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

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

W = 1222.4 J = 1.22 KJ

Explanation:

The work done on an object is the product of the force applied on it and the displacement it covers as a result of this force. It must be noted that the component of displacement in the direction of force should only be used. Hence, the work can be calculated as:

W = F d Cosθ

where,

W = Work Done = ?

F = Force Applied = 64 N

d = Distance Covered by Box = 19.1 m

θ = Angle between force and displacement = 0°

Therefore,

W = (64 N)(19.1 m)Cos 0°

<u>W = 1222.4 J = 1.22 KJ</u>

If a 1 kg book has 46 Joules of gravitational potential energy how high is the shelf it is on?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

4.7m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1kg

Gravitational potential energy  = 46J

Unknown:

Height of the shelf  = ?

Solution:

The potential energy is due to the position of a body above the ground.

        Gravitational potential energy  = mgh

m is the mass,

g is the acceleration due gravity  = 9.8m/s²

h is the height which is unknown

                       46  = 1 x 9.8 x h

                       h  = 4.7m
