<span>A hockey puck is sliding on frictionless ice on an infinite hockey rink.
Its speed is 36 km/hour. How far does the puck slide in 10 seconds ?

(36 km/hr) x (1,000 m/km) x (1 hr/3600 sec) x (10sec) =

(36 x 1,000 x 10 / 3,600) meters = <em>100 meters</em>

What is the puck's speed in miles per hour ?

(36 km/hr) x (0.6214 mi/km) = <em>22.37 mi/hr

</em></span>

An ideal gas is enclosed in a piston, and 1600 J of work is done on the gas. As this happens, the internal energy of the gas inc

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

- 1100 J heat flows out

Explanation:

dW = - 1600 J (as work is done on the gas)

dU = 500 J

dQ = ?

According to the first law of thermodynamics

dQ = dU + dW

dQ = 500 - 1600

dQ = - 1100 J

As heat is negative so it flows out.

A ray of light is incident on an air/water interface.

elixir [45]

Answer:

$\theta_2=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{n_1\ sin\theta_1}{n_2})$

Explanation:

Given that,

The ray makes an angle of 32 degrees with respect to the normal of the surface.

The refractive index of air, $n_1=1$

The refractive index of water, $n_2=1.33$

Snell's law is given by :

$n_1\ sin\theta_1=n_2\ sin\theta_2$

$sin\theta_2=\dfrac{n_1\ sin\theta_1}{n_2}$

$\theta_2=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{n_1\ sin\theta_1}{n_2})$

So, option (4) is correct. Hence, this is the required solution.
