2. The glass core of an optical fiber has an index of refraction 1.60. The index of refraction of the cladding is 1.48. What is the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

We know that the maximum angle that a light ray can wake with the wall of the core is equipment to the minimum angle with the normal of the core that will give rise in total internal reflection. so using Snell's law the angle is subtracted from 90° to get the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber.

So using

n1sinစ1. = n2sinစ2

1.6sin(x1) = 1.48sin(90),

But sin(90)=1

1.6sin(စ1) = 1.48,

sin(စ1) = 1.48/1.6

စ = 68°

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

i = 67.66⁰

Explanation:

Using the Snell's law formula to solve this question which states that the ratio of the sine of angle of incidence to the sine of angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media. This constant is known as the refractive index for the given pair of media. Mathematically,

n = sin(i)/sin(r) where;

i is the angle of incidence

r is the angle of refraction.

n is the refractive index.

Given the refractive index of the optical fibre n₁ = 1.60 and that of cladding n₂ = 1.48

n₂/n₁ = sin(i)/sin(r)

The light ray can make with the wall of the core when its angle of refraction is 90⁰. The angle of incidence at this maximum point is known as the critical angle.

On substitution:

1.48/1.60 = sin(i)/sin90

1.48/1.60  = sin(i)/1

sin(i) = 1.48/1.60

sin(i) = 0.925

i = sin⁻¹0.925

i = 67.66⁰

Hence the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber is 67.66⁰.

The same force is applied to two hoops. The hoops have the same mass, but the larger hoop has twice the radius. How are the angular accelerations of the hoops related

Answers

Answer:

The angular accelerations of the hoops are related by the following equation [tex]\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex].

Explanation:

Net force on the hoop is given by;

[tex]F_{net} = ma[/tex]

where;

a is linear acceleration

m is the mass

Net torque on the hoop is given by;

[tex]\tau_{net} =I\alpha[/tex]

where;

I is moment of inertia

α is the angular acceleration

But, τ = Fr

[tex]Fr = I \alpha\\\\\alpha = \frac{Fr}{I} \\\\\alpha = \frac{Fr}{mr^2} \\\\\alpha = \frac{F}{mr} \\\\\alpha = \frac{1}{r} (\frac{F}{m} )\\\\(since\ the \ force\ and \ mass \ are \ the \ same, \frac{F}{m} = constant=k)\\\\ \alpha = \frac{k}{r}\\\\k = \alpha r[/tex]

[tex]\alpha _1 r_1= \alpha_2 r_2[/tex]

let the angular acceleration of the smaller hoop = α₁

let the radius of the smaller hoop = r₁

then, the radius of the larger loop, r₂ = 2r₁

let the angular acceleration of the larger hoop = α₂

[tex]\alpha _1 r_1= \alpha_2 r_2\\\\\alpha_2= \frac{ \alpha _1 r_1}{r_2} \\\\\alpha_2=\frac{\alpha _1 r_1}{2r_1} \\\\\alpha_2= \frac{\alpha _1}{2} \\\\\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex]

Therefore, the angular accelerations of the hoops are related by the following equation [tex]\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex]

Two narrow slits are illuminated by a laser with a wavelength of 593 nm. The interference pattern on a screen located x = 4.80 m away shows that the fourth-order bright fringe is located y = 8.20 cm away from the central bright fringe. Calculate the distance between the two slits.

