What is denser medium?​

Physics
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: A medium in which speed of light is more is known as optically rarer medium and a medium in which speed of light is less is said to be optically denser medium. For example in air and water, air is raer and water is a denser medium.

Stop to Think 7.1 Which one is greater- the attraction of the Earth on 1 kg lead or the attraction of 1 kg of led
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1 kg lead to earth is greater attraction as mass of earth is much more than 1kg lead.

Explanation:

Objects with more mass have more gravity. Gravity also gets weaker with distance. So, the closer objects are to each other, the stronger their gravitational pull is. Earth's gravity comes from all its mass

The resistance between 2 points in an electrical circuit is 1.1 Ω. What additional resistance
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

the new resister is 11 ohms.

Explanation:

Set it  up like this.

1/x + 1/1.1 = 1                    Subtract 1/1.1 from both sides

1/x = 1 - 1/1.1

1 - 1/1.1 = 1/11

1/x = 1/11                          Cross multiply

11 = x

If 1/11 bothers you, you could do it it another way.

1 - 1/1.1 = (1.1 - 1 ) / 1.1 = 0.1 / 1.1  Multiply top and bottom by 10

0.1*10/(1.1 * 10 ) = 1 / 11

Two resistors are to be combined in parallelto form an equivalent resistance of 400Ω. The resistors are takenfrom available stoc
vivado [14]

Answer:

ΔR_{e} = 84   Ω,     R_{e} = (40 ± 8) 10¹   Ω

Explanation:

The formula for parallel equivalent resistance is

          1 / R_{e} = ∑ 1 / Ri

In our case we use a resistance of each

           R₁ = 500 ± 50  Ω

          R₂ = 2000 ± 5%

This percentage equals

        0.05 = ΔR₂ / R₂

        ΔR₂ = 0.05 R₂

        ΔR₂ = 0.05 2000 = 100   Ω

We write the resistance

        R₂ = 2000 ± 100    Ω

We apply the initial formula

        1 / R_{e} = 1 / R₁ + 1 / R₂

        1 / R_{e} = 1/500 + 1/2000 = 0.0025

        R_{e}  = 400    Ω

Let's look for the error  (uncertainly) of Re

      R_{e} = R₁R₂ / (R₁ + R₂)

       R’= R₁ + R₂

       R_{e} = R₁R₂ / R’

Let's look for the uncertainty of this equation

      ΔR_{e} / R_{e} = ΔR₁ / R₁ + ΔR₂ / R₂ + ΔR’/ R’

The uncertainty of a sum is

      ΔR’= ΔR₁ + ΔR₂

We substitute the values

     ΔR_{e} / 400 = 50/500 + 100/2000 + (50 +100) / (500 + 2000)

     ΔR_{e} / 400 = 0.1 + 0.05 + 0.06

     ΔR_{e} = 0.21 400

     ΔR_{e} = 84   Ω

Let's write the resistance value with the correct significant figures

    R_{e} = (40 ± 8) 10¹   Ω

An oscillator consists of a block of mass 0.628 kg connected to a spring. When set into oscillation with amplitude 27 cm, the os
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

T=0.372 s, f=2.7 Hz, w=16.9 rad/s, k=179.2 N/m, v= 8.78 m/s, F= 48.4 N

Explanation:

a.)

Period: It is already given in the question "oscillator repeats its motion every 0.372 s".

So T=0.372 s

b)

frequency= f = 1/ T

f = 1/ 0.372

f=2.7 Hz

c).

Angular frequency= w= 2πf

w= 2*π*2.7

w=16.9 rad/s

d)

Spring Constant:

As w=\sqrt{k/m}

⇒w²= k/m

⇒k= m*w²

⇒k= 0.628 * 16.9² N/m

⇒k=179.2 N/m

e)

The mass will have maximum speed when it passes through the mean position.

At mean position

Maximum elastic potential energy = Maximum kinetic energy

1/2 k A² = 1/2 m v²    ( A is amplitude of oscillation)

⇒ v=\sqrt{k A^2/m}

⇒ v= \sqrt{179.2 * 0.27/ 0.628}\

⇒ v= 8.78 m/s

f)

Maximum force will be exerted on the block when it is at maximum distance.

F= k* A   ( A is amplitude of oscillation)

F= 179.2 * 0.27 N

F= 48.4 N

A metal cylinder with a mass of 4.20 kg is attached to a spring and is able to oscillate horizontally with negligible friction.
kherson [118]

Answer:

a) k = 120 N / m

, b)    f = 0.851 Hz

, c)  v = 1,069 m / s

, d)  x = 0

, e)  a = 5.71 m / s²

, f)   x = 0.200 m

, g)  Em = 2.4 J

, h) v = -1.01 m / s

Explanation:

a) Hooke's law is

         F = k x

         k = F / x

          k = 24.0 / 0.200

          k = 120 N / m

b) the angular velocity of the simple harmonic movement is

        w = √ k / m

        w = √ (120 / 4.2)

        w = 5,345 rad / s

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

       w = 2π f

        f = w / 2π

        f = 5.345 / 2π

        f = 0.851 Hz

c) the equation that describes the movement is

        x = A cos (wt + Ф)

As the body is released without initial velocity, Ф = 0

        x = 0.2 cos wt

Speed ​​is

       v = dx / dt

       v = -A w sin wt

The speed is maximum for sin wt = ±1

       v = A w

       v = 0.200 5.345

       v = 1,069 m / s

d) when the function sin wt = -1 the function cos wt = 0, whereby the position for maximum speed is

       x = A cos wt = 0

       x = 0

e) the acceleration is

       a = d²x / dt² = dv / dt

       a = - Aw² cos wt

The acceleration is maximum when cos wt = ± 1

       a = A w²

        a = 0.2   5.345

        a = 5.71 m / s²

f) the position for this acceleration is

       x = A cos wt

       x = A

       x = 0.200 m

g) Mechanical energy is

        Em = ½ k A²

        Em = ½ 120 0.2²

       Em = 2.4 J

h) the position is

         x = 1/3 A

Let's calculate the time to reach this point

         x = A cos wt

        1/3 A = A cos 5.345t

         t = 1 / w cos⁻¹(1/3)

The angles are in radians

t = 1.23 / 5,345

t = 0.2301 s

Speed ​​is

v = -A w sin wt

v = -0.2 5.345 sin (5.345 0.2301)

v = -1.01 m / s

i) acceleration

a = -A w² sin wt

a = - 0.2 5.345² cos (5.345 0.2301)

      a = -1.91 m / s²
