Which term is defined as the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the material it is passing through?


index of reflection


index of refraction


angle of incidence


angle of reflection

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The index of refraction

What is the index of refraction?

The index of refraction tells us how much slower or faster light travels from one medium to another.

What is a medium? ⇒ the substance that light passes through

The formula to find the refractive index of a substance is the following:

[tex]n=\dfrac{c}{v}[/tex]

[tex]c[/tex] = the speed of light in a vacuum ([tex]3.00*10^8[/tex] m/s)[tex]v[/tex] = the speed of light in the medium

This makes the index of refraction defined as the ratio of:

the speed of light in a vacuum the speed of light in the material it passes through

A beam of light shines on a plane mirror with an angle of incidence of 40°. The reflected light then hits another parallel plane mirror. What is the angle of reflection from the second mirror? A. 40° B. 50° C. 80° D. 90° E. 140°

Answers

Answer:

40degrees

Explanation:

Since the mirrors are parallel, the angle of incidence on the first mirror will be the same as the angle of incidence on the second mirror.

Angle of incidence on the second mirror = 40degrees

According to the second law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Hence;

angle of incidence = angle of reflection = 40degrees

This shows that the angle of reflection from the second mirror is 40degrees

Which change would decrease the total current, I, flowing through this circuit?
A. Increasing the voltage of the battery
B. Decreasing the length of the wires
C. Rewiring the two resistors in a series
D. Adding a third resistor in parallel

Answers

Answer:

A. Increasing the voltage of the battery

Explanation:

The relationship between voltage, V, current, I and resistance, R, is given as follows;

V = I × R

∴ I = V/R

From the above relationship, the current flowing in the circuit is directly proportional to the voltage of the battery, and inversely proportional to the resistance, 'R', of the circuit

Therefore, increasing the voltage, 'V', of the battery, increases the total current, 'I', flowing in the circuit.

Write a complete scientific explanation to account for why the ball that was moving faster caused more flour to spread out.​

Answers

Answer:

It is due to the large impulse is imparted on the flour.

Explanation:

A ball is moving faster.

When a ball is moving faster strikes to the flour, the change in momentum is large and thus the impulse imparted on the flour is large.

Impulse = change in momentum

So, as the flour experiences large impulse and large momentum so that the flour spreads out.

If the change in momentum is large so the flour spreads out is more.  

When a ball moves with faster velocity, then a greater impulse force is generated that causes more flour to spread out.​

What is momentum?

Momentum can be defined as the mass in motion. It is the product of mass and velocity. It is given by the formula,

p = mv

where p is the momentum, m is the mass, and v is the velocity.

As we know that the ball has some mass and the ball is moving with some velocity, therefore, the ball will have some momentum. Also, we know that when the ball will hit the flour the momentum of the ball will become zero, therefore, the change in momentum in such a short time will generate an impulse.

Thus, if the velocity of the ball is more than the impulse generated will be more which will cause more flour to spread out.​

Hence, When a ball moves with faster velocity, then a greater impulse force is generated that causes more flour to spread out.​

In the diagram, q1 = -3.33*10^-9 C and
q2 = -5.22*10^-9 C. The electric field at
point P is zero. What is the distance
from P to q2?

Answers

Answer:

The distance will be "0.319 m".

Explanation:

The diagram of the given question is not attached with the problem. Below is the attached figure.

The given values are:

[tex]q1 = -3.33\times 10^{-9} \C[/tex]

[tex]q2 = -5.22\times 10^{-9} \ C[/tex]

As we know,

The electric field will be equivalent as well as opposite throughout the direction, then

⇒ [tex]\frac{R.q1}{(0.255)^2} =\frac{R.q2}{r^2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]r^2=\frac{q2}{q1}\times (0.255)^2[/tex]

By putting the values, we get

⇒      [tex]=\frac{-5.22\times 10^{-9}}{-3.33\times 10^{-9}}\times (0.255)^2[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=1.568\times 0.065[/tex]

A car travels from A to B and from B back to A.If the distance between A and B is 12 km and it took 20 minutes to travel full , then the average speed and average velocity of the car is

Answers

Answer:

Average speed = 0, Average velocity = 0.02 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A car travels from A to B and from B back to A.

The distance between A and B is 12 km

It took 20 minutes to travel full.

We need to find the average speed and the average velocity of the car.

As the car reaches the point from where it was started, the displacement of the car is equal to 0. As a result, the average velocity is equal to 0.

For average speed,

[tex]s=\dfrac{12+12}{60\times 20}\\\\s=0.02\ m/s[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

Explanation:

For this exercise we will look for the resistance of the wire

          R = ρ L / a

the area of ​​the wire is

          a =ππ r² = π πd² / 4

we substitute

         R = ρ L 4 / π d²

          R = 1.72 10⁻⁸   20  4/π 8 10⁻⁴

         

         R = 5.47 10⁻⁴ Ω

to calculate the current we use ohm's law

           V = R i

Answers

Answer:

1) The energy released during nuclear fission or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity is called nuclear energy.

2) It is not renewable because it is an element that has no way whatsoever to regenerate or replicate itself, nor gets created by any natural terrestrial means, neither makes itself available by arriving from outer space (like sunlight). There is a limited amount of it available on the Earth, and every bit you use is a bit you’ll never have available again (as Uranium atoms get destroyed by the fission process).

-In a series LRC circuit, the frequency at which the circuit is at resonance is f0. If you double the resistance, the inductance, the capacitance, and the voltage amplitude of the ac source, what is the new resonance frequency?

A) 4 f0

B) 2 f0

C) f0

D) f0/2

E) f0/4

Answers

f0=1/sqrt(inductance*capacitance)
So doubling both inductance and capacitance makes the new resonance frequency f0/2

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonace frequency becomes f0/2.

Resonance frequency

The resonace frequency of RLC series circuit, is the frequency at which the capacitivity reactance is equal to inductive reactance.

Xc = Xl

[tex]\frac{1}{2\pi f_0C} = 2\pi f_0 L\\\\4\pi^2 f_0^2 LC = 1\\\\f_0^2 = \frac{1}{4\pi^2 LC} \\\\f_0 = \sqrt{\frac{1}{4\pi^2 LC} } \\\\f_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi } \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC} }[/tex]

where;

f0 is the resonace frequencyL is the inductanceC is the capacitance

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonace frequency becomes;

[tex]f_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi } \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC} }\\\\f_1 = \frac{1}{2\pi } \frac{1}{\sqrt{2L (2C)} } \\\\f_1 = \frac{1}{2\pi } \frac{1}{\sqrt{4LC} }\\\\f_1 = \frac{1}{2}( \frac{1}{2\pi } \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC} })\\\\f_1 = \frac{1}{2} (f_0)[/tex]

Thus, When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonace frequency becomes f0/2.

Which of the following statements explains how total time spent in the air is affected as a projectile's angle of launch is increased from 25 degrees to 50 degrees?​

Answers

Answer:

Therefore letter C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a projectile motion the total time in the air can be calculated using the following equation:

We analyze the y-component motion.

[tex]v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt[/tex]

When the final velocity (v(f)) is equal to zero we calculate the upward time and multiplying it by 2 we find the total time in the air. So we will have:

[tex]t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{iy}}{g}[/tex]

[tex]t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{i}sin(\theta)}{g}[/tex]

We can see that the total time is directly proportional to the angle, then when θ increase t increase.

Therefore letter C is the correct answer.
