Given:
The mass of the halfback is m = 107 kg
The speed of the halfback is v = 8 m/s
To find the momentum.
Explanation:
The momentum of the halfback is
Thus, the momentum of the halfback is 856 kg m/s
<span>Answer:
sin(incidence)/sin(refraction) = n_refraction/n_incidence
sin(50) / sin(x) = 1.5 / 1
sin(50)/1.5 = sin(x)
sin(x) = 0.511
x = 30.71o
B]
50 degrees, same as the angle going in.
You can show that by reversing the steps in A.
sin(30.7)/sin(x) = 1/1.5
C]
The glass is 5 cm thick.
The reference angle = 30.7o
Tan(30.7) = displacement / thickness
Tan(30.7) = x / 5
5*sin(30.7) = x
x = 2.97 cm which is the displacement.</span>
Answer: The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be LESS THAN the distance between the front and back of his eye.
Explanation:
The human eye the front part of the eye is the CORNEA. This is the tough white transparent part of the eye that helps in the refraction of light rays. While the backside of the eye is the RETINA. This is the part of the eye when images are focused.
When a normal eye is at rest, parallel rays from a distant object are focused on the retina. The ability of the eye - lens to focus points at different distances on the retina is known as accomodation. The adjustment of the eye lens to focus objects of varying distances is brought about by the ciliary muscles. The have the ability to change the shape of the eye which leads to change in focal length.
When a person with normal vision looks at a distant object at infinity, the lens brings parallel rays to focus on the retina. Thus, the furthest point which the eye can see distinctly is called the far point of the eye and it's infinity for a normal eye. But Joe was able to focus his eye on the tree, meaning that the tree was within his near point. This is the nearest point at which an object is clearly seen. Therefore, when the effective focal length of the cornea-lens system changes, it changes the location of the image of any object in one's field of view.
<span>Answer: A) They are isotopes of nitrogen and they contain the same number of protons and electrons but each contains a different number of neutrons - 7 and 8 respectively.
Isotopes are atoms of a chemical element whose nucleus has the same atomic number, Z, but different atomic mass, A. The atomic number corresponds to the number of protons in the atom, therefore the isotopes of an element contain the same number of protons and electrons (atoms have to be neutral particles). The difference in atomic masses arises from the difference in the number of neutrons in the atomic nucleus.
