Answer:
19.872 degrees
Explanation:
Mathematically;
Using Snell’s law
n1 sin A = n2 sinB
Where ;
n1 = refractive index in air = 1
n2 is refractive index in water = 1.33
A = ?
B = 45
Substituting the values in the equation;
1 sin A = 1.33 sin45
Sin A = 1.33 sin 45
A = arc sin (1.33 sin 45)
A = 70.12
Thus, the actual direction of the Sun with respect to the horizon = 90-A = 19.872 degrees
Two radio antennas A and B radiate in phase. Antenna B is a distance of 100 m to the right of antenna A. Consider point Q along the extension of the line connecting the antennas, a horizontal distance of 50.0 m to the right of antenna B. The frequency, and hence the wavelength, of the emitted waves can be varied.
Required:
a. What is the longest wavelength for which there will be destructive interference at point Q?
b. What is the longest wavelength for which there will be constructive interference at point Q?
Answer:
a. 200 m
b. 100 m
Explanation:
Solution:-
- We will first draw three points marked A,B and Q from left most to right most.
- We are told that the antennas at A and B radiate in phase. This means the radio-waves emitted by each antenna are synchronous in terms of ( frequency and wavelength ).
- We will denote the common wavelength of coherent sources of radio-waves ( A and B ) with λ.
- The relation between the wavelength ( λ ) and the path difference between the source and observation point ( Q ) for the case of destructive interference is:
AQ - BQ = n*λ/2
Where,
n: The order of wavelength
AQ: The distance between antenna A and point Q
BQ: The distance between antenna B and point Q
- The point Q is positioned ( 100 + 50 ) m away from antenna A and 50 m from antenna B. Hence,
150 - 50 = n*λ/2
- To determine the longest wavelength ( λ ) to meet destructively at point Q with the given path difference. The order of wavelength ( n ) must be minimum ( 1 ). Therefore,
100 = λ/2
λ = 200 m .... Answer

A standing wave on a string that is fixed at both ends has frequency 80.0 Hz. The distance between adjacent antinodes of the standing wave is 12.0 cm. What is the speed of the waves on the string, in m/s
Answer:
v = 19.2 m/s
Explanation:
In order to find the speed of the string you use the following formula:
[tex]f=\frac{v}{2L}[/tex] (1)
f: frequency of the string = 80.0Hz
v: speed of the wave = ?
L: length of the string = 12.0cm = 0.12m
The length of the string coincides with the wavelength of the wave for the fundamental mode.
Then, you solve for v in the equation (1), and replace the values of the other parameters:
[tex]v=2Lf=2(0.12m)(80.0Hz)=19.2\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The speed of the wave is 19.2 m/s

Richard is driving home to visit his parents. 150 mi of the trip are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph . Normally Richard drives at the speed limit, but today he is running late and decides to take his chances by driving at 80 mph. How many minutes does he save?
Answer:
t = 25.5 min
Explanation:
To know how many minutes does Richard save, you first calculate the time that Richard takes with both velocities v1 = 65mph and v2 = 80mph.
[tex]t_1=\frac{x}{v_1}=\frac{150mi}{65mph}=2.30h\\\\t_2=\frac{x}{v_2}=\frac{150mi}{80mph}=1.875h[/tex]
Next, you calculate the difference between both times t1 and t2:
[tex]\Delta t=t_1-t_2=2.30h-1.875h=0.425h[/tex]
This is the time that Richard saves when he drives with a speed of 80mph. Finally, you convert the result to minutes:
[tex]0.425h*\frac{60min}{1h}=25.5min=25\ min\ \ 30 s[/tex]
hence, Richard saves 25.5 min (25 min and 30 s) when he drives with a speed of 80mph

=> The speed of the space ship can be found from this relationship: ✓(1 - [v^2/c^2] ) = 1/2.
=> The length of the space ship = 20 m.
=> Assumption = '' If the length of the ship is measured by the inertial earth-bound observer".
Thus, from the speed of the space ship can be found from this relationship we can determine the value;
✓(1 - [v^2/c^2] ) = 1/2.
