Answer:

36.11 degrees

Explanation:

index of refraction n = sin i/sinr

i is the angle of incidence

r is the angle of refraction

Substitute into the expression

1.39 = sin55/sin(r)

1.39 = 0.8191/sin(r)

sin(r) = 0.8191/1.39

sin(r) = 0.5893

r = arcsin(0.5893)

r = 36.11

hence the angle of refraction of light is 36.11 degrees

a 42.3 kg girl and a 7.93 kg sled are on the surface of a frozen lake, 15.0m apart and linked by a rope, but not moving yet. the
ycow [4]

Answer:

they meet from the girl's original position at: 2.37 (meters)

Explanation:

We need to use the Newton's law, exactly the second law that relate force, mass and acceleration as: F=m*a with this we can get both accelerations; solving for acceleration a=\frac{F}{m}. Now a_{girl}=\frac{5.76}{42.3}=0.14 (m/s^{2}) anda_{sled}=\frac{5.76}{7.93}=0.73(m/s^{2}). Then knowing that they both travel at the same time and assuming that the distance among the girl and the sled is: 15.0-x, so, x=\frac{1}{2}*a_{girl}*t^{2} and15.0-x=\frac{1}{2}*a_{sled}*t^{2}, solving for the time we get:t=\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a_{girl} } } and t=\sqrt{\frac{2*(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} } } with this equations we solving for the x that is the distance between the girl and the sled after the apply the force and we get:\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a_{girl}}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} }. Finally we get:\frac{x}{a_{girl} }=\frac{(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} } and replacing the values we have got:\frac{x}{0.14} =\frac{(15.0-x)}{0.73} so 5.33*x=15-x so x=2.37 (meters).

An area experiences thunderstorms with high winds and a drop in temperature. Which weather event most likely occurred? A. A stat
gavmur [86]

Answer:

C a fast-moving cold front moved through the area.

Explanation:

This is because, since there is a there is a thunderstorm and high winds in the area, this can only be caused by a fast moving front. Also there is a temperature drop, this can only be caused by the fast moving cold front since a cold front has a low temperature.

Thus, for the area to experience thunderstorms with high winds and a drop in temperature, <u>a fast-moving cold front moved through the area.</u>

A total charge of 0.009 passes through a cross sectional area of a nichrome wire in 3.5 s. What is the current in the wire?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:0.003 amperes

Explanation:

Quantity of charge=0.009

Time=3.5seconds

current=quantity of charge ➗ time

Current=0.009 ➗ 3.5

Current=0.003 amperes
