The index of refraction of a material is the ratio between the speed of light in vacuum, c, and the speed of light in that material, v:
n= \frac{c}{v}
where the speed of light in vacuum is c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s. The speed of light in benzene is v=2.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s, so we can use the previous relationship to find the refractive index of benzene:
n= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{2.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s}=1.5

A proton (1.6726 ? 10-27 kg) and a neutron (1.6749 ? 10-27 kg) at rest combine to form a deuteron, the nucleus of deuterium or "
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the deuteron = mass of the proton + mass of the neutron + mass equivalent of the energy of 2.2 Mev evolved.

I amu = 931 Mev

2.2 Mev = 2.2 / 931 amu

= ( 2.2 / 931 )x 1.6726 x 10⁻²⁷

= .00395 x 10⁻²⁷

The mass of the deuteron  =( 1.6726 + 1.6749 +  .00395)x 10⁻²⁷ kg

= 3.35145 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

b ) Momentum of gamma ray

= h / λ ( h is plank's constant and λ is wavelength of gamma ray )

= hυ / υλ       (  υ is frequency of gamma ray )

= E / c  ( E is energy of photon and c is velocity o light )

= 2.2 x 10⁶ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  J / 3 x 10⁸

= 1.173 x 10⁻²¹ Kg m /s

This will be the momentum of deuteron also

Kinetic energy

= p² / 2m ( p is momentum and m is mass of deuteron )

= ( 1.173 x 10⁻²¹ )² / ( 2 x 3.35145 x 10⁻²⁷)

= 1.376 x ⁻¹⁵ J

Energy of gamma ray

= 2.2 x 10⁶ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  J

= 3.52 x 10⁻¹³ J

So kinetic energy of deuteron is smaller than energy of gamma ray photon .

Which statement is not a good practice when working inside a computer case?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

a. be sure to hold expansion cards by the edge connectors

Explanation:

Removal of loose jewelry is a good safety practice. Also not touching a microchip with a magnetized screwdriver is also a good practice.

But holding expansion cards by the edge connectors is not a good practice, so it is the odd one in the question. Therefore answer option a provides the correct and best answer to the question

a partially inflated weather balloon has a volume of 1.56 * 10^3 L and a pressure of 98.9 lPa. What is the volume of the balloon
e-lub [12.9K]
To solve the problem, we enumerate all the given first. Then the required and lastly the solution.

Given:

V1= 1.56x10^3 L = 1560 L                P2 = 44.1 kPa
P1 = 98.9 kPa

Required:  V2

Solution:

Assuming the gas is ideal. Ideal gas follows Boyle's Law which states that at a given temperature the product of pressure and volume of a gas is constant. In equation,

PV = k

Applying to the problem, we have
 
P1*V1 = P2*V2
(98.9 kPa)*(1560 L) = (44.1 kPa)*V2
V2 = 3498.5 L

<em>ANSWER: V2 = 3498.5 L</em>
