<span>Light travels Slower in a material with a higher index of refraction.
because </span><span>Water has a higher index of refraction than air and it travels slower (bends) in water
high index mean slow travel
hope it helps</span>
v = x/t
v = average velocity, x = displacement, t = elapsed time
Given values:
x = 6km south, t = 60min
Plug in and solve for v:
v = 6/60
v = 0.1km/min south
Answer: sheet of charge
Explanation:
a )
Since the charge is negative , potential will be negative near it . At a far point potential will be less negative. So potential will virtually increase on going away from the sheet . At infinity it will become almost zero. Electric field will be towards the plate , so potential will decrease towards the plate.
b ) The shape of equi -potential surface will be plane parallel to the sheet of charge because electric field will be perpendicular to the sheet of charge and almost uniform near the sheet of charge. The equi- potential surface is always perpendicular to electric field.
C ) Electric field which is almost uniform near the sheet of charge is equal t the following
E = σ / ε₀ where σ is charge density of surface and ε₀ is permittivity of medium whose value is 8.85 x 10⁻¹²
E = 3 x 10⁻⁹ / 8.85 x 10⁻¹²
= .3389 x 10³
= 338.9 V / m
spacing between 1 V
= 1 / 338.9 m
= 2.95 X 10⁻3 m
= 2.95 mm.
Answer:
option (b)
Explanation:
Let the resistance of each resistor is R.
In series combination,
The effective resistance is Rs.
rs = r + R + R + .... + n times = NR
Let V be the source of potential difference.
Power in series
Ps = v^2 / Rs = V^2 / NR ..... (1)
In parallel combination
the effective resistance is Rp
1 / Rp = 1 / R + 1 / R + .... + N times
1 / Rp = N / R
Rp = R / N
Power is parallel
Rp = v^2 / Rp = N V^2 / R ..... (2)
Divide equation (1) by equation (2) we get
Ps / Pp = 1 / N^2
