The speed of light in diamond is 1.24  108m/s. What is the index of refraction of diamond?

Question 2

You could determine the index of refraction for visible light of a dark but reflective medium such as black glass by measuring the
 a. angles of incidence and refraction.
  b. angle of reflection for an arbitrary angle of incidence.
  c. angle at which reflected light is completely polarized.
  d. smallest angle at which X-ray diffraction occurs in the glass.
  e. smallest angle at which diffraction occurs for visible light when a diffraction pattern is scratched onto the surface.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.

A good example of polar molecules can be understood when trying to make a cake. If water and oil are required, they will not mix together. If you put them into a measuring cup, the oil will rise to the top while the water remains on the bottom.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
