Light is an oscillating magnetic field alone. an oscillating electric field alone. electric and magnetic fields that oscillate p

arallel to each other. electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicularly to each other. electric and magnetic fields that oscillate in a random direction relative to each other. Which of the statements concerning light are true? The speed of light is the same no matter what material it is traveling through. Its propagation direction is perpendicular to both the electric field and the magnetic field. Its propagation direction is parallel to both the electric field and the magnetic field. The speed of light in matter is less than the speed of light in a vacuum. It moves at a constant speed through a vacuum. The speed of light in matter is greater than the speed of light in a vacuum.

Explanation:

  • As light is an electromagnetic wave that causes sensation of sight.  
  • Every electromagnetic wave has electrical and magnetic components in it which are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave.  
  • The electrical and magnetic components are mutually perpendicular to each other in an electromagnetic wave.
  • The speed of light in vacuum is c=3\times 10^{8}\ m.s^{-1}, which decreases when it passes through a matter (precisely a transparent medium) which allows the passage of light through it. When the light passes through some transparent matter then its speed decreases as compared to the speed of light in vacuum.

Maximum voltage produced in an AC generator completing 60 cycles in 30 sec is 250V. (a) What is period of armature? (b) How many
Vlada [557]

Answer:

a. 2 Hz b. 0.5 cycles c . 0 V

Explanation:

a. What is period of armature?

Since it takes the armature 30 seconds to complete 60 cycles, and frequency f = number of cycles/ time = 60 cycles/ 30 s = 2 cycles/ s = 2 Hz

b. How many cycles are completed in T/2 sec?

The period, T = 1/f = 1/2 Hz = 0.5 s.

So, it takes 0.5 s to complete 1 cycles. At t = T/2 = 0.5/2 = 0.25 s,

Since it takes 0.5 s to complete 1 cycle, then the number of cycles it completes in 0.25 s is 0.25/0.5 = 0.5 cycles.

c. What is the maximum emf produced when the armature completes 180° rotation?

Since the emf E = E₀sinθ and when θ = 180°, sinθ = sin180° = 0

E = E₀ × 0 = 0

E = 0

So, at 180° rotation, the maximum emf produced is 0 V.

7. A mother pushes her 9.5 kg baby in her 5kg baby carriage over the grass with a force of 110N @ an angle
jasenka [17]

Weight of the carriage =(m+M)g =142.1\ N

Normal force =Fsin(\theta) + W = 197.1\ N

Frictional force =\mu N=27.59\ N

Acceleration =4.66\ m\ s^{-2}

Explanation:

We have to look into the FBD of the carriage.

Horizontal forces and Vertical forces separately.

To calculate Weight we know that both the mass of the baby and the carriage will be added.

  • So Weight(W) =(m+M)\times g =(9.5+5)\ kg \times 9.8 =142.1\ Newton\ (N)

To calculate normal force we have to look upon the vertical component of forces, as Normal force is acting vertically.We have weight which is a downward force along with F_x, force of 110\ N acting vertically downward.Both are downward and Normal is upward so Normal force =Summation\ of\ both\ forces

  • Normal force (N) = Fsin(\theta)+W=110sin(30) + 142.1 =197.1\ N
  • Frictional force (f) =\mu N=0.14\times 197.1 =27.59\ N

To calculate acceleration we will use Newtons second law.

That is Force is product of mass and acceleration.

We can see in the diagram that F_y=Horizontal and F_x=Vertical component of forces.

So Fnet = Fy(Horizontal) - f(friction) = m\times a

  • Acceleration (a) =\frac{Fcos(\theta)-\mu N}{mass(m)} =\frac{(95.26-27.59)}{14.5}= 4.66\ m\ s{^2 }

So we have the weight of the carriage, normal force,frictional force and acceleration.

A person in a boat sees a fish in the water (n = 1.33, the light rays making an angle of 40? relative to the water's surface. wh
jek_recluse [69]
We know that the measure of an incident ray is:  α 1 = 40°.
The index of refraction:
- for the air : n 1 = 1.00,
- for the water: n 2 = 1.33
Snell`s Law of Refraction :
n 1 · sin α 1 = n 2 · sin α 2
sin α 2 = n 1 · sin α 1 / n 2 =
= 1.00 · sin 40° / 1.33 = 0.64278 / 1.33 = 0.4833
α 2 = sin ^(-1) 0.4833
α 2 = 28.9 °
Answer: The angle relative to the water`s surface of the rays when beneath the surface is 28.9°.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

X and Z

Explanation:
