xhxjjdvcbxhjddvifidid
Answer:
The units of frequency are called hertz (Hz). Humans with normal hearing can hear sounds between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz. Frequencies above 20,000 Hz are known as ultrasound
The indices of refraction for her contact lens, cornea, and the fluid behind her cornea are 1.6, 1.4, and 1.3, respectively. Light is incident from air onto her contact lens at an angle of 30 ∘∘ from the normal of the surface. At what angle is the light traveling in the fluid behind her cornea?
Answer:
[tex]23^{\circ}[/tex]
Explanation:
n = Refractive index of air = 1
[tex]n_1[/tex] = Refractive index of contact lens = 1.6
[tex]n_2[/tex] = Refractive index of cornea = 1.4
[tex]n_3[/tex] = Refractive index of fluid = 1.3
From Snell's law
[tex]n\sin30^{\circ}=n_1\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow \theta=\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1\sin30^{\circ}}{1.6}\\\Rightarrow \theta=18.21^{\circ}[/tex]
[tex]n_1\sin\theta=n_2\sin\theta_1\\\Rightarrow \theta_{1}=\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1.6\times \sin18.21^{\circ}}{1.4}\\\Rightarrow \theta_1=20.92^{\circ}[/tex]
[tex]n_2\sin\theta_1=n_3\sin\theta_3\\\Rightarrow \theta_3=\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1.4\sin20.92^{\circ}}{1.3}\\\Rightarrow \theta_3=22.62^{\circ}\approx 23^{\circ}[/tex]
The angle is the light traveling in the fluid behind her cornea is [tex]23^{\circ}[/tex].
The angle is the light traveling in the fluid will be 23⁰. Light is traveling in a particular direction with an angle.
What is snell law?"The ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant, for the light of a given color and for a given set of media,
The given data in the problem is;
n is the refractive index of air = 1
n₁ is the refractive index of contact lens = 1.6
n₂ is the refractive index of cornea = 1.4
n₃ is the refractive index of fluid = 1.3
According to Snell's law. The formula for Snell's law is
[tex]\rm n sin30^0 = n_1 sin\theta \\\\ \theta = sin^{- 1}(\frac{1sin30^0}{1.6} )\\\\ \theta = 18.21 ^0[/tex]
For contact lenses;
[tex]\rm n_1sin\theta = n_2 sin\theta_1 \\\\ \theta_1 = sin^{-1}\frac{1.6 \times sin 18.21^0}{1.4} \\\\ \theta_1 =20.92 ^0[/tex]
For fluid;
[tex]n_2 sin\theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_3\\\\ \theta_3 = sin^{-1}\frac{1.4 sin 20.92^0}{1.3} \\\\ \theta_3 = 22.62 ^ 0 =23^0[/tex]
Hence the angle is the light traveling in the fluid will be 23⁰.

A 0.545-kg ball is hung vertically from a spring. The spring stretches by 3.56 cm from its natural length when the ball is hanging at equilibrium. A child comes along and pulls the ball down an additional 5cm, then lets go. How long (in seconds) will it take the ball to swing up and down exactly 4 times, making 4 complete oscillations before again hitting its lowest position
Answer:
t = 9.52 s
Explanation:
This is an oscillatory motion exercise, in which the angular velocity is
w = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }[/tex]
Let's use hooke's law to find the spring constant, let's write the equilibrium equation
F_e - W = 0
F_e = W
k x = m g
k = [tex]\frac{m g}{x}[/tex]
k = 0.545 9.8 /0.0356
k = 150 N / m
now the angular velocity is related to the period
W = 2π / T
we substitute
4π² T² = k /m
T = 4pi² [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{m}{k} }[/tex]
we substitute
T = 4 pi² [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{0.545}{150} }[/tex]
T = 2.38 s
therefore for the spring to oscillate 4 complete periods the time is
t = 4 T
t = 4 2.38
t = 9.52 s

