Answer:

1.3.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Sine of incident angle (Sine i) = 0.217

Sine of refracted angle (Sine r) = 0.173

Refractive index (n) =?

From snell's law, the Refractive index is simply defined as the ratio of the sine of the incident angle to sine of the refracted angle. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Refractive index = Sine of incident angle / sine of refracted angle

n = Sine i / Sine r

With the above formula, we can obtain index of refraction as shown below:

Sine of incident angle (Sine i) = 0.217

Sine of refracted angle (Sine r) = 0.173

Refractive index (n) =?

n = Sine i / Sine r

n = 0.217 / 0.173

n = 1.3

Thus, the index of refraction is 1.3.

A bomb at rest at the origin of an xy-coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of mass
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) It is given that bomb was at rest initially , so ,  its momentum before the explosion was zero.

b ) We shall apply law of conservation of momentum along x and y direction separately because no external force acts on the bomb.

If v be the velocity of the third part along a direction making angle θ

with x axis ,

x component of v = vcosθ

So momentum along x axis  after explosion of third part   = mv cosθ

= 10 v cosθ

Momentum along x of first part = -  5 x 42 m/s

momentum of second part along x direction =0

total momentum along x direction before explosion = total momentum along x direction after explosion

0 = - 5 x 42 + 10 v cosθ

v cosθ = 21

Similarly

total momentum along y direction before explosion = total momentum along y direction after explosion

0 = - 5 x 38 +  10 v sinθ

v sinθ= 21

squaring and and then adding the above equation

v² cos²θ +v² sin²θ = 21² +19²

v² = 441 + 361

v = 28.31 m/s

Tanθ = 21 / 19

θ = 48°

Why does the output of a microphone increase as the frequency of the sound waves which it receives increases
Sloan [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The frequency of sound waves received by the microphone influences the output or pitch of the sound obtained from the microphone.

The higher the frequency of the sound received by the microphone, the higher the output of the microphone and vice versa. This is because, the higher the frequency of sound, the higher the oscillations produced and the greater the output of the microphone.

The rise and fall in the pitch of sound waves as the frequency of sound waves varies is called inflection.
