(a) The labelled diagram is shown.

(b) The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. Refractive index of diamond is the ratio of the speed of light in air to the speed of light in diamond.i.e.,

μ=

Speedoflightindiamond

Speedoflightinair

and, the ratio of these velocities is 2.42. i.e., This means that the speed of light in diamond will reduce by a factor of 2.42 as compared to its speed in air. In other words, the speed of light in diamond is

1/2.42

times the speed of light in vacuum.

Explanation:

a) Draw and label the diagram given :

(i) Incident ray

(ii) Refracted ray

(iii) Emergent ray

(iv) Angle of reflection

(v) Angle of deviation

(v) Angle of emergence

(b) The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. What is the meaning of this statement in relation to speed of light?

How much of the matter in the universe is comprised of atoms?

Deffense [45]

Explanation:

Atoms are the components of ordinary matter, also called baryonic matter, which only represents 4% of the universe, while the remaining 96% would be formed by what is known as dark matter and dark energy which constitute two of the unsolved problems in physics.

Which embedded molecule in the cell membrane moves large molecules into and out of the cell?

Nezavi [6.7K]

The correct answer is A.

The cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. Sometimes molecules are just too big to easily flow across the plasma membrane or dissolve in the water so that they can be filtered through the cell membrane. In these cases , the cells must put out a little energy to help get molecules in and out of the cell.

The proteins embedded in the plasma membrane form channels through which other molecules can pass. Some proteins act as carriers, that is they are 'paid" in energy to let a molecule attach to itself and then transport that molecule inside the cell. This is called active transport.

A ball having a mass of 0.20 kilograms is placed at a height of 3.25 meters. If it is dropped from this height, what will be the

asambeis [7]

EC_1 + EP_1 = EC2 + EP_2

EC_2 = 0

EC_2 = EP_1 - EP_2

EC_2 = mg(H_1 - H_2) = 0.20 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * (3.25 m - 1.5m) = 3.43 J
