Answer:

see below

Explanation:

the first condition means that the light ray inside the optically denser medium hits the surface of the optically less dense medium.

this in simple words means, light must be travelling from am optically denser medium to an optically less dense medium

hope this helps :)

Answer:

An object at rest is described by Newton's First Law of Motion. An object in static equilibrium has zero net force acting upon it. The First Condition of Equilibrium is that the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body vanishes.

A 40 g ball rolls around a 30 cm -diameter L-shaped track, shown in the figure, (Figure 1)at 60 rpm . What is the magnitude of t

levacccp [35]

Answer:

0.47 N

Explanation:

Here we have a ball in motion along a circular track.

For an object in circular motion, there is a force that "pulls" the object towards the centre of the circle, and this force is responsible for keeping the object in circular motion.

This force is called centripetal force, and its magnitude is given by:

$F=m\omega^2 r$

where

m is the mass of the object

$\omega$ is the angular velocity

r is the radius of the circle

For the ball in this problem we have:

m = 40 g = 0.04 kg is the mass of the ball

$\omega =60 rpm \cdot \frac{2\pi rad/rev}{60 s/min}=6.28 rad/s$ is the angular velocity

r = 30 cm = 0.30 m is the radius of the circle

Substituting, we find the force:

$F=(0.040)(6.28)^2(0.30)=0.47 N$

Two tiny particles having charges of +5.00 μC and +7.00 μC are placed along the x-axis. The +5.00-µC particle is at x = 0.00 cm,

Liula [17]

Answer:

The third charged particle must be placed at x = 0.458 m = 45.8 cm

Explanation:

To solve this problem we apply Coulomb's law:

Two point charges (q₁, q₂) separated by a distance (d) exert a mutual force (F) whose magnitude is determined by the following formula:

$F = \frac{k*q_1*q_2}{d^2}$ Formula (1)

F: Electric force in Newtons (N)

K : Coulomb constant in N*m²/C²

q₁, q₂: Charges in Coulombs (C)

d: distance between the charges in meters (m)

Equivalence

1μC= 10⁻⁶C

1m = 100 cm

Data

K = 8.99 * 10⁹ N*m²/C²

q₁ = +5.00 μC = +5.00 * 10⁻⁶ C

q₂= +7.00 μC = +7.00 * 10⁻⁶ C

d₁ = x (m)

d₂ = 1-x (m)

Problem development

Look at the attached graphic.

We assume a positive charge q₃ so F₁₃ and F₂₃ are repulsive forces and must be equal so that the net force is zero:

We use formula (1) to calculate the forces F₁₃ and F₂₃

$F_{13} = \frac{k*q_1*q_3}{d_1^2}$

$F_{23} = \frac{k*q_2*q_3}{d_2^2}$

F₁₃ = F₂₃

$\frac{k*q_1*q_3}{d_1^2} = \frac{k*q_2*q_3}{d_2^2}$ We eliminate k and q₃ on both sides

$\frac{q_1}{d_1^2}= \frac{q_2}{d_2^2}$

$\frac{q_1}{x^2}=\frac{q_2}{(1-x)^2}$

$\frac{5*10^{-6}}{x^2}=\frac{7*10^{-6}}{(1-x)^2}$ We eliminate 10⁻⁶ on both sides

$(1-x)^2 = \frac{7}{5} x^2$

$1-2x+x^2=\frac{7}{5} x^2$

$5-10x+5x^2=7 x^2$

$2x^2+10x-5=0$

We solve the quadratic equation:

$x_1 = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} = \frac{-10+\sqrt{10^2-4*2*(-5)} }{2*2} = 0.458m$

$x_2 = \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} = \frac{-10-\sqrt{10^2-4*2*(-5)} }{2*2} = -5.458m$

In the option x₂, F₁₃ and F₂₃ will go in the same direction and will not be canceled, therefore we take x₁ as the correct option since at that point the forces are in opposite way .

x = 0.458m = 45.8cm

3. How do astronomers explain the lack of a meteorite in Tunguska? What evidence exists to support this

Vaselesa [24]

No traces of a meteorite were found, it many scientists concluded that the culprit was a comet. Comets, which are essentially muddy ice balls, could cause such a devastation and leave no trace.

But now, 105 years later, scientists have revealed that the Tunguska devastation was indeed caused by a meteorite. A group of Ukrainian, German, and American scientists have identified its microscopic remains. Why it took them so many years makes for a fascinating tale about the limits of science and how we are pushing them.
