Answer:
50.4°
Explanation:
Snell's law states:
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂
where n is the index of refraction and θ is the angle of incidence (relative to the normal).
When θ₁ = 48°:
n sin 48° = 1.33 sin 72°
n = 1.702
When θ₁ = 37°:
1.702 sin 37° = 1.33 sin θ
θ = 50.4°
Answer:
D. is greater for turbulent flow than for laminar flow
Explanation:
what is friction drag?
- friction drag is a phenomenon experienced when a body moves through a fluid. A practical example can be seen in the mild warmth we experience rubbing the palm's of one's hand together only in this case we are dealing with a solid body and a fluid (e.g air, water). friction drag is directly proportional to the area of the surface in contact with the fluid and increases as velocity increases. We see a practical example of this when the rate at which one rubs the palms together is fast but we use the word turbulent when we are dealing with fluids. Turbulent flow creates more friction drag than laminar flow( Flow between a smooth body and fluid) due to its greater interaction with the surface of the body
- it is important to know that friction is also called viscous drag or skin drag
- I recommend Richardson and coulson vol 2 textbook, page 149, Chemical enginering fluid mechanics textbook by Ron dardy, page 341 for clearer explanation
Wind power is the use of wind to provide the mechanical power through wind turbines & “Thermal” power plants convert heat into electricity using steam. Hydroelectricity is electricity made by generators that are pushed by the movement of water
