Explain why there is total internal reflection in an optical fibres

How does the kinetic energy of a charge change as the charge moves under the effect of an electric field from higher potential to lower potential? a. the kinetic energy increases. b.the kinetic energy decreases. c.the kinetic energy remains the same. d.the kinetic energy is always zero.

Astudent throws a water balloon with speed v0 from a height h = 1.76 m at an angle θ = 21° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. the target is located a horizontal distance d = 9.5 m from the student’s feet. assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. use a cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. (a) what is the position vector, rtarge t, that originates from the balloon's original position and terminates at the target? put this in terms of h and d, and represent it as a vector using i and j. (b) in terms of the variables in the problem, determine the time, t, after the launch it takes the balloon to reach the target. your answer should not include h. (c) create an expression for the balloon's vertical position as a function of time, y(t), in terms of t, vo, g, and θ. (d) determine the magnitude of the balloon's initial velocity, v0, in meters per second, by eliminating t from the previous two expressions.

An astronaut on the moon throws a baseball upward. the astronaut is 6 ft, 6 in. tall, and the initial velocity of the ball is 3030 ft per sec. the height s of the ball in feet is given by the equation s equals negative 2.7 t squared plus 30 t plus 6.5s=−2.7t2+30t+6.5, where t is the number of seconds after the ball was thrown. complete parts a and b.
