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 component that allows a car to execute complex maneuvers is __________ .
Charra [1.4K]
The anti-lock braking system (ABS) is a car component that enables the driver to execute complex maneuvers. Furthermore, it allows shifting the position of your car when driving on highways because of its ability to "maintain traction." It also can decrease the kinetic energy of your car when you want to make it decelerated.

Two parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.2 mm. What charge must be transferred from one plate to the
Gnoma [55]

Answer: 55.52 *10^-6 C= 55.52 μC

Explanation: In order to solve this question we have to take into account the following expressions:

potential energy stired in a capacitor is given by:

U=Q^2/(2*C)  where Q and C are the charge and capacitance of the capacitor.

then we have:

Q^2= 2*C*U=

C=εo*A/d where A and d are the area and separation of the parallel plates capacitor

Q^2=2*εo*A*U/d=2*8.85*10^-12*1.9*10^-5*11*10^3/(1.2*10^-3)=

=55.52 *10^-6C

Physics conversion <br> Convert 300 cm/min^2 into m/s^2 <br> Please give a thorough explanation!
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

8.33×10⁻⁴ m/s²

Explanation:

There are 100 cm in 1 m, and 60 s in 1 min.

300 cm/min² × (1 m / 100 cm) × (1 min / 60 s)² = 8.33×10⁻⁴ m/s²

zzz [600]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.

When the the forward speed of the hurricanes and tropical storms slows down they tend to increase the rainfall. Because of the slow movement the storm can be for few days over a given region and produce rainfall without stopping, thus create major flooding, pilling up of the coastal water, and produce persistent strong winds even though they have decreased in their forward speed.
