A blue line with 5 orange tick marks then one red tick mark then 4 orange tick marks. The number zero is above the red tick mark

. Assume each tick mark represents 1 cm. Calculate the total displacement if a toy car starts at 0, moves 5 cm to the left, then 8 cm to the right, and then 3 cm to the left. The car moves cm, so there is no displacement.

The total displacement of the toy car at the given positions is 0.

The given parameters;

<em>First displacement of the car, = 5 cm left</em>
<em>Second displacement of the car, = 8 cm right</em>
<em>Third displacement of the car, = 3 cm to the left</em>

The total displacement of the car is calculated as follows;

<em>Let the </em><em>left </em><em>direction be "</em><em>negative </em><em>direction"</em>
<em>Let the </em><em>right </em><em>direction be "</em><em>positive </em><em>direction"</em>

$\Delta x = - \ 5\ cm \ + \ 8 \ cm \ - \ 3 \ cm \\\\\Delta x = 0$

Thus, the total displacement of the toy car at the given positions is 0.

Two objects, A and B, each of mass o.22 kg, are moving at 0.34 m/s directly toward each other. What is the speed of Object A aft

ki77a [65]

Theoretically, if the objects have the same mass and are moving towards each other at a speed of $0.34m s^{-1}$ , after a perfectly elastic collision, the object A is supposed to move with the same velocity in the opposite direction.

A beam of light traveling through a liquid (of index of refraction n1 = 1.47) is incident on a surface at an angle of θ1 = 59° w

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

(a) $n_{2} = \frac{n_{1}sin\theta_{1}}{sin\theta_{2}}$

(b) $n_{2} = 1.349$

(c) $v_{1} = 2.04\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

(d) $v_{2} = 2.22\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

Solution:

As per the question:

Refractive index of medium 1, $n_{1} = 1.47$

Angle of refraction for medium 1, $\theta_{1} = 59^{\circ}$

Angle of refraction for medium 2, $\theta_{1} = 69^{\circ}$

Now,

(a) The expression for the refractive index of medium 2 is given by using Snell's law:

$n_{1}sin\theta_{1} = n_{2}sin\theta_{2}$

where

$n_{2}$ = Refractive Index of medium 2

Now,

$n_{2} = \frac{n_{1}sin\theta_{1}}{sin\theta_{2}}$

(b) The refractive index of medium 2 can be calculated by using the expression in part (a) as:

$n_{2} = \frac{1.47\times sin59^{\circ}}{sin69^{\circ}}$

$n_{2} = 1.349$

(c) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 1:

We know that:

$Refractive\ index,\ n = \frac{Speed\ of\ light\ in vacuum,\ c}{Speed\ of\ light\ in\ medium,\ v}$

Thus for medium 1

$n_{1} = \frac{c}{v_{1}$

$v_{1} = \frac{c}{n_{1} = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{1.47} = 2.04\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

(d) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 2:

For medium 2:

$n_{2} = \frac{c}{v_{2}$

$v_{2} = \frac{c}{n_{1} = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{1.349} = 2.22\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

If 1.34 ✕ 1020 electrons move through a pocket calculator during a full day's operation, how many coulombs of charge moved throu

ioda

Given :

Number of operations move through a pocket calculator during a full day's operation , $n=1.34 \times 10^{20}$ .

To Find :

How many coulombs of charge moved through it .

Solution :

We know , charge in one electron is :

$e^-=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ coulombs$

So , charge on n electron is :

$C=e^-\times n\\C=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.34\times 10^{20} \ C\\C=-21.44\ C$

Therefore , -21.44 coulombs of charge is moved through it .

Hence , this is the required solution .
