Light traveling through plate glass (n = 1.52) approaches the surface, i.e. the air-glass interface. What minimum incident angle

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

41°

Explanation:

refractive index of glass, n = 1.52

For total internal reflection, the angle of refraction in rarer medium is 90°.

r = 90°

Let the angle of refraction in denser medium, that means in glass is i.

By use of Snell's law

refractive index of rarer medium with respect to denser medium, that means refractive index of air with respect to glass = 1 / n

And

$\frac{1}{n}=\frac{Sin i}{Sin r}$

$\frac{1}{1.52}=\frac{Sin i}{Sin 90}$

$0.658= Sin i$

i = 41°

Thus, the angle of incidence should be 41°.

Someone fires a 0.04 kg bullet at a block of wood that has a mass of 0.5 kg. (The block of wood is sitting on a frictionless sur

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The speed of bullet and wooden bock coupled together, V = 22.22 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bullet, m = 0.04 Kg

Mass of the wooden block, M = 0.5 Kg

The initial velocity of the bullet, u = 300 m/s

The initial velocity of the wooden block, U = 0 m/s

The final velocity of the bullet and wooden bock coupled together, V = 0 m/s

According to the conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of the body after impact is equal to the total momentum before impact.

Therefore,

mV + MV = mu + MU

V(m+M) = mu

V = mu/(m+M)

Substituting the values in the above equation,

V = 0.04 Kg x 300 m/s / (0.04 Kg+ 0.5 Kg)

= 22.22 m/s

Hence, the speed of bullet and wooden bock coupled together, V = 22.22 m/s

The internal energy of a system increases by 36 joules. The system does work using 17 joules. What amount of heat was added to t

Ray Of Light [21]

General internal energy expression:

Uf = (Ui-W) + Q

Where Uf = Final internal energy, Ui = Initial internal energy, W = Work done, Q = Heat added

But,
Uf -Ui = ΔU = 36 J, W = 17 J. Then,
ΔU = -W +Q => Q = ΔU+W = 36+17 = 53 J

Therefore, heat added to the system is 53 Joules
