Answer:

index of refraction

Explanation:

A number that represents how refractive a medium; a ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the spee of light in a medium (n=c/v). The larger the index of refraction, the slower light travels.

-the larger the index of refraction, the more refractive it is

-materials with a larger refractive index will bend light more

A force of 20.0 N is applied to a 3.00 kg object for 4.00 seconds. Calculate the impulse experienced by the object.​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Impulse = 80Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 3kg

Force = 20N

Time = 4 seconds

To find the impulse experienced by the object;

Impulse = force * time

Impulse = 20*4

Impulse = 80Ns

Therefore, the impulse experienced by the object is 80 Newton-seconds.

A roller coaster is stationary at the top of a ramp.
Serjik [45]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The roller coaster is stationary so the kinetic energy would be zero, but it is at the top of ramp so the potential energy would be high as its gravitational  so it would have to be A
