The refractive index of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how fast light travels through the material. It is defined as n={\frac {c}{v}}, where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v is the phase velocity of light in the medium.
the ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to its velocity in a specified medium.
Uneven heating of land and sea causes warm air over land to rise up, creating a low pressure zone. So wind blows in from the sea to fill this low pressure zone
You can't answer this question because you aren't giving the specific type of seismic waves. There is an s-wave a p-wave and an l-wave. Those are the basic waves. An S-wave cannot travel through a liquid at all. So, obviously it travels slower than any other seismic wave.
<span>It would travel faster because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.</span>
An enzyme called amylase breaks down starches (complex carbohydrates) into sugars, which your body can more easily absorb. Saliva also contains an enzyme called lingual lipase, which breaks down fats.
Answer: Use the formula q = m·ΔHv in which q = heat energy, m = mass, and ΔHv = heat of vaporization.
