So n=c/v, n= index, c=speed of light and v= speed of light in diamond. 2.42=c/v so v=c/2.42, c≈<span>3x108 m/sec</span><span> so v=</span><span>1.24x108 m/sec</span>.
<span>Hope this helps.</span>

A man does 500 J of work pushing a car a distance of 2 m. How much force does he apply? Assume there is no friction.
Dmitry [639]

The correct answer is A. 250N

Work is a product of force and distance.

That is, work done=force×distance

Therefore substituting for the values in the question:

500J=force×2m

force= 500Nm/2m=250N

another unit for work done is Nm as force as the SI unit of force is newtons and distance in meters

According to general relativity, light : travels along a curve due to length contraction
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

travels along a curve due to uniform gravity

Explanation:

General relativity

The theory was developed by Albert Einstein , it is the theory of gravitation , according to which , the gravitation effect which is observed between the masses , is the resultant of their warping of the space time .

In general relativity , the equivalence principle is the equivalence of inertial gravitational mass .

According to which , the light bends due to gravitational forces ,therefore ,  the light travels along a curve because of uniform gravity .

To create "dry ice," manufacturers compress and cool carbon dioxide gas until it solidifies. Describe what happens to the carbon
tester [92]

Answer:

Explanation:

Temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. When a substance is cooled, the average kinetic energy of its molecules is reduced tremendously. Thus, the molecules of the substance no longer move at high speeds.

Gases, according to the ideal theory of gas molecules do not associate but are infinitely free and move at very high speeds. However, when cooled, the kinetic energy of these molecules become sufficiently low so as to allow intermolecular association. Secondly, compressing the carbon dioxide gas increases the pressure and decreases its volume. This further makes the carbon dioxide molecules to associate more rapidly. Since dry ice is sublime, CO2 doesn't pass through a liquid state, rather a highly ordered solid-state called dry ice is formed.

what is the force on a 1,000 kilogram elevator that is falling freely under the acceleration of gravity only
solniwko [45]
Force is equal to weight, F= ma    acceleration "a", is now due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s²

Given: Mass m = 1,000 Kg

F =ma W = mg = (1,000 Kg)(9.8 m/s²) 

F = 9,800 N