What is Force ?.............
Answer:
Push or pull of an object is considered a force. Push and pull come from the objects interacting with one another. Terms like stretch and squeeze can also be used to denote force.
In Physics, force is defined as:
The push or pull on an object with mass that causes it to change its velocity.
Force is an external agent capable of changing the state of rest or motion of a particular body. It has a magnitude and a direction. The direction towards which the force is applied is known as the direction of the force and the application of force is the point where force is applied.
A 3kg horizontal disk of radius 0.2m rotates about its center with an angular velocity of 50rad/s. The edge of the horizontal disk is placed in contact with a wall, and the disk comes to rest after 10s. Which of the following situations associated with linear impulse is analogous to the angular impulse that is described?
a. A 3kg block is initially at rest. An applied force of 3N is applied to the block, but the block does not move.
b. A 3kg block is initially at rest. A net force of 3N is applied to the block until it has a speed of 10m/s.
c. A 3kg block is initially traveling at 10m/s. An applied force of 3N is applied to the block in the direction of its velocity vector for 10s.
d. A 3kg block is initially traveling at 10m/s. The block encounters a 3N frictional force until the block eventually stops.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
From the information given:
The angular speed for the block [tex]\omega = 50 \ rad/s[/tex]
Disk radius (r) = 0.2 m
The block Initial velocity is:
[tex]v = r \omega \\ \\ v = (0.2 \times 50) \\ \\ v= 10 \ m/s[/tex]
Change in the block's angular speed is:
[tex]\Delta _{\omega} = \omega - 0 \\ \\ = 50 \ rad/s[/tex]
However, on the disk, moment of inertIa is:
[tex]I= mr^2 \\ \\ I = (3 \times 0.2^2) \\ \\ I = 0.12 \ kgm^2[/tex]
The time t = 10s
∴
Frictional torques by the wall on the disk is:
[tex]T = I \times (\dfrac{\Delta_{\omega}}{t}) \\ \\ = 0.12 \times (\dfrac{50}{10}) \\ \\ =0.6 \ N.m[/tex]
Finally, the frictional force is calculated as:
[tex]F = \dfrac{T}r{}[/tex]
[tex]F= \dfrac{0.6}{0.2} \\ \\ F = 3N[/tex]

What is characteristic of a good insulator?
A. Electrons are usually not moving at all.
B. Electrons are free to move around.
C. Electrons are semi-free to move around.
D. Electrons are tightly bound to the nuclei.
Answer:
D. Electrons are tightly bound to the nuclei.
Explanation:
In an insulator, the electrons of the outer most shell are bound with a very high electrostatic forces coming from the nucleus of each atom so electrons cannot flow around all atoms making up the material as in a conductor.
The characteristic of a good insulator is Electrons are tightly bound to the nuclei. (option d)
In a good insulator, electrons are tightly bound to the nuclei of their atoms. This means that they are not free to move around within the material, unlike conductors where electrons are relatively loosely bound and can move freely. Due to this strong binding, electrons in insulating materials cannot carry an electric charge or energy easily from one atom to another.
When an electric field is applied to an insulator, the electrons may experience a small displacement within their respective atoms, but they generally do not move from one atom to another or flow through the material like they would in a conductor. As a result, insulators prevent the flow of electric current and are used to isolate or protect conductive elements from accidental contact.
So, the correct answer is D. Electrons are tightly bound to the nuclei.

Question 8: Unspooling Thread (100 points) A 110 g spool of thread with a 4.2 cm radius is held up by a peg through its center and allowed to freely rotate. Assume the thread is ideal (i.e., it does not stretch or slip, and its mass is negligibly small). A 160 g needle is tied to the loose end of the thread. The needle is dropped, and it accelerates to the floor as the thread unwinds. Find the tension in the thread and the magnitude of the acceleration of the needle as it falls.
Answer:
a = 7.29 m / s², T = 0.40 N
Explanation:
To solve this exercise we must apply Newton's second law to each body
The needle
W -T = m a
mg - T = ma
The spool, which we will approach by a cylinder
Σ τ = I α
T R = I α
the moment of inertia of a cylinder with an axis through its center is
I = ½ M R²
angular and linear variables are related
a = α R
α = a / R
we substitute
T R = (½ M R²) a / R
T = ½ M a
we write our system of equations together
mg - T = m a
T = ½ M a
we solve
m g = (m + ½ M) a
a = [tex]\frac{m}{m + \frac{1}{2} M} \ g[/tex]
let's calculate
a = [tex]\frac{0.160}{0.160 + \frac{1}{2} 0.110} \ 9.8[/tex]

A torque of 36.5 N · m is applied to an initially motionless wheel which rotates around a fixed axis. This torque is the result of a directed force combined with a friction force. As a result of the applied torque the angular speed of the wheel increases from 0 to 10.3 rad/s. After 6.10 s the directed force is removed, and the wheel comes to rest 60.6 s later.
(a) What is the wheel's moment of inertia (in kg m2)? kg m
(b) What is the magnitude of the torque caused by friction (in N m)? N m
(c) From the time the directed force is initially applied, how many revolutions does the wheel go through?

