Answer:

1.105

Explanation:

To find the index of refraction, divide the actual thickness by the thickness it appears to be. This means divide 4.20 by 3.80.

4.20 / 3.80 = 1.105

The index of refraction is 1.105.

Which element could provide one atom to make an ionic bond with nitrogen?

aev [14]

Answer:

boron

aluminum

gallium

indium

thallium

Explanation:

Any of these could work. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons so you just needed to pick an element that has 3 valence electrons that nitrogen could borrow. This periodic table shows valence electron counts:

7. An 8 kg ball is travelling to the east at 10 ms', collides with a 2 kg ball travelling to the

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The final velocity of the ball is 7m/s

Explanation:

M1=8kg, V1 =10m/s , M2=2kg , V2=-5m/s

initial momentum before collison

m1v1+m2v2

=8×10 +2×(-5) =80-10 = 70kg m/s

final momentum after collison

=(m1+m2)×v

=(8+2)×v

=10v

According to the law of conversion of momentum

initial momentum =final momentum

70=10v

10v=70

v=70/10

v=7m/s

We know the frequency range of certain sounds are: 400-560 Hz, what are the ranges of wavelength in meters when the signal trans

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Range of wavelength will be $5.35\times 10^5m$ to $7.5\times 10^5m$

Explanation:

We have given range of frequency is 400-560 Hz

Speed of the light $c=3\times 10^8m/sec$

We have to find the range of the wavelength of signal transmitted

Ween know that velocity is given by $v=\lambda f$ , here $\lambda$ is wavelength and f is frequency

So for 400 Hz frequency wavelength will be $\lambda =\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{400}=7.5\times 10^5m$

And wavelength for frequency 560 Hz $\lambda =\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{560}=5.35\times 10^5m$

So range of wavelength will be $5.35\times 10^5m$ to $7.5\times 10^5m$
