Answer:

refractive index for water,glass,diamond are 0.752m, 0.667m, 0.413m respectively

Explanation:

refractive index (n) = \frac{velocity of light in air/vacuum}{velocity of light in substance}

velocity =\frac{distance}{time}

The time for travel is kept constant for all mediums.

refractive index (n) = \frac{\frac{distance in vacuum}{time} }{\frac{distance in medium}{time} }\\ \\=\frac{distance in vacuum}{distance in medium}

distance in medium = \frac{distance in vacuum}{refractive index of medium}

S_{medium}  = \frac{S_{vacuum} }{n_{medium} }

For water, n= 1.33

S_{water} = \frac{1 }{1.33}

S_{water} = 0.752m

For glass, n=1.5

S_{glass}= \frac{1 }{1.5}

S_{glass} = 0.667m

For diamond, n= 2.42

S_{diamond} = \frac{1 }{2.42}

S_{diamond} = 0.413m

Y_Kistochka [10]
<span>The solution is: Earth circumference is 2*pi*r=25,130 miles 25,130 miles corresponds to 360Âş, so 5,000 miles corresponds to 360*5000/25130 = 71,6Âş 71,6Âş is equivalent to 71,6*2pi/360=1,25 radians Angular velocity is 1,25/9=0,139 rad/h</span>

Which one of the following statements is false?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

d) False. If the angular momentum is zero, it implies in electro without turning, which would create a collapse towards the nucleus, so in both models the moment must be different from zero

Explanation:

Affirmations

a) true. The orbits are accurate in the Bohr model and probabilistic in quantum mechanics

b) True. If both give the same results and use the same quantum number (n)

c) True. If in angular momentum it is quantized, in the Bohr model too but it does not justify it

d) False. If the angular momentum is zero, it implies in electro without turning, which would create a collapse towards the nucleus, so in both models the moment must be different from zero

20. Which statement is false? Rewrite it so that it is true. a. Fusion involves the combination of two smaller atoms into a larg
Annette [7]

Answer:

c. Fission and fusion are two processes that release very little amounts of energy.

Explanation:

This statement is false. In fact, both fission and fusion are processes which release very large amounts of energy. The statement can be rewritten as it is true as follows:

"Fission and fusion are two processes that release very large amounts of energy."

Fission occurs when a large nucleus break apart, splitting into smaller nuclei, while fusion occurs when two light nuclei combine together into a larger nucleus. In both cases, the mass of the reactants is larger than the mass of the final products, so some of the mass has been converted into energy, according to Einstein's equation:

E = \Delta m c^2

where

E is the energy released

\Delta m is the mass lost in the process

c is the speed of light

Since c is a very large number (c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s), we see that even a very small mass \Delta m causes the released of a huge amount of energy, so both fission and fusion release large amounts of energy.
