Answer:

The answer is The bending of light in a medium.

Explanation:

The refractive index is the dimensionless number that expresses the relationship between the speed of light in the air and the speed of light in the densest medium, that is, the refractive index directly measures the ratio of the velocity of the light in a vacuum and the speed of light in a medium. This phenomenon occurs because the light rays follow a rectilinear path, but when they pass from one means of transport to another, it is refracted, because the light has a velocity distance according to the density of the material it passes through. The refractive index has variables that affect the measurement, which are temperature, wavelength and pressure.

A wave traveling in water has a frequency of 250 Hz and a wavelength of 6.0 N. What is the speed of the wave?
enyata [817]
The speed of a wave is determined by the product of the frequency and the wavelength; we already have the wavelength and the frequency, so all we need to do is multiply them by each other and use our proper unit of measure.

Velocity (speed) = Frequency x Wavelength
V = 250 x 6
V = 1500

Your answer is 1500 m/s.

I hope this helps!
