Answer:

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Final velocity, v = 12m/s

Time, t = 5 seconds

Acceleration, a = 1.5m/s²

To find the initial velocity, we would use the first equation of motion.

V = U + at

Where;

V is the final velocity.

U is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

12 = U + 1.5*5

12 = U + 7.5

U = 12 - 7.5

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s

A ray moving in plastic at 62.9 deg enters water, where it bends to 70.9 deg. What is the index of refraction of the plastic?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

refractive index of plastic is 1.42

Explanation:

When light ray enters from one medium to other medium then due to transition of light it bends away or towards the normal, this phenomenon is known as refraction of light

So here we know that

n_1 sin i = n_2 sin r

here we have

n_2 = \frac{4}{3}

i = 62.9^o

r = 70.9^o

now we have

n_1 sin62.9 = (\frac{4}{3}) sin70.9

n_1 = 1.42
