A laser beam is incident at an angle of 30.0° from the vertical onto a solution of corn syrup in water. The beam is refracted to

dimaraw [331]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Angle of incidence, $i=30^{\circ}$

Angle of refraction, $r=19.24^{\circ}$

a.Refractive index of air, $n_1=1$

We know that

$n_2sinr=n_1sini$

$n_2=\frac{n_1sin i}{sin r}=\frac{sin30}{sin19.24}=1.517$

b.Wavelength of red light in vacuum, $\lambda=632.8nm=632.8\times 10^{-9} m$

$1nm=10^{-9} m$

Wavelength in the solution, $\lambda'=\frac{\lambda}{n_2}$

$\lambda'=\frac{632.8}{1.517}=417nm$

c.Frequency does not change .It remains same in vacuum and solution.

Frequency, $\nu=\frac{c}{\lamda}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{632.8\times 10^{-9}}$

Where $c=3\times 10^8 m/s$

Frequency, $\nu=4.74\times 10^{14}Hz$

d.Speed in the solution, $v=\frac{c}{n_2}$

$v=\frac{3\times 10^8}{1.517}=1.98\times 10^8m/s$

What are three observations an astronaut might make while viewing Russia at night

Lunna [17]

1. Physical size of Russia compared to other countries, despite a lack of visible borders from space.

2. Part of Russia's outline would likely be obscured by the various clouds and objects in the stratosphere; this would allow the astronaut to view potential cloud and weather patterns on earth.

3. An astronaut could see outlines of Russia's geography such as mountain ranges.

Hope that it helps :)

Please help me guys never mind the calculations

The shape is connected in parallel so;

5.1) Ans;

$\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} \\ \frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{1}{R} = \frac{3 + 2}{6} = \frac{5}{6} \\ R = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2 \: \: ohm$

5.2) Ans;

$\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} \\ \frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{10} \\ \frac{1}{R} = \frac{5 + 4}{40} = \frac{9}{40} \\ R = \frac{40}{9} = 4.4 \: \: ohm$