Answer:
[tex]21.6\ \text{kg m}^2[/tex]
[tex]3.672\ \text{Nm}[/tex]
[tex]54.66\ \text{revolutions}[/tex]
Explanation:
[tex]\tau[/tex] = Torque = 36.5 Nm
[tex]\omega_i[/tex] = Initial angular velocity = 0
[tex]\omega_f[/tex] = Final angular velocity = 10.3 rad/s
t = Time = 6.1 s
I = Moment of inertia
From the kinematic equations of linear motion we have
[tex]\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha_1 t\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{10.3-0}{6.1}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=1.69\ \text{rad/s}^2[/tex]
Torque is given by
[tex]\tau=I\alpha_1\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{\tau}{\alpha_1}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{36.5}{1.69}\\\Rightarrow I=21.6\ \text{kg m}^2[/tex]
The wheel's moment of inertia is [tex]21.6\ \text{kg m}^2[/tex]
t = 60.6 s
[tex]\omega_i[/tex] = 10.3 rad/s
[tex]\omega_f[/tex] = 0
[tex]\alpha_2=\dfrac{0-10.3}{60.6}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=-0.17\ \text{rad/s}^2[/tex]
Frictional torque is given by
[tex]\tau_f=I\alpha_2\\\Rightarrow \tau_f=21.6\times -0.17\\\Rightarrow \tau=-3.672\ \text{Nm}[/tex]
The magnitude of the torque caused by friction is [tex]3.672\ \text{Nm}[/tex]
Speeding up

Slowing down
[tex]\theta_2=10.3\times 60.6+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (-0.17)\times 60.6^2\\\Rightarrow \theta_2=312.03\ \text{rad}[/tex]
Total number of revolutions

Given that,
The speed of duck, v = 9.1 m/s
The magnitude of momentum, p = 12 kg-m/s
We need to find the mass of the duck. We know that the momentum of an object is given by :
p = mv
Where
m is the mass of the duck

When equal currents are present in the two solenoids, the ratio of the magnitude of the magnetic field BIalong the axis of solenoid I to the magnitude of the magnetic field BIIalong the axis of solenoid II, BI/BII, is
Answer:
BI/BII = 1
Explanation:
The magnetic field due to a solenoid is given by the following formula:
[tex]B = \mu nI\\[/tex]
where,
B = Magnetic Field due to solenoid
μ = permeability of free space
n = No. of turns per unit length
I = current passing through the solenoid
Now for the first solenoid:
[tex]B_1 = \mu n_1I_1 \\[/tex]
For the second solenoid:
[tex]B_2 = \mu n_2I_2\\[/tex]
Dividing both equations:
[tex]\frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{\mu n_1I_1}{\mu n_2I_2}\\[/tex]
here, no. of turns and the current passing through each solenoid is same:
n₁ = n₂ and I₁ = I₂
Therefore,
[tex]\frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{\mu nI}{\mu nI}\\[/tex]
BI/BII = 1

