Answer:

Geometrical optics, or ray optics, describes the propagation of light in terms of "rays" which travel in straight lines, and whose paths are governed by the laws of reflection and refraction at interfaces between different media.

A 77.0 kg woman slides down a 42.6 m long waterslide inclined at 42.3. at the bottom, she is moving 20.3 m/s.how much work did f

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

5.791244495 KNm

Explanation:

The height h is given by, $h=42.6sin42.3^{o}$

Potential energy, PE is given by

PE=mgh where m is mass of the woman, g is acceleration due to gravity whose value is taken as $9.81 m/s^{2}$ and h is already given hence substituting 77 Kg for m we obtain

$PE=77*9.81*42.6sin42.3^{o}=21656.7095 Nm$

PE=21.6567095 KNm

We also know that Kinetic energy is given by $0.5mv^{2}$ where v is the velocity and substituting v for 20.3 we obtain

$KE=0.5*77*20.3^{2}=15865.465 Nm$

KE=15.865465 KNm

Friction work is the difference between PE and KE hence

Friction work=21.6567095 KNm-15865.465 Nm=5.791244495 KNm

<h2>Answers: </h2>

1) 1.359, 1.403

2) $2.207(10)^{8}m/s$ , $2.138(10)^{8}m/s$

Explanation:

The described situation is known as Refraction.

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes it direction when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.

In this context, the Refractive index $n$ is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material, and is defined as the relation between the speed of light in vacuum ( $c=3(10)^{8}m/s$ ) and the speed of light $v$ in the second medium:

$n=\frac{c}{v}$ (1)

On the other hand we have the Snell’s Law:

$n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})=n_{2}sin(\theta_{2})$ (2)

Where:

$n_{1}$ is the first medium refractive index . We are told is the air, hence $n_{1}\approx 1$

$n_{2}$ is the second medium refractive index

$\theta_{1}$ is the angle of the incident ray

$\theta_{2}$ is the angle of the refracted ray

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2><u>1) Indexes of refraction for red and violet light</u></h2><h2 /><h2>1a) Red light</h2>

Using equation (2) according to Snell's Law and $\theta_{1}=57.0\º$ $\theta_{2}=38.1\º$ :

$(1)sin(57.0\º)=n_{2}sin(38.1\º)$

Finding $n_{2}$ :

$n_{2}=\frac{sin(57.0\º)}{sin(38.1\º)}$

$n_{2}=1.359$ (3)>>>Index of Refraction for red light

<h2>1b) Violet light</h2>

Again, using equation (2) according to Snell's Law and $\theta_{1}=57.0\º$ $\theta_{2}=36.7\º$ :

$(1)sin(57.0\º)=n_{2}sin(36.7\º)$

Finding $n_{2}$ :

$n_{2}=\frac{sin(57.0\º)}{sin(36.7\º)}$

$n_{2}=1.403$ (4) >>>Index of Refraction for violet light

<h2><u>2) Speeds of red and violet light</u></h2><h2 /><h2>1a) Red light</h2>

Here we are going to use equation (1):

$n_{red}=\frac{c}{v_{red}}$

$v_{red}=\frac{c}{n_{red}}$

Substituting (3) in this equation:

$v_{red}=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{1.359}$

$v_{red}=2.207(10)^{8}m/s$ >>>>Speed of red light

<h2>1a) Violet light</h2>

Using again equation (1):

$n_{violet}=\frac{c}{v_{violet}}$

$v_{violet}=\frac{c}{n_{violet}}$

Substituting (4) in this equation:

$v_{violet}=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{1.403}$

$v_{red}=2.138(10)^{8}m/s$ >>>>Speed of violet light

What is the purpose of using a generator

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The purpose of an electrical generator is to convert kinetic energy into electrical energy.

A generator is exactly the thing to use if you need more electrical energy than you have, but at the same time, you have access to something with more kinetic energy than you need.

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

(1) V=0.03348 gallons

(2) L= 576.813 km .

Explanation:

Write the relation between the density and volume for ethanol.

density ( ρ )= m/V

Volume ( V )= m/ρ .......... (1)

Here, V is the volume of ethanol, m is the mass of ethanol, and is the density of ethanol.

Write the relation between the specific gravity of ethanol and density of water

ρ=γ*ρ(water) ............. (2)

Here, is specific gravity of ethanol and is the density of water.

Determine the volume of ethanol by substituting equation (2) in equation (1)

V=m/γ*ρ(water)

Substitute 100 gm , for m, for , and 1000 kg/m for.

V= $\frac{100*10^{-3} }{0.789*1000}$

V=0.000112674 $m^{3$

Convert m³ to gallons

V= (0.000112674*264.172 )

V=0.03348 gallons

Step 2:

Determine the distance travelled by the special vehicle named “Micro joule” runs with ethanol.

L=C*V .......... (3)

Here, is the rate of consumption of ethanol by Micro joule.

Substitute 10,705 mi/gallons for C and 0.03348 gallons for .

By using eq. 3.

L= 10750*0.03348

L=358.416 mi.

Convert the distance travelled by Micro joule from miles to kilometres

L= (358.416* 1.60934)

L = 576.813 km

Thus, the distance travelled by Micro joule is 576.813 km .
