Answer:

When light enters from air to water i.e. it is moving from rarer to denser medium, it changes its original path as there is a change of speed of light and deflects itself towards the normal. This is known as the refraction of light and this is why a pencil in a cup of water looks as if it is broken and larger.

A circular coil of radius 5.0 cm and resistance 0.20 Ω is placed in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the c
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Assume number of turn is

N= 1

Radius of coil is.

r = 5cm = 0.05m

Then, Area of the surface is given as

A = πr² = π × 0.05²

A = 7.85 × 10^-3 m²

Resistance of

R = 0.20 Ω

The magnetic field is a function of time

B = 0.50exp(-20t) T

Magnitude of induce current at

t = 2s

We need to find the induced emf

This induced voltage, ε can be quantified by:

ε = −NdΦ/dt

Φ = BAcosθ, but θ = 90°, they are perpendicular

So, Φ = BA

ε = −NdΦ/dt = −N d(BA) / dt

A is a constant

ε = −NA dB/dt

Then, B = 0.50exp(-20t)

So, dB/dt = 0.5 × -20 exp(-20t)

dB/dt = -10exp(-20t)

So,

ε = −NA dB/dt

ε = −NA × -10exp(-20t)

ε = 10 × NA exp(-20t)

Now from ohms law, ε = iR

So, I = ε / R

I = 10 × NA exp(-20t) / R

Substituting the values given

I = 10×1× 7.85 ×10^-3×exp(-20×2)/0.2

I = 1.67 × 10^-18 A

(f) What do you mean by: (i) 1 J energy (ii) 1 W power​
max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

Watts are defined as 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second (1W = 1 J/s)

which means that 1 kW = 1000 J/s. A Watt is the amount of energy (in Joules) that an electrical device (such as a light) is burning per second that it's running.

suppose that you look into a photometer's eyepiece and the fluorescent disks appear to be equal in intensity. If the distance be
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Use the Inverse square law, Intensity (I) of a light is inversely proportional to the square of the distance(d).

I=1/(d*d)

Let Intensity for lamp 1 is L1 distance be D1 so on, L2 D2 for Intensity for lamp 2 and its distance.

L1/L2=(D2*D2)/(D1*D1)

L1/15=(200*200)/(400*400)
L1=15*0.25
L1=3.75 <span>candela</span>

A 15.0-μF capacitor is charged by a 130.0-V power supply, then disconnected from the power and connected in series with a 0.280-
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

The resonant frequency of a circuit is the frequency \omega_0 at which the equivalent impedance of a circuit is purely real (the imaginary part is null).

Mathematically this frequency is described as

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}(\sqrt{\frac{1}{LC}})

Where

L = Inductance

C = Capacitance

Our values are given as

C = 15*10^{-6}\mu F

L = 0.280*10^{-3}mH

Replacing we have,

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}(\sqrt{\frac{1}{LC}})

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}(\sqrt{\frac{1}{(15*10^{-6})(0.280*10^{-3})}})

f= 2455.81Hz

From this relationship we can also appreciate that the resonance frequency infers the maximum related transfer in the system and that therefore given an input a maximum output is obtained.

For this particular case, the smaller the capacitance and inductance values, the higher the frequency obtained is likely to be.