V = 20 × 1/2 = 10 metres.
Note that we use the contraction formula to solve for V.
An electromagnetic wave is propagating towards the west. At a certain moment the direction of the magnetic field vector associated with this wave points vertically up. The direction of the electric field vector of this wave is:___________
Answer:
either +z direction or -z direction.
Explanation:
The direction of the electric field, in an electromagnetic wave always is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field and the direction of propagation of the wave.
You assume a system of coordinates with the negative x axis as the west direction, and the y axis as the up direction
In this case, the wave is propagating toward the west (- x direction), and the magnetic field vector points up (+ y direction), then, it is mandatory that the electric field vector points either +z direction or -z direction.
Two vectors having magnitudes of 5.00 and 9.00 respectively. If the value of their dot product is 12.0, find the angle between the two vectors.
Answer:
C = 74.53°
Explanation:
Let the magnitudes of 5.00 and 9.00 be vectors A and B respectively, hence the dot product of this vector is defined as
A.B = |A||B|cosC; let C be the angle between the vectors
12 = 5×9 cos C
Hence cos C = 12/45
C = cos^-1(12/45)
C = 74.53°
Some runners train with parachutes that trail behind them to provide a large drag force. These parachutes are designed to have a large drag coefficient. One model expands to a square 1.8 m on a side, with a drag coefficient of 1.4. A runner completes a 200 m run at 5.0 m/s with this chute trailing behind. Part A How much thermal energy is added to the air by the drag force
Answer:
13.9 kJ
Explanation:
Given that
Length of the side, l = 1.8 m
Drag coefficient, C(d) = 1.4
Distance of run, d = 200 m
Velocity of run, v = 5 m/s
Density, ρ = 1.23
Using the Aerodynamics Drag Force formula. We have
F(d) = 1/2.ρ.A.C(d).v²
The Area, A needed is 1.8 * 1.8 = 3.24 m². So that,
F(d) = 1/2 * 1.23 * 3.24 * 1.4 * 5²
F(d) = 139.482/2
F(d) = 69.74
recall that, energy =
W = F * d
W = 69.74 * 200
W= 13948
W = 13.9kJ
Therefore, the thermal energy added to the air by the drag force is 13.9kJ
An industrial flywheel (a solid disk) of mass 10.0 kg and radius 17.3 cm is rotating at an angular speed of 22.0 rad/s. Upon being switched to a slower setting, the flywheel uniformly slows down to 13.5 rad/s after rotating through an angle of 13.8 radians. Calculate the angular acceleration of the flywheel in the process of slowing down
Answer:
Explanation:
During slowing down , initial angular velocity ω₁ = 22 rad /s
final angular velocity ω₂ = 13.5 rad /s
using the law's of motion formula for rotation
ω₂² = ω₁² + 2 αθ , α is angular acceleration and θ is angle in radian rotated during this period
13.5² = 22² - 2xα x 13.8
2xα x 13.8 = 484 - 182.25
α = 10.93 rad / s²
When a fuel is burned in a cylinder fitted with a piston, the volume expands from an initial value of 0.250 L against an external pressure of 2.00 atm. The expansion does 288 J of work on the surroundings. What is the final volume of the cylinder
Answer:
Vf = 0.0017 m³ = 1.7 L
Explanation:
The work done by the system on the surrounding at constant pressure is given by the following formula:
W = PΔV
W = P(Vf - Vi)
where,
W = Work done = 288 J
P = Constant Pressure = (2 atm)(101325 Pa/atm) = 202650 Pa
Vf = Final Volume f Cylinder = ?
