Answer: True

Explanation:

The speed of light in a material medium depends on its molecular structure, in particular its electromagnetic properties, electrical and magnetic permeability. These properties may have different values for different wavelengths or frequencies of the incident light.

In this way, the speed of light depends on the medium and reaches its maximum value in a vacuum, so that, it will be lower in a material medium . In the vacuum (or in the air) the speed of light is 3 x 10⁸ m / s and in any other medium its value is lower.

To characterize the particularities of the propagation of light in the media, the refractive index is introduced ,

n = c / v

where c is speed of light in a vacuum and v is the speed of light in the medium considered . So the speed of light in a medium is given by the refractive index whose value is always greater than 1.

The world's total petroleum reserve is estimated at 2.0 x 10^22 joules La joule (J) is the unit of energy where 1J =1kg m^2/s^2)

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

It will take $1.1\times 10^{2}years$ to exhaust the supply

Explanation:

We have to apply unitary method to solve this problem.

Divide total petroleum reserve by petroleum consumption in each year to calculate estimated time.

Presently, $1.8\times 10^{20}$ joules of petroleum are being consumed per year.

Hence, applying unitary method, $2.0\times 10^{22}$ joules of petroleum can be consumed in $\frac{2.0\times 10^{22}}{1.8\times 10^{20}}years=1.1\times 10^{2}years$

10 points !! Which can happen during a physical change?

Sveta_85 [38]

I think that the answer is A because if you think about water for an example. When water turns into ice, it's still technically water, just the molecules are frozen. The water is physically changed. It could also see why you think it is B but I don't think so completely. It doesn't really make sense to me. So I'd choose A. It's definitely not C or D.
