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 box has a mass of 35kg.he pulls the rope horizontally with a force of 175 N. Find the horizontal acceleration of the box as it
Cloud [144]

Answer:

3.43 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force is equal to mass times acceleration. (F=ma). You can use inverse operations to get the formula for acceleration, which is acceleration is equal to force divided by mass. (a=F/m). Since there are two forces here, the force friction (55 N), and the force applied (175 N), we must solve for the net force. To solve for the net force, you take the applied force (175 N) and subtract the frictional force from it (55 N). Thus, the net force is 120 N. With this done, we can now solve for our acceleration.

Using the equation for acceleration, we take the force and divide it by mass.

120/35

Answer: 3.43* m/s^2**

*Note: This is rounded to the nearest hundredth, the full answer is: 3.42857143

**Note: In case you're confused, this is meters per second squared.

A 6 cm object is 15 cm from a convex lens that has a focal length of 5 cm. What is the distance of the image from the lens, to t
Vesna [10]

Answer:

7.50 cm

Explanation:

The formula

1/v + 1/u = 1/f

Is used.

where.

u is the object distance.

v is the image distance.

f is the focal length of the lens.

1/v + 1/15 = 1/5

1/v = 1/5 - 1/15

1/v = (3-1)/15

1/v = 2/15

2v = 15

V = 15/2

V = 7.5 cm

For focal length, f in lens is always taken as negative for concave and positive for convex. ... And for image distance, V in lens it is taken as positive in Convex lens since image is formed on +X side. It is taken as negative in Concave lens since image is formed in -X side of the Cartesian.
