Answer:
41.2°
Explanation:
Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.
The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.
Since
n= 1/sin C
C= sin^-(1/n)
C= sin^-(1/1.33)
C= 48.8°
Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°
y=k/x, x is halved.
what happens to the value of y
Answer:
y is doubled
Explanation:
If x is halved, that means the value is doubled. Here is an exmaple:
y=1/2. If the denominater is doubled, y would equal y=1/1. So, the value of y has doubled from 0.5 to 1. Therefore, if the denominator is halved, the solution will be doubled.

A car is travelling west at 22.2 m/s when it accelerated for 0.80 s to the west at 2.68 m/s2. Calculate the car's final velocity. Show all your work.
Answer:
24.34 m/s
Explanation:
recall that one of the equations of motions takes the form:
v = u + at
where,
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity (given as 22.2 m/s)
a = acceleration (given as 2.68m/s²)
t = time elapsed during acceleration (given as 0.80s)
since we are told that the the acceleration is in the direction of the intial velocity, we can simply substitute the known values into the equation above:
v = u + at
v = 22.2 + (2.68) (0.8)
v = 24.34 m/s
Approximating the eye as a single thin lens 2.70 cmcm from the retina, find the focal length of the eye when it is focused on an object at a distance of 265 cmcm
Answer:
0.37 cm
Explanation:
The image is formed on the retina which is at a constant distance of 2.70 cm to the lens. Therefore, image distance = 2.70 cm.
The object is at a distant of 265 cm to the lens of the eye.
From lens formula,
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{u}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{v}[/tex]
where: f is the focal length, u is the object distance and v is the image distance.
Thus, u = 265.00 cm and v = 2.70 cm.
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{265}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{27}{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{10+7155}{2650}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7165}{2650}[/tex]
⇒ f = [tex]\frac{2650}{7165}[/tex]
= 0.37
The focal length of the eye is 0.37 cm.
A particle undergoes damped harmonic motion. The spring constant is 100 N/m, the damping constant is 8.0 x 10-3 kg.m/s, and the mass is 0.050 kg. If the particle starts at its maximum displacement, x = 1.5 m, at time t = 0. What is the amplitude of the motion at t = 5.0 s?
Answer:
The amplitude [tex]A(5) = 1 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The spring constant is [tex]k = 100 \ N/m[/tex]
The damping constant is [tex]b = 8.0 *10^{-3} \ kg \cdot m/s[/tex]
The mass is [tex]m = 0.050 \ kg[/tex]
The maximum displacement is [tex]A_o = 1.5 \ m \ at t = 0[/tex]
The time considered is t = 5.0 s
Generally the displacement(Amplitude) of damped harmonic motion is mathematically represented as
[tex]A(t) = A_o * e ^{ - \frac{b * t}{2 * m} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]A(5) = 1.5 * e ^{ - \frac{ 8.0 *10^{-3} * 5}{2 * 0.050} }[/tex]
[tex]A(5) = 1 \ m[/tex]

