If a material has an index of refraction of 1.61, Determine the speed of light through this medium

Physics
1 answer:
aliya0001 [1]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

1.86 x 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

n = 1.61

The formula for the refractive index is given by

n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in material

n = c / v

v = c / n

v = (3 x 10^8) / 1.61

v = 1.86 x 10^8 m/s

Unpolarized light with an intensity of 22.4 ????ux passes through a polarizer whose transmission axis is vertically oriented. (a
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a)      I₁ = 11.2 Lux , vertical direction , b)      I₂ = 1.44 Lux

Explanation:

a) A polarized is a system that absorbs light that is not polarized in the direction of its axis, therefore half of the non-polarized light must be absorbed

consequently the above the processed light has half of the incident intensity and the directional of the polarized

          I₁ = I₀ / 2

          I₁ = 22.4 / 2

          I₁ = 11.2 Lux

is polarized in the vertical direction

b) The polarized light falls on a second polarizer, therefore it must comply with the law of Malus

         I₂ = I₁ cos² θ

         I₂ = 11.2 cos² 69

         I₂ = 1.44 Lux

A student stands on a scale, and the scale reads 85 N. What is being measured by the scale
Dmitry [639]

Force. Force is measured by newtons, probably because he came up with the equations to calculate force.

Hope this helps!
