A flat sheet of ice has a thickness of 1.4 cm. It is on top of a flat sheet of crown glass that has a thickness of 3.0 cm. Light

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

t = 2.13 10-10 s , d = 6.39 cm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the definition of refractive index

n = c / v

Where n is the refraction index, c the speed of light and v the speed in the material medium.

The refractive indices of ice and crown glass are 1.13 and 1.52, respectively, therefore the speed of the beam in the material medium is

v = c / n

As the beam strikes perpendicularly, the beam path is equal to the distance of the leaves, there is no refraction, so we can use the uniform motion relationships

v = d / t

t = d / v

t = d n / c

Let's look for the times on each sheet

Ice

t₁ = 1.4 10⁻² 1.31 / 3 10⁸

t₁ = 0.6113 10⁻¹⁰ s

Crown glass (BK7)

t₂ = 3.0 10⁻² 1.52 / 3.0 10⁸

t₂ = 1.52 10⁻¹⁰ s

Time is a scalar therefore it is additive

t = t₁ + t₂

t = (0.6113 + 1.52) 10⁻¹⁰

t = 2.13 10-10 s

The distance traveled by this time in a vacuum would be

d = c t

d = 3 10⁸ 2.13 10⁻¹⁰

d = 6.39 10⁻² m

d = 6.39 cm

No spacecraft has been built yet that was able to absorb harmful
radiations in space, change weather conditions on Earth, or destroy
meteors and comets which might strike Earth.

We should continue to send robotic spacecrafts into space
because they help discard some myths about objects in space.
In other words, they help us learn things that we never knew before.

An L-R-C series circuit, R = 160 Ω , L = 0.790 H , and C = 1.30×10−2 μF . The source has a voltage amplitude of 140 V and a freq

wolverine [178]

Answer: a) 1 b) 61 W c) 61 W

Explanation:

a) The Power Factor (also known as cos φ), is defined by the difference in phase between current and voltage, in a RLC series circuit, and is expressed as follows:

cos φ = R / Z = R / $\sqrt{(R)^{2} + (Xl -Xc)^{2} }$

In resonance, XL =XC, so the circuit behaves like it were purely resistive, so Z=R.

Replacing in the expression for power factor, we have:

cos φ = R/Z = R/R = 1

This means that in resonance, current and voltage are in phase each other.

b) The average power delivered by the source, in resonance, is simply the power dissipated at the resistance R, as follows:

Pavg = V² rms / R = V₀² / √2 / R = 61 W

c) If the circuit remains in resonance, the average power , which does not depends on frequency provided this condition remains, keeps the same, i.e. , 61 W.

What is the difference between charging by contact and charging by induction in terms of electron transfer.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

the main difference between charging by contact and charging by induction is that in the first case, the two objects are touching, while in the second case, the two objects do not touch

Explanation:

There are three methods of charging an object:

- Charging by friction: this is done by rubbing an object against another object. An example is when a plastic rod is rubbed with a wool cloth. When this is done, electrons are transferred from the wool to the rod, so both objects remain charged at the end of the process

- Charging by contact: this is done by putting in contact a charged object with a neutral, conducting object. In this case, the charges are transferred from the charged object to the neutral object; at the end of the process, the neutral object will also have a net electric charge, so it will be also charged.

- Charging by induction: in this case, we take a charged object, and a neutral object, and we place the two objects close to each other, but without touching. Let's assume that the charged object is negatively charged: in this case, the positive charges in the neutral object are attracted towards the negative charges of the charged object, while the negative charges of the neutral object are repelled away. As a result, the positive and negative charges in the neutral object split apart. If the object is connected to the ground, then negative charges move away, so the neutral object will remain positively charged.

Therefore, the main difference between charging by contact and charging by induction is that in the first case, the two objects are touching, while in the second case, the two objects do not touch.
