Answer:

Speed is same as that before it entered glass.

Explanation:

Given:

A light ray enters and passes through the glass as shown in the diagram.

We have to analyze its speed.

Speed of light in air is [tex]3\times 10^8\ ms^-^1[/tex] and speed of light in glass is [tex]2.25\times 10^8\ ms^-^1[/tex]

Whenever a light ray enters a glass block or slab there is bending of light at the interface of the two media.

So speed of light will decrease in glass medium and again it passes to the air.

So

Speed of light in air will again increase or will be equivalent to the earlier speed when it was entering the glass block.

Finally

Speed is same as that before it entered glass as it in the same medium (air).

Speed of light is same as that before it entered glass. Option D is correct.

Refraction:

When a light ray move from one medium to another, it slows down, hence  bend.

Here, light ray from air enters from the air to glass and emerges out of the glass block.

Speed of light in air is [tex]\bold {3x10^8\ m /s}[/tex]

Speed of light in glass is [tex]\bold {2.25 x10^8\ m /s}[/tex]

Since, the light ray was in the air is same before entering in to the glass.

Therefore, speed of light is same as that before it entered glass.

Explanation:

Solution:-

- A wire of arbitrary shape,which is confined to the x-y plane,carries a current I from point A to point B in the x-y plane.

- See diagram (attached) for clarity.

- Let’s assume that the horizontal distance between A and B is "s" and the vertical distance between A and B is "d". Then for the straight line path vector ( L ):

                    L = s i^ + d j^

- The force on the straight wire with current I is then:

                    F = I * ( L x B )

Where,  L: The path vector between points A and B

             B: The magnetic field strength vector

For the curved wire vector "ds = dx i^ + dy j^" and the force on the wire is:

                   F = ∫ [ I (ds x B) = I ∫ (dx i^ + dy j^) x B

When current "I" and magnetic field "B" are uniform then we can pull both of them out of the integral. Separate the integral and calculate each differential separately:

                  F = I ∫ (dx i^) x B + I ∫ (dy j^) x B

                     = I (s i^ x B) + I ( d j^ x B ) = I ( L x B )

- The force of curved and straight line have the same force:

                 F = I ( L x B ) acting on them.

Answer:

a) It took 1.28 seconds to Neil Armstrong's voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.

b) The minimum time that will be required for a message from Mars to reach the Earth via radio waves is 192 seconds.

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is the distribution of radiation due to the different frequencies at which it radiates and its different intensitie. That radiation is formed by electromagnetic waves, which are transverse waves formed by an electric field and a magnetic field perpendicular to it.

The distribution of the radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum can also be given in wavelengths, but it is more frequent to work with it at frequencies:

Any radiation that belongs to electromagnetic spectrum has a speed in vacuum of [tex]3x10^{8}m/s[/tex].  

a) Find the time it took for his voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.

To know the time that took for Neil Armstrong's voice to reach the Earth via radio waves, the following equation can be used:

[tex]c = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]  (1)

Where v is the speed of light, d is the distance and t is the time.

Notice that t can be isolated from equation 1.

[tex]t = \frac{d}{c}[/tex]  (2)

The distance from the Earth to the Moon is [tex]3.85x10^{8} m[/tex], therefore.

[tex]t = \frac{3.85x10^{8} m}{3x10^{8}m/s}[/tex]

[tex]t = 1.28s[/tex]

Hence, it took 1.28 seconds to Neil Armstrong's voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.

b) Determine the minimum time that will be required for a message from Mars to reach the Earth via radio waves.

The distance from the Earth to the Mars at its closest approach is [tex]5.76x10^{10}m[/tex], therefore.

[tex]t = \frac{5.76x10^{10}m}{3x10^{8}m/s}[/tex]

[tex]t = 192s[/tex]

Hence, the minimum time that will be required for a message from Mars to reach the Earth via radio waves is 192 seconds.

