂ is the refractive index of the refractive medium:

    blue light in crown glass = 1.524

    red light in crown glass = 1.512

θ₁ is the angle of the incident light = 30°

θ₂ is the angle of the refracted light                            

<u>For the red wavelengths we have:</u>

\theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.512}) = 19.32 ^{\circ}

<u>For the blue wavelengths we have</u>:

\theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.524}) = 19.16 ^{\circ}

Therefore, the color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.  

I hope it helps you!

An airplane flies in a loop (a circular path in a vertical plane) of radius 160 m . The pilot's head always points toward the ce
notka56 [123]

Answer:

a) 39.6 m/s b) 4123 N

Explanation:

a) At the top of the loop, all of the forces point downwards (force of gravity and normal force).

Fnet=ma

ma=m(v^2/R) (centripetal acceleration)

mg=m(v^2/R)

m cancels out (this is why pilot feels weightless) so,

g=(v^2/R)

9.8 m/s^2 = v^2/160 m

v^2=1568 m^2/s^2

v=39.6 m/s

b) At the bottom of the loop, the normal force and the force of gravity point in opposite directions. The normal force is the weight felt.

Convert 300 km/hr to m/s

300 km/hr=83.3 m/s

Convert pilot's weight into mass:

760 N = 77.55 kg

Fnet=ma

n-mg=m(v^2/R)

n=(77.55 kg)(((83.3 m/s)^2)/160 m)+(77.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)

n=3363.2 N+760 N=4123 N

a block measures 3.5 cm long 2.8 cm wide and 1.6 cm deep. the density of the block 2.5 g/cm. calculate the volume of the block.
luda_lava [24]
Volume of a block can be found by: length × width × height. So:

3.5cm × 2.8cm × 1.6cm = 15.68cm^3

What is the Genetic Modification Process?<br><br> Brainlyist for the best answer
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Production of GMOs is a multistage process which can be summarized as follows:

1. identification of the gene interest;

2. isolation of the gene of interest;

3. amplifying the gene to produce many copies;

4. associating the gene with an appropriate promoter and poly A sequence and insertion into plasmids;

5. multiplying the plasmid in bacteria and recovering the cloned construct for injection;

6. transference of the construct into the recipient tissue, usually fertilized eggs;

7. integration of gene into recipient genome;

8. expression of gene in recipient genome; and

9. inheritance of gene through further generations.
