Answer:

The index of refraction,n= 1.5

Explanation:

Index of refraction, n is given by:

n = c/ v

Given: c = speed of light= 3.0×10^8m/s

v= speed of light in glass= 2.0×10^8m/s

n= (3.0×10^8)/(2.0×10^8)

n= 1.5

irakobra [83]
The marbles that are 'more energetic' fall out of the tray, in the same way particles have enough energy to escape and turn into a gas.

A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the lens strength (a.k.a, lens p
Kipish [7]

Answer:

20.0 cm

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

The normal power for distant vision is 50.0 D. A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the power of her eyes. What is the closest object she can see clearly?

Solution

Now, the power of a lens, P = 1/f = 1/u + 1/v where f = focal length of lens, u = object distance from eye lens and v = image distance from eye lens.

Given that we require a 10 % increase in the power of the lens to accommodate the image she sees clearly, the new power P' = 50.0 D + 10/100 × 50 = 50.0 D + 5 D = 55.0 D.

Also, since the object is seen clearly, the distance from the eye lens to the retina equals the distance between the image and the eye lens. So, v = 2.00 cm = 0.02 m

Now, P' = 1/u + 1/v

1/u = P'- 1/v

1/u = 55.0 D - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 50.0 m⁻¹

1/u = 5.0 m⁻¹

u = 1/5.0 m⁻¹

u = 0.2 m

u = 20 cm

So, at 55.0 dioptres, the closet object she can see is 20 cm from her eye.

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is
mel-nik [20]

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is  8.9876 × 10⁹ N·m²/C². Divide the magnitude of the charge by the square of the distance of the charge from the point. Multiply the value from step 1 with Coulomb's constant.

<h3>what is magnitude ?</h3>

Magnitude can be defined as the maximum extent of size and the direction of an object.

It is used as a common factor in vector and scalar quantities, as we know scalar quantities are those quantities that have magnitude only and vector quantities are those quantities have both magnitude and direction.

There are different ways where magnitude is used Magnitude of earthquake,  charge on an electron, force, displacement, Magnitude of gravitational force
