Answer:

Volume of given mass of gas is inversely proportional to pressure of gas

Explanation:

Boyle's law: It states that the volume of given mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of gas at constant temperature.

Mathematical representation:

Suppose, a gas of mass m

T=Constant temperature

V=Volume of gas

P=Pressure of gas

Then, $V\propto\frac{1}{P}$

The speed of light in vacuum is exactly 299,792,458 m/s. A beam of light has a wavelength of 651 nm in vacuum. This light propag

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

$v=2.58\times10^8m/s$

Explanation:

The index of refraction is equal to the speed of light c in vacuum divided by its speed v in a substance, or $n=\frac{c}{v}$ . For our case we want to use $v=\frac{c}{n}$ , which for our values is equal to:

$v=\frac{c}{n}=\frac{299792458m/s}{1.16}=258441774.138m/s$

Which we will express with 3 significant figures (since a product or quotient must contain the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the least number of significant figures):

$v=2.58\times10^8m/s$

What are electrons and how are they involved in creating and electric current?

Artist 52 [7]

Electrons are a stable sub atomic particle that has a negative charge and is found in all atoms and is the main carrier of electricity through solids.

In a metal, some of the electrons can escape from the atoms and are free to move around inside the metal. These electrons are referred to as 'conduction electrons'.

A current is a flow of charge. In metal a current is the flow of the conduction electrons through the metal. This can occur when connected to battery for example: The battery pumps the conduction electrons around the circuit.

Your study buddy claims that an electron always experiences a force in an electric field, but not always in a magnetic field. do

timurjin [86]

It's true charged particles are always acted on by an electric field.when the velocity of the electron is parallel to the magnetic field, the magnetic force vanishes.