Answers

Answer:

The distance is  [tex]d = 1.39 *10^{-4} \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The wavelength is  [tex]\lambda = 593 \ nm = 593 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

    The distance of the screen is   x  =  4.80 m

    The  location of the fourth order bright fringe is  y  =  8.20 cm = 0.082 m

    The order of the fringe is  n  =  4

   

Generally the position of a fringe with respect to the central fringe is mathematically represented as

           [tex]y = \frac{ n * x * \lambda }{d}[/tex]

Where d is the distance between the slits, so making d the subject

          [tex]d = \frac{\lambda * x * n }{ y }[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]d = \frac{ 593 *10^{-9} * 4.80 * 4 }{ 0.082 }[/tex]

           [tex]d = 1.39 *10^{-4} \ m[/tex]

a. How much heat would be required to melt this iceberg (assumed to be at 0°C) into liquid water at 0°C?
b. The annual U.S. energy consumption is 1.2 x 10^20 J. If all the U.S. energy was used to melt the ice, how many days would it take to do so?

Answers

Answer:

a

  [tex]Q = 5.34 *10^{19} \ J[/tex]

b

   [tex]T = 0.445 * 365 = 162. 413 \ days[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  area of  Manhattan is  [tex]a_k = 87.46 *10^{6} \ m^2[/tex]

      The area of the ice is [tex]a_i = 4* 87.46 *10^{6 } = 3.498 *10^{8}\ m^2[/tex]

        The  thickness is  [tex]t = 500 \ m \\[/tex]

       

Generally the volume of the ice is mathematically represented is

         [tex]V = a_i * t[/tex]

substituting value

         [tex]V = 500 * 3.498*10^{8}[/tex]

         [tex]V = 1.75 *10^{11}\ m^3[/tex]

Generally the mass of the ice is

       [tex]m_i = \rho_i * V[/tex]

Here [tex]\rho_i[/tex] is the density of ice the value is  [tex]\rho _i = 916.7 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

=>   [tex]m_i = 916.7 * 1.75*10^{11}[/tex]

=>    [tex]m_i = 1.60 *10^{14} \ kg[/tex]

Generally the energy needed for the ice to melt is mathematically represented as

        [tex]Q = m _i * H_f[/tex]

Where [tex]H_f[/tex] is the latent heat of fusion of ice and the value is  [tex]H_f = 3.33*10^{5} \ J/kg[/tex]

=>    [tex]Q = 1.60 *10^{14} * 3.33*10^{5}[/tex]

=>    [tex]Q = 5.34 *10^{19} \ J[/tex]

Considering part b

  We are told that the annual energy consumption is  [tex]G = 1.2*10^{20 } \ J / year[/tex]

So  the time taken to melt the ice is

      [tex]T = \frac{ 5.34 *10^{19}}{ 1.2 *10^{20}}[/tex]

        [tex]T = 0.445 \ years[/tex]

converting to days

      [tex]T = 0.445 * 365 = 162. 413 \ days[/tex]

g One of the harmonics in an open-closed tube has frequency of 500 Hz. The next harmonic has a frequency of 700 Hz. Assume that the speed of sound in this problem is 340 m/s. a. What is the length of the tube

Answers

Answer:

The length of the tube is 85 cm

Explanation:

Given;

speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

first harmonic of open-closed tube is given by;

N----->A , L= λ/₄

λ₁ = 4L

v = Fλ

F = v / λ

F₁ = v/4L

Second harmonic of open-closed tube is given by;

L = N-----N + N-----A, L = (³/₄)λ

[tex]\lambda = \frac{4L}{3}\\\\ F= \frac{v}{\lambda}\\\\F_2 = \frac{3v}{4L}[/tex]

Third harmonic of open-closed tube is given by;

L = N------N + N-----N + N-----A, L = (⁵/₄)λ

[tex]\lambda = \frac{4L}{5}\\\\ F= \frac{v}{\lambda}\\\\F_3 = \frac{5v}{4L}[/tex]

The difference between second harmonic and first harmonic;

[tex]F_2 -F_1 = \frac{3v}{4L} - \frac{v}{4L}\\\\F_2 -F_1 = \frac{2v}{4L} \\\\F_2 -F_1 =\frac{v}{2L}[/tex]

The difference between third harmonic and second harmonic;

[tex]F_3 -F_2 = \frac{5v}{4L} - \frac{3v}{4L}\\\\F_3 -F_2 = \frac{2v}{4L} \\\\F_3 -F_2 =\frac{v}{2L}[/tex]

Thus, the difference between successive harmonic of open-closed tube is

v / 2L.

