Answer:

\boxed{Air}

Explanation:

<em>Light travels faster in the air than in glass because glass has a higher refractive index than air.</em>

<em>glass is solid and more packed than air, so the light will have more space and less resistance in the air to travel than in glass.</em>

A 4.0-cm tall light bulb is placed at distance of 8.3 cm from a concave mirror having a focal length of 15.2 cm. Determine the i
scoundrel [369]

Answer: the image distance is -18, 28 cm this means behind of the concave mirror. The image size is 2.2 higher that the original  so it has 8.8 cm with the same orientation as original  and it is a virtual imagen.

Explanation: In order to sove the imagen formation for a concave mirror we have to use the following equation:

1/p+1/q=1/f  where p and q represents the distance to the mirror  for the object and imagen, respectively. f is the focal length for the concave mirror.

replacing the values we obtain:

1/8.3+1/q=1/15.2

so 1/q=(1/15.2)-(1/8.3)=-54.7*10^-3

then q=-18.28 cm

The magnification is given by M=-q/p=-(-18,28)/8.3= 2.2

We also add a picture to see the imagen formation for this case.
