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

Answer:

Explanation: The chemical action that occurs in the cell while the current is flowing causes hydrogen bubbles to form on the surface of the anode. This action is called POLARIZATION. Some hydrogen bubbles rise to the surface of the electrolyte and escape into the air, some remain on the surface of the anode. If enough bubbles remain around the anode, the bubbles form a barrier that increases internal resistance. When the internal resistance of the cell increases, the output current is decreased and the voltage of the cell also decreases.

   A cell that is heavily polarized has no useful output. There are several methods to prevent polarization or to depolarize the cell.

   One method uses a vent on the cell to permit the hydrogen to escape into the air. A disadvantage of this method is that hydrogen is not available to reform into the electrolyte during recharging. This problem is solved by adding water to the electrolyte, such as in an automobile battery. A second method is to use material that is rich in oxygen, such as manganese dioxide, which supplies free oxygen to combine with the hydrogen and form water.

   A third method is to use a material that will absorb the hydrogen, such as calcium. The calcium releases hydrogen during the charging process. All three methods remove enough hydrogen so that the cell is practically free from polarization.

LOCAL ACTION

   When the external circuit is removed, the current ceases to flow, and, theoretically, all chemical action within the cell stops. However, commercial zinc contains many impurities, such as iron, carbon, lead, and arsenic. These impurities form many small electrical cells within the zinc electrode in which current flows between the zinc and its impurities. Thus, the chemical action continues even though the cell itself is not connected to a load.

   Local action may be prevented by using pure zinc (which is not practical), by coating the zinc with mercury, or by adding a small percentage of mercury to the zinc during the manufacturing process. The treatment of the zinc with mercury is called amalgamating (mixing) the zinc. Since mercury is many times heavier than an equal volume of water, small particles of impurities weighing less than mercury will float to the surface of the mercury. The removal of these impurities from the zinc prevents local action. The mercury is not readily acted upon by the acid. When the cell is delivering current to a load, the mercury continues to act on the impurities in the zinc. This causes the impurities to leave the surface of the zinc electrode and float to the surface of the mercury. This process greatly increases the storage life of the cell.

  [tex]W = 242.5 \ J[/tex]

1b

    [tex]W = 240 \ J[/tex]

Explanation:

Considering question a

From the question we are told that

       The mass of the toy baby stroller is  [tex]m = 5.0 \ kg[/tex]

        The distance covered is    [tex]d = 7.0\ m[/tex]

          The force the girl applies on the handle  is  [tex]F = 40 \ N[/tex]

          The angle at which this force is applied is  [tex]\theta = 30^o[/tex]

Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

          [tex]W = F_x * d[/tex]

Here  [tex]F_x[/tex] is the force along the horizontal axis , this is mathematically represented as

           [tex]F_x = F cos (\theta )[/tex]

=>         [tex]F_x = 40 * cos(30 )[/tex]

Answer:

The cantaloupe has a speed of 117.6 m/s

Explanation:

Free Fall Motion

It occurs when an object falls under the sole influence of gravity. Any object that is being acted upon solely by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. Free-falling objects do not face air resistance.

If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the acceleration of gravity, which value is [tex]g = 9.8 m/s^2[/tex].

The final velocity of a free-falling object after a time t is given by:

vf=g.t

The cantaloupe has been dropped from rest. We are required to find the speed after t=12 seconds.

Calculate the final speed:

vf=9.8 * 12 = 117.6 m/s

The cantaloupe has a speed of 117.6 m/s

Answer:

The fraction of the object that is below the surface of the water is ¹⁷/₂₀

Explanation:

Given;

specific gravity of the object, γ = 0.850

Specific gravity is given as;

[tex]specific \ gravity = \frac{density \ of the \ object}{density \ of \ water}\\\\0.85= \frac{density \ of the \ object}{1000 \ kg/m^3} \\\\density \ of the \ object = 850 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

Fraction of the object's weight below the surface of water is calculated as;

[tex]= \frac{850}{1000} \ \times\ 100\%\\\\= 85 \% \\\\= \frac{17}{20}[/tex]

Therefore, the fraction of the object that is below the surface of the water is ¹⁷/₂₀

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

Answer:

A stunt person jumps from the roof of a tall building, but no injury occurs because the person lands on a large, air-filled bag. Which one of the following best describes why no injury occurs?

The bag increases the amount of time during which the momentum is changing and reduces the average force on the person.

ANSWER: A

Answer:

A. The bag increases the amount of time during which the momentum is changing and reduces the average force on the person.

During stunts, people usually put an-air filled bag on the ground for safe landing and to prevent injuries.

