When a flat slab of transparent material is placed under water, the critical angle for light traveling from the slab into water is found to be 60°. what will the critical angle be if the slab is surrounded by air? take the index of refraction for water to be 1.33. d) 45.6 c) 44.2 e) 47.3 a) 40.6 b) 42.5

During physical science, ms. greene challenged her students to produce an energy transformation. james and jill wrapped a 4-inch nail with a coil of fifty turns of wire. they connected one end of the coil to one terminal of a knife switch. they connected the other terminal of the knife switch to the battery. finally, they connected the end of the coil to the other terminal of the battery. james held the tip of a 1-inch nail near the flat end of the 4-inch nail. jill closed the knife switch quickly and then opened it. the 1-inch nail was pulled toward the 4-inch nail. what is the best explanation of why the nail moved? a) electrical energy was converted to mechanical energy in the 1-inch nail. b) the 4-inch nail became an electromagnet and the magnetic force attracted the 1-inch nail. c) the electric current in the 4-inch nail was converted to mechanical energy in the 1-inch nail. d) the 4-inch nail had a positive charge and the 1-inch nail had a negative charge. opposites attracted.

In a system, when potential energy decreases, then entropy also decreases. true false

The discovery of the electron as a subatomic particle was a result of
