Answer:

when light falls on denser medium it may be reflected back or enters the medium and if it enters the medium it refracts towards the normal line of the medium.

The 2.5-Mg van is traveling with a speed of 100 km>h when the brakes are applied and all four wheels lock. If the speed decre
Andrew [12]

Answer:

0.34

Explanation:

2.5 Mg = 2500 kg

The change in speed from 100 km/h to 40 km/h is

\Delta v = 100 - 40 = 60 km/h = 60 * 1000 / (60 * 60) = 16.67 m/s

The deceleration caused by friction force is the change in speed per unit of time

a = \Delta v / \Delta t = 16.67 / 5 = 3.33 m/s^2

Using Newton 2nd law we can calculate the friction force that caused this deceleration:

F = ma = 2500 * 3.33 = 8333 N

Let g = 9.8m/s2. Friction force is the product of normal (gravity) force and friction coefficient

F = mg\mu

8333 = 2500*9.8\mu

\mu = \frac{8333}{2500 * 9.8} = 0.34

An ideal gas is confined within a closed cylinder at atmospheric pressure (1.013 * 105 Pa) by a piston. The piston moves until t
likoan [24]

Answer:

911700\ \text{Pa}

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 1.013\times 10^5\ \text{Pa}

V_1 = Initial volume

V_2= Final volume = \dfrac{V_1}{9}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=9

Temperature is the same in the initial and final state

From the ideal gas law we have

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=P_1\times9\\\Rightarrow P_2=1.013\times 10^5\times 9\\\Rightarrow P_2=911700\ \text{Pa}

The final pressure of the system is 911700\ \text{Pa}.

Four discs are spinning at constant angular velocity. Four ideantical balls are dropped on the discs at different distances from
Arlecino [84]

Answer: They will have equal final angular velocity.

Explanation:

Since the discs starts from rest and rotates about a fixed axis, they are subject to a constant net torque. The work done by the torque during the second revolution is as the work done during the first revolution.

The four disc will turn through equal angles in equal times.
