What occurs when light bends while passing from one medium to another?

Physics
1 answer:
Levart [38]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:So the answer is B

Explanation: When the light rays either bend or change their direction while passing from one medium to another it is called refraction of light. The refraction of light takes place when light travels from air into glass, from glass into air, from air into water or from water into air.

Nothing happens to the mirror. 

However, if the ray is within some suitable range of
wavelengths, the ray is reflected from the mirror's surface.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Graph C

Explanation:

With the same force and more mass, the position in time will still be parabolic

i.e.  x = ½at², but the rate of acceleration will be lower so the position curve will be broader.

Please help on this one somebody?

7.5 x 10⁻¹¹m. An electromagnetic wave of frecuency 4.0 x 10¹⁸Hz has a wavelength of 7.5 x 10⁻¹¹m.

Wavelength is the distance traveled by a periodic disturbance that propagates through a medium in a certain time interval. The wavelength, also known as the space period, is the inverse of the frequency. The wavelength is usually represented by the Greek letter λ.

λ = v/f. Where v is the speed of propagation of the wave, and "f" is the frequency.

An electromagnetic wave has a frecuency of 4.0 x 10 ¹⁸Hz and the speed of light is 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s. So:

λ = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s)/(4.0 x 10¹⁸ Hz)

λ = 7.5 x 10⁻¹¹m

LuckyWell [14K]

Complete Question:

A heat engine with 0.300 mol of a monatomic ideal gas initially fills a 1000 cm3 cylinder at 500 K . The gas goes through the following closed cycle: - Isothermal expansion to 5000 cm3. - Isochoric cooling to 400 K . - Isothermal compression to 1000 cm3. - Isochoric heating to 500 K .

a) what is the work for one cycle

b) what is the thermal efficiency

Answer:

a) Work done for 1 cycle = 402.13

b) Thermal efficiency = 20%

Explanation:

Number of moles, n = 0.300 mol

Initial Volume, V₁ = 1000 cm³

Temperature, T = 500 K

Isothermal expansion to 5000 cm³

Final volume, V₂ = 5000 cm³

R = 8.314 J/ mol.K

Work done, W = nRT ln(V₂/V₁)

W = (0.3 * 8.314 * 500) * ln(5000/1000)

W = 1247.1 * ln5

W₁ = 2007.13 J

Isochoric cooling

In an Isochoric process, volume is constant i.e. V₂ = V₁ = V

W = nRT ln(V/V)

But  ln(V/V) = ln 1 = 0

Work done, W₂ = 0 Joules

Isothermal Compression to 1000 cm³

V₂ = 1000 cm³

V₁ = 5000 cm³

W = nRT ln(V₂/V₁)

W = 0.3 * 8.314 * 400 ln(1000/5000)

W₃ = -1605 J

Isochoric heating to 500 K

Since there is no change in volume, no work is done

W₄ = 0 J

a) Work done for 1 cycle

W = W₁ + W₂ + W₃ + W₄

W = 2007.13 + 0 + 0 -1605+0

W = 402.13 Joules

b) Thermal efficiency

Thermal efficiency = (Net workdone for 1 cycle)/(Heat absorbed)

Heat absorbed = Work done due to thermal expansion = 2007.13 J

Thermal efficiency = 402.13/2007.13

Thermal efficiency = 0.2

Thermal efficiency = 0.2 * 100% = 20 %
