Answer:

The right solution is "165.8 nm".

Explanation:

Given:

Index of refraction,

n = 1.81

Wavelength,

λ = 600 nm

We know that,

⇒ t=\frac{\lambda}{2\times n}

By putting the values, we get

      =\frac{600}{2\times 1.81}

      =165.8 \ nm

Two cars leave towns 680 kilometers apart at the same time and travel toward each other. one car's rate is 10 kilometers per hou
Evgen [1.6K]

D = distance between the cars at the start of time = 680 km

v₁ = speed of one car

v₂ = speed of other car = v₁ - 10

t = time taken to meet = 4 h

distance traveled by one car in time "t" + distance traveled by other car in time "t" = D

v₁ t + v₂ t = D

(v₁ + v₂) t = D

inserting the values

(v₁ + v₁ - 10) (4) = 680

v₁ = 90 km/h

rate of slower car is given as

v₂ = v₁ - 10

v₂ = 90 - 10 = 80 km/h

A chemical reaction takes place in which energy is absorbed. Arrange the characteristics of the reaction in order from start to
Ira Lisetskai [31]
<h2>Answer</h2>

It will be single step endothermic reaction.

<h2>Expalantion</h2>

In the endothermic reaction, the reactants come together to convert to products by absorbing the heat from the external source. This reaction is explained is also known as one step reaction as reactants meet to get the transition stage and converts to the product. But in some reactions, the activation energy required to activate the reactants to get the transition stage to form products. For this, the reaction will have the steps as activation energy, reactant meet, transition stage and products form.
