A light beam travels at 1.94×108 in quartz. The wavelength of the light in quartz is 355 .Part AWhat is the index of refraction
Alja [10]

A) 1.55

The speed of light in a medium is given by:

v=\frac{c}{n}

where

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light in a vacuum

n is the refractive index of the material

In this problem, the speed of light in quartz is

v=1.94\cdot 10^8 m/s

So we can re-arrange the previous formula to find n, the index of refraction of quartz:

n=\frac{c}{v}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.94\cdot 10^8 m/s}=1.55

B) 550.3 nm

The relationship between the wavelength of the light in air and in quartz is

\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}

where

\lambda is the wavelenght in quartz

\lambda_0 is the wavelength in air

n is the refractive index

For the light in this problem, we have

\lambda=355 nm\\n=1.55

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to find \lambda_0, the wavelength in air:

\lambda_0 = n\lambda=(1.55)(355 nm)=550.3 nm

Fill in a T/F answer for each statement below. If false, correct the statement to make it true.:
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let's answer these statements

.1) True. This is the law of reflection.

.2) False. The speed of light depends on the index of refraction n = c / v

           v = c / n

.3) True. The frequency creates a forced oscillation, whereby the atoms re-emit at the same incident frequency

.4) False. The index of refraction is a measure of the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum and the material environment, the ability to change the trajectory is given by the law of refraction

.5) True. True due to the change in beam trajectory due to the law of refraction

.6 False. The phenomenon occurs when you pass from a medium with a higher index to one with a lower ratio, because the refracted beam separates from the normal

.7) True.

.8) False so that the lightning approach is valid Lam >> d,

.9) True.

HELP. A river flows South with a speed of 8m/s. From the shore, you see a boat moving South with a speed of 10 m/s. From their f
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

18 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of river is 8 m/s due South

From the shore, you see a boat moving South with a speed of 10 m/s. Both boat and river are moving in same direction. The resultant velocity will add up.

v = 10 m/s + 8 m/s

v = 18 m/s

Hence, the rowers are moving with a speed of 18 m/s.

Two stars have the same radius but have very different temperatures. the red star has a surface temperature of 3,000 k and the b
dangina [55]
I would say that insofar as the two stars temperatures are presumably closely related to their luminosity, that the blue star at 156,100 k compared to 3000k for the red star then the blue star has a luminosity of 52 times that of the red star.