[tex]700H_z- 500H_z= \frac{v}{2L} \\\\200 = \frac{v}{2L}\\\\L = \frac{v}{2*200} \\\\L = \frac{340}{2*200}\\\\L = 0.85 \ m\\\\L = 85 \ cm[/tex]

Therefore, the length of the tube is 85 cm

A professor, with dumbbells in his hands and holding his arms out, is spinning on a turntable with an angular velocity. What happens after he pulls his arms inwards

Answers

Answer:

His angular velocity will increase.

Explanation:

According to the conservation of rotational momentum, the initial angular momentum of a system must be equal to the final angular momentum of the system.

The angular momentum of a system = [tex]I[/tex]'ω'

where

[tex]I[/tex]' is the initial rotational inertia

ω' is the initial angular velocity

the rotational inertia = [tex]mr'^{2}[/tex]

where m is the mass of the system

and r' is the initial radius of rotation

Note that the professor does not change his position about the axis of rotation, so we are working relative to the dumbbells.

we can see that with the mass of the dumbbells remaining constant, if we reduce the radius of rotation of the dumbbells to r, the rotational inertia will reduce to [tex]I[/tex].

From

[tex]I[/tex]'ω' = [tex]I[/tex]ω

since [tex]I[/tex] is now reduced, ω will be greater than ω'

therefore, the angular velocity increases.

1. If the slits are very narrow, what would be the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima?
2. What would be the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima in this case?
3. Let the slits have a width 0.310 mm . In terms of the intensity I0 at the center of the central maximum, what is the intensity at the angular position of θ1?
4. What is the intensity at the angular position of θ2?

Answers

Answer:

1) θ = 0.00118 rad, 2)  θ = 0.00236 rad , 3) I / I₀ = 0.1738, 4)  I / Io = 0.216

Explanation:

In the double-slit interference phenomenon it is explained for constructive interference by the equation

          d sin θ = m λ

1) the first order maximum occurs for m = 1

           sin θ = λ  / d

           θ = sin⁻¹ λ  / d

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

           λ  = 520 nm = 520 10⁻⁹  θ = 0.00118 radm

           d = 0.440 mm = 0.440 10⁻³ m ³

let's calculate

           θ = sin⁻¹ (520 10⁻⁹ / 0.44 10⁻³)

            θ = sin⁻¹ (1.18 10⁻³)

            θ = 0.00118 rad

2) the second order maximum occurs for m = 2

            θ = sin⁻¹ (m λ  / d)

            θ = sin⁻¹ (2 5¹20 10⁻⁹ / 0.44 10⁻³)

            θ = 0.00236 rad

3) To calculate the intensity of the interference spectrum, the diffraction phenomenon must be included, so the equation remains

          I = I₀ cos² (π d sin θ /λ ) sinc² (pi b sin θ /λ )

where the function sinc = sin x / x

and b is the width of the slits

we caption the values

             x = π 0.310 10⁻³ sin 0.00118 / 520 10⁻⁹)

             x = 2.21

            I / I₀ = cos² (π 0.44 10⁻³ sin 0.00118 / 520 10⁻⁹) (sin (2.21) /2.21)²

remember angles are in radians

            I / I₀ = cos² (3.0945) [0.363] 2

            I / I₀ = 0.9978 0.1318

            I / I₀ = 0.1738

4) the maximum second intensity is

            I / I₀ = cos² (π d sinθ / λ) sinc² (πb sin θ /λ)

            x =π 0.310 10⁻³ sin 0.00236 / 520 10⁻⁹)

            x = 4.41

            I / Io = cos² (π 0.44 10⁻³ sin 0.00236 / 520 10⁻⁹) (sin 4.41 / 4.41)²

            I / Io = cos² 6.273    0.216

            I / Io = 0.216

Here  [tex]n_a[/tex]  is the refractive index of  air the value is  [tex]n_a = 1[/tex]

So

        [tex]D' = 5.0 *10^{-3} * [\frac{1}{1.33} ][/tex]

        [tex]D' = 0.00376 \ m[/tex]

The apparent depth will be 0.00376 m.

