Answer:

The light enters the box along the normal to the side of the box or perpendicularly to the box's surface

Therefore, the light is expected to travel straight through the box

However, when a rectangular glass prism is placed inside the box, the light can then be refracted to pass through the box in the given path as shown

Light bends towards the normal when passing from a less dense medium to a denser medium with larger refractive index and vice versa

Therefore, when the glass prism with a larger refractive index than air is inclined with the top part further away from the incident beam and the bottom part closer to the incident beam as shown, the refracted ray through the box will be shifted downwards as shown in the drawing created with Microsoft Visio

Explanation:

Refractive \ index, n = \dfrac{sin(i)}{sin(r)}

Where;

i = The angle between the incidence light and the normal line

r = The angle between the refracted light and the normal line

n = The refractive index

When n > 1 is large, we have, ∠i > ∠r and the light is bent towards the normal when moving from a less dense medium to a denser medium and vice versa.

How does the molecular structure of a water molecule affect its polarity?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The polarity of water molecules means that molecules of water will stick to each other like when unlike charges attracts. This is called hydrogen bonding.

Polarity makes water a good solvent, gives it the ability to stick to itself (cohesion), stick to other substances (adhesion), and have surface tension (due to hydrogen bonding).

When the two hydrogen atoms bond with the oxygen, they attach to the top of the molecule. This molecular structure gives the water molecule polarity, or a lopsided electrical charge that attracts other atoms. The end of the molecule with the two hydrogen atoms is positively charged.

How many cubic feet are in a 55-gallon drum?
san4es73 [151]
1 gallon = 231 cubic inches
1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches

                       (55 gal) x (231 in³/gal) x (1 ft³/1728 in³)

                   =    (55 x 231 / 1728)  ft³

                   =         7.352 cubic feet       (rounded)

The nucleus of a hydrogen atom is a single proton, which has a radius of about 1.2 × 10-15 m. The single electron in a hydrogen
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 0.86 × 10^14

Explanation:

Given the following :

Radius of proton = 1.2 × 10-15 m

Radius of hydrogen atom = 5.3 × 10-11 m

Density of proton could be calculated thus:

Mass of proton = 1.67 × 10^-27 kg

Using the formula :

(4/3) × pi × r^3

(4/3) × 3.142 × (1.2 × 10^-15)^3 = 7.24 × 10^-45

Density = mass / volume

Density = (1.67 × 10^-27) / ( 7.24 × 10^-45)

= 0.2306 × 10^18

Density of hydrogen atom:

Mass of hydrogen atom= 1.67 × 10^-27 kg

Using the formula :

(4/3) × pi × r^3

(4/3) × 3.142 × (5.3 × 10^-11)^3 = 6.24 × 10^-31

Density = mass / volume

Density = (1.67 × 10^-27) / ( 6.24 × 10^-31)

= 0.2676 × 10^4

Ratio is thus:

Density of proton / density of hydrogen atom

0.2306 × 10^18 / 0.2676 × 10^4 = 0.8617 × 10^14

A man stands by a train track to watch the train car go by. Inside, a man walks through the train car eating a hot dog (the hot
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

D) 11 m/s

Explanation:

The problem asks us to calculate the velocity of the hot dog with respect to the observer stationary outside the train. This velocity is given by:

v=v_t + v_m + v_h

where

v_t=+10 m/s is the velocity of the train (towards right)

v_m=+2 m/s is the velocity of the man (towards right)

v_h=-1 m/s is the velocity of the hot-dog (towards left, so we put a negative sign)

Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find

v=+10 m/s+2 m/s-1 m/s=+11 m/s

and the positive sign means the velocity is toward right.

The original kinetic energy will be 0 J and the final kinetic energy will be 7500 J and the amount of work utilized will be similar to the final kinetic energy i.e., 7500 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As it is known that the kinetic energy is defined as the energy exhibited by the moving objects. So the kinetic energy is equal to the product of mass and square of the velocity attained by the car. Thus,

                  \text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

So the initial kinetic energy will be the energy exerted by the car at the initial state when the initial velocity is zero. Thus the initial kinetic energy will be zero.  

The final kinetic energy is

\text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \times 600 \times 5 \times 5 = 7500 J

As the work done is the energy required to start the car from zero velocity to 5 m/s velocity.  

                       Work done = Final Kinetic energy - Initial Kinetic energy

Thus the work utilized for moving the car is  

                         Work done = 7500 J - 0 J = 7500 J

Thus, the initial kinetic energy of the car is zero, the final kinetic energy is 7500 J and the work utilized by the car is also 7500 J.
