When light propagates through two adjacent materials that have different optical properties, some interesting phenomena occur at
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

First, the different indices of refraction must be taken into account (in different media): for example, the refractive index of light in a vacuum is 1 (since vacuum = c).  The value of the refractive index of the medium is a measure of its "optical density":  Light spreads at maximum speed in a vacuum but slower in others  transparent media; therefore in all of them n> 1. Examples of typical values ​​of  are those of air (1,0003), water (1.33), glass (1.46 - 1.66) or diamond (2.42).

The refractive index has a maximum value and a minimum value, which we can calculate the minimum value by means of the following explanation:

The limit or minimum angle, α lim, is defined as the angle of refraction from which  the refracted ray disappears and all the light is reflected. As in the maximum value of  angle of refraction, from which everything is reflected, is βmax = 90º, we can  know the limit angle (the minimum angle that we would have to have to know the minimum index of refraction) by Snell's law:

 βmax = 90º ⇒ n 1x sin α (lim) = n 2 ⇒ sin α lim = n 2 / n 1

Explanation:

When a light ray strikes the separation surface between two media  different, the incident beam is divided into three: the most intense penetrates the second  half forming the refracted ray, another is reflected on the surface and the third is  breaks down into numerous weak beams emerging from the point of incidence in  all directions, forming a set of stray light beams.

A gas has an initial volume of 2.5 L at a temperature of 275 K and a pressure of 2.1 atm. The pressure of the gas increases to 2
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

2.10L

Explanation:

Given data

V1= 2.5L

T1= 275K

P1= 2.1atm

P2= 2.7 atm

T2= 298K

V2= ???

Let us apply the gas equation

P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2

substitute into the expression we have

2.1*2.5/275= 2.7*V2/298

5.25/275= 2.7*V2/298

Cross multiply

275*2.7V2= 298*5.25

742.5V2= 1564.5

V2= 1564.5/742.5

V2= 2.10L

Hence the final volume is 2.10L

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

58.44 C

Explanation:

Electric field is found by

E=\frac {\sigma}{\epsilon_o}=\frac {Q}{A\epsilon_o}

Therefore, the charge is

Q=EA\epsilon_o&#10;

Q= 4.00 ✕ 10^{6} N/C*1.65 *10^{6} m^{2}*8.854*10^{-12}= 58.4364 C&#10;

Therefore, required charge is 58.44 C
