A 20 kg dog runs at + 2.5 m/s and collides with a 10 kg piece of on a frozen lake. After the collision we know that the 20 kg dog was moving - 2 m/s BACKWARDS, and the ice was moving the same way as the dog at - 5.0 m/s How fast AND in which direction was the piece of ice moving BEFORE the collision?

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.
