By definition, the refractive index is
n = c/v
where c =  3 x 10⁸ m/s,  the speed of light in vacuum
v = the speed of light in the medium (the liquid).

The frequency of the light source is
f = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(495 x 10⁻⁹ m) = 6.0606 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Because the wavelength in the liquid is 434 nm = 434 x 10⁻⁹ m, 
v = (6.0606 x 10¹⁴ 1/s)*(434 x 10⁻⁹ m) = 2.6303 x 10⁸ m/s

The refractive index is (3 x 10⁸)/(2.6303 x 10⁸) = 1.1406

Answer:  a.  1.14

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Find the list below.

Explanation:

Energy conversion imply the transformation of energy from one form to another. Examples of these conversions in my home include the following:

1. Chemical energy stored in food is converted to mechanical energy used in working(example sweeping)

2. Chemical energy stored in batteries are used to produce sound energy from the radio.

3. Electrical energy flowing through the wires are used to provide heat energy from the heating device.

4. Electric energy stored in the fan is converted to kinetic energy.

5. Chemical energy stored in petrol is converted to mechanical and electrical energies in the generator.

6. Electric energy supplied by the electric gas cooker is used to generate thermal energy after heating water.

7. Electrical energy flowing through the wires supply light energy in the bulbs.

8. Electric energy is converted to light and sound energy in the televisions.

9. Light energy from the sun is converted to chemical energy in the plants at the garden.

10. Electric energy is converted to sound and light energy in the kitchen blender.

As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave ___ the frequency of the wave ________.
adoni [48]

Answer:

As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave _decrease__ the frequency of the wave _increase_______.

Explanation:

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

Wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.

That number, also known as the frequency, will be larger for a short-wavelength wave than for a long-wavelength wave. The equation that relates wavelength and frequency is:

V= fλ

where v= velocity

           f= frequency

            λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ  

also f ∝ 1/λ

For electromagnetic radiation, the speed is equal to the speed of light, c, and the equation becomes:

C= fλ

where c= Speed of light

           f= frequency

            λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ  

also f ∝ 1/λ

With countercurrent flow, diffusion happened in all regions of the filter. Explain why
jeka94

Answer:

When the blood and the dialysate are flowing in the same direction, as the the dialysate and the blood move away from the region of higher concentration of the urea, to a region distant from the source, the concentration of urea in the blood stream and in the dialysis reach equilibrium and diffusion across the semipermeable membrane stops within the higher filter regions such as II, III, IV or V

However, for counter current flow, as the concentration of the urea in the blood stream becomes increasingly lesser the, it encounters increasingly unadulterated dialysate coming from the dialysate source, such that diffusion takes place in all regions of the filter

Anestetic [448]
Potential energy is energy that is found in a system, grounded on the position of objects. The Coulomb (C) is the unit of charge, and the unit of electric potential is the Volt (V), which is equivalent to (J/C) or Joule per Coulomb.So the formula for this is potential = kQ / d, plugging in the given from the questions will give us:potential = 8.99e9N·m²/C² * 1.602e-19C / 0.053e-9m = 27 V

Why do stars twinkle​
vlada-n [284]

As light from a star races through our atmosphere, it bounces and bumps through the different layers, bending the light before you see it. Since the hot and cold layers of air keep moving, the bending of the light changes too, which causes the star's appearance to wobble or twinkle.
