Answer:
13.6 cm
Explanation:
From Snell's law:
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂
In the air, n₁ = 1, and light from the horizon forms a 90° angle with the vertical, so sin θ₁ = sin 90° = 1.
Given n₂ = 4/3:
1 = 4/3 sin θ
sin θ = 3/4
If x is the radius of the circle, then sin θ is:
sin θ = x / √(x² + 12²)
sin θ = x / √(x² + 144)
Substituting:
3/4 = x / √(x² + 144)
9/16 = x² / (x² + 144)
9/16 x² + 81 = x²
81 = 7/16 x²
x ≈ 13.6
Answer:
speed of golf ball is 1.15 × m/s
and % of uncertainty in speed = 2.07 × %
Explanation:
given data
mass = 45.9 gram = 0.0459 kg
speed = 200 km/hr = 55.5 m/s
uncertainty position Δx = 1 mm = m
to find out
speed of the golf ball and % of speed of the golf ball
solution
we will apply here heisenberg uncertainty principle that is
uncertainty position ×uncertainty momentum ≥ ......1
Δx × ΔPx ≥
here uncertainty momentum ΔPx = mΔVx
and uncertainty velocity = ΔVx
and h = 6.626 × Js
so put here all these value in equation 1
× 0.0459 × ΔVx =
ΔVx = 1.15 × m/s
and
so % of uncertainty in speed = ΔV / m
% of uncertainty in speed = 1.15 × / 55.5
% of uncertainty in speed = 2.07 × %
