Inessa [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The value is n = 1.081

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The speed of in a vacuum is c = 3.0 *10^{8} \  m/s

    The speed of light in the material is  v  =  c -0.075c = 0.925 c =  0.925 * 3.0*10^{8}  = 2.775 *10^{8} \ m/s

   Generally the reflection of the material is mathematically represented as

             n = \frac{c}{v}

=>    n = \frac{3.0*10^{8}}{2.775 *10^{8}}

=>    n = 1.081

Fill in the table below with the properties of acids and bases.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

1) Acids have a sour taste , Bases have a bitter taste.

2) Acids turn blue litmus paper into red , Bases turn red litmus paper into blue.

3) Acids react with most metals to form Hydrogen gas but only a few base react with a few metals to form Hydrogen gas

4) Both will conduct electricity. Both acids & bases are good electrolytes. Strong acids & bases conduct more electricity than that of weak acids & bases

A mass of 0.54 kg attached to a vertical spring stretches the spring 36 cm from its original equilibrium position. The accelerat
UNO [17]
<h2>Spring constant is 14.72 N/m</h2>

Explanation:

We have for a spring

            Force =  Spring constant x Elongation

            F = kx

Here force is weight of mass

           F = W = mg = 0.54 x 9.81 = 5.3 N

Elongation, x  = 36 cm = 0.36 m

Substituting

           F = kx

           5.3 = k x 0.36

             k = 14.72 N/m

Spring constant is 14.72 N/m

Action and reaction force always cancel each other. <br><br> True or False.
polet [3.4K]
False. They have same magnitude and opposite direction but they never cancel as each of them does the action on the other body, and for the forces to cancel out they need to act ob the same body.

Hope this helps!

notka56 [123]
Between 9:00 am and 10:45 am, there have been 1 hour and 45 minutes or 1.75 hours have passed. Let x be the speed of the slower cyclist and x+ 5 be the rate of the second cyclist. The given situation is best represented through the equation below,
                                 x(1.75) + (x + 5)(1.75) = 47.25 km
The value of x from the equation is 11. Thus, the two bicyclists' rates are 11 km/h and 16 km/h.

The gravitational attraction between two masses of 3kg that are separated by a distance of 1cm is
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

6.003×10¯⁶ N

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 1 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

1 cm = 1 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

1 cm = 0.01 m

Finally, we shall determine the gravitational attraction. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass 1 (M₁) = 3 Kg

Mass 2 (M₂) = 3 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 0.01 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force of attraction (F) =?

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 3 × / 0.01²

F = 6.003×10¯¹⁰ / 1×10¯⁴

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ N

Thus the gravitational attraction is 6.003×10¯⁶ N
