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

A 6.3 g bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 596.2 m/s. what constant force is exerted on the bullet while it is
ivanzaharov [21]
<span>anwser will be 

F = ma

where 

F = force exerted on the bullet 
m = mass of the bullet = 5 gm (given) = 0.005 kg. 
a = acceleration of the bullet 

Substituting appropriately, 

F = 0.005a --- call this Equation 1 

Next working equation is 

Vf^2 - Vo^2 = 2as 

where 

Vf = velocity of the bullet as it leaves the muzzle = 326 m/sec (given) 
Vo = initial velocity of bullet = 0 
a = acceleration of bullet 
s = length of the rifle's barrel 

Substituting appropriately, 

326^2 - 0 = 2(a)(0.83) 

a = 64,022 m/sec^2 

the anwser will be
Substituting this into Equation 1, 

F = 0.005(64,022) 

F =320.11 Newtons 

Hope this helps. </span><span>

Practice 1. A car travels 600 m in 30 s. what is its average speed? Why is its actual speed usually different from its average s
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

hi is

Explanation:

Ans. (1) For preparing vaccines, in olden days,microbes were injected in the bodies of horses ormonkeys. These laboratory animals used to makeantibodies to defend these microbes. Antibodies areproteins which can act against the disease-causinggerms. These antibodies were extracted from theblood of these animals and were used as vaccines.(2) Now-a-days with the advent of biotechnology,the vaccines are manufactured in laboratories withthe help of bacteria. For this purpose, a detailedstudy of the disease causing germ is undertaken.The genes and the DNA of such microbes arethoroughly explored. Then based on thisinformation, proteins which can act against suchmicrobes are synthetically prepared in thelaboratories. The safe vaccine is produced in such away which can defend the body against infections.3) Some types of vaccines are prepared from theextracts of germs. These germs or microbes aredeactivated and made dormant. When they areinjected in the body of a person, they initiate thedefending action. The body of such vaccinatedperson, already develops the antibodies in his or herbody. When in future, this person is again attackedby similar germs the defence starts immediately andthe person does not become sick.

What is the speed of a commercial jet which travels form New York to Los Angeles (4800) in 6 hours
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Speed = 800km}/hr

Explanation:

Given

Distance = 4800km

Time = 6hr

Required

Determine the speed of the jet

The speed is calculated as:

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Substitute 4800 km for Distance and 6hr for Time

Speed = \frac{4800km}{6hr}

Speed = 800km}/hr

<em>Hence, the speed of the commercial jet is 800km/hr</em>

Floor lamps usually have a base with large inertia, while the long body and top have much less inertia. Part A If you want to sh
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

When a an object is been rotated its resistance capacity to that rotational force is know as rotational inertia  and this mathematically given as

          I = mr^2

   Where m is the mass

                r is the rotation radius

For the spinning of the lamp as a baton to work the location of the center of mass of the floor lamp needs to be located

This is more likely to be located closer to base of the lamp as compared to the top, so success of spinning a floor lamp like a baton is highly likely if the lamp is grabbed closer to the base because that is where the position of its center of mass is likely to be.