?a wire is stretched 30% what is the percentage change in resistance ​

Answers

Answer:

The percentage change in resistance of the wire is 69%.

Explanation:

Resistance of a wire can be determined by,

R = (ρl) ÷ A

Where R is its resistance, l is the length of the wire, A its cross sectional area and ρ its resistivity.

When the wire is stretched, its length and area changes but its volume and resistivity remains constant.

[tex]l_{o}[/tex] = 1.3l, and [tex]A_{o}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{A}{1.3}[/tex]

So that;

[tex]R_{o}[/tex] = (ρ[tex]l_{o}[/tex]) ÷ [tex]A_{o}[/tex] = (ρ × 1.3l) ÷ ([tex]\frac{A}{1.3}[/tex])

    = (1.3lρ) ÷ ([tex]\frac{A}{1.3}[/tex])

    = [tex](1.3)^{2}[/tex] × [(ρl) ÷ A]

   = 1.69R               (∵ R = (ρl) ÷ A)

[tex]R_{o}[/tex] = 1.69R

Where [tex]R_{o}[/tex] is the new resistance, [tex]l_{o}[/tex] is the new length, and [tex]A_{o}[/tex] is the new area after stretching the wire.

The change in resistance of the wire = [tex]R_{o}[/tex] - R

                                      = 1.69R  - 1R

                                      = 0.69R

The percentage change in resistance = [tex]\frac{0.69R}{R}[/tex] × 100

                                                               = 0.69 × 100

                                                              = 69%

The percentage change in resistance of the wire is 69%.

Given: v = 4 m/s, d = 60 cm = 0.6 m

Substitute these values into equation 4

ω = 2(4)/0.6

ω = 13.33 rad/s

The four wheels of a car are connected to the car's body by spring assemblies that let the wheels move up and down over bumps and dips in the road. When a 68 kg (about 150 lb) person sits on the left front fender of a small car, this corner of the car dips by about 1.2 cm (about 1/2 in).

If we treat the spring assembly as a single spring, what is the approximate spring constant?

k= ____________

Answers

Answer:

The approximate  spring constant is  [tex]k = 55533.33 \ N/m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of the person is  [tex]m = 68 \ kg[/tex]

     The  dip of the car is  [tex]x = 1.2 \ cm = 0.012 \ m[/tex]

Generally according to hooks law  

        [tex]F = k * x[/tex]

here the force F is the weight of the person which is mathematically represented as

         [tex]F = m * g[/tex]

=>    [tex]m * g = k * x[/tex]

=>     [tex]k = \frac{m * g }{x }[/tex]

=>    [tex]k = \frac{68 * 9.8}{ 0.012}[/tex]

=>   [tex]k = 55533.33 \ N/m[/tex]

A 300 MWe (electrical power output) Power Plant having a thermal efficiency of 40% is cooled by sea water. Due to environmental regulations the seawater can only increase temperature by 5 C during the process. How much sea water (minimum) must be used in kg/s for cooling if the plant operates at it's rated capacity?

