Answer:

f1 / f2 = n2 / n1  

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we should remember that the formula for index of refraction is defined as:

n = c / v

or

n v = c

Where,

n = index of refraction

c = speed of light

v = speed of light in the medium

Since speed of light is constant, then we can simply equate the materials 1 and 2:

n1 v1 = n2 v2

Where the speed of light in the medium (v) can be expressed as:

v = w * f

Where,

w = wavelength of light

f = frequency of light

Therefore substituting this back into the relating equation:

n1  w1 f1 = n1  w2 f1

Since it is given that the light is monochromatic, w1 = w2, this further simplifies the equation to:

n1 f1 = n2 f2

f1 / f2 = n2 / n1                  (ANSWER)

A man tries to push a 200 kg Car that moves at a acceleration 0.50 m/s2. The man is able to displace the car 10 m. How much work
yawa3891 [41]

The work done by the man pushing the car over the given distance is 1000J.

Given the data in the question;

  • Mass of car; m = 200kg
  • Acceleration of the car; a = 0.5m/s^2
  • Distance covered by the car; d = 10m

Work done; W = \ ?

<h3>Work done</h3>

Work done is simply defined as the energy transfer that takes place when an object is either pushed or pulled over a certain distance by an external force. It is expressed as;

Work\ done = f * d

Where f is force applied and d is distance travelled.

To determine the work done by the man, we first solve for the force applied F.

From Newton's Second Law; Force \ F = m * a

We substitute our given values into the expression

F = m * a \\\\F = 200kg * 0.5m/s^2\\\\F = 100kg.m/s^2

Next we substitute our values into the expression of work done above.

Work \ done = f * d\\\\Work \ done = 100kg.m/s^2 * 10m\\\\Work \ done = 1000kgm^2/s^2\\\\Work \ done = 1000J

Therefore, the work done by the man pushing the car over the given distance is 1000J.

What things do different atoms have in common?<br><br> Thank you!
prohojiy [21]

Answer:They come in different kinds, called elements, but each atom shares certain characteristics in common. All atoms have a dense central core called the atomic nucleus. Forming the nucleus are two kinds of particles: protons, which have a positive electrical charge, and neutrons, which have no charge

Consider a basketball player spinning a ball on the tip of a finger. If a player performs 1.99 J of work to set the ball spinnin
scoundrel [369]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to rotational kinetic energy, the definition of the moment of inertia for a sphere and the obtaining of the radius through the circumference. Mathematically kinetic energy can be given as:

KE= I\omega^2

Where,

I = Moment of inertia

\omega = Angular velocity

According to the information given we have that the radius is

\Phi= 2\pi r

0.749m = 2\pi r

r = 0.1192m

With the radius obtained we can calculate the moment of inertia which is

I = \frac{2}{3}mr^2

I = \frac{2}{3}(0.624)(0.1192)^2

I = 5.91*10^{-3} kg \cdot m^2

Finally, from the energy equation and rearranging the expression to obtain the angular velocity we have to

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2KE}{I}}

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2(1.99)}{5.91*10^{-3}}}

\omega = 25.95rad/s

Therefore the angular speed will the ball rotate is 25.95rad/s
