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

c. Wind power can turn turbines to generate electrical power.

Explanation:

The correct statement of all is that wind power can turn turbines to generate electrical power.

This is simply the way wind energy from waves are usually harnessed to produce electricity.

  • When a metallic conductor passes in between magnetic fields, it induces and generates electricity as it turns.
  • This is how electricity generating plants are fashioned.
  • Geothermal energy is not generated from moving water. It is produced from heat within the earth brought to the surface. Power from moving water is hydroelectric power.
  • Oil is a non-renewable resource
  • Propane is a non-renewable resource

According to the graph, how many atoms would remain after two half-lives?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Let No be initial no of atoms

N = N0 / 2      after 1 half-life

N = N0 / 4     after 2 half-lives

So after 2 half-lives 20 of the 80 atoms remain
