you are given an unknown liquid and asked to help identify it by finding its index of refraction. you shine a laser beam so that

it first passes through glass and then through the liquid. the light crosses the interface from the glass with 1.60 refractive index to the liquid at an incident angle of 40 . the refracted angle of the light in the liquid is 55 . what is the refractive index of the liquid

Answer:

Explanation:

The refractive index of liquid with respect to glass =  sin of Angle of incidence in glass / (sin of angle of refraction in liquid )

The refractive index of liquid with respect to glass = sin 40 / sin 55

refractive index of liquid / refractive index of glass = sin 40 / sin 55

refractive index of liquid / 1.60 = sin 40 / sin 55

refractive index of liquid = 1.6 x sin40 / sin 55

= 1.6 x .642 / .819

= 1.254 .

Which of the following is a way that science and the economy interact
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

You didn't add the choices but I'll add some ideas anyway.

Explanation:

Let's start with perhaps the most obvious impact of science on the economy: technology. Scientific discoveries lead to the development of new technologies, which then enter into international markets as highly desirable products.

While humans have always traded technologies, the relationship between technological development and economic growth really dates back to the Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries. This was the first time that products were being produced on a massive scale, and it was new technologies in steam engines that allowed this to happen.

As people produced more goods, they developed more complex networks of economic exchange across the world. In fact, our modern ideas about free-market economies and capitalism actually date back to this same time period.

Our modern technologies and our modern economies developed simultaneously. We couldn't have one without the other. Today the United States' economy is very largely dependent on the exportation of communications and digital technologies. Its place in the global economy is not defined by its agriculture or raw products, but by its technologies.

Clearly distinguish between mass, weight, and volume.
USPshnik [31]

The mass tells you the amount of matter or substance that makes up an object.

The weight tells you the measure of the matter.

The volume tells you the amount of space/size taken up

How does the electric force between two charged particles change if particle's charge is reduced by a factor of 3?
MAVERICK [17]

The force between two charges is proportional to the product of the charges.

If only one of the charges is reduced by a factor of 3, then the force is reduced by a factor of 3.

If both charges are reduced by a factor of 3, then the force is reduced by a factor of 9.
