What is speed of light in crown glass?
german

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 car and a lorry are about to collide. When they collide the two vehicles become tightly locked together. The lorry is going at
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The speed of the vehicles immediately after the collision is 5.84 m/s.

Explanation:

The speed of the vehicles after the collision can be found by conservation of linear momentum:

p_{i} = p_{f}

m_{1}v_{1_{i}} + m_{2}v_{2_{i}} = m_{1}v_{1_{f}} + m_{2}v_{2_{f}}

Where:

m₁: is the mass of the car = 0.5 ton = 500 kg

m₂: is the mass of the lorry = 9.5 ton = 9500 kg

v_{1_{i}}: is the initial speed of the car = 40 km/h = 11.11 m/s

v_{2_{i}}: is the initial speed of the lorry = 20 km/h = 5.56 m/s

v_{1_{f}}: is the final speed of the car =?

v_{2_{f}}: is the final speed of the lorry =?    

Since the two vehicles become tightly locked together after the collision v_{1_{f}} = v_{2_{f}}:

m_{1}v_{1_{i}} + m_{2}v_{2_{i}} = v(m_{1} + m_{2})

v = \frac{m_{1}v_{1_{i}} + m_{2}v_{2_{i}}}{m_{1} + m_{2}} = \frac{500 kg*11.11 m/s + 9500 kg*5.56 m/s}{500 kg + 9500 kg} = 5.84 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the vehicles immediately after the collision is 5.84 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

if the Earth's core provides the heat that drives plate tectonics, then what will eventually happen as the Earth's core cools do
Eduardwww [97]
If the Earth's core cools down, then one of the first things that would happen is that plate tectonic activity would slow down. Over time, the Earth would then dry up into this ball of dry soil because the heat of the Earth's core drives water up to the surface. Since the crust would be void of majority of liquid, it would shrink by an unknown amount.

Which statement best explains why an object weight less on mercury than it does on earth
larisa [96]
This is because planet weigh different amount and force of gravity is different from planet to planet for example if your weigh on earth is 100 pound than on mercury is only 78 pounds

What was the initial speed of a car if its speed is 40 m/s after 5 seconds of
Monica [59]
We use the formula:
V= u + at

V- final velocity. U- intial velocity. A- acceleration. T- time

Note: velocity is speed in this question

Fill in values:
V= u + at
40= u + 4 x 5
40= u + 20
40 - 20 = u
u = 20m/s
