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 .

An object with velocity 141 ft/s has a kinetic energy of 1558.71 ft∙lbf, on a planet whose gravity is 31.5 ft/s2. What is its
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The mass of the object is 5.045 lbm.

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of the object, K.E = 1558.71 ft.lbf

velocity of the object, V = 141 ft/s

The kinetic energy of the object is calculated as;

K.E = \frac{1}{2} mV^2\\\\mV^2 = 2K.E\\\\m = \frac{2K.E}{V^2} \\\\1 \ lbf = 32.174 \ lbm.ft/s^2\\\\m  = \frac{2 \ \times \ 1558.71 \ ft.lbf \ \times \ 32.174 \ lbm.ft/s^2 }{(141 \ ft/s)2 \ \  \times \ \ \ \ 1   \ lbf\ }

m  = \frac{(2 \ \times \ 1558.71  \ \times \ 32.174) \ lbm.ft^2/s^2 }{(141 )^2\ ft^2/s^2 }\\\\m = \frac{(2 \ \times \ 1558.71  \ \times \ 32.174) \ lbm }{(141 )^2 }\\\\m = 5.045 \ lbm

Therefore, the mass of the object is 5.045 lbm.