Vi = Initial Volume of Cylinder = (0.25 L)(0.001 m³/ 1 L) = 0.00025 m³
Therefore,
288 J = (202650 Pa)(Vf - 0.00025 m³)
Vf = 288 J/202650 Pa + 0.00025 m³
Vf = 0.0017 m³ = 1.7 L
A particle moving along the x-axis has a position given by m, where t is measured in s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle at the instant when its velocity is zero
Question:
A particle moving along the x-axis has a position given by x=(24t - 2.0t³)m, where t is measured in s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle at the instant when its velocity is zero
Answer:
24 m/s
Explanation:
Given:
x=(24t - 2.0t³)m
First find velocity function v(t):
v(t) = ẋ(t) = 24 - 2*3t²
v(t) = ẋ(t) = 24 - 6t²
Find the acceleration function a(t):
a(t) = Ẍ(t) = V(t) = -6*2t
a(t) = Ẍ(t) = V(t) = -12t
At acceleration = 0, take time as T in velocity function.
0 =v(T) = 24 - 6T²
Solve for T
[tex] T = \sqrt{\frac{-24}{6}} = \sqrt{-4} = -2 [/tex]
Substitute -2 for t in acceleration function:
a(t) = a(T) = a(-2) = -12(-2) = 24 m/s
Acceleration = 24m/s
The battery on your car has a rating stated in ampere minute which permit you to estimate the length of time a fully charged battery could deliver any particular current before discharge. Approximately how much energy is stored by a 50 ampere minute 12 volt battery
Answer:
Thus, the energy stored by a 50 Ampere minute battery is found to be 36 KJ.
Explanation:
The power delivered by a battery is given by the formula:
P = VI
where,
P = Power Delivered by battery in 1 second
V = Voltage of battery = 12 volt
I = Current stored in battery
But, if we multiply both sides of equation by time (t), then:
Pt = VIt
where,
Pt = Power x Time = E = Energy Stored = ?
It = Rating of Battery = (50 A.min)(60 sec/min) = 3000 A.sec
Therefore,
E = (12 volt)(3000 A.sec)
E = 36000 J = 36 KJ
Thus, the energy stored by a 50 Ampere minute battery is found to be 36 KJ.
A jet plane is flying at a constant altitude. At time t1=0t 1=0, it has components of velocity vx=90m/s,vy=110m/sv x = 90m/s,v y=110m/s. At time t2=30.0st 2=30.0s, the components are vx=−170m/s,vy=40m/sv x =−170m/s,v y=40m/s.
(a) Sketch the velocity vectors at t1and t2.
How do these two vectors differ? For this time interval calculate
(b) the components of the average acceleration, and
(c) the magnitude and direction of the average acceleration.
The average acceleration [tex]\vec a_{\rm ave}[/tex] over some time interval [tex][t_1,t_2][/tex] is equal to the ratio of the change in velocity [tex]\vec v_2-\vec v_1[/tex] over the duration of the interval [tex]t_2-t_1[/tex], or
[tex]\vec a_{\rm ave}=\dfrac{\Delta\vec v}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{\vec v_2-\vec v_1}{t_2-t_1}[/tex]
which can be split into the [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] components as
[tex]a_{\rm{ave},x}=\dfrac{v_{2,x}-v_{1,x}}{t_2-t_1}=\dfrac{-170\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-90\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}}{30.0\,\mathrm s-0}\approx-8.67\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex]
[tex]a_{\rm{ave},y}=\dfrac{v_{2,y}-v_{1,y}}{t_2-t_1}=\dfrac{40\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-110\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}}{30.0\,\mathrm s-0}\approx-2.33\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex]
The magnitude of this average acceleration is
[tex]\left\|\vec a_{\rm ave}\right\|=\sqrt{{a_{\rm{ave},x}}^2+{a_{\rm{ave},y}}^2}\approx8.98\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex]
and its direction is [tex]\theta[/tex] such that
[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{a_{\rm{ave},y}}{a_{\rm{ave},x}}\implies\theta\approx-164.9^\circ[/tex]
which corresponds to a direction of about 15.1º South of West.
Three identical 6.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up from left to right and a force is applied to the left side of the left cube causing all three cubes to accelerate to the right at 2.0 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the force exerted on the middle cube by the left cube in this case
Answer:
24 Newtons
Explanation:
The force exerted in the middle cube needs to be enough to move the middle cube and the right cube with an acceleration of 2 m/s2.
