What is the index of refraction of a material for which the wavelength of light is 0.671 times its value in a vacuum

Answers

Explanation:

We need to find the index of refraction of a material for which the wavelength of light is 0.671 times its value in a vacuum.

The wavelength in any medium is given by :

[tex]\lambda_m=\dfrac{\lambda}{n}[/tex]

Where, [tex]\lambda[/tex] is wavelength in vacuum and n is refractive index of the medium.

[tex]n=\dfrac{\lambda}{\lambda_m}\\\\n=\dfrac{\lambda}{0.671\lambda}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{0.671}\\\\=1.49[/tex]

So, the medium can be PMMA (acrylic, plexiglas, lucite, perspex) which have a refractive index of 1.49.

The index of refraction of the material for which the wavelength of light is 0.671 times, the value of it in a vacuum is 1.49.

What is the index of refraction of a material?

The index of refraction of a material is the ratio of wavelength of the wave in vacuum to the wavelength of the wave in the given medium.

The index of refraction is inversely proportional to the wavelength. It can be find out using the following formula.

[tex]n=\dfrac{\lambda}{\lambda_m}[/tex]

Here, (λ) is the wavelength in vacuum and (λm) is the wavelength in a medium.

The index of refraction of a material for which the wavelength of light is 0.671 times its value in a vacuum (0.671×λ).

Plug in the values in the above formula,

[tex]n=\dfrac{\lambda}{0.671\times\lambda}\\n=1.49[/tex]

Thus, the index of refraction of the material for which the wavelength of light is 0.671 times, the value of it in a vacuum is 1.49.

The bowling ball in the following figure is whizzing down the bowling lane at 4 m/s. If the mass of the bowling ball is 7 kg, what is its kinetic energy?

Answers

Answer:

Answer for this question is 3590792.

Answer:

56 Joules

Explanation:

We are given:

Mass of the Ball = 7 kg

Velocity of the Ball=  4 m/s

Kinetic Energy of the Ball:

We know that:

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 (Mass * Velocity²)

replacing the values

Kinetic Energy = 1/2(7 * (4)²)

Kinetic Energy = 1/2(7 * 16)

Kinetic Energy = 56 Joules

A rock of mass 0.340 kg is spun horizontally at the end of a wire that has a diameter of 1.00 mm. If the wire gets stretched by 2.00 mm when the rock moves at a speed of 19.0 m/s, what is the Young's modulus of the wire?

Answers

Answer:

Y = 78.13 x 10⁹ Pa = 78.13 GPa

Explanation:

First we will find the centripetal force acting on the wire as follows:

F = mv²/r

where,

F = Force = ?

m = mass of rock = 0.34 kg

v = speed = 19 m/s

r = length of wire

Therefore,

F = (0.34)(19)²/r

F = 122.74/r  

now, we find cross-sectional area of wire:

A = πd²/4

where,

A = Area = ?

d = diameter of wire = 1 mm = 0.001 m

Therefore,

A = π(0.001)²/4

A = 7.85 x 10⁻⁷ m²

Now, we calculate the stress on wire:

Stress = F/A

Stress = (122.74/r)/(7.85 x 10⁻⁷)

Stress = 1.56 x 10⁸/r

Now, we calculate strain:

Strain = Δr/r

where,

Δr = stretch in length = 2 mm = 0.002 m

Therefore,

Strain = 0.002/r

now, for Young's modulus (Y):

Y = Stress/Strain

Y = (1.56 x 10⁸/r)/(0.002/r)

Y = 78.13 x 10⁹ Pa = 78.13 GPa

A stone sphere of radius 7.00 m rests in a flat field. Relative to the ground, what is the gravitational potential energy of a 90.0-kg person sitting on the very top of the sphere?
a. 7.76 x 104 J
b. 1.23 x 104 J
c. 3.88 x 104 J

Answers

Answer:

