The pressure experienced by the wheel of the tricycle is 1.85×10¹⁰ N/m²

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

Pressure can be defined as the force acting perpendicular per unit area on the surface of a body. The S.I unit of pressure is N/m²

To calculate the pressure of the wheel of the tricycle, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • P = 4mg/πd².............. Equation 1

Where:

  • P = Pressure of the tricycle wheel
  • m = mass of the wheel
  • d = diameter of the wheel
  • g = acceleration due to gravity
  • π = pie.

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 150 kg
  • d = 0.001 m
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • P = 4(150)(9.8)/(0.001²×3.14)
  • P = 5880/0.00000314
  • P = 1.85×10¹⁰ N/m²

Hence, The pressure experienced by the wheel of the tricycle is 1.85×10¹⁰ N/m².

Determine the index of refraction of glass that is struck by unpolarized light at 53.8 degrees and resulting in a fully polarize
nignag [31]

Answer:

The refractive index of glass, \mu_{g} = 1.367

Solution:

Brewster angle is the special case of incident angle that causes the reflected and refracted rays to be perpendicular to each other or that angle of incident which causes the complete polarization of the reflected ray.

To determine the refractive index of glass:

tan\theta_{P} = \frac{\mu_{g}}{\mu_{a}}                 (1)

where

\mu_{a} = refractive index of glass

\mu_{g} = refractive index of glass

Now, using eqn (1)

tan{53.8^{\circ}} = \frac{\mu_{g}}{1}

\mu_{g} = tan53.8^{\circ}

\mu_{g} = 1.367

An electric circuit can have no current when a switch is
Finger [1]

Answer:

Open

Explanation:

A switch is a part of a circuit where a connection can be made or broken. By convention, when the switch is "open", the connection is broken and current cannot pass. When the switch is "closed", the connection is complete and current can pass.
