The speed of light in a material is given by:
v= \frac{c}{n}
where
c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light in vacuum
n is the refractive index of the material

The lens in this problem has a refractive index of n=1.50, therefore the speed of light in the lens is
v= \frac{c}{n}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.50}=2 \cdot 10^8 m/s

And the correct answer is C).

You are driving to the grocery store at 14 m/s. You are 115 m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. Assume that
kogti [31]

Answer:

111.5 m

Explanation:

Given that You are driving to the grocery store at 14 m/s. You are 115 m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. Assume that your reaction time is 0.50 s and that your car brakes with constant acceleration. 

Use first equation of motion

V = U - at

Since the car is going to rest, V = 0 and a = negative

0 = 14 - a × 0.5

0.5a = 14

a = 14 /0.5

a = 28 m/s^2

Let us use second equation of motion

S = Ut - 1/2at^2

S = 14 × 0.5 - 0.5 × 28 × 0.5^2

S = 7 - 3.5

S = 3.5 m

115 - 3.5 = 111.5

Therefore, you are 111.5 metres from the intersection (in m) when you begin to apply the brakes.

How does the circuit change when the wire is added? a closed circuit occurs and makes all bulbs turn off. an open circuit occurs
Vitek1552 [10]

The circuit change when a wire is added is, an open circuit occurs and makes all bulbs turn off.

<h3>What is a closed circuit?</h3>

A closed circuit is a type of circuit connection in which the wire connection is complete and current flow occurs, turning the light bulbs on in the process.

<h3>What is an open circuit?</h3>

An open circuit is a type of circuit connection in which the wire connection is incomplete and current cannot flow, turning off the light bulbs.

Thus, the circuit change when the wire is added is, an open circuit occurs and makes all bulbs turn off.

Como surgiu a capoeira?
xz_007 [3.2K]
La capoeira se desarrolló en Brasil, derivada de las tradiciones traídas a través del Océano Atlántico por africanos esclavizados y alimentadas por el ardiente deseo de libertad. Pronto se practicó ampliamente en las plantaciones como un medio para romper los lazos de la esclavitud, tanto física como mentalmente.

A lamp is rated for 240v,2.5A.what is the cost of using the lamp for 3hrs if 1kWh of electricity cost #12​
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

≈ 22¢

Explanation:

240 / 1000 = 0.240 kV

0.240 kV(2.5 A)(3 hr) = 1.8 kW•hr

1.8 kW•hr($0.12/kW•hr) = $0.216
