a cone is constructed by cutting a sector from a circular sheet of metal with radius . the cut sheet is then folded up and welde
Svet_ta [14]

The expression for the radius and height of the cone can be obtained from

the property of a function at the maximum point.

  • The \ radius, \ of \ the \ base \ of \ the \ cone \ is \ \sqrt{ \dfrac{3}{4}} \times radius \ of \ circular \ sheet \ metal
  • The height of the cone is half the length of the radius of the circular sheet metal.

Reasons:

The part used to form the cone = A sector of a circle

The length of the arc of the sector = The perimeter of the circle formed by the base of the cone.

Volume \ of \ a \ cone = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot  \pi \cdot r^3 \cdot h

  • Volume \ of \ a \ cone, \, V = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot  \pi \cdot r^3 \cdot \sqrt{(s^2- r^2)}

θ/360·2·π·s = 2·π·r

Where;

s = The radius of he circular sheet metal

h = s² - r²

  • \dfrac{dV}{dr} = \dfrac{d}{dr}  \left(\dfrac{1}{3} \cdot  \pi \cdot r^3 \cdot \sqrt{(s^2- r^2)}\right) = \dfrac{\pi \cdot (3 \cdot r^2 \cdot  s^2 - 4 \cdot r^4)}{\sqrt{(s^2- r^2)}} = 0

3·r²·s² - 4·r⁴ = 0

3·r²·s² = 4·r⁴

3·s² = 4·r²

\underline{\left  \right. The \ radius, \, r =\sqrt{ \dfrac{3}{4}} \cdot s}

\underline{The \ height, \, h =\sqrt{s^2 - \dfrac{3}{4}\cdot s^2} = \dfrac{s}{2}}}

A light beam has speed c in vacuum and speed v in a certain plastic. The index of refraction n of this plastic is
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

n = \frac{c}{v}

Explanation:

Refractive Index: It is a measure to find how fast the light travels through a medium. It is ration of the speed of light in vacuum to speed of light in the medium. Speed of light is not constant and varies depending on the density of the medium.

In vacuum the speed of light is 300000 km/s and is denoted by c. When the light beam enters any medium the speed will decrease. Here it is given that the speed in plastic is v. Thus the refractive index(n) is given as:

n = \frac{c}{v}

It is a dimensionless no.
