Q4. What is the speed of light in a block of glass that has an Index of refraction of 1.11?

Physics

Refractive index(n)= speed of light in vacuum/ speed of light in medium.
Since refractive index is 1.11, and usually we know that the speed of light is 300,000km/s, simply divide 300,000km/s over 1.11. That is, 270,270.2703 when simply rounding, its 270,270 km/s.

zvonat [6]

oof, that question is difficult! i would say its d because if you pull a slingshot farther than another one, it would have more potential energy.

What latitudes are most likely to see glaciers??  
olga55 [171]

Answer : Option D) 90°N and 90°S

Explanation : The latitudes which are given in the options are the angle to be measured in the direction of north and south respectively taking equator as the central line.

When it is 90°N and 90°S it means it forms an right angle and faces towards north and south respectively with respect to the equator, so there are high chances of pointing towards the Arctic and Antarctic regions respectively; therefore giving greater probability of finding glaciers.

Compare the magnitude of the electromagnetic and gravitational force between two electrons separated by a distance of 2.00 m. As
Lesechka [4]
First you need to know about two laws, which are:
1) Coulomb's law
2) Newton's law of gravitation

1.
According to Coulomb's law, Electric force between TWO charges is:
F_{e} =  \frac{k*q_{1}*q_{2}}{r^{2}} -- (A)

Where, k = 1/(4*π*epsilon_not) = 9 * 10^{9} \frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}

Both q_{1} and q_{2} = -1.61 x 10^{-19} C
r = Distance between the two charges = 2.00m

Plug-in the above values in (A), you would get:

F_{e} = (9 * 10^{9} ) (1.61 * 10^{-19}  * 1.61 * 10^{-19}) / (2*2)  

F_{e} = 5.83* 10^{-29} N

2.
According to Newton's law of gravitation:
F_{g} =  \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}} -- (B)

Where G = Gravitational constant = 6.674 * 10^{-11} m^{2} kg^{-1}s^{-2}

m1 = m2 = Mass of the electron = 9.11 * 10^{-31} kg
r = 2.0 m

Plug-in the above values in (B), you would get:

F_{g} = (6.674 * 10^{-11}) ( 9.11 * 10^{-31}  *  9.11 * 10^{-31}}[/tex]) / (2*2)  

F_{e} = 5.83* 10^{-29} N

F_{e} = 1.38 * 10^{-71} N

Now do Fe over Fg, you would get:
\frac{F_{e}}{F{g}}  = 4.23 * 10^{42}

Ans: So the blanks are:
1) 5.82
2) 1.38
3) 4.23

Suppose a log's mass is 5kg. After burning, the mass of the ash is 1 kg. Explain what could have happened to the other 4kg.
snow_lady [41]
Mass never just disappears. The other 4kg had to go somewhere. It could have left the scene of the fire in the form of smoke particles and hot gases.
