The object takes 0.5 seconds to complete one rotation, so its rotational speed is 1/0.5 rot/s = 2 rot/s.

Convert this to linear speed; for each rotation, the object travels a distance equal to the circumference of its path, or 2<em>π</em> (1.2 m) = 2.4<em>π</em> m ≈ 7.5 m, so that

2 rot/s = (2 rot/s) • (2.4<em>π</em> m/rot) = 4.8<em>π</em> m/s ≈ 15 m/s

thus giving it a centripetal acceleration of

<em>a</em> = (4.8<em>π</em> m/s)² / (1.2 m) ≈ 190 m/s².

Then the tension in the rope is

<em>T</em> = (50 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ 9500 N.

 Why are radio waves safer to humans than X- Rays
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since X-rays are high (energy) frequency photons and radio waves are composed of low (energy) frequency photons, X-rays are more energetic and can do more harm to organic materials (such as cells).

Complete the ray diagram and label incident ray, refracted ray, angle of incidence, and angle of refraction ​
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Solution

verified

Verified by Toppr

(a) The labelled diagram is shown.

(b) The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. Refractive index of diamond is the ratio of the speed of light in air to the speed of light in diamond.i.e.,

μ=  

Speedoflightindiamond

Speedoflightinair

​

 

and, the ratio of these velocities is 2.42. i.e., This means that the speed of light in diamond will reduce by a factor of 2.42 as compared to its speed in air. In other words, the speed of light in diamond is  

1/2.42

times the speed of light in vacuum.

Explanation:

a) Draw and label the diagram given :

  (i) Incident ray

  (ii) Refracted ray

  (iii) Emergent ray

  (iv) Angle of reflection

  (v) Angle of deviation

  (v) Angle of emergence

(b) The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. What is the meaning of this statement in relation to speed of light?
