A light beam is incident on a piece of fluorite (n = 1.434) at the Brewster's angle.

1 answer:

5 0

The Brewster angle is the angle can be found through this equation
θ=arctan(n2/n1).
This came from Snell's Law:
n1sinθ=n2sin(90-θ)
=n2cosθ
n2/n1=tanθ --- θ=arctan(n2/n1)=arctan(1.434)=55.11 degrees

Next, the angle of refraction can be found by using Snell's Law
n1sinθ=n2sinθ'
sin(55.11)=1.434sinθ'
sinθ'=sin(55.11)/1.434=0.572 --- θ'=arcsin(0.572)=34.89 degrees

A ball is thrown straight up with a velocity of 50 m/s.(use g = -10 m/s^2) a) What is the velocity in m/s after 2 seconds?

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(a) 30 m/sec

(b) -50 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity of ball u = 50 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity $g=-10m/sec^2$

(a) Time t = 2 sec

Now according to first equation of v = u-gt

So v=50-10×2=30 m/sec

(b) Time t = 10 sec

Now according to first equation of motion

So final velocity v = u-gt = 50-10×10 =-50 m/sec

Howdy!!

your answer is ----

total resistance 1/R = 1/9+1/9+1/9
= 3/9

=> R = 9/3 = 3 ohm
according to ohms law

voltage = current × resistance

= 4 × 3 = 12 volt

hope it help you
