The ratio of the speed of light v in a medium to the speed of light in a vacuum c is called its Refractive Index n
v/c=n
Different substances have different Refractive Indices (plural of Index). Values are always bigger than 1.
Refractive index of water is 1.33
Refractive index of glass is about 1.4
Answer:
h = 0.0259 m
Explanation:
given,
diameter of the cone = 0.0208 m
radius,r = 0.0104 m
angle of inclination,θ = 18°
initial angular velocity, ω_i = 56 rad/s
final angular velocity ,ω_f = 0 rad/s
height, h = ?
Rotational kinetic energy

Moment of inertia of coin

so,

Transnational Kinetic energy

v = r ω

now,
using conservation energy
Kinetic energy of the coin is converted into the potential energy
KE_r + KE_t = PE



h = 0.0259 m
Vertical height gain by the coin is equal to 0.0259 m
Answer:
F = 2074.13 lb
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of car, m = 2800 lb = 1270.059 kg
Initial speed, u = 5 mi/h = 2.2352 m/s
Final speed, v = - 1.5 mi/h = -0.67056 m/s (in opposite direction)
Time, t = 0.4 s
We need to find the magnitude of the average horizontal force (lb) exerted on the car during the impact. It can be calculated as :

or
F = -2074.13 lb
So, the required force is 2074.13 lb.
The resolution of a microscope is the distance with the shortest measurement between two different points given a specimen with the premise that it can still be seen clearly or distinguished by the one looking through the microscope. It can be calculate from the ratio of the wavelength of the light and twice the numerical aperture or the refractive index of the lens. Most of the microscopes have a numerical aperture ranging from 1.2 to 1.4. Resolution and the numerical aperture are indirectly proportional so that as the aperture increases the resolution would decrease. We calculate as follows:
<span>Resolution = wavelength / ((2) (numerical aperture))
Resolution = 500 nm / (2 ) ( 1.25) = 200 nm = 0.2 um</span>
1. Radio waves are generated by a transmitter and detected by a reciever. The reciever then encodes the radio wave into information to transport into your radio. You may have listened to either AM or FM radio.
2. Cell phones creates up and down sounds with the microphone. The microchip inside the phone turns those up and down sounds into numbers, and sends it off to the cell tower. The cell tower processes those numbers and sends it off to the phone you are trying to call.
3. The television service delivers programming to viewers by relaying information to communications satellites that can be found orbiting the earth. The satellite receiver decodes the programming to the viewer’s TV.