g When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel 3.2 10-15 m before interacting. From this information, find the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur.
Answer:
Time, [tex]t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel [tex]3.2\times 10^{-15}\ m[/tex] before interacting.
Let t is the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur. It will move with the speed of light. So,
[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{c}\\\\t=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-15}}{3\times 10^8}\\\\t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s[/tex]
So, the time interval is [tex]1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s[/tex]
A laboratory electromagnet produces a magnetic field of magnitude 1.38 T. A proton moves through this field with a speed of 5.86 times 10^6 m/s.
a. Find the magnitude of the maximum magnetic force that could be exerted on the proton.
b. What is the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the proton?
c. Would the field exert the same magnetic force on an electron moving through the field with the same speed? (Assume that the electron is moving in the direction as the proton.)
1. Yes
2. No
.Answer;
Using Fmax=qVB
F=(1.6*10^-19 C)(5.860*10^6 m/s)(1.38 T)
ANS=1.29*10^-12 N
2. Using Amax=Fmax/ m
Amax =(1.29*10^-12 N) / (1.67*10^-27 kg)
ANS=1.93*10^15 m/s^2*
3. No, the acceleration wouldn't be the same. Since The magnitude of the electron is equal to that of the proton, but the direction would be in the opposite direction and also Since an electron has a smaller mass than a proton
A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from the impact: one travels in the air and the other in the concrete, and they are 0.50 s apart. The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, and in concrete is 3000 m/s.
Required:
How far away did the impact occur?
Answer:
The distance is [tex]d = 193.6 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The time interval between the sounds is k[tex]t_1 = k + t_2[/tex] = 0.50 s
The speed of sound in air is [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]
The speed of sound in the concrete is [tex]v_c = 3000 \ m/s[/tex]
Generally the distance where the collision occurred is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = v * t[/tex]
Now from the question we see that d is the same for both sound waves
So
[tex]v_c t = v_s * t_1[/tex]
Now
So [tex]t_1 = k + t[/tex]
[tex]v_c t = v_s * (t+ k)[/tex]
=> [tex]3000 t = 343* (t+ 0.50)[/tex]
=> [tex]3000 t = 343* (t+ 0.50)[/tex]
=> [tex]t = 0.0645 \ s[/tex]
So
[tex]d = 3000 * 0.0645[/tex]
[tex]d = 193.6 \ m[/tex]
A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is the period if the amplitude of the motion is doubled
Answer:
The period of the motion will still be equal to T.
Explanation:
for a system with mass = M
attached to a massless spring.
If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A
and has period T
The equation for the period T is given as
[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }[/tex]
where k is the spring constant
If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.
Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.
Two long straight wires carry currents perpendicular to the xy plane. One carries a current of 50 A and passes through the point x = 5.0 cm on the x axis. The second wire has a current of 80 A and passes through the point y = 4.0 cm on the y axis. What is the magnitude of the resulting magnetic field at the origin?
Answer:
450 x10^-6 T
Explanation:
We know that the magnetic of each wire is derived from
ByB= uoi/2pir
Thus B1= 4 x 3.14 x 10^-7 x50/( 2 x 3.142x 0.05)
= 0.2 x 10^ -3T
B2=
4 x 3.14 x 10^-7 x80/( 2 x 3.142x 0.04)
= 0.4 x 10^ -3T
So
(Bnet)² = (Bx)² + ( By)²
= (0.2² + 0.4²)mT
= 450 x10^-6T
The magnitude of magnetic field at the origin is required.
The magnitude of resulting magnetic field at origin is [tex]447.2\ \mu\text{T}[/tex]
x = Location at x axis = 5 cm
y = Location at y axis = 4 cm
[tex]I_x[/tex] = Current at the x axis point = 50 A

[tex]\mu_0[/tex] = Vacuum permeability = [tex]4\pi\times 10^{-7}\ \text{H/m}[/tex]
Magnitude of the magnetic field is given by
[tex]B=\dfrac{\mu_0I}{2\pi r}[/tex]
Finding the net magnetic field using the Pythagoras theorem
[tex]B^2=B_x^2+B_y^2\\\Rightarrow B^2=\left(\dfrac{\mu_0I_x}{2\pi x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\mu_0I_y}{2\pi y}\right)^2\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{I_x}{x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{I_y}{y}\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}}{2\pi}\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{50}{0.05}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{80}{0.04}\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow B=0.0004472=447.2\ \mu\text{T}[/tex]

