The absolute refractive index is equal to the speed of light of the wave in air divided by the speed of light in the second medium. This means that it is equal to 3 x10^8 / 1.71 x10^8. This means the answer is 1.75

Absolute Index of Refraction 

                                               =  Velocity of Light in air / Velocity of light in medium

                                               =   3 * 10⁸  m/s   / 1.71 * 10⁸ m/s

                                               = 1.75

A system that repeats to and from its mean or rest point. that executes harmonic motion. a few examples I've heard of are since the springtime a mass-spring system,a swing, simple pendulum, one more example is a steel ball rolling in a curved is this what you need or do you need three more sentences dish. to get S.H.M a body just displaced away from the resting position and of course then is released. the human body oscillates due to the reinforce that pulls it back do you need anything else answered on this and I'll answer it

A tin atom has 50 electrons. Electrons in the ________ subshell experience the lowest effective nuclear charge.
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

5p

Explanation:

We are given that a tin has 50 electrons.

We have to find in which subshell electrons experience the lowest effective nuclear charge.

We know that the electron in outermost shell experience the lowest effective nuclear charge.

Electronic configuration is given by

50=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^65s^24d^{10}5p^2

Outer most sub-shell is 5p. Therefore, 5p subshell experience the lowest effective nuclear charge because the distance of 5p sub-shell is large from nucleus.

Answer: 5p