The mass of those two cubes combined is 6 + 6 = 12 kg
So, using the following equation, we can find the force:
Force = mass * acceleration
Force = 12 * 2
Force = 24 Newtons
A dart is inserted into a spring-loaded dart gun by pushing the spring in by a distance . For the next loading, the spring is compressed a distance . How much faster does the second dart leave the gun compared with the first
Complete question is;
A dart is inserted into a spring - loaded dart gun by pushing the spring in by a distance x. For the next loading, the spring is compressed a distance 2x. How much faster does the second dart leave the gun compared to the first?
Answer:
The second dart leaves the gun two times faster than the first one.
Explanation:
If we assume there was no energy loss during the spring - dart energy transfer, we can easily apply the principle of conservation of energy. So;
Potential energy = kinetic energy
Thus;
½kx² = ½mv²
Making velocity "v" the subject, we have;
v = √(kx²/m)
Since the initial distance is "x", thus initial launching velocity is;
v1 = √(kx²/m)
Since next distance is 2x, thus, second launch velocity is;
v2 = √(k(2x)²/m)
Expanding, we have;
v2 = √(4kx²/m)
v2 = 2√(kx²/m)
Comparing this to the one gotten for v1 earlier, we can see that it is double v1.
So, v2 = 2v1
Hence, The second dart leaves the gun two times faster than the first one.

=> [tex]F_{T1} -ma = ma[/tex]
=> [tex]F_{T1} = 2 ma[/tex]

A small rock with mass 0.12 kg is fastened to a massless string with length 0.80 m to form a pendulum. The pendulum is swinging so as to make a maximum angle of 45 ∘ with the vertical. Air resistance is negligible. Part A What is the speed of the rock when the string passes through the vertical position
Answer:
v = 3.33 m/s
Explanation:
In the position of 45 degrees, all the energy of the rock is gravitational, then we have:
E = m*g*L*cos(angle)
and in the vertical position of the string, all the energy is kinetic, so we have:
E = m*v^2/2
If there is no dissipation, both energies are equal, so we have:
m*g*L*cos(45) = m*v^2/2
9.81 * 0.8 * 0.7071 * 2 = v^2
v^2 = 11.0986
v = 3.33 m/s
If you jumped out of a plane, you would begin speeding up as you fall downward. Eventually, due to wind resistance, your velocity would become constant with time. While your velocity is constant, the magnitude of the force of wind resistance is

When your velocity is constant, the net force acting on you is 0. That means the upwards force of air resistance must fully balance the downwards force of gravity on you, which is Mg.
An object is thrown vertically and has an upward velocity of 18 m/s when it reaches one fourth of its maximum height above its launch point. What is the initial (launch) speed of the object
Answer:
v = 25.45 m/s
Explanation:
In order to calculate the initial speed of the object, you take into account the formula for the maximum height reaches by the object. Such a formula is given by:
[tex]h_{max}=\frac{v_o^2}{g}[/tex] (1)
vo: initial speed of the object = 18 m/s
g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s²
Furthermore you use the following formula for the final speed of the object:
[tex]v^2=v_o^2-2gh[/tex] (2)
h: height
You know that the speed of the object is 18m/s when it reaches one fourth of the maximum height. You use this information, and you replace the equation (1) in to the equation (2), as follow:
[tex]v^2=v_o^2-2g(\frac{h_{max}}{4})=v_o^2-\frac{1}{2}g(\frac{v_o^2}{g})\\\\v^2=v_o^2-\frac{1}{2}v_o^2=\frac{1}{2}v_o^2[/tex]
Then, you solve the previous result for vo:
[tex]v_o=\sqrt{2}v=\sqrt{2}(18m/s)=25.45\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The initial speed of the object was 25.45 m/s
assume that the initial speed is 25 m/s and the angle of projection is 53 degree above the hroizontal. the cannon ball leaves the uzzel of the cannon at a highet of 200 m.( the cannon is at the edge of the cliff) A: find the horizontal distance the cannon travles. B: when does the cannon ball reach the ground? C: find the maximum highet the cannon ball reaches.
