A light beam travels through a diamond (n=2.42) to pure water (n=1.33). The refracted ray will:
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

b) bend away from the normal

Explanation:

According to snell's law , if i be the angle of incidence and r be the angle of refraction

sin i / sin r = 1.33 / 2.42

sin i / sin r = .55

Hence sin r > sin i

r > i

In other words angle of refraction will be more than angle of incidence . So, the ray will bend away from the normal .

From what height must an oxygen molecule fall in a vacuum so that its kinetic energy at the bottom equals the average energy of
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The  value is  h  = 11930 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  temperature is  T  =  300 \  K

     

Generally the root mean square speed of the  oxygen molecules is mathematically represented as

        v  =  \sqrt{\frac{3 *  R  *  T }{M} }  =  \sqrt{ 2 *  g  *  h }

Here  R is the gas constant with a value  R  =  8.314 \  J\cdot K^{-1} \cdot \  mol^{-1}

    M  is the molar mass of oxygen molecule with value M  =  0.032 \  kg /mol

So  

     \frac{3 *  8.314   *  300 }{0.032}   =  2 *  9.8  *  h

=>    h  = 11930 \ m

If a rigid body rotates about a fixed axis passing through its center of mass, the body's linear momentum is
dexar [7]

Answer:

The linear momentum is zero

Explanation:

Because

When a rigid body is rotating about a fixed axis passing through point O, the body’s linear momentum given as L = mvG

But VG= 0 so

Linear momentum is zero

<u>Answer</u>

D. Base units

<u>Explanation</u>

Basic units are also called fundamental units. They are the standard units agreed internationally for measurements. Most of these measurements are taken from the ground and they are used to derive other units. They are seven in number. There are:

The metre (m)

The kilogram (kg)

The second (s)

The ampere (A)

The kelvin (K)

The candela (cd)

The mole (mol)
