What's the value of 1,152 Btu in joules? A. 1,964,445 J B. 2,485,664 J C. 987,875 J D. 1,215,360 J
OLga [1]

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Given,  1,152 British thermal units

1 British thermal unit = 1055.06 joules

So, in 1,152 British thermal units there will be :

1152\times 1055.06 Joules=1215429.12 Joules=1.21542912\times 10^{8} Joules

Hence, from the given options the closest answer is of option (d). So, option (d) is correct.

Light travels through a liquid at 2.25e8 m/s. What is the index of refraction of the liquid?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The index of refraction of the liquid is n = 1.33 equivalent to that of water

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The index of refraction of light in a medium ( n ) determines the degree of "bending" of light in that medium.

- The index of refraction is material property and proportional to density of the material.

- The denser the material the slower the light will move through associated with considerable diffraction angles.

- The lighter the material the faster the light pass through the material without being diffracted as much.

- So, in the other words index of refraction can be expressed as how fast or slow light passes through a medium.

- The reference of comparison of how fast or slow the light is the value of c = 3.0*10^8 m/s i.e speed of light in vacuum or also assumed to be the case for air.

- so we can mathematically express the index of refraction as a ratio of light speed in the material specified and speed of light.

- The light passes through a liquid with speed v = 2.25*10^8 m/s :

                         n = c / v\\\\n = \frac{ 3*10^8 }{2.25*10^8} \\\\n = 1.33

- The index of refraction of the liquid is n = 1.33 equivalent to that of water.

Light in vacuum is incident on the surface of a slab of transparent material. In the vacuum the beam makes an angle of 39.9° wit
wariber [46]

Answer:

n=2.053

Explanation:

We will use Snell's Law defined as:

n_{1}*Sin\theta_{1}=n_{2}*Sin\theta_{2}

Where n values are indexes of refraction and \theta values are the angles in each medium. For vacuum, the index of refraction in n=1. With this we have enough information to state:

1*Sin(39.9)=n_{2}*Sin(18.2)

Solving for n_{2} yields:

n_{2}=\frac{Sin(39.9)}{Sin(18.2)}=2.053

Remember to use degrees for trigonometric functions instead of radians!
