4 0

Answer:

The frequency of the signal is 2 GHz

Explanation:

Given;

period of the clock signal, T = 500 ps = 500 x 10⁻¹² s

the frequency of the signal is given by;

$F= \frac{1}{T}\\\\F = \frac{1}{500*10^{-12}}\\\\F = 2*10^{9} \ Hz$

F = 2 GHz

Therefore, the frequency of the signal is 2 x 10⁹ Hz or 2 GHz

Answer:

The time constant and its uncertainty is t ± Δt = 0.526 ± 0.057 s

Explanation:

If we make a comparison we have to:

y = A*(1-e^-(C*x)) + B

If the time remains constant we have to:

t = R*C = 1/C

In this way we calculate the time constant and its uncertainty. this will be equal to:

t ± Δt = (1/1.901) ± (0.2051/1.901)*(1/1.901) = 0.526 ± 0.057 s

Sunlight strikes a piece of crown glass at an angle of incidence of 38.0°. Calculate the difference in the angle of refraction b

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Difference in the angle of refraction = 0.3°

41.04° is the minimum angle of incidence.

Explanation:

Angle of incidence = 38.0°

For yellow light :

Using Snell's law as:

$\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin\theta_1}=\frac {n_1}{n_2}$

Where,

Θ₁ is the angle of incidence

Θ₂ is the angle of refraction

n₁ is the refractive index for yellow light which is 1.523

n₂ is the refractive index of air which is 1

So,

$\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin{38.0}^0}=\frac {1.523}{1}$

${sin\theta_2}=0.9377$

Angle of refraction for yellow light = sin⁻¹ 0.9377 = 69.67°.

For green light :

Using Snell's law as:

$\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin\theta_1}=\frac {n_1}{n_2}$

Where,

Θ₁ is the angle of incidence

Θ₂ is the angle of refraction

n₁ is the refractive index for green light which is 1.526

n₂ is the refractive index of air which is 1

So,

$\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin{38.0}^0}=\frac {1.526}{1}$

${sin\theta_2}=0.9395$

Angle of refraction for green light = sin⁻¹ 0.9395 = 69.97°.

The difference in the angle of refraction = 69.97° - 69.67° = 0.3°

Calculation of the critical angle for the yellow light for the total internal reflection to occur :

The formula for the critical angle is:

${sin\theta_{critical}}=\frac {n_r}{n_i}$

Where,

${\theta_{critical}}$ is the critical angle

$n_r$ is the refractive index of the refractive medium.

$n_i$ is the refractive index of the incident medium.

n₁ is the refractive index for yellow light which is 1.523 (incident medium)

n₂ is the refractive index of air which is 1 (refractive medium)

Applying in the formula as:

${sin\theta_{critical}}=\frac {1}{1.523}$

The critical angle is = sin⁻¹ 0.6566 = 41.04°

If the average speed of an orbiting space shuttle is 27 800 km/h, determine the time required for it to circle Earth. Assume tha

balu736 [363]

Answer:

t = 1.51 hours

Explanation:

given,

Speed of space shuttle. v = 27800 Km/h

Radius of earth, R = 6380 Km

height of shuttle above earth, h = 320 Km

Total radius of the shuttle orbit

r' = R + h

r' = 6380 + 320

r' = 6700 Km

distance, d = 2 π r

d = 2 π x 6700

$time = \dfrac{distance}{speed}$

$time = \dfrac{2\pi\times 6700}{27800}$

t = 1.51 hours

Time require by the shuttle to circle the earth is equal to 1.51 hr.

At what angle should the axes of two Polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Ok, the question is incomplete buy ill try to answer this in a general way.

Suppose that you have no-polarized light.

When that light hits one polaroid, the light becomes polarized along some line, and has an intensity I0.

Now, when polarized light hits a polaroid which axis is at an angle θ with respect to the polarization of the light, the intensity of the resulting beam is given by the Malus's law:

I(θ) = I0*cos^2(θ)

For example, if the axis of the polaroid is exactly the same as the one of the polarized light, then we have θ = 0°

and:

I(0°) = I0*cos^2(0°) = I0

So the intensity does not change.

Now, knowing the initial intensity, you can find the angle needed to get a given intensity.

For example, if the question was:

"At what angle should the axes of two Polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to A"

We should solve:

I(θ) = A = I0*cos^2(θ)

(A/i0) = cos^2(θ)

√(A/I0) = cos(θ)

Acos(√(A/I0)) = θ
