Answer:
Refractive index of the plastic = 1.46
Explanation:
By Snell's law,
[tex]\frac{\text{sin}\theta _{2} }{\text{sin}\theta _{1}}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}[/tex]
Here, [tex]\theta _1[/tex] = Angle of incidence in medium 1 (Plastic)
[tex]\theta_2[/tex] = Angle of refraction in medium 2 (Water)
[tex]n_1[/tex] = Refractive index of medium 1 (Plastic)
[tex]n_2[/tex] = Refractive index of medium 2 (Water)
By substituting values in the formula,
[tex]\frac{\text{sin}(48.7)}{\text{sin}(55.5)}=\frac{1.33}{n_2}[/tex]
[tex]n_2=\frac{1.33\times \text{sin}(55.5)}{\text{sin}(48.7)}[/tex]
= 1.46
Therefore, refractive index of the plastic = 1.46
You have to move your 100 N couch before a delivery company drops off your new one. Unfortunately your roommate is passed out on it. The coefficient of friction between the couch and floor is .43. It takes 250 N of force to get the couch moving. a) How much does your roommate weigh in Newton’s? b) After you get the couch moving it only takes 200 N to keep it moving at a constant speed, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction?
Answer:
a) Weight of Roommate = 481.4 N
b) μk = 0.34
Explanation:
a)
The force required to move the couch must be equal to the force of friction:
F = frictional force
F = μW
W = F/μ
where,
W = Total Weight of Couch and Roommate
F = Force Required start to move couch = 250 N
μ = coefficient of static friction between couch and floor = 0.43
Therefore,
[tex]W = \frac{250 N}{0.43}\\\\W = 581.4 N[/tex]
So, the total weight is given as:
W = Weight of Couch + Weight of Roommate
Weight of Roommate = W - Weight of Couch
Weight of Roommate = 581.4 N - 100 N
Weight of Roommate = 481.4 N
b)
Now, the force required to keep the couch moving can be given as equal to the kinetic friction force:
F = kinetic friction
F = μk*W
μk = F/W
where,
μk = coefficient of kinetic friction = ?
F = Force required to keep the couch moving = 200 N
Therefore,
μk = 200 N/581.4 N
μk = 0.34
A Ferris wheel with 60 spokes has a diameter of 100 m. It makes one rotation every 60 seconds. Find the speed of the passengers when the Ferris wheel is rotating at this rate.
Answer:
The speed of the passengers is 5.24 m/s
Explanation:
Uniform Circular Motion
It occurs when an object in a circular path travels equal angles in equal times.
The angular speed can be calculated in two different ways:
[tex]\displaystyle \omega=\frac{v}{r}[/tex]
Where:
v = tangential speed
r = radius of the circle described by the rotating object
Also:
[tex]\omega=2\pi f[/tex]
Where:
f = frequency
Since the frequency is calculated when the number of revolutions n and the time t are known:
[tex]\displaystyle f=\frac{n}{t}[/tex]
The Ferris wheel has a diameter of 100 m and makes n=1 rotation in t=60 seconds, thus the frequency is:
[tex]\displaystyle f=\frac{1}{60}\ Hz[/tex]
The angular speed is:
[tex]\displaystyle \omega=2\pi \frac{1}{60} =\frac{\pi}{30} \ rad/s[/tex]
Now we calculate the tangential speed, solving this formula for v:
[tex]\displaystyle \omega=\frac{v}{r}[/tex]
[tex]v=\omega . r[/tex]
The radius is half the diameter, r=100/2=50 m:
[tex]\displaystyle v=\frac{\pi}{30} . 50[/tex]
Calculating:
v = 5.24 m/s
The speed of the passengers is 5.24 m/s
A ball of mass 4kg moving with a velocity of 20m/s collides with another ball of mass 15kg moving with a velocity of 15m/s in the same direction. Calculate the velocity of the 5kg ball if the collision is perfectly inelastic.
Answer:
velocity = 16.05 m/s
Explanation:
inelastic collision formula:
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2)v
m1 = 4kg
u1 = 20m/s
m2 = 15kg
u2 = 15m/s
find v ?
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2)v
(4×20) + (15×15) = (4+15)v
80 + 225 = 19v
305 = 19v
19v = 305
v = 305/19
v = 16.05 m/s

Explanation:
A herdsman yelling out to a fellow herdsman heard his voice reflected by a cliff 4s later.What is
the velocity of sound in air if the cliff is 680m away
Answer:
v = 340 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
A herdsman yelling out to a fellow herdsman heard his voice reflected by a cliff 4s later.
The cliff is 680 m away
We need to find the velocity of sound in air.
Velocity = distance/time
Distance = 2 × 680 = 1360 m
[tex]v=\dfrac{1360\ m}{4\ s}\\\\=340\ m/s[/tex]
So, the velocity of sound in air is 340 m/s.

