define refractive index with reference to the law of reflection​

Answers

Answer 1

The ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to its velocity in a specified medium.

Law of reflection:-

also known as Snell's law defines the refractive index of a medium with respect to the other medium. First law of refraction states that, the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is constant.

Answer 2

Refractive index, also called index of refraction, measure of the bending of a ray of light when passing from one medium into another. ... Refractive index is also equal to the velocity of light c of a given wavelength in empty space divided by its velocity v in a substance, or n = c/v

Answer:

Atoms of a certain element contain a fixed amount of energy.

Explanation:

An atom can be defined as the smallest unit comprising of matter that forms all chemical elements. Thus, atoms are basically the building blocks of matters and as such defines the structure of a chemical element.

Generally, these atoms are typically made up of three distinct particles and these are protons, neutrons and electrons.

Additionally, all the physical properties of a mineral result from the mineral's internal arrangement of atoms.

The consequence of atoms being a singular closed system is that atoms of a certain element contain a fixed amount of energy because the number of protons, neutrons and electrons are in a fixed proportion.

[tex]Length= 10[/tex]

From the above table, the corresponding age to 10cm is:

[tex]Age = 20cm[/tex]

If in your measurement, the length is approximately (for example):

[tex]Length = 9cm[/tex]

The age will be:

What minimum speed must the block have at the base of the 70 m hill to pass over the pit at the far (right-hand) side of that hill and reach the other side (at a 50 m level)

Answers

Answer:

initial velocity is v = 4.95 m / s

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we use the projectile launch ratios, when the block leaves the hill its speed is horizontal, let's find the time it takes to fall to the other point.

Initial vertical velocity is zero

          y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

          y-y₀ = 0 -1/2 g t²

          t = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{ 2(y_o -y)}{g} }[/tex]

calculate

          t = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{2 ( 70-50)}{9.8} }[/tex]

          t = 2.02 s

with this time we can substitute in the horizontal displacement equation

          x = v₀ₓ t

          v₀ₓ = x / t

suppose that the distance between the two points is x = 10 m

          v₀ₓ = 10 / 2.02

          v₀ₓ = 4.95 m / s

initial velocity is v = 4.95 m / s

Answers

Answer:

 v = 27.28 m /s, θ = 63.9º

Explanation:

For this exercise we can approximate the movement to a projectile launch, let's analyze the situation.

* We must find the horizontal speed, for this we will find the descent time and the horizontal distance

* We look for the vertical speed

At the highest point the speed is horizontal

Let's find the time it takes for the kite to reach the ground

             y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

             0 =y₀ + 0 -1/2 gt²

             t = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{2y_o}{g} }[/tex]

             t = √(2 40/32)

             t = 2.5 s

to find the horizontal velocity we must know the horizontal distance, let's use trigonometry

          sin θ = y / l

          θ = sin⁻¹1 y / l

          θ = sin⁻¹ 40/50

          θ = 53.1º

therefore the horizontal distance is

          x = l cos 53.1

          x = 50cos 53.1

          x = 30 m

let's use the equation

          x = v₀ₓ t

          v₀ₓ = x / t

          v₀ₓ = 30 / 2.5

          v₀ₓ = 12 m / s

we look for the vertical component of the velocity

          v_y = v_{oy} - g t

          v_y = 0 - g t

          v_y = - 9.8 2.5

          v_y = -24.5 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the speed is directed downwards, because it is the arrival point, as they indicate that there is no friction, the exit speed is the same, worse with the opposite sign

We already have the two components of the velocity, let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the modulus

          v = [tex]\sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}[/tex]

          v = [tex]\sqrt{12^2 + 24.5^2}[/tex]

          v = 27.28 m /s

we use trigonometry for the angle

          tan θ = v_y / vₓ

          θ = tan⁻¹ v_y / vₓ

          θ = tan⁻¹ 24.5 / 12

          θ = 63.9º

Two wheels with identical moments of inertia are rotating about the same axle. The first is rotating clockwise at 2.0 rad/s, and the second is rotating counterclockwise at 6.0 rad/s. If the two wheels are brought into contact so that they rotate together, their final angular velocity will be

Answers

Answer:

w = 2 rad / s  counterclockwise

Explanation:

This is an exercise in angular momentum, we define a system formed by the two wheels in such a way that the torques during contact have been internal and the angular moeoto0o is conserved

            L₀ = L_f

We assume that the counterclockwise rotations are positive, let's look for the initial moment before the collision

