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

An asteroid orbiting the Sun has a mass of 4.00×1016 kg. At a particular instant, it experiences a gravitational force of 3.14×1
Ksivusya [100]
<h2>The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun</h2>

Explanation:

We have gravitational force

                 F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

           Where G =  6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

                       M = Mass of body 1

                       M = Mass of body 2

                       r = Distance between them

Here we have

                 M = Mass of Sun = 1.99×10³⁰ kg

                 m = Mass of asteroid = 4.00×10¹⁶ kg

                 F = 3.14×10¹³ N

Substituting

                   F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\\3.14\times 10^{13}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}\times 4\times 10^{16}}{r^2}\\\\r=4.11\times 10^{11}m

The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun
