Answer:

n_l = 1.97

Explanation:

given data:

refractive index of lens 1.50

focal length in air is 30 cm

focal length in water is -188 cm

Focal length of lens is given as

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_2 -n_1}{n_1} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -n_{air}}{n_{air}} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -1}{1} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

focal length of lens in liquid is

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -n_{l}}{n_{l}} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

                =\frac{n_{g} -n_{l}}{n_{l}}  [\frac{1}{(n_{g} - 1) f}

rearrange fron_l

n_l = \frac{n_g f_l}{f_l+f(n_g-1)}

n_l = \frac{1.50*(-188)}{-188 + 30(1.50 -1)}

n_l = 1.97

hellow. first the answer is *not* the one reported by the author. second, you made a mistake in writing the fraction with the refraction coefficients: the numerator is (n_medium-n_glass)/(n_medium) that is (x-1,5)/1,5 // in this case the answer comes correct: n_medium=1,63

Which atomic model was proposed as a result of j. J. Thomson’s work?
EleoNora [17]
<h2>Answer: The "raising pudding" atomic model</h2>

Explanation:

<u>During the 19th century the accepted atomic model, was Dalton's atomic model</u>, which postulated the atom was an <u>"individible and indestructible mass".</u>

However, at the end of 19th century J.J. Thomson began experimenting with cathode ray tubes and found out that atoms contain small subatomic particles with a negative charge (later called <u>electrons</u>).  This meant the atom was not indivisible as Dalton proposed. So, Thomson developed a new atomic model.

Taking into consideration that at that time there was still no evidence of the atom nucleus, Thomson thought the electrons (with negative charge) were immersed in the atom of positive charge that counteracted the negative charge of the electrons. <u>Just like the raisins embedded in a pudding or bread. </u>

That is why this model was called the <u>raisin pudding atomic model.</u>

A 1 000-V battery, a 3 000-Ω resistor, and a 0.50-μF capacitor are connected in series with a switch. The time constant for such
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The current in the circuit at a time interval of τ seconds after the switch has been closed is 0.123 A

Explanation:

The time constant for an R and C in series circuit is given by τ = RC.

R = 3000 ohms, C = 0.5 × 10⁻⁶ F = 5.0 × 10⁻⁷ F

τ = 3000 × 5 × 10⁻⁷ = 0.015 s

The voltage across a capacitor as it charges is given be

V(t) = Vs (1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ)

where k = 1/τ

At the point when t = τ, the expassion becomes

V(t = τ) = 1000 (1 - e⁻¹) = 0.632 × 1000 = 632 V

Current flows as a result of potential difference,.

Current in the circuit at this time t =  τ is given by

I = (Vs - Vc)/R

Vs = source voltage = 1000 V

Vc = Voltage across the capacitor = 632 V

R = 3000 ohms

I = (1000 - 632)/3000 = 0.123 A

Light is incident from air on the surface of a glass slab, which has an index of refraction of 2.5 In the air the light beam mak
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

13.26°

Explanation:

Using Snell's law as:

n_i\times {sin\theta_i}={n_r}\times{sin\theta_r}

Where,  

{\theta_i}  is the angle of incidence  ( 35.0° )

{\theta_r} is the angle of refraction  ( ? )

{n_r} is the refractive index of the refraction medium  (glass, n=2.5)

{n_i} is the refractive index of the incidence medium (air, n=1)

Hence,  

1\times {sin35.0^0}={2.5}\times{sin\theta_r}

Angle of refraction= sin⁻¹ 0.2294 = 13.26°.

<u>13.26° is the angle of the beam with the normal in the glass.</u>