Answers

Answer:

m = 22,877 kg / s

Explanation:

Let's solve this exercise in parts, first look for the amount of heat generated by the plant and then the amount of water to dissipate this heat

The plant generates a power of 300 MW at a rate of 40%, let's use a direct ratio rule to find the heat. If the power is 400 MW it corresponds to 40%, what heat (Q) corresponds to the other 60%

           Q = 300 60% / 40%

           Q = 450 MW

having the amount of heat generated we can use the calorimeter equation,

           Q = m [tex]c_{e}[/tex] [tex](T_{f} - T_{o})[/tex]

            m = Q / c_{e} (T_{f} - T_{o})

let's use the maximum temperature change allowed

           (T_{f} - T_{o}) = 5

the specific heat of sea water is 3934 J / kg ºC, note that it is less than that of pure water, due to the salts dissolved in sea water

     

power and energy are related

              W = Q / t

               Q = W t

             

let's calculate

             m = 450 10⁶ / (3934 5)

             m = 22,877 kg / s

Why was Bohr's atomic model replaced by the
modern atomic model?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Bohr's atomic model was replaced by the  modern atomic model because of its limitations, which included :

(a) Only applicable for Hydrogen and like atoms ( He+1, Li+2 )

(b) Couldn't explain Zeeman Effect (splitting of spectral lines due external magnetic field ) and Stark Effect (splitting of spectral lines due to external electric field).

(c) Inconsistent with De-Broglie's Dual nature of matter and Heisenberg Uncertainty principal, etc.

A positive point charge q is placed at the center of an uncharged metal sphere insulated from the ground. The outside of the sphere is then grounded as shown. Then the ground wire is removed. A is the inner surface and B is the outer surface. Which statement is correct

Answers

Explanation:

the missing figure in the Question has been put in the attachment.

Then from the figure we can observe that

the center of the sphere is positive, therefore, negative charge will be  induced at A.

As B is grounded there will not be any charge on B

Hence the answer is A is negative and B is charge less.

a ball is kicked on level ground with a speed of 30 m/s at angle of 40 degrees above horizontal g Find the minimum velocity of the ball during its flight

Answers

Answer:

The minimum velocity of the ball during its flight is 22.98 m/s.

Explanation:

The velocity of the ball v = 30 m/s

The angle it makes with the horizontal ∅ = 40°

The minimum velocity of the ball during flight will be the horizontal axis component of the velocity, as acceleration is zero on this axis.

[tex]V_{x}[/tex] = v cos ∅

[tex]V_{x}[/tex]  = 30 cos 40°

[tex]V_{x}[/tex] = 30 x 0.766 = 22.98 m/s

There is a river in front of you that flows due South at 3.0m/s. You launch a toy boat across the river with the front of the boat pointed due East. When you tested the boat on a still pond, the boat moved at 4.0m/s. Now as it moves to the opposite bank, it travels at some speed relative to you, sitting in your chair. What is this speed

Answers

Answer:

5.0 m/s

Explanation:

If the river moves towards the south at 3m/s and the both moves towards the east at 4.0m/s, the speed of the boat relative to me will be the resulting displacement of both velocities of the river and that of the boat. This can be gotten using pythagoras theorem.

Let Vr be the relative speed. According to the theorem;

[tex]V_r^2 = V_s^2 + V_e^2\\\\V_r^2 = 3.0^2 + 4.0^2\\\\V_r^2 = 9+16\\\\V_r^2 = \sqrt{25}\\ \\V_r = 5.0m/s[/tex]

Hence this relative speed is 5.0 m/s

Bob and Lily are riding on a merry-go-round. Bob rides on a horse near the outer edge of the circular platform, and Lily rides on a horse near the center of the circular platform. When the merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed, Bob's angular speed is:_____.
a. the same as Lily's.
b. larger than Lily's.
c. exactly half as much as Lily's.
d. exactly twice as much as Lily's.
e. smaller than Lily's.

Answers

Answer: the same as Lily's

Explanation:

Angular velocity has to do with the speed at which an object will be able to rotate. We are informed that Bob and Lily are riding on a merry-go-round.

Since we are further told that Bob rides on a horse near the outer edge of the circular platform, and Lily rides on a horse near the center of the circular platform and that he merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed.

Based on the above analysis, Bob's angular speed will be thesame as that of Lily.
