In order to solve this, we will use the formula

$n=\frac{c}{v}$

where n is the index of infraction, c is the speed of light (3x10^8), and v is the medium in which the velocity is measured

solving for n,

n = (3x10^8)/(2.75x10^8) = 1.09

What is the density of iron if 5.0 cm3 has a mass of 39.5g

weqwewe [10]

Answer : $\rho = 7.9\ g/cm^3$

Explanation :

It is given that

Mass of iron, m = 39.5 g

Volume of iron, $V = 5\ cm^3$

So, density is :

density, $\rho =\dfrac{mass}{volume}$

$\rho =\dfrac{39.5g}{5cm^3}$

$\rho = 7.9\ g/cm^3$

At a speed of 60 mph, how far does your car travel in 3 seconds

Viefleur [7K]

One of the many random useless factoids that I carry around
in my head is the factoid that 60 miles per hour is equivalent
to exactly 88 feet per second.

So in three seconds at that speed, you would cover exactly

(3 x 88) = 264 feet.
