The index of refraction of the medium where the speed of light is 1.24× 10⁸m/s, is 2.42.

To find the answer, we need to know about the relation between the refractive index and velocity of light.

<h3>What's the the expression of refractive index of a medium in term of velocity of light?</h3>
  • Refractive index of any medium (n)= C/V
  • C= speed of light in vaccum which is 3×10⁸ m/s , V = velocity of light in the medium

<h3>What's the refractive index of a medium in which speed of light is 1.24 x 10⁸ m/s?</h3>

Refractive index of the medium =

3×10⁸/1.24 x 10⁸

= 2.42

Thus, we can conclude that the refractive index of the medium is 2.42.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that , If the frictional force on a system is zero , then the total energy of a system will be conserved.

By using energy conservation

KE₁ +  U₁ = KE₂ + U₂

KE₁=Kinetic energy at location 1

U₁ =Potential energy at location 1

KE₂=Kinetic energy at location 2

U₂=Potential energy at location 2

Therefore, Raymond is thinking in a right way.

An object is dropped from a height of 75.0 m above ground level. (a) Determine the distance traveled during the first second. (b
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a)Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b)Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c)Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion

             S = ut + 0.5at²

     Here u = 0, and a = g

              S = 0.5gt²

    Distance traveled during the first second ( t =1 )

              S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 1² = 4.905 m

   Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b)  We have equation of motion

            v² = u² + 2as

      Here u = 0, s= 75 m and a = g

           v² = 0² + 2 x g x 75 = 150 x 9.81

           v = 38.36 m/s

      Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c) We have S = 0.5gt²

                   75 = 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                    t = 3.91 s

   We need to find distance traveled last second

   That is

          S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 3.91² - 0.5 x 9.81 x 2.91² = 33.45 m

   Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m

In an Internal Combustion Engine, the fuel is singed in the chamber or vessel. Example: Diesel or Petrol motor utilized as a part of Cars. 
The internal engine has its vitality touched off in the barrel, as 99.9% of motors today. In an External Combustion Engine, the inner working fuel is not consumed. Here the liquid is being warmed from an outer source. The fuel is warmed and extended through the interior instrument of the motor bringing about work. Eg. Steam Turbine, Steam motor Trains. An outer burning case is a steam motor where the warming procedure is done in a kettle outside the motor.
