Answer:

By Newton's second law, it reduces the magnitude of the acceleration, without changing its direction.

F = unbalanced force

m = mass

a = acceleration

a = F/m

Find the speed of light in each of the following materials. (a) gallium phosphide m/s (b) carbon disulfide m/s (c) benzene

Oksanka [162]

Explanation:

We need to calculate the speed of light in each materials

(I). Gallium phosphide,

The index of refraction of Gallium phosphide is 3.50

Using formula of speed of light

$v=\dfrac{c}{\mu}$ ....(I)

Where, $\mu$ = index of refraction

c = speed of light

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{3.50}$

$v=8.6\times10^{7}\ m/s$

(II) Carbon disulfide,

The index of refraction of Gallium phosphide is 1.63

Put the value in the equation (I)

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.63}$

$v=1.8\times10^{8}\ m/s$

(III). Benzene,

The index of refraction of Gallium phosphide is 1.50

Put the value in the equation (I)

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.50}$

$v=2\times10^{8}\ m/s$

Hence, This is the required solution.

Starting from the front door of your ranch house, you walk 50.0 m due east to your windmill, and then you turn around and slowly

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Average velocity

$v=\frac{d}{t}\\ v=\frac{10m}{70s}\\v=.1428 \frac{m}{s}$

Average speed,

$S=\frac{D}{t}\\ S=\frac{90}{70}\\ S=1.29\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

(a)Average velocity

We have to find the average velocity. We know that velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement with respect to time.

To find the average velocity we have to find the total displacement.

since displacement along east direction is 50m

and displacement along west=40m

so total displacement,

$d=50m-40m\\d=10m$

total time,

$t=28 s+42 s\\t=70 s$

therefore, average velocity

$v=\frac{d}{t}\\ v=\frac{10m}{70s}\\v=.1428 \frac{m}{s}$

(b)Average Speed:

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance to the total time

it means

Average speed= total distance/total time

here total distance,

$D= 50m+40m\\D=90m$

and total time,

$t= 28s+40s\\t=70s$

therefore,

Average speed,

$S=\frac{D}{t}\\ S=\frac{90}{70}\\ S=1.29\frac{m}{s}$

Show that the electric potential along the axis of a uniformly charged disk of radius R and charge density sigma is given by by

OlgaM077 [116]

Explanation:

Area of ring $\ 2{\pi} a d a$

Charge of on ring $d q=-(\ 2{\pi} a d a)$

Charge on disk

$Q=-\left(\pi R^{2}\right)$

$\begin{aligned}d v &=\frac{k d q}{\sqrt{x^{2}+a^{2}}} \\&=2 \pi-k \frac{a d a}{\sqrt{x^{2}+a^{2}}} \\v(1) &=2 \pi c k \int_{0}^{R} \frac{a d a}{\sqrt{x^{2}+a^{2}}} \cdot_{2 \varepsilon_{0}}^{2} R \\&=2 \pi \sigma k[\sqrt{x^{2}+a^{2}}]_{0}^{2} \\&=\frac{2 \pi \sigma}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}}[\sqrt{z^{2}+R^{2}}-(21)] \\&=\frac{\sigma}{2}(\sqrt{2^{2}+R^{2}}-2)\end{aligned}$
