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

Physics
1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago
6 0

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 1.0-kg block moving to the right at speed 3.0 m/s collides with an identical block also moving to the right at a speed 1.0 m/s
____ [38]

Answer:

Speed of both blocks after collision is 2 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of both blocks, m₁ = m₂ = 1 kg

Velocity of first block, u₁ = 3 m/s

Velocity of other block, u₂ = 1 m/s

Since, both blocks stick after collision. So, it is a case of inelastic collision. The momentum remains conserved while the kinetic energy energy gets reduced after the collision. Let v is the common velocity of both blocks. Using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v

v=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

v=\dfrac{1\ kg\times 3\ m/s+1\ kg\times 1\ m/s}{2\ kg}

v = 2 m/s

Hence, their speed after collision is 2 m/s.

Irina rode her bike to work at an average speed of 16 miles per hour. It started to rain, so she got a ride home along the same
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

0.7 hours

Explanation:

From the way back, we can calculate the distance between Irina's work and Irina's home. In fact, we know that the car takes 0.4 hourse traveling at 27 mph, so the distance covered should be

d=vt=(27 mph)(0.4 h)=10.8 mi

When Irina rides to work with her bike, she travels at a speed of 16 mph. So we can find the time she takes by dividing the total distance (10.8 miles) by her speed:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{10.8 mi}{16 mph}=0.7 h
