Question
3.2
Calculate the value of critical angle for light passing from glass to air (given that refractive index of
glass - 1.5)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

42°

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Refractive index (n) = 1.5

Critical angle (C) =?

The refractive index and the critical angle are related according to the following reaction:

n = 1 / Sine C

Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the critical angle as follow:

Refractive index (n) = 1.5

Critical angle (C) =?

n = 1 / Sine C

1.5 = 1 / Sine C

Cross multiply

1.5 × Sine C = 1

Divide both side by 1.5

Sine C = 1 / 1.5

Sine C = 0.6667

Take the inverse of sine

C = Sine¯¹ (0.6667)

C = 41.8 ≈ 42°

Thus, the critical angle is approximately

42°.

Explanation:

A car changes chemical energy from fuel into thermal energy and mechanical energy.

Mechanical energy can be defined as the type of energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or position. Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy, that is, the sum of energy in motion and stored energy. Examples of mechanical energy includes driving a car, riding a bicycle, listening to music etc.

Types of mechanical energy

1. Motion energy (kinetic energy)

2. Stored energy(potential energy)

Two lamps rated 60W; 240V and 100W, 240Vrespectively are connected in series to a 240V power source. Calculate;
a) The resistance of each lamp.
b) The effective resistance of the circuit.
c) The current passing the lamps. pls answer correctly ​

Answers

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

The total power of the circuit is equal to the sum of the powers of each lamp.

[tex]P=60+100\\P=160 [W][/tex]

Now we have a voltage source equal to 240 [V], so by means of the following equation we can find the current circulating in the circuit.

[tex]P=V*I[/tex]

where:

P = power [W]

V = voltage [V]

I = current [amp]

[tex]I = P/V\\I=160/240\\I=0.67 [amp][/tex]

So this is the answer for c) I = 0.67 [amp]

We know that the voltage of each lamp is 240 [V]. Therefore using ohm's law which is equal to the product of resistance by current we can find the voltage of each lamp.

a)

[tex]V=I*R[/tex]

where:

V = voltage [V]

I = current [amp]

R = resistance [ohms]

Therefore we replace this equation in the first to have the current as a function of the resistance and not the voltage.

[tex]P=V*I\\and\\V = I*R\\P = (I*R)*I\\P=I^{2}*R[/tex]

[tex]60 = (0.67)^{2}*R\\R_{60}=133.66[ohm] \\and\\100=(0.67)^{2} *R\\R_{100}=100/(0.66^{2} )\\R_{100}=225 [ohm][/tex]

b)

The effective resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the resistors connected in series.

[tex]R = 133.66 + 225\\R = 358.67 [ohms][/tex]

A pressure sensor inside of a mixing tank is designed to turn red when the pressure inside the tank exceeds 1.9 kPa. If the sensor is a square, 10 cm on each side, how great a force must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red?

Answers

Answer:

19 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Pressure (P) = 1.9 kPa

Length (L) = 10 cm

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall convert 1.9 KPa to N/m². This can be obtained as follow:

1 KPa = 1000 N/m²

Therefore,

1.9 KPa = 1.9 KPa × 1000 N/m² / 1 KPa

1.9 KPa = 1900 N/m²

Thus, 1.9 KPa is equivalent to 1900 N/m².

Next, we shall convert 10 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

10 cm = 10 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

10 cm = 0.1 m

Thus, 10 cm is equivalent to 0.1 m

Next, we shall determine the area of the square. This can be obtained as follow:

Length (L) = 0.1 m

Area of square (A) =?

A = L²

A = 0.1²

A = 0.01 m²

Thus, the area of the square is 0.01 m².

Finally, we shall determine the force that must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red. This can be obtained as follow:

Pressure (P) = 1900 N/m²

Area (A) = 0.01 m²

Force (F) =?

P = F/A

1900 = F / 0.01

Cross multiply

F = 1900 × 0.01

F = 19 N

Therefore, a force of 19 N must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red.