It is placed at rest on its side at the top of a 3.00 m long incline that is at 25.0 degrees to the horizontal, and it is then released to roll straight down. Assuming mechanical energy conservation, calculate the moment of inertia of the can if it takes 1.50 s to reach the bottom of the incline. Which pieces of data, if any, are unnecessary for calculating the solution
Answer:
I = 1.093 x 10⁻⁴ kg.m²
Here, all the other data, namely, the height of the can, length of the inclined plane, angle of inclination, time to reach the bottom, are unnecessary.
Explanation:
The can which is filled with the soup can be modelled as a solid cylinder. The moment of inertia of this solid cylinder about its axis of rotation can be given by the following formula:
[tex]I = \frac{1}{2}mr^2[/tex]
where,
I = moment of inertia of can = ?
m = mass of can with soup = 215 g = 0.215 kg
r = radius of can = diameter/2 = 6.38 cm/2 = 3.19 cm = 0.0319 m
Therefore,
[tex]I = \frac{1}{2}(0.215\ kg)(0.0319\ m)^2 \\[/tex]
I = 1.093 x 10⁻⁴ kg.m²
Here, all the other data, namely, the height of the can, length of the inclined plane, angle of inclination, time to reach the bottom, are unnecessary.
An aircraft has to fly between two cities, one of which is 600.0 km north of the other. The pilot starts from the southern city and encounters a steady 100.0 km/h wind that blows from the northeast. The plane has a cruising speed of 236.0 km/h in still air. In what direction (relative to east) must the pilot head her plane
Answer:
72.57° North of east
Explanation:
From the given information:
We can compute the velocity plane that is related to the ground in air in the North direction as;
[tex]v^{\to} _{PG} = v \\ \\ v^{\to} _{PG,x} = 0 \\ \\ v^{\to} _{PG,y} = v[/tex]
However, the velocity of the wind-related to the ground from the NorthEast direction is;
[tex]v^{\to}_{wG}=100 \ km/h \\ \\ \text{from North East} \\ \\ v_{wG,x} = (-100 \ km/h ) cos 45 = -70.7 km/h \\ \\ v_{wG,y} = (-100 \ km/h ) sin 45 = -70.7 km/h[/tex]
Now,
Since the plane is moving with a 236 km/h speed in the Northeast direction;
Then;
[tex]v^{\to} _{pw} = 236 \ km/h \\ \\ v^{\to} _{pw.x} = (236 m/s) cos \theta \\ \\ v^{\to} _{pw,y} = (236\ m/s) sin \theta \\ \\ v_{pG,x} = v_{pw,x} + v_{w G,x} \\ \\ \implies 0 = (236 \ km/h) sin \theta -( 70.7 \ km/h) \\ \\ \implies cos \theta = \dfrac{70.7 \ km/h}{236 \ km/h} \\ \\ \theta = cos^{-1} (0.2996) \\ \\ \mathbf{\theta = 72.57}[/tex]

What is the difference between a positively and negatively charged object?
Answer:
Positively charged objects have electrons; they simply possess more protons than electrons. Negatively charged objects have protons; it's just their number of electrons is greater than their number of protons.
The difference between a positively charged object and a negatively charged object is the number of protons and electrons. The imbalance in charge results into formation of charged objects.
What are Charged objects?
Charged objects have an imbalance of charge that is either more negative electrons than the positive protons or more positive protons than the negative electrons in the object. The neutral objects are those species which have a balance of charge with equal number of protons and electrons.
A positively charged object is formed when an atom has more protons than electrons. And, a negatively charged object is formed when an atom has more electrons than protons. As, electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge.

a) the energy of a photo is given by the planck relation
E = h f
the speed of light is
c = λ f
f = c /λ
we substitute
E = hc /λ
let's calculate the energy for the two photons
λ = 640 nm = 640 10⁻⁰ m
E₁ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/640 10⁻⁹
E₁ = 3.1 10⁻¹⁹ J
λ = 520 nm = 520 10⁻⁹ m
E₂ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/520 10⁻⁹
E₂ = 3.825 10⁻¹⁹ J
therefore the excitation energy is E₂ λ = 520 nm
the emission energy is E₁, λ= 640 nm
b) For this part let's use a direct proportion rule (rule of three). If a photon (lam = 520 nm) has an energy of 3.825 10⁻¹⁹ J, how many photons have an energy of E = 1 10-3 J. Remember that the power is the energy per unit of time
#_photons = 1 10⁻³ J (1 photon / 3.825 10⁻¹⁹ J)
#_photons = 2.6 10¹⁸ photons
c) the excitation wavelength λ = 520 nm is green, therefore the filter is also green
the emission wavelength is lam = 640 nm is orange

A motion sensor emits sound, and
detects an echo 0.0115 s after. A
short time later, it again emits a
sound, and hears an echo after
0.0183 s. How far has the
reflecting object moved?

(Speed of sound = 343 m/s)
(Unit = m)
Answer:
1.17m
Explanation:
The formula to find distance is d=vt/2
This problem is asking for how far the reflecting object has moved so you need to find the distance from the motion sensor at both times.
(343)(0.115) / (2) = 1.97
(343)(0.0183) /(2) =3.14
After that, all you have to do is find the difference so
3.14 - 1.97
= 1.17
