The speed of light in water is 2.25 x 108 m/s. What is true about the index of refraction of water?
djverab [1.8K]
Light speed in water is 2.25 times 10^5 m/s so the index of refraction is higher than the index of refraction of light in a vacuum which is 1.0. (speed in vacuum for light is 300,000 km/s)

Index of refraction of light in water is 3.0 time 10^5 m/s divided by 2.25 times 10^5 m/s = 1.33.

Hope this is what you wanted.

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The main  function of the plasma membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. Made of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules it also regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells. Plasma membranes must be very flexible in order to allow certain cells, such as red blood cells and white blood cells, to change shape as they pass through narrow capillaries. Membrane receptors provide extracellular attachment sites for effectors like hormones and growth factors, which then trigger intracellular responses. Some viruses, such as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), can intercept  these receptors to get into the cells, causing infections.
