Transverse, I think. I may be wrong.
Answer:
80%
Explanation:
800 / 1000 = 0.8
Efficiency = 0.8 *100 = 80%
To find the ratio of planetary speeds Va/Vb we need the orbital velocity formula:
V=√({G*M}/R), where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the distant star and R is the distance of the planet from the star it is orbiting.
So Va/Vb=[√( {G*M}/Ra) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb) ], in our case Ra = 7.8*Rb
Va/Vb=[ √( {G*M}/{7.8*Rb} ) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb )], we put everything under one square root by the rule: (√a) / (√b) = √(a/b)
Va/Vb=√ [ { (G*M)/(7.8*Rb) } / { (G*M)/(Rb) } ], when we cancel out G, M and Rb we get:
Va/Vb=√(1/7.8)/(1/1)=√(1/7.8)=0.358 so the ratio of Va/Vb = 0.358.
If the refractive index of some substance is 1.33, then
the speed of light in that substance is
(speed of light in vacuum) / (1.33) =
(299,792,458 m/s) / (1.33) = <em>225,407,863 m/s</em>
