Answer:

Explanation:

octet rule: Atoms lose, gain, or share electrons in order to have a full valence shell of eight electrons. Hydrogen is an exception because it can hold a maximum of two electrons in its valence level.

An athlete is working out in the weight room. He steadily holds 50 kilograms above his head for 10 seconds. Which statement is t

postnew [5]

Answer:

A. The athlete isn’t doing any work because he doesn’t move the weight.

Explanation:

We must remember the definition of work, which says that work is equal to the product of mass by the distance displaced. In this case, the athlete only does work when he lifts the weight from the ground to the point where he holds the weight suspended.

So when he's holding the weight, he doesn't do any work.

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

$4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m$

Explanation:

When an electromagnetic wave passes through the interface between two mediums, it undergoes refraction, which means that it bents and its speed and its wavelength change.

In particular, the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave in a certain medium is related to the index of refraction of the medium by:

$\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}$

where

$\lambda_0$ is the wavelength in a vacuum (air is a good approximation of vacuum)

n is the refractive index of the medium

In this problem:

$\lambda_0 = 5.89\cdot 10^{-7} m$ is the original wavelength of the wave

n = 1.47 is the index of refraction of corn oil

Therefore, the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave in corn oil is:

$\lambda=\frac{5.89\cdot 10^{-7}}{1.47}=4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m$
