Look at the velocity versus time graph below. What is the magnitude of the displacement of the object after it travels for three seconds? A. 14 m
B. 10 m
C. 12 m
D. 16 m

C. 12m

Explanation:

from the graph v = 4m/s and t = 3 s

d = vt = 4 × 3 = 12 m

speed of light in vacuum is 300,000 km/s

speed of light in other mediums is given by the expression v = c/n, where c is the speed of light in vacuum and n is the refractive index of medium.

for the first medium v = 200,000 km/s

  so, refractive index of medium = 300000/200000 = 1.5

    1.5 refractive index is usually for glass. so first medium is glass.

for the second medium v = 250,00 km/s

so, refractive index of medium = 300000/250000 = 1.2

    1.2 refractive index is usually for water. so second medium is water.

for the third medium v = 0 km/s

so, refractive index of medium = 300000/0 = ∞

    ∞ refractive index is usually for opaque mediums. so third medium is opaque medium.