An astronaut floating at rest in space throws a wrench in one direction and subsequently recoils back with a velocity in the opposite direction. Which of the following statements is/are true?
I. The velocity of the wrench is equal and opposite to the velocity of the astronaut.
Il. The momentum of the wrench is equal and opposite to the momentum of the astronaut.
III. The impulse applied to the wrench is equal and opposite to the impulse applied to the astronaut
a) ll and ill only
b) I only II only
c) I, II, and III
d) I and Il only
Answer:
a) ll and Ill only
Explanation:
Let the mass of the wrench = m
and the mass of the astronaut = M
Initially, the velocity of the astronaut and wrench are zero.
The astronaut throws the wrench in one direction and subsequently recoils back with a velocity in the opposite direction.
Let v and V be the velocity of the wrench and the velocity of the astronaut respectively.
In space, there is no external force acting, the momentum must be conserved.
So, m(0)+M(0)=m(v)+M(V)
So, 0=mv+MV
[tex]\Rightarrow mv=-MV[/tex] ...(i)
Here, the momentum of the wrench = mv, and the momentum of the astronaut= MV. The negative sign showing that both the momentum are in opposite direction.
Therefore, the momentum of the wrench is equal and opposite to the momentum of the astronaut.
According to Newton's second law, the rate of change of momentum = applied force.
Let it take [tex]\Delta t[/tex] seconds to change the momentum.
So, for the wrench
[tex]m(v-0)/\Delta t= F_w \\\\\Rightarrow m(v-0)=F_w\Delta t \\\\\Rightarrow mv=F_w\Delta t \cdots(ii)[/tex]
Here, [tex]F_w\Delta t[/tex] is the impulse applied to the wrench.
Similarly, for the astronaut
[tex]M(-V-0)/\Delta t= F_a[/tex] [negative sign (-V) for opposite direction]
[tex]\Rightarrow M(-V-0)=F_a\Delta t \\\\\Rightarrow -MV=F_a\Delta t[/tex]
Here, [tex]F_a\Delta t[/tex] is the impulse applied to the astronaut.
So, the impulse on the astronaut.
By using equations (i) and (ii)
[tex]F_a\Delta t=F_w\Delta t[/tex]
Therefore, the impulse applied to the wrench is equal and opposite to the impulse applied to the astronaut.
Hence, option (a) is correct.
Suppose that the separation between two speakers A and B is 6.60 m and the speakers are vibrating in-phase. They are playing identical 126-Hz tones and the speed of sound is 343 m/s. An observer is seated at a position directly facing speaker B in such a way that his line of sight extending to B is perpendicular to the imaginary line between A and B. What is the largest possible distance between speaker B and the observer, such that he observes destructive interference
Complete question
The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image
Answer:
The largest possible distance is [tex]e = 15.33 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The separation between Speaker at position A and B is AB = 6.60 m
The frequency of the tune which the speaker are playing is [tex]f = 126 \ Hz[/tex]
The speed of sound is [tex]v = 343 \ m/s[/tex]
Generally the wavelength of the tune playing is mathematically represented as
[tex]\lambda = \frac{v}{f}[/tex]
=> [tex]\lambda = \frac{343}{ 126}[/tex]
=> [tex]\lambda = 2.72 \ m[/tex]
Let the observer be at position D
Generally the distance A and is mathematically evaluated using Pythagoras theorem as
[tex]AC = \sqrt{AB ^2 + BC^2}[/tex]
Let BC = e
So
[tex]AC = \sqrt{6.60 ^2 + e^2}[/tex]
Generally the path difference between the first and the second speaker from the observer point of view is mathematically represented as
[tex]P = AC - BC[/tex]
=> [tex]P = \sqrt{6.60 ^2 + e^2} - e[/tex]
Generally the condition for destructive interference is mathematically represented as
[tex]P = (2n - 1 )\frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]
Here n is the order of the fringe which is one
=> [tex]\sqrt{6.60 ^2 + e^2} - e = (2 * 1 - 1 )\frac{2.72}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]\sqrt{6.60 ^2 + e^2} - e = 1.36[/tex]
=> [tex]6.60 ^2 + e^2 =( 1.36 +e)^2[/tex]
=> [tex]6.60 ^2 + e^2 =1.8496 + 2.72e +e^2[/tex]
=> [tex]e = 15.33 \ m[/tex]

