We are given with
distance traveled through vacuum = 1.0 m
refractive index of water = 1.33
refractive index of glass = 1.50
refractive index of diamond = 2.42

distance traveled through water is = 1.0/1.33 = 0.75 m
distance traveled through water is = 1.0/1.50 = 0.67 m
distance traveled through water is = 1.0/2.42 = 0.41 m

Answer:

distance travelled in water = 1 / 1.33 = 0.75 m

distance travelled in glass = 1/ 1.5 = 0.66 m

distance travelled in diamond = 1/ 2.42 = 0.41 m

Explanation:

velocity of light in water, glass and diamond will be 1/1.33 , 1/1.5 and 1/2.42 times respectively of that in vacuum. So distance travelled in these mediums will be less.

Which statements provides evidence that the earth revolves around the sun
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Different star constellations are visible from Earth at different seasons of the year.

Explanation:

The reason the fact that we can see different constellations in the sky during different seasons on earth is the most compelling reason we travel around the sun is because if the sun travelled around the earth, certain constellations would only be visible in certain places. You’d have to travel to see certain ones.

However, you don’t have to do that because we travel around the sun, therefore travelling around other stars too.

Un móvil se encuentra en la posición inicial x0 = 22 m, y se mueve con velocidad 5 m/s. Calcula la posición en la que se encuent
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

La posición en la que se encuentra el móvil en el instante t = 30 s es 172 m.

Explanation:

El movimiento rectilíneo uniforme (MRU) es el movimiento que describe un cuerpo o partícula a través de una línea recta a velocidad constante.

La distancia recorrida,  x , por un móvil que tiene un MRU con un velocidad  v  durante el intervalo de tiempo  t  es:

x= x0 + v*t

donde x0 es la posición inicial.

En este caso:

  • x0= 22 m
  • v= 5 m/s
  • t= 30 s

Reemplazando:

x= 22 m + 5 m/s* 30 s

Resolviendo:

x= 22 m + 150 m

x= 172 m

<u><em>La posición en la que se encuentra el móvil en el instante t = 30 s es 172 m.</em></u>
