The critical angle of diamond is 24 degrees. What is its refractive index?

Physics
1 answer:
jolli1 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

2.46

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Critical angle (C) = 24 °

Refractive index (n) =?

The refractive index of the diamond can be obtained by using the following formula as illustrated below:

Refractive index (n) = 1 / sine [critical angle (C)]

n = 1/sine C

n = 1 / sine 24 °

n = 1/0.4067

n = 2.46

Thus, the refractive index of the diamond is 2.46

As waves get closer to a beach they:
hoa [83]

Answer:

As waves get closer to a beach they decrease in height.

Explanation:

As a wave crest approaches the shoreline, it is usual that one end of the line is closer to the shoreline than the other. The implication of this is that the energy in a wave is also spread over quite a larger area,this in turn reduces the height of the waves. In other words, refraction often makes waves smaller.

Waves are caused by wind. Wave height in the open ocean is determined by three factors. The greater the wind speed the larger the waves. The greater the duration of the wind (or storm) the larger the waves. The greater the fetch (area over which the wind is blowing - size of storm) the larger the waves.

An AC adapter for a telephone-answering unit uses a transformer to reduce the line voltage of 120 V (rms) to a voltage of 9.0 V.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

1. The number of turns on the secondary output is 18

2. The root mean square power delivered to the transformer is 48 Watts.

Explanation:

A transformer is an electronic device that can be used for increasing or decreasing the value of a given voltage. It consists of primary coils and secondary coil of a definte number of turns. When voltage flows in the primary coil, it induces voltage in the secondary coil. The two types are: step-up and step down transformers.

1. For a given transformer,

          \frac{V_{s} }{V_{p} } = \frac{N_{s} }{N_{p} }

where V_{s} is the value of the induced voltage in the secondary coil, V_{p} is he voltage in the primary coil, and N_{s} is the number of turns of the secondary coil, N_{p} is the number of turns in the primary coil.

From the question,

V_{s}  = 9.0 V, V_{p} = 120 V, N_{p} = 240, N_{s} = ?

So that,

           N_{s} = \frac{V_{s}*N_{p}  }{V_{p} }

                = \frac{9 * 240}{120}

               = 18

The number of turns on the secondary output is 18.

2. Power_{rms} = I_{rms} × V_{rms}

                    = 0.4 × 120

                   = 48 W

The rms power delivered to the transformer is 48 Watts.
