A cruise took 6 hours to fulfill its trip. It travelled at an average

Is the refraction different entering medium that has a higher index of refraction compared to entering amedium that has a lower

oee [108]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The speed of light when it travels through glass, diamond, etc, the light travels at different speed from the speed of light. Speed of the light in material is related to the index of refraction.

The change in speed which occurs when the light passes from one medium to the another is responsible for bending of the light which is called as refraction.

<u>When the light goes into a medium with the higher index of the refraction, light bends towards normal. Conversely, if the light traveling goes from higher refractive index to lower refractive index, it will bend away from the normal. </u>

<u>Hence, the refraction is different in both the scenario.</u>

The acceleration due to gravity, g , is constant at sea level on the Earth's surface. However, the acceleration decreases as an

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

g = g₀ [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

Explanation:

The law of universal gravitation is

F = G m Me / Re²

Where g is the universal gravitational constant, m and Me are the mass of the body and the Earth, respectively and R is the distance between them

F = G Me /Re² m

We call gravity acceleration a

g₀ = G Me / Re².

When the body is at a height h above the surface the distance is

R = Re + h

Therefore the attractive force is

F = G Me m / (Re + h)²

Let's take Re's common factor

F = G Me / Re² m / (1+ h / Re)²

As Re has a value of 6.37 10⁶ m and the height of the body in general is less than 10⁴ m, the h / Re term is very small, so we can perform a series expansion

(1+ h / Re)⁻² = 1 -2 h / Re + 6/2 (h / Re) 2 + ...

Let's replace

F = G Me /Re² m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

F = g₀ m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

If we call the force of attraction at height

m g =g₀ m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

g = g₀ [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]
