What happens to light waves at the interface between different media?

Physics
1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago

Answer:

Refractive motion is the impact of a light wave that travels from medium to medium in an angle away from normal, where the direction of light varies. Light is refracted when it crosses the air-to-glass interface and moves slower.

A small block of mass m1 = 0.4 kg is placed on a long slab of mass m2 = 2.8 kg. Initially, the slab is stationary and the block
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

v₁ = 0.375 m / s ,   x = 0.335 m

Explanation:

Let's analyze this interesting exercise, the block moves and has a friction force with the tile, we assume that the speed of the block is constant, so the friction force opposes the block movement. For the only force that acts (action and reaction) this friction force exerted by the block that is in the direction of movement of the tile.

We can also see that the isolated system formed by the block and the tile will reach a stable speed where friction cannot give the system more energy, this speed can be found by treating the system with the conservation of linear momentum.

initial moment. Right at the start of the movement

       p₀ = m v₀ + 0

final moment. Just when it comes to equilibrium

      p_{f} = (m + M) v₁

how the forces are internal

       p₀ =p_{f}

       m v₀ = (m + M) v₁

       v₁ = m /m+M    v₀

let's calculate

       v₁ = 0.4 /(0.4 + 2.8)  3

       v₁ = 0.375 m / s

 

Let's apply Newton's second law to the Block, to find the friction force

Y axis

       N - W = 0

       N = W

       N = m g

where m is the mass of the block

the friction force has the formula

      fr = μ N

      fr = μ m g

We apply Newton's second law to slab    

X axis

       fr = M a

where M is the mass of the slab

       μ m g = M a

       a = μ g m / M

let's calculate

       a = 0.15  9.8  0.4 / 2.8

       a = 0.21 m / s²

With kinematics we can find the position

       v²= v₀²+2 a x

as the slab is initially at rest, its initial velocity is zero

       v² = 2 a x

       x = v2 / 2a

let's calculate

        x = 0.375²/2 0.21

        x = 0.335 m

A 1400-kg car traveling east at 25m/s collides with a 1800-kg car traveling at a speed of 20m/s in a direction that makes angle
julia-pushkina [17]
M1*V1 + M2*V2 = M1*V + M2*V.
1400*25 + 1800*20[180+40]=1400*V+1800*V.
Divide both sides by 100:
14*25 + 18*20[220o] = 14V + 18V.
350 + 360[220o] = 32V.
350 - 276-231i = 32V.
74 - 231i = 32V.
242.6[-72.2o] = 32V.
V = 7.6m/s[-72.2o]=7.6m/s[72o] S. of E.

Jake lifted a 10-kg bell by a distance of 0.50 meters in 0.50 seconds. How much power did Jake use?​
Reil [10]

Answer:

10 watts

Explanation:

first calculate work.

Work =force×distance cos thita

10Kg×0.50M cos 0= 5joules

Therefore, Power=Work÷ Time

Therefore, 5joules÷0.50s=10 watts.
