DEFINE REFRACTION? describe how a ray of light is refracted when it passes through a glass block​

Physics
1 answer:
jek_recluse [69]2 years ago

When a ray passes from air into glass the direction in which the light ray is travelling changes. The light ray appears to bend as it as it passes through the surface of the glass. ... This 'bending of a ray of light' when it passes from one substance into another substance is called refraction.

A particle with charge 7.76×10^(−8)C is moving in a region where there is a uniform 0.700 T magnetic field in the +x-direction.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The  z-component of the force is  \= F_z  =  0.00141 \ N    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

          The charge on the particle is q =  7.76 *0^{-8} \  C    

           The magnitude of the magnetic field is  B =  0.700\r i \ T

            The  velocity of the particle toward the x-direction is  v_x  =  -1.68*10^{4}\r  i  \ m/s

           The  velocity of the particle toward the y-direction is

v_y  =  -2.61*10^{4}\ \r j  \ m/s

           The  velocity of the particle toward the z-direction is

v_y  =  -5.85*10^{4}\ \r k  \ m/s

Generally the force on this particle is mathematically represented as

          \= F  =  q (\= v   X  \= B )

So  we have    

          \= F  =  q ( v_x \r  i + v_y \r  j  +  v_z \r k  )  \ \ X \ (  \= B i)

         \= F  = q (v_y B(-\r  k) + v_z B\r j)      

  substituting values

       \= F  = (7.7 *10^{-8})([ (-2.61*10^{4}) (0.700)](-\r  z) + [(5.58*10^{4}) (0.700)]\r y)    

      \= F=  0.00303\ \r j +0.00141\ \r k                  

So the z-component of the force is  \= F_z  =  0.00141 \ N

A distance of 0.002 m separates two objects of equal mass. If the gravitational force between them is
Alika [10]

Answer: 24.97 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects of masses M1, and M2 respectively, and separated by a distance R, is:

F = G*(M1*M2)/R^2

Where G is the gravitational constant:

G = 6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)

In this case, we know that

R = 0.002m

F = 0.0104 N

and that M1 = M2 = M

And we want to find the value of M, then we can replace those values in the equation to get

0.0104 N = (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2))*(M*M)/(0.002m)^2

(0.0104 N)*(0.002m)^2/(6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)) = M^2

623.69 kg^2 = M^2

√(623.69 kg^2) = M = 24.97 kg

This means that the mass of each object is 24.97 kg

An object weighing 49 N is dropped from a height of 30 m. It is found to be moving with a velocity of 24m/s just before it hits
faltersainse [42]

The  frictional force will be 0.22N.

<h3>What is Frictional force?</h3>

Frictional force is the force generated between two surfaces that are in contact and slide against each other.

Given,

Weight=4N

mass =4.9/9.8=0.5kg

Hieght =30m

velocity=24m/s

Acceration , v²-u²=2as

24²/2×30 =a , u is zero

 a= 1.5m/s²



By Using conservation  of energy ,

30F+1/2mv²=mgh

30F=1150-144

F= 6/30

F=0.2N

The force will be 0.2N