Answer:
A. xmax = 131.49 m
B. t = 8.74 s
C. ymax = 220.33 m
Explanation:
A. In order to find the horizontal distance which cannon travels you first calculate the flight time. The flight time can be calculated by using the following formula:
[tex]y=y_o+v_osin\theta-\frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex] (1)
yo: height from the projectile is fired = 200m
vo: initial velocity of the projectile = 25m/s
g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2
θ: angle between the direction of the initial motion of the ball and the horizontal = 53°
t: time
You need the value of t when the projectile hits the ground. Then, in th equation (1) you make y = 0m.
When you replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1), you obtain the following quadratic formula:
[tex]0=200+(25)sin53\°t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2\\\\0=200+19.96t-4.9t^2[/tex] (2)
You use the quadratic formula to obtain the value of t:
[tex]t_{1,2}=\frac{-19.96\pm\sqrt{(19.96)^2-4(-4.9)(200)}}{2(-4.9)}\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{-19.96\pm65.71}{-9.8}\\\\t_1=8.74s\\\\t_2=-4.66s[/tex]
You use the positive value because it has physical meaning.
Now, you can calculate the horizontal range of the projectile by using the following formula:
[tex]x_{max}=v_ocos\theta t[/tex]
[tex]x_{max}=(25m/s)(cos53\°)(8.74s)=131.49m[/tex]
The cannon ball travels a horizontal distance of 131.49 m
B. The cannon ball reaches the canon for t = 8.74s
C. The maximum height is obtained by using the following formula:
[tex]y_{max}=y_o+\frac{v_o^2sin^2\theta}{2g}[/tex] (3)
By replacing in the equation (3) the values of all parameters you obtain:
[tex]y_{max}=200m+\frac{(25m/s)^2(sin53\°)^2}{2(9.8m/s^2)}\\\\y_{mac}=200m+20.33m=220.33m[/tex]
The maximum height reached by the cannon ball is 220.33m
An LC circuit has a 6.00 mH inductor. The current has its maximum value of 0.570 A at t =0s. A short time later the capacitor reaches its maximum potential difference of 66.0 V. What is the value of the capacitance?
Answer:
C = 44.75 x 10⁻⁸ F
Explanation:
Assuming no loss of energy between capacitor and inductor
energy in inductor initially = 1/2 Li₀² where L is inductance and i₀ is peak current .
= .5 x 6 x 10⁻³ x .57²
= .97 x 10⁻³ J .
This energy is transferred to capacitor .
energy of capacitor = 1/2 CV²
= .5 x C x 66²
= 2178 C
2178C = .97 x 10⁻³
C = 44.75 x 10⁻⁸ F .
The magnetic energy stored in the inductor is transformed into electrical energy stored in the capacitor. The value of capacitance for the given circuit is 44.75 x 10⁻⁸ F
Finding the capacitance:According to the law of conservation of energy, the magnetic energy stored in the inductor will be gradually lost and this energy will be stored in the capacitor as electrical energy.
Initially, the energy in the inductor is:
E = 1/2 Li₀²
where L is inductance
and i₀ is peak current.
E = 0.5 × 6 × 10⁻³ × (0.57)²
E = 0.97 × 10⁻³J
This energy is transformed into electrical energy stored in the capacitor.
So the capacitor energy is:
E = 1/2 CV²
where C is the capacitance
E = 0.5 × C × 66²
E = 2178 C
0.97 x 10⁻³ = 2178 C
C = 44.75 x 10⁻⁸ F

A horizontal force of 150 N is used to push a 40.0-kg packing crate a distance of 6.00 m on a rough horizontal surface. If the crate moves at constant speed, find (a) the work done by the 150-N force and (b) the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and surface.
