ziro4ka [17]4 years ago
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

What is the radius of a communications satellite’s orbital path that is in a uniform circular orbit around Earth and has a perio
pantera1 [17]
If the period of a satellite is T=24 h = 86400 s that means it is in geostationary orbit around Earth. That means that the force of gravity Fg and the centripetal force Fcp are equal:

Fg=Fcp

m*g=m*(v²/R),
 
where m is mass, v is the velocity of the satelite and R is the height of the satellite and g=G*(M/r²), where G=6.67*10^-11 m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻², M is the mass of the Earth and r is the distance from the satellite. 

Masses cancel out and we have:

G*(M/r²)=v²/R, R=r so:

G*(M/r)=v²

r=G*(M/v²), since v=ωr it means v²=ω²r² and we plug it in,

r=G*(M/ω²r²),

r³=G*(M/ω²), ω=2π/T, it means ω²=4π²/T² and we plug that in:

r³=G*(M/(4π²/T²)), and finally we take the third root to get r:

r=∛{(G*M*T²)/(4π²)}=4.226*10^7 m= 42 260 km which is the height of a geostationary satellite.