Momentum is calculated by m* v where m is for mass and v is for velocity.

Force is directly proportional to momentum

F∝M

The bag in this scenario helps to increases the amount of time the force acts on the person. This implication means that there is a reduction in the change of momentum. Since Force and momentum have a directly proportional relationship then the Force taken to hit the floor is greatly reduced.

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

The earth has a magnetic field. It is much like a bar magnet. Imagine a gigantic bar magnet inside the Earth. But there is no giant magnet inside it.

To have a pretty good idea what earth's magnetic field is shaped like we imagine a bar magnet inside the earth.

The magnetic field is made by the motion of molten iron in earth's outer core.  The swirling motion of molten iron changes all the time. Therefore, the magnetic fields will also get change. Then, the magnet poles also move.

The North pole and the south pole are two geographic poles of earth.  These poles are the places on the earth's surface that earth's imaginary spin axis passes through.

There are two magnetic poles of the earth: North magnetic pole and South magnetic pole.

Earth's magnetic field is tilted a little bit. If we imagine that earth's magnetic field is made by a giant bar magnet. Then, the bar magnet would make an with earth's spin axis.

The geographic poles and the magnetic poles are not in the same place.

If we are standing at one magnetic poles then the magnetic field lines would be straight up and down.

Earth's magnetic field is a complex and dynamic phenomenon that is generated by the motion of molten iron in its outer core. The magnetic field extends far beyond the planet and is responsible for protecting Earth from harmful solar radiation and cosmic rays.

Earth's magnetic field is roughly dipolar in shape, meaning it has two main magnetic poles - north and south - and the field lines emerge from the north and re-enter at the south pole. The magnetic field has a strength of about 25-65 microteslas (μT) at the Earth's surface, and it extends for several tens of thousands of kilometers into space.

2. Where are Earth's magnetic poles?

Earth's magnetic poles are not fixed and are constantly moving due to the complex and dynamic nature of the planet's magnetic field. Currently, the north magnetic pole is located in the Arctic Ocean, close to Canada's Ellesmere Island, and the south magnetic pole is located in the Antarctic Ocean, near the coast of Antarctica.

3. Where is the magnet that causes Earth's magnetic field located? What is this magnet made of?

The magnet that causes Earth's magnetic field is not a physical magnet but rather a result of the motion of molten iron in the Earth's outer core. The outer core is a layer of liquid iron and nickel that surrounds the solid inner core. The motion of this molten iron generates electrical currents, which in turn create a magnetic field.

4. Does Earth's magnetic field move?

Yes, Earth's magnetic field is not static and is constantly changing due to the complex nature of the planet's interior. The magnetic poles are constantly moving and the strength of the magnetic field can vary over time. The magnetic field can also be influenced by external factors such as solar storms and changes in the solar wind. Scientists continue to study Earth's magnetic field to better understand its behavior and how it affects the planet.

Therefore, The magnetic field of the Earth is a complex and dynamic phenomenon caused by the movement of molten iron in its outer core. The magnetic field extends far beyond the planet and is in charge of shielding the planet from harmful solar radiation and cosmic rays.

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of static friction required, µ = 0.10

Note. The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:

While hauling a log in the back of a flatbed truck, a driver is pulled over by the state police. Although the log cannot roll sideways, the police claim that the log could have slid out the back of the truck when accelerating from rest. The driver claims that the truck could not possibly accelerate at the level needed to achieve such an effect. Regardless, the police write a ticket anyway and now the driver court date is approaching.

The log has a mass of m = 929 kg; the truck has a mass of M = 8850 kg. According to the truck manufacturer, the truck can accelerate from 0 to 55 mph in 23.0 seconds, but this does not account for the additional mass of the log. Calculate the minimum coefficient of static friction μs needed to keep the log in the back of the truck.

Explanation:

First, velocity in mph is converted to m/s

1 mph = 0.447 m/s

55 mph ≈ 24.6 m/s

The acceleration of the empty truck is a = v/t = 24.6 / 23 = 1.07 m/s²

Force that can be generated by the truck, F = ma

F = 8850kg * 1.07 m/s² = 9469.5 N

However, with the added mass of the log on it, the acceleration of the truck will become;

a = F / m = 9469.5 N / (8550+929)kg = 0.97 m/s²

Frictional force between the log and the truck = 0.97 m/s² * 929 kg = 901.13 N

Normal reaction on the truck due to the weight of the log, R = mg

R = 929 kg * 9.8m/s² = 9104.2 N

Coefficient of static friction, µ = F/R

µ = 901.13/9104.2

µ = 0.098 ≈ 0.10

Therefore, the minimum static friction required is µ = 0.10