Volume of bucket [tex]V=10\ gallon[/tex]

Time taken to fill the bucket [tex]t=50\ s[/tex]

so volume flow rate is [tex]\dot{V}=\frac{10}{50}=0.2\ gal/s[/tex]

1 gal is equivalent to [tex]0.133\ ft^3[/tex]

[tex]\dot{V}=0.0267\ ft^3/s[/tex]

mass flow rate [tex]\dot{m}=\rho \times \dot{V}[/tex]

[tex]\dot{m}=62.4\times 0.0267[/tex]

[tex]\dot{m}=1.668\ lbs[/tex]

(b)Average velocity through nozzle exit

[tex]\dot{V}=Av_{avg}[/tex]

[tex]v_{avg}=\dfrac{0.0267}{\frac{\pi}{4}\times (0.0262)^2}[/tex]

[tex]v_{avg}=49.51\ ft/s[/tex]

The volume flow rate is 757.082 cm^3/sec and the mass flow rate is 757.082 g/sec. The average velocity of the water at the nozzle exit is approximately 476.677 cm/sec.

To solve this problem, we first need to figure out the volume and mass flow rates of the water. Given that 1 gallon = 3.78541 liters, and 1 liter = 1,000 cm3, a 10-gallon bucket contains 10 * 3.78541 * 1000 = 37,854.1 cm3. If it takes 50 seconds to fill this bucket, we can calculate the volume flow rate as volume/time = 37,854.1 cm3/50 s = 757.082 cm3/s.

The mass flow rate can be determined by multiplying this volume flow rate by the density of water (1 g/cm3), giving a result of 757.082 g/s.

To find the average velocity of the water at the nozzle exit, we use the equation of continuity which states that the volume flow rate must be constant at all points in the pipe. Therefore, the velocity at the nozzle can be found by dividing the flow rate by the cross-sectional area of the nozzle (pi * (d/2)2). This gives an average velocity of about 476.677 cm/s.

The total energy of the pendulum is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude. Hence, if the amplitude is increased by a factor of 4, the total energy in the system will increase by a factor of 16.

The subject of your question is related to the energy of a pendulum in simple harmonic motion. The total energy stored in an oscillating pendulum depends on the square of its amplitude. The total energy E of an oscillator is the sum of its kinetic energy K = mu² / 2 and the elastic potential energy of the force U(x)= k_x²/2 (formula for potential energy in a harmonic oscillator). These two forms of energy: kinetic energy and potential energy oscillate back and forth but their sum remains constant.

Since the total energy ETotal = (1/2)kA² is proportional to the square of the amplitude, if the amplitude of the pendulum's oscillations is increased by a factor of 4, this means you're multiplying the square of the quantity by 4. As a result, the energy in the pendulum increases by a factor of 4² which is 16.

So, as the amplitude of the pendulum increases by a factor of 4, the total energy increases by a factor of 16.

The fraction of the distance from the central maximum to the first minimum where the intensity is I1 is 1/2.

The intensity at the central maximum of a double-slit interference pattern is 4I1 and the intensity at the first minimum is zero. To find the fraction of the distance from the central maximum to the first minimum, we can use the formula for intensity in double-slit interference:

I = 4I1 cos2(πd/λ)

At the first minimum, the intensity is zero. Therefore, we have:

0 = 4I1 cos2(πd/λ)

Simplifying this equation, we find that cos2(πd/λ) = 0.

If cos2(πd/λ) = 0, then cos(πd/λ) = 0.

And if cos(πd/λ) = 0, then πd/λ = π/2.

Solving for d/λ, we get d/λ = 1/2. Therefore, the fraction of the distance from the central maximum to the first minimum where the intensity is I1 is 1/2.

The two forces acting on a falling object are gravity and air resistance (option 3). Gravity causes the object to accelerate toward Earth, while air resistance acts in the opposite direction, slowing the object down.

The two forces acting on a falling object are gravity and air resistance (option 3). When an object is dropped, it accelerates toward the center of the Earth due to the force of gravity. In a vacuum, where there is no air, the only force acting on a falling object is its weight, which is the force due to gravity acting on an object of mass m. However, in the real world, objects are not in perfect free-fall because they experience air resistance, which opposes the motion of the object as it falls through the air.

Answer:

1. The planet doesn't have a thick enough atmosphere.

2. There have been multiple impacts on the planet.

Explanation:

As the planet is very close to the star, there is high possibility that it will not have an atmosphere. Just like Mercury doesn't have one. Presence of a very large crater with basin indicates that in the past a huge body had hit the planet and thus creating the crater with basin. Also, it must be very old.

Second observation that is given is the presence of smaller craters in the basin. This indicates impact craters created by smaller objects. If the planet had an atmosphere, these smaller objects would not be able to penetrate and reach the surface. Thus presence of these smaller crater indicate towards the planet not having any atmosphere.

