plasmas are a lot like gases
hope this helps.
Answer:
1.11
Explanation:
The index of the medium can be calculated using below formula
V= c/ n ............eqn(1)
Where V= velocity of the light is reduced to while traveling through the second medium= 2.7 x 10^8 m/s
n= index of the medium
c= speed of light= 3 x 10^8 m/s
Substitute for the values in eqn(1)
2.7 x 10^8 = (3 x 10^8 m/s)/ n
Making " n" subject of the formula, we have
n= (3 x 10^8 )/(2.7 x 10^8)
n= 1.11
Hence, the index of the medium is 1.11
Answer: A- It would increase
Explanation:
According to the law of universal gravitation:
Where:
is the module of the attraction force exerted between both objects
is the universal gravitation constant.
and
are the masses of both objects
is the distance between both objects
As we can see, the gravity force is directly proportional to the mass of the bodies or objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.
In other words:
<h2>If we decrease the distance between both objects, the gravitational force between them will increase. </h2>
Using the Equation:
v² = vi² + 2 · a · s → Eq.1
where,
v = final velocity
vi = initial velocity
a = acceleration
s = distance
<span><span>We know that vi = 0 because the ball was at rest initially.
</span><span>
Therefore,
Solving Eq.1 for acceleration,
</span></span> v² = vi² + 2 · a · s
v² = 0 + 2 · a · s
v² = 2 · a · s
Rearranging for a,
a = v ²/2·<span>s
Substituting the values,
a = 46</span>²/2×1<span>
a = 1058 m/s</span>²
<span>Now applying Newton's 2nd law of motion,
</span>
<span>F = ma
= 0.145</span>×<span>1058
F = 153.4 N</span>