Answers

Answer:

199,430Joules

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed by a falling object due to virtue of its position.

gravitational potential energy = mass * acceleration due to gravity * height

gravitational potential energy = 55 * 9.8 * 370

gravitational potential energy = 539 * 370

gravitational potential energy = 199,430

Hence the total change in the skier's gravitational potential energy is 199,430Joules

ANSWER:

99,430 Joules (in multiple choice question sometimes appear as 200,000J)

what must be true if a waves wavelength is short ?

Answers

Answer: So, if the wavelength of a light wave is shorter, that means that the frequency will be higher because one cycle can pass in a shorter amount of time. ... That means that longer wavelengths have a lower frequency. Conclusion: a longer wavelength means a lower frequency, and a shorter wavelength means a higher frequency!

If the wavelength of a wave is short. It is true that the wave will have a lower frequency. A longer wavelength denotes a lower frequency.

What is a wave?

A wave is a phenomenon that flows across a material medium without leaving any lasting mark.

Frequency is defined as the number of cycles per second. The time to make one complete cycle is the frequency and the distance between successive crests of a wave is the wavelength.

Thus, a shorter wavelength of a light wave signifies a greater frequency since one cycle may pass in a shorter amount of time. Longer wavelengths have a lower frequency.

Hence  a longer wavelength denotes a lower frequency, whereas a shorter wavelength denotes a higher frequency.

Answers

Answer:

1320 Hz

Explanation:

The third harmonic is given as 3fo, where fo is the fundamental frequency.

The fundamental frequency is the lowest frequency that can occur in a pipe. In an open pipe, both even and odd harmonics occur which are multiples of the fundamental frequency fo. Hence the harmonics in an open pipe are; 2fo, 3fo,4fo..... etc.

For the third harmonic; 3fo = 3 (440 Hz) = 1320 Hz

An object is falling from a height of d and reaches a final velocity of vf. Calculate velocity when the object has fallen a distance d/2.

Answers

Answer:

The final velocity, [tex]v_{f}[/tex], is gd.

Explanation:

The condition here is a free falling object. Thus from the third equation of motion under free fall, we have;

[tex]v_{f}[/tex] = [tex]v_{i}[/tex] + 2gs

where [tex]v_{f}[/tex] is the final velocity of the object, [tex]v_{i}[/tex] is the initial velocity of the object, g is the gravitational force and s is the height.

Since the object falls from a height of d, then [tex]v_{i}[/tex] = 0 m/s, and s = d.

So that;

[tex]v_{f}[/tex] = 0 + 2gd

   = 2gd

[tex]v_{f}[/tex] = 2gd

When the distance is [tex]\frac{d}{2}[/tex], [tex]v_{i}[/tex] = 0 m/s.

Then;

[tex]v_{f}[/tex] = 2g[tex]\frac{d}{2}[/tex]

[tex]v_{f}[/tex] = g x d

When the object falls through the height [tex]\frac{d}{2}[/tex], then the final velocity is gd.

What is the tangential velocity of a record player which makes 11 revolutions in 20 seconds?

Answers

What is the tangential velocity of a record player which makes 11 revolutions in 20 seconds? Help hello

Velocity is defined as rate of change of displacement wit respect to time.

tangential velocity is  (11/10)πr , where r is radius of circular track.

Since, tangential velocity is,  [tex]=\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

In one revolution, distance travelled is circumference of circular track.

If radius of circular track is r , then distance travelled in one revolution is, = 2πr  

So, 11 revolutions = 11(2πr) = 22πr

Time taken = 20 second

So, tangential velocity = 22πr/20 = (11/10)πr  meter per second.

a 5.00 kg plane is speeding up on the ground with an applied force of 706 N. If the net force is 450 N, what would be the force due to air resistance

Answers

Answer:

The force due to air resistance is 256 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the plane, m = 5 kg

applied force on the plane, Fa = 706 N

the net force on the plane, ∑F= 450 N

Let the force due to air resistance = Fr

The net force on the plane is given as;

Net force = applied force - force due to air resistance

∑F = Fa - Fr

Fr = Fa - ∑F

Fr = 706 - 450

Fr = 256 N.

Therefore, the force due to air resistance is 256 N.
