below

Explanation:

refractive index = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

light travels at a speed of 3.0 x 10^8 m/s in vacuum

refractive index = 3.0 x 10^8 / 2.0 x 10^8

refractive index = 1.5

In order for an object to have kinetic energy it must have a mass and a ?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of the body is defined as the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy.

E = P.E + K.E

The potential energy of a body is due to the height from the surface of the earth.

P.E = mgh

The kinetic energy of the is possessed by the body due to the virtue of its motion,

K.E = ½ mv²

If there is no velocity associated with the body, there is no K.E in the body.

The Orion nebula is one of the brightest diffuse nebulae in the sky (look for it in the winter, just below the three bright star

Oxana [17]

Answer:

T=183.21K

Explanation:

We have to take into account that the system is a ideal gas. Hence, we have the expression

$PV=nRT$

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, T is the temperature and R is the ideal gas constant.

Thus, it is necessary to calculate n and V

V is the volume of a sphere

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi (5.9*10^{15}m)^3=8.602*10^{47}m^3$

V=8.86*10^{50}L

and for n

$n=\frac{(4000M_s)/(2*mH)}{6.022*10^{23}mol^{-1}}=3.95*10^{36}mol$

Hence, we have (1 Pa = 9.85*10^{-9}atm)

$T=\frac{PV}{nR}=\frac{(6.8*10^{-9}*9.85*10^{-6}atm)(8.86*10^{50}L)}{(0.0820\frac{atm*L}{mol*K})(3.95*10^{36}mol)}\\\\T=183.21K$

hope this helps!!

Why must we be careful when measuring current with a DMM?

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

DMM should be placed in the series combination with the circuit.

Explanation:

DMM is the digital multi meter. It can measure the voltage, current and resistance at a time.

While measuring the current with the DMM you must be ensure that the DMM should be connected with the circuit in series combination. So that it will give the resultant current accurately.

While measuring the voltage the observer should check the open probes.

The magnitude of a vector can never be less than the magnitude of one of its components. Group of answer choices True False

pogonyaev

Answer:

True

Explanation:

As the formula for magnitude of a vector v and their components $v_1, v_2, v_3, v_4,..., v_n$ is

$v^2 = v_1^2 + v_2^2 + ... +v_n^2$

Since $v_1^2, v_2^2, v_3^2, v_4^2,..., v_n^2 \geq 0$ , this means the sum of them, $v^2$ , is always greater or equal to $v_1^2, v_2^2, v_3^2, v_4^2,..., v_n^2$

In the formula used to solve problems related to the first law of thermodynamics what does Q represent?

KonstantinChe [14]

The heat Q(in) supplied to the system in one stage of the cycle, minus the heat Q(out) removed from it in another stage of the cycle; plus the work added to the system W(in) equals the work that leaves the system W(out)