A speeding car has a velocity of 80 mph; suddenly it passes a cop car but does not stop. When the speeding car passes the cop car, the cop immediately accelerates his vehicle from 0 to 90 mph in 4.5 seconds. The cop car has a maximum velocity of 90 mph. At what time does the cop car meet the speeding car and at what distance?
Answer:
Distance= 4 miles
Time = 36.3 seconds
Explanation:
80 mph = 178.95 m/s
90 mph = 201.32 m/s
V = u +at
201.32= 0+a(4.5)
201.32/4.5= a
44.738 m/s² = a
Acceleration of the cop car
= 44.738 m/s²
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the cop car
S= ut + ½at²
S= 0(4.5) + ½*44.738*4.5
S= 100.66 meters
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the speeding car
4.5*178.95=805.275
The cop car will still cover 704.675 +x distance while the speeding car covers for their distance to be equal
X/178.95= (704.675+x)/201.32
X-0.89x= 626.37
0.11x= 626.37
X= 5694.3 meters
The time = 5694.3/178.95
Time =31.8 seconds
So the distance they meet
= 5694.3+805.275
= 6499.575 meters
= 4.0 miles
The Time = 4.5+31.8
Time = 36.3 seconds
If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, how many counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample?
Answer:
6000 counts per secondExplanation:
If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1
In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;
x count per second = 3 meter ... 2
Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter
x counts per second = 3 meter
Cross multiply to get x
2000 * 3 = 1* x
6000 = x
This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample

Two imaginary spherical surfaces of radius R and 2R respectively surround a positive point charge Q located at the center of the concentric spheres. When compared to the number of field lines N1 going through the sphere of radius R, the number of electric field lines N2 going through the sphere of radius 2R is
Answer:
N2 = ¼N1
Explanation:
First of all, let's define the terms;
N1 = number of electric field lines going through the sphere of radius R
N2 = number of electric field lines going through the sphere of radius 2R
Q = the charge enclosed at the centre of concentric spheres
ε_o = a constant known as "permittivity of the free space"
E1 = Electric field in the sphere of radius R.
E2 = Electric field in the sphere of radius 2R.
A1 = Area of sphere of radius R.
A2 = Area of sphere of radius 2R
Now, from Gauss's law, the electric flux through the sphere of radius R is given by;
Φ = Q/ε_o
We also know that;
Φ = EA
Thus;
E1 × A1 = Q/ε_o
E1 = Q/(ε_o × A1)
Where A1 = 4πR²
E1 = Q/(ε_o × 4πR²)
Similarly, for the sphere of radius 2R,we have;
E2 = Q/(ε_o × 4π(2R)²)
Factorizing out to get;
E2 = ¼Q/(ε_o × 4πR²)
Comparing E2 with E1, we arrive at;
E2 = ¼E1
Now, due to the number of lines is proportional to the electric field in the each spheres, we can now write;
N2 = ¼N1
Test Bank, Question 18.83 Inside a room at a uniform comfortable temperature, metallic objects generally feel cooler to the touch than wooden objects do. This is because: a given mass of wood contains more heat than the same mass of metal the human body, being organic, resembles wood more closely than it resembles metal metal conducts heat better than wood heat tends to flow from metal to wood
Answer:
metal conducts heat better than wood.
Explanation:
Metals are generally good conductors of heat, and they usually conduct heat at a relatively rapid rate. Inside the room with a uniform temperature, a metal when touched will rapidly conduct the heat from your hand, leaving your hand with a cooler feeling. Wood on the other hand is a poor heat conductor, so the heat is not conducted from your hand fast enough to cool it up to the point that your hand feels cool.

A car accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a speed of 22.7 m/s in 9.02 s. Assume the diameter of a tire is 58.5 cm. (a) Find the number of revolutions the tire makes during this motion, assuming that no slipping occurs. rev (b) What is the final angular speed of a tire in revolutions per second? rev/s
(a) The car is undergoing an acceleration of
[tex]a=\dfrac{22.7\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-0}{9.02\,\mathrm s}\approx2.52\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex]
so that in 9.02 s, it will have covered a distance of
[tex]x=\dfrac a2(9.02\,\mathrm s)^2\approx102\,\mathrm m[/tex]
The car has tires with diameter d = 58.5 cm = 0.585 m, and hence circumference π d ≈ 1.84 m. Divide the distance traveled by the tire circumference to determine how many revolutions it makes:
[tex]\dfrac{102\,\mathrm m}{1.84\,\mathrm m}\approx55.7\,\mathrm{rev}[/tex]
(b) The wheels have average angular velocity
[tex]\omega=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2=\dfrac{\theta_f-\theta_i}{\Delta t}[/tex]
where [tex]\omega[/tex] is the average angular velocity, [tex]\omega_i[/tex] and [tex]\omega_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular velocities (rev/s), [tex]\theta_i[/tex] and [tex]\theta_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular displacements (rev), respectively, and [tex]\Delta t[/tex] is the duration of the time between initial and final measurements. The second equality holds because acceleration is constant.

A. How many neutrons are in Mg-25?
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
Answer:
A. number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass number. This is due to the difference in mass of the neutrons.
The atomic number of Magnesium Mg = 12
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the atomic nucleus of the element
i.e Atomic number = number of protons = 12
The mass number of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of the element.
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
Given that the mass number of Mg = 25
Then;
25 = 12 + number of neutrons
25 - 12 = number of neutrons
13 = number of neutrons
number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
The average atomic mass of an element which exhibit isotopy is the average mass of its various isotopes as they occur naturally in any quantity of the element.
Therefore the average atomic mass of magnesium can be calculated as:
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(23.9872 \times 79.70) + ( 24.9886 \times 10.13) + (25.9846 \times 10.17) }{79.7 + 10.13 +10.17}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(1911.77984) + ( 53.134518) + (264.263382) }{100}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{2229.17774 }{100}}[/tex]
The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
The average atomic weight of magnesium on Earth is said to be 24.305 amu while that of Mars is 22.29 amu.
There difference in the average atomic weight result into difference in their composition. Therefore,the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.
A brick weighs 50.0 N, and measures 30.0 cm × 10.0 cm × 4.00 cm. What is the maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight?
Answer:
Pressure, P = 1250 Pa
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of a brick, F = 50 N
Dimension of the brick is 30.0 cm × 10.0 cm × 4.00 cm
We need to find the maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight. Pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. Pressure exerted is inversely proportional to the area of cross section. So, we need to minimize area. Taking to smaller dimensions.
A = 40 cm × 10 cm = 400 cm² = 0.04 m²
So,
Pressure,
[tex]P=\dfrac{50\ N}{0.04\ m^2}\\\\P=1250\ Pa[/tex]
So, the maximum pressure of 1250 Pa it can exert on a horizontal surface.
The maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight will be 1250 Pascal.
What is pressure?The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure. It is denoted by P.
The given data in the problem is;
W is the weight of a brick = 50 N
The dimension of the brick = 30.0 cm × 10.0 cm × 4.00 cm
A is the area,
The area is found as;
A=40 cm × 10 cm = 400 cm² = 0.04 m²
The pressure is the ratio of the force and area
[tex]\rm P = \frac{F}{A} \\\\ \rm P = \frac{50}{0.04} \\\\ \rm P =1250 \ Pascal[/tex]
Hence the maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight will be 1250 Pascal.

Did the kinetic frictional coefficient (for the wood/aluminum and felt/aluminum cases) vary with area of contact
Answer:
Explanation:
Friction is defined as a force which acts at the surface of separation between two objects in contact and tends to oppose motion of one over the other.
While kinetic friction is the force that must be overcome so that a body can move with uniform speed over another.
Hence let consider one of the laws of friction which states that: '' Frictional force is independent of the area of the surfaces in contact.''
The value did not vary with area. This is because when calculating the kinetic fiction, the total contact area is not relevant and only the total weight of the system as well of as the block is put into consideration.
A stereo speaker produces a pure "G" tone, with a frequency of 392 Hz. What is the period T of the sound wave produced by the speaker?
Answer:
The period is [tex]T = 0.00255 \ s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The frequency is [tex]f = 392 \ Hz[/tex]
Generally the period is mathematically represented as
[tex]T = \frac{1}{f}[/tex]
=> [tex]T = \frac{1}{ 392}[/tex]
=> [tex]T = 0.00255 \ s[/tex]
