Explanation:
potential energy =360800J
mass(m)=?
height (h)=25m
g=9.8m/s²
we have
potential energy =360800J
mgh=360800J
m×9.8×25=360800
m=360800/(9.8×25)=1472.653061kg
The question is poor. Light doesn't refract on its way THROUGH anything. It refracts at the boundary BETWEEN two different media. The effect is greatest where the ratio of the speeds of light in the two media is greatest. On your list, that would be at the boundary between air or space and glass.
Answer:
(a) 0.613 m
(b) 0.385 m
(c) vₓ = 1.10 m/s, vᵧ = 3.50 m/s
v = 3.68 m/s², θ = 72.6° below the horizontal
Explanation:
(a) Take down to be positive.
Given in the y direction:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 10 m/s²
t = 0.350 s
Find: Δy
Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²
Δy = (0 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (10 m/s²) (0.350 s)²
Δy = 0.613 m
(b) Given in the x direction:
v₀ = 1.10 m/s
a = 0 m/s²
t = 0.350 s
Find: Δx
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
Δx = (1.10 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.350 s)²
Δx = 0.385 m
(c) Find: vₓ and vᵧ
vₓ = aₓt + v₀ₓ
vₓ = (0 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 1.10 m/s
vₓ = 1.10 m/s
vᵧ = aᵧt + v₀ᵧ
vᵧ = (10 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 0 m/s
vᵧ = 3.50 m/s
The magnitude is:
v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²
v = 3.68 m/s²
The direction is:
θ = atan(vᵧ / vₓ)
θ = 72.6° below the horizontal
