Answer:

speed =  1.24 ×  10⁸m/s

frequency = 4.74 × 10¹⁴Hz

wavelength = 262nm

Explanation:

the speed of the helium-neon light in zircon is given by,

v = c / n

c = 3 × 10⁸m/s is the speed of light in vacuum (and in air)

n = 2.419 is the refractive index of diamond

v = 3 × 10⁸ / 2.419

= 1.24 ×  10⁸m/s

(b) Frequency

The wavelength of the light in air is:

λ₀ = 632.8 × 10⁻⁹

The frequency of the light does not depend on the medium, so it is equal in air and in diamond. Therefore, we can calculate the frequency by using the speed of light in air and the wavelength in air:

f₀ = c / λ₀

= 3 × 10⁸ / 632.8 × 10⁻⁹

= 4.74 × 10¹⁴Hz

and the frequency of the light indiamond is the same:

f¹ = f₀ =  4.74 × 10¹⁴Hz

(c) Wavelength

To calculate the wavelength of the light in daimond, we can use the relationship between speed of light in diamond and frequency:

λ¹ = v / f¹

= 1.24 ×  10⁸ / 4.74 × 10¹⁴

= 2.62 × 10⁻⁷m

= 262nm

A cannonball is fired vertically upwards at 100.0 m/s a) How long will it take to return to the cannon? b) what is it's maximum
V125BC [204]
Answer:
a) 20s
b) 500m

Explanation:
Given the initial velocity = 100 m/s, acceleration = -10m/s^2 (since it is moving up, acceleration is negative), and at the maximum height, the ball is not moving so final velocity = 0 m/s.

To find time, we apply the UARM formula:

v final = (a x t) + v initial

Replacing the values gives us:

0 = (-10 x t) + 100

-100 = -10t

t = 10s

It takes 10s for the the ball to reach its max height, but it must also go down so it takes 2 trips, once going up and then another one going down, both of which take the same time to occur

So 10s going up and another 10s going down:

10x2 = 20s

b) Now that we have v final = 0, v initial = 100, a = -10, t = 10s (10s because maximum displacement means the displacement from the ground to the max height) we can easily find the displacement by applying the second formula of UARM:

Δy = (1/2)(a)(t^2) + (v initial)(t)

Replacing the values gives us:

Δy = (1/2)(-10)(10^2) + (100)(10)

= (-5)(100) + 1000

= -500 + 1000

= 500 m

Hope this helps, brainliest would be appreciated :)

the diagram to the right shows an electrical wire. the arrow shows the direction of the current. what does “b” represent?
goblinko [34]

B represents the direction of the magnetic field around the wire

Explanation:

A wire carrying an electric current always produces a magnetic field around itself. The lines of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wires are concentric circles around the wire. The magnitude of the field is given by the formula:

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}

where

\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability

I is the current in the wire

r is the distance from the wire

The direction of the field lines is given by the so-called right hand rule, shown in the figure. Basically, the thumb of the right hand is placed in the direction of the electric current, while the other fingers are "wrapped" around the thumb: the direction of the other fingers give the direction of the magnetic field lines.

If the toy car weighs 250g and has a kinetic energy of 2.0 J, what is its velocity
sergejj [24]

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (J) = 2j

mass= 250g

velocity=?

1kg=1000g

mass= 250/1000

mass=0.25kg

Kinetic energy (J) = ½ x mass (kg) x [velocity]² (m/s)

2=1/2 × 0.25× [velocity]²

2=0.125× [velocity]²

[velocity]² = 2/0.125

[velocity]²=16

velocity= (16)^1/2

velocity= 4 m/s
