A black lift of amber is placed in water and a laser beam travels from the water through the amber. The angle of incidence is 35

degrees while the angle of refraction is 24 degrees. What is the index of refraction of amber
Physics

horsena [70]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

refractive index of ember = sin of angle of incidence / sin of angle of refraction

= sin 35 / sin24

= .5735 / .4067

= 1.41

This is refractive index of ember with respect to water

refractive index of ember with respect to water

= wμe = μe / μw

μe = wμe x  μw

= 1.33 x 1.41

= 1.87

refractive index of ember with respect to air = 1.87 .

One of the important waste products of photosynthesis is oxygen gas. Where does this oxygen gas come from?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

End product of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process that plants undergo in the manufacture of their food. This is done in the presence of sunlight which is trapped by their coloring pigment called chlorophyll and reactants such as Carbon dioxide and Water.

6CO2+6H2O= C6H12O6+ 6O2

The oxygen gas which is a waste product of photosynthesis is released into the atmosphere and used by animals in respiration.

Find the potential energy associated with a 61-kg hiker atop New Hampshire's Mount Washington, 1900 m above sea level. Take the
Natali [406]

Answer:

The potential energy of the hiker is 1.13\times 10^6\ J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the hiker, m = 61 kg

Height above sea level, h = 1900 m

We need to find the potential energy associated with a 61-kg hiker atop New Hampshire's Mount Washington. The potential energy is given by :

E=mgh

g is the acceleration due to gravity

E=61\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1900\ m\\\\E=1.13\times 10^6\ J

So, the potential energy of the hiker is 1.13\times 10^6\ J. Hence, this is the required solution.

State the term used to describe the turning force exerted by the man
ozzi

]A force called the effort force is applied at one point on the lever in order to move an object, known as the resistance force, located at some other point on the lever.

The way levers work is by multiplying the effort exerted by the user. Specifically, to lift and balance an object, the effort force the user applies multiplied by its distance to the fulcrum must equal the load force multiplied by its distance to the fulcrum. Consequently, the greater the distance between the effort force and the fulcrum, the heavier a load can be lifted with the same effort force.
