What are the characteristics of refraction​

Physics
1 answer:
mr Goodwill [35]3 years ago
8 0
Characteristics of refraction: When light travels from one medium to another, the frequency of light does not change. However, the velocity and wavelength change. When travelling from one optical medium to another with different refractive indices, a ray of light bends.

(Hope this helps!!)

A force of 500N Is applied to a steel wire of goss_sectional area 0.2m2 the tensele stress is a. 2.5x10 1nm-2 b. 1 0x102nm-2 c.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

the tensile stress of the steel wire is 2.5 x 10³ Nm⁻².

Explanation:

Given;

applied force, F = 5000 N

cross sectional area of the steel wire, A = 0.2 m²

The tensile stress of the steel wire, is calculated as;

\sigma = \frac{F}{A} \\\\\sigma = \frac{500}{0.2} \\\\\sigma = 2500 \ N/m^2\\\\\sigma = 2.5 \ \times \ 10^3 \ Nm^{-2}

Therefore, the tensile stress of the steel wire is 2.5 x 10³ Nm⁻².

Relative to the ground, a car has a velocity of 15.3 m/s, directed due north. Relative to this car, a truck has a velocity of 22
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The magnitude of the truck's velocity relative to the ground is 35.82 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of car relative to ground = 15.3 m/s

Velocity of truck relative to car = 22.5 m/s

We need to calculate the magnitude of the truck's velocity relative to the ground

We need to calculate the x component of the velocity

v_{x}=22.5\cos\theta

v_{x}=22.5\cos52^{\circ}

v_{x}=13.852\ m/s

We need to calculate the y component of the velocity

v_{y}=15.3+22.5\sin\theta

v_{y}=15.3+22.5\sin52^{\circ}

v_{y}=33.030\ m/s

Using Pythagorean theorem

|v|=\sqrt{v_{x}^2+v_{y}^2}

|v|=\sqrt{(13.852)^2+(33.030)^2}

|v|=35.82\ m/s

Hence, The magnitude of the truck's velocity relative to the ground is 35.82 m/s.

Distinguish between the key features of Charles's Law and
Alborosie

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Charles law states that the volume and temperature of a fixed amount of a gas is directly proportional to each other provided that pressure is held constant.

Boyle's law states that the volume and pressure of a fixed amount of a gas are inversely proportional to each other provided that temperature is held constant.

a) Constant property:

In Charles law, pressure is kept constant while in Boyle's law, temperature is held constant.

b) Varying properties:

In Charles law, volume and temperature are varying while in Boyle's law, pressure and volume are varying.

c) Type of variance:

In Charles law we have a direct variance while in Boyle's law we have an indirect variance.

d) Charles law is given as:

\frac{V_1}{T_1} =\frac{V_2}{T_2}

Boyle's law is given as:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2
