The speed of light in vacuum is exactly 299,792,458 m/s. A beam of light has a wavelength of 651 nm in vacuum. This light propag

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

$v=2.58\times10^8m/s$

Explanation:

The index of refraction is equal to the speed of light c in vacuum divided by its speed v in a substance, or $n=\frac{c}{v}$ . For our case we want to use $v=\frac{c}{n}$ , which for our values is equal to:

$v=\frac{c}{n}=\frac{299792458m/s}{1.16}=258441774.138m/s$

Which we will express with 3 significant figures (since a product or quotient must contain the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the <em>least</em> number of significant figures):

$v=2.58\times10^8m/s$

A tank with a volume of 0.150 m3 contains 27.0oC helium gas at a pressure of 100 atm. How many balloons can be blown up if each

jekas [21]

Answer:

884 balloons

Explanation:

Assume ideal gas, since temperature is constant, then the product of pressure and volume is constant.

So if pressures reduces from 100 to 1.2, the new volume would be

$V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} = \frac{100*0.15}{1.2} = 12.5 m^2$
