3.51 × 10^-7m

Explanation:

Refractive index = wavelength of the light in air ÷ wavelength in the medium

wavelength in the medium = wavelength of the light in air ÷ refractive index

= 5.4 * 10^-7 ÷ 1.54

= 3.51 × 10^-7m

The diagram shows two forces of equal magnitude acting on an object. If the common magnitude of the forces is 3.6 N and the angl
Nuetrik [128]
<h3>Answer</h3>

6.6 N pointing to the right

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Given that,

two forces acting of magnitude 3.6N

angle between them = 48°

To find,

the third force that will cause the object to be in equilibrium

<h3>1)</h3>

Find the vertical and horizontal components of the two forces

vertical force1 = sin(24)(3.6)

vertical force2= -sin(24)(3.6)

<em>(negative sign since it is acting on opposite direction)</em>

vertical force3 = sin(24)(3.6) - sin(24)(3.6)

                        = 0

<h3>2)</h3>

horizontal force1 = cos(24)(3.6)

horizontal force2= cos(24)(3.6)

horizontal force3 = cos(24)(3.6) + cos(24)(3.6)

                            = 2(cos(24)(3.6))

                            = 6.5775 N

                            ≈ 6.6 N

A spherical ball of charged particles has a uniform charge density. In terms of the ball's radius R, at what radial distances in
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Electric field at radius r inside the solid sphere is

Electric field at radius r between inner radius and outer radius of the shell is

E=0 N/C

Explanation:Given

The radius of the solid sphere is

The charge on the solid sphere is

The inner radius of the shell is

The outer radius of the shell is

The total charge on the shell is

PART(A)

The magnitude of electric field at radius r where  \\The volumetric charge density of the solid sphere will be

The charge enclosed by the radius r inside the solid sphere is

rho=

According to gauss law

PART(B)

The electric field at radius r where

The shell is conducting so due to induction of charge

The charge induced on the inner surface of the shell is equal in magnitude of the total charge on the solid sphere but polarity will be changed because a conducting shell has no net electric field inside the shell

So,

The charge on the inner surface of the shell is

Due to conservation of the charge on the shell

The charge accumulated on the outer surface of the shell is

The charge enclosed by the radius r where

According to gauss law

calculate the work done in kilo joules in lifting a mass of 20kg at steady velocity through a vertical height of 20m
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf Work\ done = 4 kJ}

Explanation:

Since work done is in the form of potential energy, we will use the formula of potential energy here.

We know that,

<h3>P.E. = mgh </h3>

Where,

m = mass = 20 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

h = vertical height = 20 m

So,

<h3>Work done = mgh</h3>

Work done = (20)(10)(20)

Work done = 4000 joules

Work done = 4 kJ

The path of the sun on the celestial sphere is called.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Ecliptic

Explanation:

The path the sun, moon, and planets take across the sky as seen from Earth. It defines the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun. The name "Ecliptic" comes from the fact that eclipses take place along this line.
