MatroZZZ [7]
For this we use general equation for gases. Our variables represent:

p- pressure
v-volume
t- temperature

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

in this equation we know:
P1,V1 and T1, T2 and V2. 
We have one equation and 1 unknown variable.

P2 = T2P1V1/T1V2 = 1.1atm

A. How long (in ns) does it take light to travel 1.0 m in a vacuum?
suter [353]

Answer:

a) 3.33 ns

b) Water distance = 0.75 m

Glass distance = 0.66 m

Diamond distance = 0.41 m

Explanation:

We take the speed of light, c = m/s.

Speed = distance/time

Time = distance/speed

a)

t=\dfrac{1}{3.0\times10^{8}}=3.33\times10^{-9}

t = 3.33 ns

b)

Refractive index, n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

n=\dfrac{c}{s}

s=\dfrac{c}{n}

d=s\times t

d=\dfrac{c}{n}\times \dfrac{1}{c}

d=\dfrac{1}{n}

Thus, the distance traveled in the same time is numerically equal to the reciprocal of the refractive index.

For water n = 1.333

d = 1/1.333 = 0.75 m

For glass n = 1.517

d = 0.66 m

For diamond n = 2.417

d = 0.41 m

Why do ice cubes always float at the top of a glass of water?
AnnZ [28]

Because water is a very very very very very unusual substance ... It's
the only known substance whose solid form is less dense than its liquid
form near the same temperature.

In other words, water is the only known substance for which a solid lump
of it floats in a liquid glass of it.

If that were not true ... if the behavior of the density of water around its
freezing temperature were the same as the density of all other known
substances ... then life on Earth would be impossible.

Think about that for a while !  Ya gotta admire whoever it was that designed water !
