Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes it is called the refractive index denoted by n

n=sin<i/sin<r

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

Refractive index is a number that describes the speed of light through a material.

n = sin I/ sin r

It has no dimension and it is equal to the velocity of light c of a given wavelength in an empty space divided by its velocity v in a substance.

n = c/v

Definition of termperature in thermodynamics
antoniya [11.8K]
"Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, which is related to how hot or cold that substance is. Historically, two equivalent concepts of temperature have developed, the thermodynamic description and a microscopic explanation based on statistical physics"

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The volume of contaminated water

= cross sectional area x height of water level

3.14 x 9 x 9 x 7.5 ft³

= 1907.55 ft³

mass = density x volume

= 1907.55 x 63.5 lbs

m = 121129.425 lbs

This mass has to be raised to the height of 8 ft before evacuation .

There is a rise of centre of mass of

8 - 7.5/2 ft

h = 4.25 ft

Energy required

= mgh

= 121129.425 x 32 x 4.25

= 16473601.8 unit.
