(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?

If the man on the left pulls on the object with a force of 500 N and the man on the right pulls on the object with a force of 75

Igoryamba

Force is a vector quantity
so pulling from opposite side will be negative
so
750+(-500)= 250N
C is the right answer
becauseause the man on the right applies greater force.

A certain car battery with a 12.0 V emf has an initial charge of 131 A · h. Assuming that the potential across the terminals sta

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The battery can supply 130 W for 11.75 h

Explanation:

In order to discover the time in wich the battery can supply this energy we need to find how much current is being drawn from it, we do that by using the equation for real power that is P = V*I, since we have V and P we can solve for I as seen bellow:

I = P/V = 130/12 = 10.834 A

We can use this value to find how many hours the power can supply said current. We do that by dividing the current capacity of the battery by the current drawn:

t = 141/12 = 11.75 h
