Answer: 1.88

Explanation

Applying Snell’s Law, sin(1)/sin(2) = n(2)/n(1), where n is the index of refraction and sin 1 and 2 being of incidence and refracted respectively.

1) sin35/sin24 = n(2)/1.33
2) 1.41 = n(2)/1.33
3) n(2) = 1.41 x 1.33
4) n(2) = 1.88

Hope this helps :)

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

y_{hubble} = 77\ \ m

y_{aceribo} = 1.1*10^6 \ \ m

Explanation:

what is the smallest crater that each of these telescopes could resolve on our moon?

For moon ;

s = 3.8 × 10 ⁸ m

y = 1.22 λs/D

where;

λ = 400 nm = 400× 10 ⁻⁹

D = 2.4 m

The smallest crater for the hubble space is calculated as follows:

y_{hubble} = 1.22*400*10^{-9}*3.8*10^8/2.4

y_{hubble} = 77\ \ m

For Aceribo ;

y = 1.22 λs/D

where :

λ = 75 cm = 0.75 m

D = 305 m

y_{acerbo} = 1.22*0.75 *3.8*10^8/305

y_{aceribo} = 1.1*10^6 \ \ m

what are the three types of solenoids, which one is the most common, and which one is used in pinball machines?​
amm1812

Answer:

The types of solenoids are: AC Laminated Solenoid , DC Solenoid , Linear Solenoid ,and Rotary Solenoid.

Explanation:

  • The main purpose of solenoid is to generate the controlled magnetic field that can be used in many forms.
  • The most common use of solenoid is done in the pinball game.
  • The Flipper solenoid that uses the two coil are used in the mechanism of pinball machines.
  • One coil of the solenoid is supplied with high electric current where as other one has the weak current flowing through it.

The distance recorded for riding a motorcycle on its rear wheel without stopping is more than 320 km! Suppose the rider in this
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

<h3>14.97m/s</h3>

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity of the car u = 8m/s

Distance travelled by the rider S = 40m

Acceleration a = 2m/s²

Required

rider's velocity after the acceleration v

Using the equation of motion

v² = u²+2as

v² = 8²+2(2)(40)

v² = 64+160

v² = 224

v = √224

v = 14.97m/s

Hence the rider's velocity after the acceleration is 14.97m/s