identical spheres are dropped from a height of 100 m above the surfaces of Planet X and Planet Y. The speed of the spheres as a function of time is recorded for each planet in the graph
above. Which planet exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, and what evidence supports this conclusion?
A Planet X because its line has the greater area under it.
Planet X, because its line has the greater slope
Planet Y. because it falls for the smaller amount of time
Planet Y because the object's final speed is greater
Answer:
B. Planet X, because its line has the greater slope.
Explanation:
In a speed graph, acceleration is slope. A greater slope means a greater acceleration. According to Newton's 2nd law (F=mg), a greater acceleration means a greater force.
Planet X exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, because its line has the greater slope. Hence option B is correct.
What is Gravitational Force ?Gravitational force is force of attraction between two masses. Gravitational force(F) between two bodies is directly proportion to the product of masses(m₁,m₂) of two bodies and inversely proportional to square of distance(r) between them. mathematically it is written as,
F ∝ m₁.m₂
F ∝ 1/r²
F = G m₁,m₂÷r²
where G is gravitational constant, whose value is 6.6743 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg-1s⁻².
Force is expressed in Newton N in SI unit. its dimensions are [M¹L¹T⁻²].
This is analogous with coulomb's law which gives force between two charges.
if a planet has greater gravitational force(force of gravity), then body falls with greater speed as compare to other planet which is having less force of gravity. we can see in case of planet X there is greater speed as compare to plane Y in short time. Hence option B is correct.

The rate of change of velocity or speed is known as acceleration. If a car increases it speed form 10 to 20m/s in 2 seconds, then what is its rate of change in velocity?
A) 5 m/s/s
B) 10 m/s/s
C) 20 m/s/s
D) 40 m/s/s
Answer:
A) 5 m/s/s
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity = 10m/s²
Final velocity = 20m/s²
Time, t = 2 seconds.
In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.
This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.
Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.
Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;
[tex]Acceleration, a = \frac{final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}[/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex]Acceleration, a = \frac{20 - 10}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Acceleration, a = \frac{10}{2}[/tex]
Acceleration, a = 5m/s²
Pelican hunts fish in the water as th pelican the waters surface why must it aim for the fish in a slightly different place than where the fish appears to be located
The Pelican must aim differently than where the fish appears to be because light is refracted from air to water.
Refraction is the change in the direction of a wave at the interface between two media. The effects of refraction are easily seen when light is travelling from air to water hence objects are not really where they appear to be when viewed above the water surface.
Hence, the Pelican must aim differently than where the fish appears to be because light is refracted from air to water.

A 300 g bird flying along at 6.0 m/s sees a 10 g insect heading straight toward it with a speed of 30 m/s. the bird opens its mouth wide and enjoys a nice lunch. What is the bird's speed immediately after swallowing?
Answer:
6.77m/s
Explanation:
Using the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
m1 and m2 are the masses of the object
u1 and u2 are the velocities before collision
v is the final collision
Given
m1 = 300g = 0.3kg
u1 = 6.0m/s
m2 = 10g = 0.01kg
u2 = 30m/s
Required
The bird's speed immediately after swallowing v
Substitute the given values into the formula
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
0.3(6) + 0.01(30) = (0.3+0.01)v
1.8+0.3 = 0.31v
2.1 = 0.31v
v = 2.1/0.31
v = 6.77m/s
Hence the bird's speed immediately after swallowing is 6.77m/s

40 seconds. Calculate the power input. (Take g = 10 m/s²)
Answer:
Power_input = 85.71 [W]
Explanation:
To be able to solve this problem we must first find the work done. Work is defined as the product of force by distance.
[tex]W = F*d[/tex]
where:
W = work [J] (units of Joules)
F = force [N] (units of Newton)
d = distance [m]
We need to bear in mind that the force can be calculated by multiplying the mass by the gravity acceleration.
Now replacing:
[tex]W = (80*10)*3\\W = 2400 [J][/tex]
Power is defined as the work done over a certain time. In this way by means of the following formula, we can calculate the required power.
[tex]P=\frac{W}{t}[/tex]
where:
P = power [W] (units of watts)
W = work [J]
t = time = 40 [s]
[tex]P = 2400/40\\P = 60 [W][/tex]
The calculated power is the required power. Now as we have the efficiency of the machine, we can calculate the power that is introduced, to be able to do that work.
[tex]Effic=0.7\\Effic=P_{required}/P_{introduced}\\P_{introduced}=60/0.7\\P_{introduced}=85.71[W][/tex]