(B)  1.23 x 10 J

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the sphere, r = 7.0 m

diameter of the sphere, d = 2r = 14.0 m

mass of the person sitting on the sphere, m = 90.0 kg

The gravitational potential energy of the person is given by;

P.E = mgh

where;

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h is the height above the ground level = d = 14.0 m

P.E = mgh

P.E = (90)(9.8)(14)

P.E = 12348 J

P.E = 1.2348 x 10 J

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy of the person is 1.2348 x 10 J

Red light of wavelength 633 nmnm from a helium-neon laser passes through a slit 0.400 mmmm wide. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen 2.90 mm away. Define the width of a bright fringe as the distance between the minima on either side.

Required:
a. What is the width of the central bright fringe?
b. What is the width of the first bright fringe on either side of the central one?

Answers

Answer:

a

 [tex]y_1 = 0.004589 \ m[/tex]

b

 [tex]y_2 =0.009179 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The wavelength of the red light is  [tex]\lambda _r = 633 \ nm = 633 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

    The width of the slit is  [tex]d = 0.40 mm = 0.40 *10^{-3} \ m[/tex]

    The distance of the screen from the point of diffraction is [tex]D = 2.9 \ m[/tex]

Generally the width of the central bright fringe is mathematically represented as

       [tex]y_1 = \frac{\lambda * D}{d}[/tex]

=>    [tex]y_1 = \frac{633 *10^{-9} * 2.90 }{0.40 *10^{-3}}[/tex]

=>    [tex]y_1 = 0.004589 \ m[/tex]

Generally the width of the first bright fringe on either side of the central one is mathematically represented as

     [tex]y_2 = 2 * y_1[/tex]

=>   [tex]y_2 = 2 * 0.004589[/tex]

=>   [tex]y_2 =0.009179 \ m[/tex]

A block with a mass of 10 kg is pulled at a 20 degree angle with a force of 75 N. The force of friction acting on the block is 15 N. What is the acceleration of the block in m/s??
Round your answer to the nearest tenth. (Numbers Only!
Type your answer

Answers

There are 4 forces acting on the block:

• its weight (magnitude w = m g = 98 N, where m = 10 kg and g = 9.80 m/s²), pointed downward

• the normal force (mag. n), pointed upward

• friction (mag. f = 15 N), pointing opposite the direction of motion

• the pulling force (mag. p = 75 N), pointing at a 20° angle with the positive horizontal direction

Let the direction in which the block is being pulled be the positive horizontal direction, and upward the positive vertical direction. Split up each force into their horizontal and vertical components, then apply Newton's second law. We have a net horizontal force of

F = p cos(20°) - f = m a

where a is the acceleration of the block. The net vertical force is 0, since the block gets dragged along the surface and doesn't move up or down (presumably).

Solve for a :

(75 N) cos(20°) - 15 N = (10 kg) a

a ≈ 5.4 m/s²

A free body diagram consists of a diagrammatic representation of a single body or a subsystem of bodies isolated from its surroundings showing all the forces acting on it.

Given is a block of cheese is pulled on by a string and slides to the right along a rough surface.

The free body diagram of the cheese block is given with the image attached. The force applied for the forward motion of the block is greater in magnitude than the frictional force. The weight of the block is balanced by the normal reaction force. The following mathematical relations can be written -

F - F(f) = ma

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is  D

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The maximum electric field strength is  [tex]E = 1.0 *10^{11} \ V/m[/tex]

   The  area is  [tex]A = 5.0 \ mm^2 = 5.0 *10^{-6} \ m^2[/tex]

Generally the force the laser applies is mathematically represented as

       [tex]F = \epsilon_o * E ^2 * A[/tex]

Here  [tex]\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} C/(V \cdot m)[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

Distance covered by the ball S = 9m

initial velocity u = 0m/s

Required

velocity at the bottom of the hill (final velocity)

Using the equation of motion

v² = u²+2gS

v² = 0²+2(9.8)(9)

v² = 18(9.8)

v² = 176.4

v = √176.4
