A light ray transfers from more to less dense medium at certain condition , if we repeat this experiment by increasing the angle

of incidence in more dense medium to double its value in the 1st condition so the value of the relative refractive index between the 2 media is
increased to double
decreased to half
still constant
there is no relative refractive index between more and less dense medium

Answer:

The correct option is;

Still constant

Explanation:

The relative refractive index ₁n₂ between the two medium can be as follows;

_1n_2 = \dfrac{The \ speed \ of \ light \ in \ medium \ 1}{The \ speed \ of \ light \ in \ medium \ 2}  = \dfrac{c_1}{c_2}

Therefore, given that the speed of light in medium 1 is constant and the speed of light on medium 2 is also constant, the relative refractive index ₁n₂ = c₁/c₂ is always constant.

A machine is rolling a metal cylinder under pressure. The radius of the cylinder is decreasing at a constant rate of 0.05 inches
Luden [163]
Yes, the volume of the cylinder will remain constant. As the radius decreases, the height will increase to make sure that the volume is kept the same.
We have been given a value of dr/dt and are required to find dh/dt
Because the volume is constant, we can plug it into the formula for the volume of the cylinder and rearrange it to make h the subject:
128 = πr²h
h = 128/πr²
Now we differentiate both sides:
dh/dr = -256/πr³
Applying the chain rule:
dh/dt = dh/dr x dr/dt
dh/dt = (-256/πr³) x -0.05
dh/dt = 64/5πr³; substituting the value of r
dh/dt = 64/5π(1.5)³
dh/dt = 1.21 in/sec

Explain why nuclear fission and nuclear fusion release large amounts of energy
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Because of the formula E=mc^2

Explanation:

In this problem we are describing two different processes:

  • Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy, unstable nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei
  • Nuclear fusion occurs when two (or more) light nuclei fuse together producing a heavier nucleus

In both cases, the total mass of the final products is smaller than the total mass of the initial nuclei.

According to Einsten's formula, this mass difference has been converted into energy, as follows:

E=\Delta mc^2

where:

E is the energy released in the reaction

\Delta m is the mass defect, the difference between the final total mass and the initial total mass

c=3.0 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

From the formula, we see that the factor c^2 is a very large number, therefore even if the mass defect \Delta m is very small, nuclear fusion and nuclear fission release huge amounts of energy.