           L₀ = I w₁ + I w₂

where the angular velocity of the first wheel is w₁ = - 2.00 rad / s and the angular velocity of the second wheel is w₂ = 6.0 rad / s

As the wheels collide and remain in unity, the final angular momentum after the collision

            I_total = 2 I

            L_f = I_total w

we substitute

            I w₁ + I w₂ = I_total w

            w = [tex]\frac{I w_1 + Iw_2}{I_{total} }[/tex]

             w = [tex]\frac{I \ (w_1+w_2)}{2 \ I}[/tex]

             w = [tex]\frac{w_1 +w_2}{2}[/tex]

let's calculate

             w = [tex]\frac{-2.0 + 6.0}{2}[/tex]

             w = 2 rad / s

the positive sign indicates that the rotation is counterclockwise

The final angular velocity will be 2 rad /s counterclockwise. The pace of transition of angular displacement is described as angular velocity.

What is angular velocity?

The rate of change of angular displacement is defined as angular velocity and it is stated as follows:

ω = θ t

The given data in the problem is;

[tex]\omega_1[/tex] is the angular velocity of wheel 1= 2.0 rad/s

[tex]\omega_2[/tex]  is the angular velocity of wheel 2= 6.0 rad/s

[tex]\rm \omega_f[/tex]  is the final angular velocity=?

As the wheel collides the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum;

Momentum before collision

[tex]\rm L_0 = I \omega_1 + I \omega_2[/tex]

Momentum after the collision when the two-wheel becomes one wheel;

[tex]\rm \I_ {total }= 2 I \\\\ L_f= I_{total}\omega \\\\[/tex]

From the conservation of momentum principle;

[tex]\rm L_i = L_f \\\\ I \omega_1 + I \omega_2 = I_{total}\omega \\\\ \rm \omega= \frac{ I \omega_1 + I \omega_2 }{2I} \\\\ \omega = \frac{\omega_1 + \omega_2}{2} \\\\[/tex]

[tex]\omega=\frac{-2.0+ 6.0}{2} \\\\ \omega=2\ rad/sec[/tex]

Hence the final angular velocity will be 2 rad /s counterclockwise.

Answer:

F' = 9F

Explanation:

The complete question is "Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 36.0 units. If the charge of Object 2 is tripled, then the new electrostatic force will be _____ units".

The electric force is given by :

[tex]F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

If F = 36 units,

[tex]36=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\ ...(1)[/tex]

If charges are tripled, q₁' = q₂' = 3q₁ and 3q₂

So,

[tex]F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{k\times 3q_1'\times 3q_2'}{r^2}\\\\F'=9\times \dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\\\F'=9F[/tex]

So, the new force becomes 9 times of the initial force.

Tension in string T = m ω²r

Putting the values

60 = .072 x ω² x 0.9

ω² = 926

ω = 30.4 rad /s

With the switch closed, compare the brightness of the bulb and the flow of current in this circuit, with that of your first circuit. Did increasing the length of wire in the circuit change the brightness of the bulb or the curr

Answers

Answer:

the resistance of the wire has no effect on the brightness of the bulb.

Explanation:

Let's apply ohm's law for your light bulb circuit plus wires plus switch

             V = I R_{bulb} + I R_ {wire}

the current in a series circuit is constant

             V = I (R_{bulb} + R_{wire})

To know the effect of the wires on the brightness of the bulb, we must look for the value of the typical resistance of these elements.

Incandescent bulb

Power 60 W

let's use the power ratio

            P = V I = V2 / R

            R = V2 / P

the voltage value for this power is V = 120 V

            R = 120 2/60

            R_bulb = 240 Ω

Resistance of a 14 gauge copper wire (most used), we look for it on the internet

            R = 8.45 Ω/ km

in a laboratory circuit approximately 2 m is used, so the resistance of our cable is

            R = 8.45 10⁻³ 2

            R_wire = 0.0169 Ω

let's buy the two resistors

            R_{bulb} = 240

            R_{wire} = 0.0169

            [tex]\frac{R_{bulb} }{R_{wire} } = \frac{240 }{ 0.0169}[/tex]

              [tex]\frac{ R_{bulb} }{ R_{wire} } = 1.4 \ 10^4[/tex]

therefore resistance of the bulb is much greater than that of the wire, therefore almost all the power is dissipated in the bulb.

In summary, the resistance of the wire has no effect on the brightness of the bulb.