Answer:

A negative charge

Explanation:

If there is an excess of electrons in a substance, this will have a negative net charge. This is because electrons have negative charge

q = -1.67*10^{-19}

each electron will contribute with this charge to the total negative net charge of the substance.

hence, the answer is "A negative charge"

A substance with an excess number of electrons on its surface has a negative charge due to the negatively charged nature of electrons.

If a substance has an excess number of electrons on its surface, it will have a negative charge. This is because electrons have a negative charge, and having more electrons than protons results in a net negative charge for the substance. By contrast, if a substance had more protons than electrons, it would have a positive charge. Substances are typically electrically neutral when the number of electrons equals the number of protons, and this balance means there is no net electric charge.

An atom that gains one or more electrons will exhibit a negative charge and is called an anion. Conversely, when an atom loses one or more electrons, it becomes a positively charged atom, also known as a cation. For instance, when a neutral sodium atom loses one electron, it becomes a sodium cation with a 1+ charge. Conversely, an oxygen atom that gains two electrons becomes an anion with a 2- charge.

From the equation of the motion we can get the acceleration of the elevator:

h = X0+ V0t + at2/2;

Th elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration. Initial velocity Vo = 0, also Xo = 0; thus

a = 2h/t2 = 2 × 1/1.7^2

a = 0.69 m/s2.

Explanation:

Data:

M = 500g = 0.5kg

T1 = 10°C = (10 + 273.15)K = 285.15K

T2 = 80°C = (80 + 273.15)K = 353.15K

Q = ?

C = 4186J/kg.K

Q = mc(T2 - T1)

Q = 0.5 * 4186 * (353.15 - 285.15)

Q = 0.5 * 4186 * 68

Q = 142324J

Q = 142.324kJ.

The heat absorbed by a 500g sample of water when heated from 10°C to 80°C is calculated using the heat transfer formula q=mcΔT. Here m is mass ie, 0.5kg, c is specific heat capacity i.e., 4186 J/kg*°C, and ΔT is change in temperature i.e., 70°C. After substituting these values in the formula, we find that the heat absorbed, q, is approximately 146300 J.

The question refers to the equation q = mcΔT for calculating heat transfer, where 'q' represents the heat absorbed, 'm' denotes mass, 'c' represents specific heat capacity, and 'ΔT' denotes the change in temperature. In this case, by inserting the values into equation, we have q = (0.5 kg) * (4186 J/kg*°C) * (80°C - 10°C). After resolving this, we find q equals approximately to 146300 J, which is the amount of heat absorbed by the water.

a) 4.25 x 10∧-5 T

b) 16.03 mv

Explanation:

the solution is shown in the pictures attached

The maximum magnetic field that could be induced at the base of the power line towers would be around 1.67 µT, directed upwards. For a person lying down near the base of these power lines, the approximate maximum emf produced around their perimeter would be about 5.6 mV. The magnetic field strength is quite weak and its likelihood to cause biological impact is low.

First, for (a), the field is the result of both sources, with one of the currents in opposite direction. So, we can just take the double of it, giving us that the magnitude of magnetic field is B = (2μ₀I)/(2πr). Plugging the known values in, we get B = 2 x (4π x 10⁻⁷ Tm/A) x (4x10⁴A) / (2πx19m) approximately equal to 1.67 µT directed upward.

For (b), we will consider the person as a rectangular coil. In this case, we can use Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction which states that emf = -N ∆Φ/∆t, where ∆Φ is the change in magnetic flux and N is the amount of loops or turns. Here, N=1 as the person is considered as a single loop.

The flux changes from B*A to -B*A, so ∆Φ = 2BA. Resulting, emf = (2BA Δt) with Δt = 1/120 second (as it's 60 Hz, so frequency = 2 per every 1/60 seconds). Plugging all the known values, we get emf approximately equal to 0.0056 V or 5.6 mV. Even though it changes over time, this magnetic field strength is still very weak and thus, is less likely to cause biological effects.

Modern oil filters are designed to remove very small particulates from engine oil, thus protecting the engine from wear and damage. However, Technician A is incorrect; changing the oil filter alone will not keep the oil perfectly clean over time. The oil itself can degrade and become contaminated with substances that an oil filter cannot remove, such as acids and water, which is why regular oil changes are also necessary. Therefore, the correct answer is B) Technician B only.

