Refractive index is the ration of sin i to sin r where i is the incident angle and r is the refraction angle.
Therefore, refractive index = sin 79.5 / sin 39.6
= 1.542
The refractive index may be given by the ratio of refractive index of medium 2 to refractive index of medium 1.
Therefore, 1.542 = n/1.0003
n = 1.5425
≈ 1.54
Medium 2 is sodium chloride, refractive index of 1.54
Answer:
It is not a property of light. It is your eyes and brain.
Specifically, the three kinds of cone cells in our eye that are sensitive to different ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum. The fact that there are three means that color is three dimensional, and is the reason the pure colors form a circle even though the spectrum of wavelengths is linear.
Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum; light waves of different frequencies and wavelengths are distinguished as colors by the human eye. A prism can separate the colors of white light (dispersion) because different frequencies of light have different refractive indices for a given material.
Answer: V = 15 m/s
Explanation:
As stationary speed gun emits a microwave beam at 2.10*10^10Hz. It reflects off a car and returns 1030 Hz higher. The observed frequency the car will be experiencing will be addition of the two frequency. That is,
F = 2.1 × 10^10 + 1030 = 2.100000103×10^10Hz
Using doppler effect formula
F = C/ ( C - V) × f
Where
F = observed frequency
f = source frequency
C = speed of light = 3×10^8
V = speed of the car
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
2.100000103×10^10 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 -V) × 2.1×10^10
2.100000103×10^10/2.1×10^10 = 3×108/(3×10^8 - V)
1.000000049 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 - V)
Cross multiply
300000014.7 - 1.000000049V = 3×10^8
Collect the like terms
1.000000049V = 14.71429
Make V the subject of formula
V = 14.71429/1.000000049
V = 14.7 m/s
The speed of the car is 15 m/s approximately.
