Clarify the concept of refrection index with example​

Physics
1 answer:
Degger [83]3 years ago
3 0
The refractive index is used to measure how much light bends as it goes from one medium to another the refractive index of air =1 as light doesn’t bend in it

When looking into a glass of water with a straw the straw may appear bent or morphed as the water has a different refractive index to air (and the light is passing from air to glass of water)

A resistor has four colored stripes in the following order: orange, orange, brown and silver. What is the resistance of the resi
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Resistance =330 Ω

Tolerance = 33 Ω

Explanation:

see attached resistor color code table

The first stripe is orange, which means the leftmost digit is a 3.

The second stripe is orange , which means the next digit is a 3.

The third stripe is brown.  Since brown is 1, it means add one zero to the right of the first two digits.

The resistance is:

orange-orange-brown=  330 Ω

The tolerance is:

The fourth color band indicates the resistor's tolerance.  Tolerance is the percentage of error in the resistor's resistance.

silver is 10%

A 330 Ω resistor has a silver tolerance band.  

<em>Tolerance = value of resistor x value of tolerance band </em>

= 330 Ω x 10% = 33 Ω

330 Ω stated resistance +/- 33 Ω tolerance means that the resistor could range in actual value from as much as 363 Ω to as little as 297 Ω.

Which of the following properties of water help to explain why icebergs float in the ocean?
crimeas [40]
The reason why icebergs float in the ocean has to do with temperature. Icebergs are colder than the ocean water and therefore the cold water is less dense than the warm water and this causes the Iceberg to float.