Explanation:

The intensity of a beam is

          I = P / A

Where P is the emitted power which is 3) 3

Let's use index 1 for the initial position of r₁ = 6 ft and 2 for the second position r₂ = 3 ft

          I₁ A₁  = I₂  A₂

           I₂ = I₁ A₁ / A₂

The area of ​​the beam if we assume that it is distributed either in the form of a sphere is

           A₁ = 4π r²

We substitute

            I₂ = I₁ (r₁ / r₂)²

           I₂ = 8 mG

Answer:

The amount of exposure that will be received at 3 ft is 8 mGy

Explanation:

Here, we note that the  amount of radiation exposure of the radiographer is given by the inverse square law. That is the amount of radiation exposure is directly proportional to the inverse square of the distance that is

[tex]\frac{Old \, \, Intensity}{New \, \, \, Intensity} = \frac{(New\, distance)^2}{(Old\, distance)^2} \therefore \frac{2}{New \, \, \, Intensity} = \frac{3^2}{6^2}[/tex]

Or New intensity = [tex]2\times \frac{36}{9}[/tex]  = 8mGy

Therefore, the amount of exposure that will be received at 3 ft = 8 mGy.

(a) The resonant frequency where current is maximum is: f_res = 1 / (2π√(LC)) ≈ 323.74 Hz.

(b) The maximum rms current is: I_max = V / √(R^2 + (1 / (2πf_resC))^2 + (2πf_resL)^2) ≈ 4.51 A.


Here's a step-by-step solution for both parts of the problem:

(a) Finding the resonant frequency:

Identify the formula: The resonant frequency (f_res) of a series RLC circuit is given by:

f_res = 1 / (2π√(LC))

Plug in values: Substitute the given values of inductance (L = 15.2 mH = 0.0152 H) and capacitance (C = 15.9 μF = 15.9 × 10^-6 F) into the formula:

f_res = 1 / (2π√(0.0152 H × 15.9 × 10^-6 F))

Calculate: Use a calculator to evaluate the expression:

f_res ≈ 323.74 Hz

Therefore, the current is maximum at a frequency of approximately 323.74 Hz.

(b) Finding the maximum rms current:

Identify the formula: The rms current (I) in a series RLC circuit is given by:

I = V / √(R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2)

where:

V is the generator voltage (203 V)

R is the resistance (10.5 Ω)

X_L is the inductive reactance (2πfL)

X_C is the capacitive reactance (1 / (2πfC))

Calculate reactances at resonant frequency:

X_L = 2πf_resL ≈ 30.15 Ω

X_C = 1 / (2πf_resC) ≈ 30.15 Ω (at resonance, X_L and X_C are equal)

Plug in values: Substitute the values into the formula:

I = 203 V / √(10.5 Ω^2 + (30.15 Ω - 30.15 Ω)^2)

Simplify and calculate:

I ≈ 203 V / 10.5 Ω ≈ 4.51 A

Therefore, the maximum rms current in the circuit is approximately 4.51 A.

The frequency at which the current is maximum in the given RLC circuit is approximately 326 Hz, and the maximum value of the RMS current is about 19.3 A.

To solve the question, we need to work with the concepts of an RLC circuit driven by an AC source.

Let's break down the steps:

The frequency at which the current is a maximum in an RLC circuit is the resonant frequency. This can be calculated using the formula:

Given:

Plugging in these values:

At resonance, the impedance Z is equal to the resistance R. The maximum RMS current can be calculated using Ohm's Law:

[tex]I(max) = \( \frac{V(rms)}{R} \)[/tex]

Given:

Plugging in these values:

Therefore, the frequency at which the current is maximum is approximately 326 Hz, and the maximum value of the RMS current is approximately 19.3 A.

Answer

When the light goes from one medium to another medium with higher refractive index the velocity of the ray decreases, wavelength of the ray also decreases.

But the frequency of the ray when it enters the medium of higher refractive index remain same.

So, we can conclude that speed of ray and wavelength decrease but frequency remain unchanged.

When light moves from a material to another material with a higher index of refraction, it changes its path due to refraction.

When light goes from one material into another material having a higher index of refraction, it changes its path as a result of refraction. The angle between the ray and the normal (the line perpendicular to the surfaces of the two media) is less in the medium with the lower refractive index.

You would read the diagram counterclockwise, with positions 7 to 3 as the moon increases light and positions 3 to 7 as the moon decreases light.

Therefore, we see that our 2 choices where we have a crescent is positions 6 and 8.
