What is speed of light in crown glass?

Physics
1 answer:
german3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1.97 x 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

refractive index of crown glass with respect to air, n = 1.52

speed of light in air, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Let v be the speed of light in crown glass.

By use of the definition of refractive index

n = \frac{c}{v}

where, n be the refractive index of crown glass, c be the speed of light in vacuum and v be the speed of light in crown glass

1.52 = \frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{v}

v = \frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{1.52}

v = 1.97 x 10^8 m/s

Thus, the speed of light in crown glass is 1.97 x 10^8 m/s.

A 3.0-kg cart is rolling across a frictionless, horizontal track toward a 1.3-kg cart that is held initially at rest. The carts
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Momentum of first cart = mass x velocity

= 3 x 4.6 =+13.8 kg m /s

Momentum of second cart = 1.3 x - 1.9 = - 2.47 kg m /s

Total momentum = 13.8 - 2.47

= +11.33 kg m /s

b )

Let the velocity of first cart be v at the moment when second cart was at rest

total momentum = 3 x v + 0 = 3 v

Applying conservation of momentum law

3 v  = +11.33

v = +3.77 m /s

Convert 7.93 lbs into grams. Hint: 1 kg = 2.2 lbs
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

7.93 lbs is equal to 3596.987 grams.

Explanation:

The weight in grams is equal to the pounds multiplied by 453.59237.

So... you would multiply 7.93 by 453.59237.

7.93 x 453.59237 = 3596.987

Hope that helped!

The position of a car at time t is given by the function p(t)=t2 2t−4. What is the velocity when p(t)=11? assume t≥0
AysviL [449]

The velocity when function p(t)=11 is 8 .

According to the question

The position of a car at time t  represented by function :

p(t)=t^{2} +2t-4

Now,

When  function p(t) = 11 , t will be

p(t)=t^{2} +2t-4

11 = t²+2t-4

0 = t² + 2t - 15

or

t² +2t-15 = 0

t² +(5-3)t-15 = 0

t² +5t-3t-15 = 0

t(t+5)-3(t+5) = 0

(t-3)(t+5) = 0  

t = 3 , -5  

as t cannot be -ve as given ( t≥0)

so,

t = 3

Now,

the velocity when p(t)=11

As we know velocity = \frac{position}{time}

therefore to get the value of velocity from  function p(t)

we have to differentiate the function with respect to time

\frac{d(p(t))}{dt} =\frac{d}{dt} (t^{2} +2t-4)

v(t) = 2t + 2  

where v(t) = velocity at that time

as t = 3 for  p(t)=11  

so ,

v(t) = 2t + 2  

v(t) = 2*3 + 2  

v(t) = 8

Hence, the velocity when function p(t)=11 is 8 .
