Snell's Law: Light traveling through water comes to a glass surface at an angle of incidence of

Physics
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1. The best definition of refraction is ____.

a. passing through a boundary

b. bouncing off a boundary

c. changing speed at a boundary

d. changing direction when crossing a boundary

 

Answer: D

Bouncing off a boundary (choice b) is reflection. Refraction involves passing through a boundary (choice a) and changing speed (choice c); however, a light ray can exhibit both of these behaviors without undergoing refraction (for instance, if it approaches the boundary along the normal). Refraction of light must involve a change in direction; the path must be altered at the boundary.

What likely happens to the hart rate as the cardiac mucle gets stronger
Kaylis [27]
The heart rate will likely decrease. As the cardiac muscle, or heart, gets stronger, it takes less effort to pump more blood. As a result, the heart will probably beat less, decreasing the heart rate. This is why athletes often have lower heart rates than the average person.

It has been suggested that rotating cylinders several miles in length and several miles in diameter be placed in space and used
stepladder [879]

Answer:

the required revolution per hour is 28.6849

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that the expression for the linear acceleration in terms of angular velocity is;

a_{c} = rω²

ω² = a_{c} / r

ω = √( a_{c} / r )

where r is the radius of the cylinder

ω is the angular velocity

given that; the centripetal acceleration equal to the acceleration of gravity a a_{c}  = g = 9.8 m/s²

so, given that, diameter = 4.86 miles = 4.86 × 1609 = 7819.74 m

Radius r = Diameter / 2 = 7819.74 m / 2 = 3909.87 m

so we substitute

ω = √( 9.8 m/s² / 3909.87 m )

ω = √0.002506477 s²  

ω = 0.0500647 ≈ 0.05 rad/s  

we know that; 1 rad/s = 9.5493 revolution per minute

ω = 0.05 × 9.5493 RPM

ω = 0.478082 RPM  

1 rpm = 60 rph  

so  

ω = 0.478082 × 60

ω = 28.6849  revolutions per hour  

Therefore, the required revolution per hour is 28.6849

What is the magnitude of an electric field that balances the weight of a plastic sphere of mass 2.1 g that has been charged to -
Liula [17]

Answer:

Electric field, E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of sphere, m = 2.1 g = 0.0021 kg

Charge, q=-3\ nC=-3\times 10^{-9}\ C

We need to find the magnitude of electric field that balances the weight of a plastic spheres. So,

ma=qE

a = g

E=\dfrac{mg}{q}

E=\dfrac{0.0021\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{-3\times 10^{-9}\ C}

E=6860000\ N/C

or

E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Hence, the magnitude of electric field that balances its weight is 6.86\times 10^6\ N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.
