The phenomenon that is observed when an incident ray travelling in a slower medium strikes the boundary of a faster medium with an angle greater than the critical angle is known as total internal reflection.
Total internal reflection results in the the ray being reflected within the medium, instead of leaving it after undergoing diffraction. This phenomenon is the working principle of optical fibers.

A motorboat traveling 4 m/s, East encounters a current traveling 3.0 m/s, North. a) What is the resultant velocity of the motorb
Nostrana [21]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity in East, v_1=4\ m/s

Velocity in North, v_2=3\ m/s

(a) The resultant velocity is given by :

v=\sqrt{4^2+3^2}=5\ m/s

(b) The width of the river is, d = 80 m

Let t is the time taken by the boat to travel shore to shore. So,

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{80\ m}{5\ m/s}

t = 16 seconds

(c) Let x is the distance covered by the boat to reach the opposite shore. So,

x=v_2\times t

x=3\ m/s\times 16\ s

x = 48 meters

Hence, this is the required solution.

On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.252 kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.374 kg ), which is ini
geniusboy [140]

As we know that kinetic energy is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Here we can find the initial speed of puck A by momentum conservation

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

0.252\times v + 0 = 0.252\times (-0.115) + 0.374\times ( 0.650)

v = 0.850 m/s

now here we will have initial kinetic energy of the mass is given as

KE_i = \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2

KE_i = \frac{1}{2}(0.252)(0.850^2) = 0.091 J

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}(0.252)(-0.115)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(0.374)(0.650^2)

KE_f = 0.081 J

now loss of energy is given as

KE_i - KE_f = 0.091 - 0.081 = 0.010 J
