If the 80 ohm resistor fails, will the 50 ohm and 100 ohm resistor continue to operate? Why or why not?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

No, the 50 ohm and 100 ohm resistor will not continue to operate.

Explanation:

A closed circuit is the circuit in which there is no break between the negative and the positive end of the battery.

When in this, combinational circuit the 80 ohm resistor fail then there will not any continue supply of current in the circuit due to the breakage because the electron will flow from negative end of the battery to positive end if their is no breaking in the circuit.

Therefore the 50 ohm and 100 ohm circuit will not continue to operate because of the breaking of the circuit and current will not flow.

For a certain optical medium the speed of light varies from a low value of 1.90 × 10 8 m/s for violet light to a high value of 2
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

a. The refractive index ranges from 1.5 - 1.56

b. 18.7° for violet light and 19.5° for red light.

c. 33.7° for violet light and 35.3° for red light.

Explanation:

a. The refractive index of an object is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum and the speed of light in the object.

Mathematically,

n = \frac{c}{v}

The speed of violet light in the object is 1.9 * 10^8 m/s.

The speed of red light in the object is 2 * 10^8 m/s

Hence, the refractive index for violet light is:

n = \frac{3 * 10^8 }{1.9 * 10^8} \\\\n = 1.56

and for red light, it is:

n = \frac{3 * 10^8 }{2 * 10^8} \\\\n = 1.5

Hence, the refractive index ranges from 1.5 - 1.56.

b. The refractive index is also the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction.

n = \frac{sin(i)}{sin(r)}

The angle of incidence is 30°.

The angle of refraction for violet light will be:

1.56 = \frac{sin(30)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(30)}{1.56}  = \frac{0.5}{1.56} \\\\sin(r) = 0.3205\\\\r = 18.7^o

And the angle of refraction for red light will be:

1.5 = \frac{sin(30)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(30)}{1.5}  = \frac{0.5}{1.5} \\\\sin(r) = 0.3333\\\\r = 19.5^o

The angle of refraction for red light is larger than that of violet light when the angle of incidence is 30°.

c. The angle of incidence is 60°.

The angle of refraction for violet light will be:

1.56 = \frac{sin(60)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(60)}{1.56}  = \frac{0.8660}{1.56} \\\\sin(r) = 0.5551\\\\r = 33.7^o

And the angle of refraction for red light will be:

1.5 = \frac{sin(60)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(60)}{1.5}  = \frac{0.8660}{1.5} \\\\sin(r) = 0.5773\\\\r = 35.3^o

The angle of refraction for red light is still larger than that of violet light when the angle of incidence is 60°.

Determine the electrical and gravitational forces that two protons in the nucleus of a helium atom exert on each other when sepa
jonny [76]

Answer:

Fe = 25.67 N

Fg = 2.0734 x 10^-35 N

Explanation:

r = 3 x 10^-15 m

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Mp = 1.6726231 x 10^-27 kg

Qp = 1.6021 x 10^-19 C

K = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

The formula for the electrical force between the two protons is given by

F = K \frac{Q_{p}\times Q_{p}}{r^{2}}

F = \frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 1.6021\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6021\times 10^{-19}}{3\times 10^{-15}\times 3\times 10^{-15}}

Fe = 25.67 N

The formula for the gravitational force between the two protons is given by

F = G \frac{M_{p}\times M_{p}}{r^{2}}

F = \frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.6726231\times 10^{-27}\times 1.6726231\times 10^{-27}}{3\times 10^{-15}\times 3\times 10^{-15}}

Fg = 2.0734 x 10^-35 N
