Answer:

<h2>This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line. The amount of bending depends on two things: Change in speed – if a substance causes the light to speed up or slow down more, it will refract (bend) more.</h2><h2>Hope it helps..</h2>

How much gravitational potential energy does a 45.2 kg object have when it is 21.9m above the ground?

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational potential energy is

Ep = m · g · h Assuming that the acceleration is g = 10m/s²

Ep = 45.4 · 10 · 21.9 = 9,942.6 J

One beam of electrons moves at right angles to a magnetic field. the force on these electrons is 4.9 x 10-14 newtons. a second b

diamong [38]

Below are the choices that can be found elsewhere:

A. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · tan(30°)
B. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · sin(30°) 
C. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · cos(30°) 
D. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arctan(30°) 
E. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arccos(30°)

Force is proportional to the angle made by the velocity with respect to the magnetic field. It is maximum when velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field and minimum when the velocity is parallel to the magnetic field. It is proportional to sin of the angle. In this problem it will be proportional to sin(30)

Calculate the radius of the orbit of a proton moving at 2.2x10^6 m/s in a magnetic field 0.7 T where v and B are perpendicular.

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

3.28 cm

Explanation:

To solve this problem, you need to know that a magnetic field B perpendicular to the movement of a proton that moves at a velocity v will cause a Force F experimented by the particle that is orthogonal to both the velocity and the magnetic Field. When a particle experiments a Force orthogonal to its velocity, the path it will follow will be circular. The radius of said circle can be calculated using the expression:

r = $\frac{mv}{qB}$
