The critical angle is given by the formula:

Thetac = sin-1(n2/n1)

Assuming a diamond-air boundary, this gives the critical angle as:

Thetac = sin-1(1.00/2.42) = 24.4 degrees.

When two objects that are touching reach the same temperature what has occured?

The objects have reached thermal equilibrium, meaning they have equalized their temperatures by transferring heat until they are the same.


What is the ratio of change in position to the time interval during which the change is occured?

The ratio of change in position to the time interval is known as velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that describes how fast an object's position changes and in what direction. It is calculated by dividing the change in position by the time interval.


What is displacement in motion?

Displacement in motion refers to the change in position of an object from its initial position to its final position. It is a vector quantity that indicates the straight-line distance and direction between the starting and ending points of an object's motion.


What happens to the particles in a solid when it is heated but not melted or burned?

When a solid is heated but not melted or burned, the particles within the solid start vibrating more rapidly due to the increase in temperature. This increased vibration increases the kinetic energy of the particles, causing them to move around more within their fixed positions in the solid's structure.


How do you know resonance has occured between the fork and he string?

Resonance typically occurs when the natural frequency of the fork matches the natural frequency of the string. You can observe resonance happening if there is a significant increase in the amplitude of vibrations of the string when the fork is placed close to it. This increase in vibration is a result of energy being efficiently transferred from the vibrating fork to the string, indicating resonance.

Why does glass break into many small pieces?

Glass breaks into small pieces due to its internal stress. When a force is applied to glass, it overcomes the tensile strength of the material, causing it to break. The internal stress causes the glass to shatter into small, uniform pieces to reduce the potential for injury.