Answer:
a. 900 J
b. 0.383
Explanation:
According to the question, the given data is as follows
Horizontal force = 150 N
Packing crate = 40.0 kg
Distance = 6.00 m
Based on the above information
a. The work done by the 150-N force is
[tex]W = F x = \mu N x = \mu\ m\ g\ x[/tex]
[tex]W = 150 \times 6[/tex]
= 900 J
b. Now the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and surface is
[tex]\mu = \frac {F}{m\timesg}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{150}{40\times 9.8}[/tex]
= .383
We simply applied the above formulas so that each one part could calculate
We want to find the work and kinetic friction for the given situation. The solutions are:
a) W = 900 N*mb) μ = 0.38Here we have a horizontal force of 150N pushing a 40.0 kg packing crate a distance of 6.00m at a constant speed.
a) First we want to find the work, it is given by the force applied times the distance moved, so the work is just:
W = 150N*6.00m = 900 N*m
b) Now we want to find the coefficient of kinetic friction, it must be such that the kinetic friction force is equal to the pushing force, in this way there is no net force, and then there is no acceleration.
Remember that the friction force is:
F = m*g*μ
Where:
m = mass of the box = 40 kgg = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2μ = coefficient of kinetic friction.Then we must solve:
150N = 40kg*(9.8 m/s^2)*μ = 392N*μ
150N/392N = 0.38
So the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the surface is 0.38

Answer:
They had the same speed.
Explanation:
It won't be velocity, because velocity is a vector quantity. Speed is scalar.
Velocity is the rate of change of displacement. During their periods of travel, the cars definitely had the same velocity.
What is Velocity?Velocity is the directional speed of a moving object as an indicator of its rate of change in location as perceived from a certain frame of reference and measured by a specific time standard.
Given that the first car travels 40 meters due east in 5 seconds. Therefore, we can write,
Distance = 40 meters
Time = 5 seconds
Velocity = Distance / Time = 40 meter/ 5 sec = 40 m/sec
Also, given that the second car travels 64 meters due west in 8 seconds. Therefore, we can write,
Distance = 64 meters
Time = 8 seconds
Velocity = Distance / Time = 64 meter/ 8 sec = 8 m/sec
Hence, During their periods of travel, the cars definitely had the same velocity.

Three sheets of plastic have unknown indices of refraction. Sheet 1 is placed on top of sheet 2, and a laser beam is directed onto the sheets from above so that it strikes the interface at an angle of 26.50 with the normal. The refracted beam in sheet 2 makes an angle of 31.70 with the normal. The experiment is repeated with sheet 3 on top of sheet 2, and with the same angle of incidence, the refracted beam makes an angle of 36.70 with the normal. If the experiment is repeated again with sheet 1 on top of sheet 3, determine the expected angle of refraction in sheet 3? Assume the same angle of incidence.
Answer:
The angle of refraction of sheet 3 when sheet 1 is on top of it is [tex]\theta_{r_s } = 23.1 ^o[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The angle of incidence is [tex]\theta _i = 26.50 ^o[/tex]
The angle of refraction angle for sheet 1 is [tex]\theta _{r_1}} = 31.70 ^o[/tex]
The angle of refraction for sheet 3 is [tex]\theta _{r_3}} = 36.70 ^o[/tex]
According to Snell's law
[tex]\frac{n_2}{n_1} = \frac{sin (\theta_1)}{sin (\theta_{r_1})}[/tex]
Where [tex]n_1 \ and \ n_2[/tex] are refractive index of sheet 1 and sheet 2
=> [tex]n_2 = n_1 \frac{sin(\theta_i)}{sin (\theta _{r_1})}[/tex]
Also when sheet 3 in on top of sheet 2
[tex]\frac{n_2}{n_3} = \frac{sin \theta_i}{sin \theta_{r_3}}[/tex]
substituting for [tex]n_2[/tex]
[tex]n_1 \frac{sin(\theta_i)}{sin (\theta _{r_1})} = n_3 \frac{sin \theta_i}{sin \theta_{r_3}}[/tex]
[tex]n_1 \frac{sin(\theta_i)}{sin (\theta _{r_1})} = n_3 \frac{sin \theta_i}{sin \theta_{r_3}}[/tex]
=> [tex]n_3 = n_1 * \frac{sin(\theta_{r_3})}{sin(\theta_{r_1})}[/tex]
when sheet 1 in on top of sheet 3
[tex]\frac{n_3}{n_1} = \frac{sin(\theta_i)}{\theta_{r_s}}[/tex]
where [tex]r_s[/tex] is the angle of refraction when sheet 1 is on top of sheet 3
substituting for [tex]n_3[/tex]
[tex]\frac{ n_1 * \frac{sin(\theta_{r_3})}{sin(\theta_{r_1})}}{n_1} = \frac{sin(\theta_i)}{\theta_{r_s}}[/tex]
=> [tex]sin (\theta _{r_s}) = n_1 * sin (\theta_i) * \frac{sin (\theta_{r_1})}{ n_1 * sin(\theta_{r_3})}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]sin (\theta _{r_s}) = n_1 * sin (26.50) * \frac{sin (31.70)}{ n_1 * sin(36.70)}[/tex]
=> [tex]\theta_{r_s } = sin^{-1} (0.3923)[/tex]
=> [tex]\theta_{r_s } = 23.1 ^o[/tex]

The coefficient of kinetic friction between a couch and the floor is 0.4. If the
couch has a mass of 35 kg and you push it with a force of 200 N. what is the
net force on the couch as it slides?
O A. 337 N
B. 143 N
O C. 343 N
O D. 63 N
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Now the net force is the applied force minus the frictional force; this is expressed mathematically as:
Fnet= Fappplied - Ffrictional
Now the frictional force is given as ;
Coefficient of friction × normal reaction
Normal reaction is the weight of the human acting in opposite direction.
Normal reaction of the human is ;
35 × 9.8 = 343N { note that weight = m× g and g= 9.8m/S2, a known standard }
Hence the Frictional force =343×0.4 =137.20N
Hence Fnet = 200-137.20 = 62.8N
Fnet = 63N to the nearest whole
The net force on the couch as it slides is 63N.
What is frictional force?
When an object is moving on a rough surface, it experiences opposition. This opposing force is called the friction force.
The friction force is given by
f = coefficient of friction x Normal force
Given, the coefficient of kinetic friction between a couch and the floor is 0.4. If the couch has a mass of 35 kg and you push it with a force of 200 N.
Normal reaction is the weight of the human acting in opposite direction.
Normal reaction N =35 × 9.8 = 343N
Frictional force f =0.4 x 343
f =137.20N
The net force will be
Fnet= Fappplied - Ffrictional
Fnet = 200-137.20 = 62.8N
Fnet = 63N
Thus, the net force on the couch as it slides is 63N.

g it as been suggested that solar powered space ships could get a boost from a laser either on earth or in orbit around earth. the laser would have to be very powerful to give any measurable benefit to the ship. if the laser produces a 0.18-m diameter beam of 490-nm light, what is the minimum angular spread of the beam?
Answer:
The minimum angular spread of the laser beam is 3.32 × [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] radians (or 3.32 μrad).
Explanation:
The minimum angular spread of a wave is the ratio of its narrowest diameter to its wavelength.
From Rayleigh's formula,
Angular spread = 1.22 (wavelength ÷ diameter)
= 1.22 (λ ÷ D)
Given that:
diameter, D = 0.18 m and wavelength, λ = 490 nm, then;
Angular spread of the laser beam = 1.22 (λ ÷ D)
= 1.22[tex](\frac{490*10^{-9} }{0.18})[/tex]
= 1.22× 2.7222 × [tex]10^{-6}[/tex]
= 3.3211 × [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] rad
The minimum angular spread of the laser beam is 3.32 × [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] radians.

The correct answer is D. electric current being forced uphill by the battery back to the positive terminal.
What is Electric Current?
Electric current is the flow of electric charge through a conducting medium, such as a wire, due to the movement of electrons or ions. The flow of charge is typically caused by the presence of an electric field that creates a potential difference (voltage) between two points in a circuit
In an electrical circuit, pipes are analogous to wires or conductive paths that allow the flow of electric current. The flow of electric current is from the positive terminal of the battery to the negative terminal, which is opposite to the direction of conventional current flow. Therefore, option C is incorrect.
