Answer:

f1 / f2 = n2 / n1  

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we should remember that the formula for index of refraction is defined as:

n = c / v

or

n v = c

Where,

n = index of refraction

c = speed of light

v = speed of light in the medium

Since speed of light is constant, then we can simply equate the materials 1 and 2:

n1 v1 = n2 v2

Where the speed of light in the medium (v) can be expressed as:

v = w * f

Where,

w = wavelength of light

f = frequency of light

Therefore substituting this back into the relating equation:

n1  w1 f1 = n1  w2 f1

Since it is given that the light is monochromatic, w1 = w2, this further simplifies the equation to:

n1 f1 = n2 f2

f1 / f2 = n2 / n1                  (ANSWER)

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

If it is totally absorbed pressure is calculated as follows .

Pressure = I / c where I is intensity of light falling .

= 1000 / 3 x 10⁸

= 3.33 x 10⁻⁶ N / m²

b ) weight of tritium atom

=  3 x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

acceleration = force / mass

=    3.33x 10⁻⁶ / 3 x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷

= .6646 x 10²¹ m /s²

= 66.46 x 10¹⁹ m / s²

Softa [21]

Answer:

The axial region of the body consists of the bones of the head, trunk of a vertebrate, skull, vertebral column, and thoracic cage. The human skeleton consists of 80 bones.

Explanation:

The axial region of the body consists of the bones of the head, trunk of a vertebrate, skull, vertebral column, and thoracic cage. The human skeleton consists of 80 bones.

It is composed of the following six parts:

1. Skull (22 bones)

2. Ossicles of the middle ear

3. Hyoid bone

4. Rib cage

5. Sternum

6. Vertebral column

The axial region of the body forms the vertical axis of the body as the axial skeleton supports the head, neck, back, and chest.
