Refractive index, n = v1/v2

Where,
v1 = Speed of light in vacuum = 3*10^8 m/s
v2 = Speed of light in a medium (sphere) = 2*10^8 m/s

Therefore,
n= (3*10*8)/(2*10^8) = 1.5

t requires1200 kg of coal to produce the energy needed to make 1.0 kg of aluminum metal. If a single soda can requires approxima
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The mass of coal is 108 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy of coal = 1200 kg

Mass of aluminum = 1.0 kg

Energy required for single soda can = 15 g of Al

Energy required for 6 pack of cans = 6\times15=90\ g\ of\ Al

We need to calculate the mass of coal

Using formula of mass

\text{mass of coal}=\dfrac{\text{Energy of coal}\times\text{Energy required for 6 pack of cans}}{\text{Mass of aluminum}}

Put the value into the formula

m=\dfrac{1200\times90\times10^{-3}}{1.0}

Put the value into the formula

m=108\ Kg

Hence, The mass of coal is 108 kg.
