<h3>Answer:  22.5 m/s</h3>

=====================================================

Work Shown:

acceleration = ( finalVelocity - initialVelocity )/(change in time)

1.5 = (60 - x)/(25)

1.5*25 = 60-x

37.5 = 60-x

x = 60-37.5

x = 22.5

The initial velocity is 22.5 m/s

A light ray traveling through medium 1, index of refraction n1n1n_1 = 1.75, reaches the interface between medium 1 and medium 2,
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

θ₁ = 35.32°

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of medium 1 = n₁ = 1.75

refractive index of medium 2 = n₂ = 1.24

condition to describe the refracted angle

 \theta_{refracted} + \theta_{reflected}=90^0

 \theta_2 = 90^0-\theta_1...(1)

Using Snell's Law

   n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

θ₁ , θ₂ is the angle of incidence and refractive index

n₁. n₂ is the refractive index medium 1 and medium 2

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin θ₂

From equation (1)

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin (90-θ₁)

   1.75 sin θ₁ = 1.24 cos θ₁

      tan θ₁ = 0.708

         θ₁ = 35.32°

Hence, angle of incidence is equal to θ₁ = 35.32°

A brass alloy is known to have a yield strength of 240 MPa (35,000 psi), a tensile strength of 310 MPa (45,000 psi), and an elas
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Here Strain due to testing is greater than the strain due to yielding that is why computation of load is not possible.

Explanation:

Given that

Yield strength ,Sy= 240 MPa

Tensile strength = 310 MPa

Elastic modulus ,E= 110 GPa

L=380 mm

ΔL = 1.9 mm

Lets find strain:

Case 1 :

Strain due to elongation (testing)

ε = ΔL/L

ε = 1.9/380

ε = 0.005

Case 2 :

Strain due to yielding

\varepsilon' =\dfrac{S_y}{E}

\varepsilon' =\dfrac{240}{110\times 1000}

ε '=0.0021

Here Strain due to testing is greater than the strain due to yielding that is why computation of load is not possible.

For computation of load strain due to testing should be less than the strain due to yielding.

Fluid pressure changes with depth are assumed to be linear. Which statement best explains why this does not hold true for atmosp
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure due to fluid is directly proportional to the depth of fluid, density of the fluid and the value of acceleration due to gravity.

P = h d g

Where, h is the depth, d be the density and g be the acceleration due to gravity.

If we talk about teh atmospheric pressure, the density of air goes on decreasing as we go up and up. o we cannot say that it is directly depends only on the depth of air, it also depends on the changing density of air.

Calculate the induced electric field (in V/m) in a 40-turn coil with a diameter of 18 cm that is placed in a spatially uniform m
kozerog [31]

Answer:

ε = 6.617 V

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of turns; N = 40 turns

Diameter;D = 18cm = 0.18m

magnetic field; B = 0.65 T

Time;t = 0.1 s

The formula for the induced electric field(E.M.F) is given by;

ε = |-NAB/t|

A is area

ε is induced electric field

While N,B and t remain as earlier described.

Area = π(d²/4) = π(0.18²/4) = 0.02545

Thus;

ε = |-40 × 0.02545 × 0.65/0.1|

ε = 6.617 V

(we ignore the negative sign because we have to take the absolute value)
