Define refractive index.

levacccp [35]

The refractive index of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how fast light travels through the material. It is defined as n={\frac {c}{v}}, where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v is the phase velocity of light in the medium.

the ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to its velocity in a specified medium.

A 2.0-kg laptop sits on the horizontal surface of the seat of a car moving at 8.0 m/s. The driver starts slowing down to stop. F

Answer: $32.65\ m$

Explanation:

Given

mass of laptop m=2 kg

The velocity of car u=8 m/s

The coefficient of static friction is $\mu_s=0.4$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k=0.2$

As the car is moving, so the coefficient of kinetic friction comes into play

deceleration offered by friction $\mu_kg=0.2\times 9.8\ m/s^2$

Using the equation of motion $v^2-u^2=2as\\$

insert the values

$0^2-8^2=2(-0.2\times 9.8)s\\\\s=\dfrac{64}{1.96}\\\\s=32.65\ m$

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

$\frac{t_1}{t_2} = \frac{sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}$

Explanation:

The vertical component of the initial velocities are

$v_v = v_0sin\theta$

If we ignore air resistance, and let g = -9.81 m/s2. The the time it takes for the projectiles to travel, vertically speaking, can be calculated in the following motion equation

$v_vt - gt^2/2 = s = 0$
