The ratio of the speed of light v in a medium to the speed of light in a vacuum c is called its Refractive Index n
v/c=n
Different substances have different Refractive Indices (plural of Index). Values are always bigger than 1.
Refractive index of water is 1.33
Refractive index of glass is about 1.4
Draw a freebody diagram, it will explain it really well
the boat is floating on top of the water, which means that the net acceleration in the y direction must be zero
the boat is not sinking (dominant downwards acceleration/force)
the boat is not flying (dominant upward acceleration/force)
that measn

now, if you drew the FBD, you only have 2 forces acting on the boat.
the upward bouyancy force on the boat and the downward force due to weight

since the net force is equal to zero

and thus
Here are the ones that I know about
and can think of just now:
-- wind
-- solar
-- nuclear
-- tidal
-- hydro
-- geothermal
-- biomass
Weight changes due to the gravitational pull in mars,basically gravity
The upward force of the chain on the diamond would be the tension in the chain, and this tension would have to support the weight of the 45g that hangs from the chain.
mass = 45 g = 45/1000 kg = 0.045kg
Weight = mg = 0.045 * 10 ≈ 0.45N, g ≈ 10 m/s²
<span>So the upward force is ≈ </span><span>0.45N. </span>
