3 0

Answer:

1.5

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

C (critical angle) = 41.8°

n (refractive index od benzene) =?

Using the formula n = 1/sineC, the refractive index of benzene can be achieved as shown below:

n = 1/sineC

n = 1/sine 41.8°

n = 1.5

Therefore, the refractive index of benzene is 1.5

the pull of gravity on mars is 3.7m/s^2. if a astronaut on mars lifts a 10 kg rock 1 m off the ground, just to see whats under i
Elanso [62]
Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula:

PE_{grav} =mgh

Where:
PEgrav = Gravitational potential energy
m= mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height

On Earth acceleration due to gravity is a constant 9.8 but since the scenario is on Mars, the pull of gravity is different. In this case, it is 3.7, so we will use that for g.

So put in what you know and solve for what you don't know. 
m = 10kg
g = 3.7m/s^2
h = 1m

So we put that in and solve it. 
PE_{grav} =mgh
PE_{grav} =(10kg)(3.7m/s^{2})(1m)
PE_{grav} =37J

An elevator is moving is an upwards
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The elevator's free-body diagram has three forces, the force of gravity, a downward normal force from you, and an upward force from the tension in the cable holding the elevator. The combined system of you + elevator has two forces, a combined force of gravity and the tension in the cable.
