This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:

A runner starts at point A, runs around a 1-mile track, and finishes the run back at point A. Which of the following statements is true?

A. The runner's displacement is 1 mile.

B. The runner's displacement is zero.

C. The distance the runner covered is zero.

D. The runner's speed was zero.

The answer to this question is B. The runner's displacement is zero

Explanation:

Displacement always implies a change of position; this means an object or individual moves from point A to point B, and therefore the original position is different from the final position. Additionally, in displacement, other related factors such as the total distance the body moved and the direction of movement. In the case presented, it can be concluded there was no displacement or the displacement is zero because even when the runner moved and ran two miles, he returned to the initial position, and without a change in the position, there is no displacement.

:What will be the value of the refractive index of the medium? Critical angle of that medium is 30 degree
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Let the second medium be air (n₁=1)

The refractive index n₂ of the medium where first medium is air is found (a)

(a) n₂ = 2

Explanation:

Critical angle can be defined as the angle of incidence that provides the angle of refraction of 90°.

Refractive index of a medium can be defined as a number that describes that how fast a light will travel through that medium.

Critical angle and Refractive index are related by:

\theta_{critical}= sin^{-1}(\frac{n_1}{n_2})

sin \theta_{critical}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}

To find refractive index of medium with respect to air, substitute n₁=1 (Refractive index of air is 1)

Also θ(critical)=30°

Find n₂ :

sin30= \frac{1}{n_2}\\0.5=\frac{1}{n_2}\\n_2=\frac{1}{0.5}\\n_2=2

What type of change accurs when a substance stays the same
Thepotemich [5.8K]
This would be a physical change because it can change back to its original form. This is like ripping paper. You can piece it back together and it still is paper.

The opposite of this is chemical change. Chemical change means the product has been changed completely like burning paper. The paper has now been turned to ash and it's impossible to change this back to its original form.
