Compared to the wavelength of incident light, diffuse reflection occurs when the size of surface irregularities is?

1 answer:

5 0

Compared to the wavelength of the incident light, diffuse reflection occurs when the size of surface irregularities is comparable to the size of the wavelength of the light.

The distance between the two crests or troughs of the light wave is known as the wavelength of light. Using the Greek letter lambda 'λ', it is identified. As a result, wavelength refers to the separation between one wave's crest or dip and the following wave.

In contrast to specular reflection, diffuse reflection involves the reflection of light, other waves, or particles off a surface so that rays incident on the surface are scattered at a variety of angles.

Answer:

h=2.86m

Explanation:

In order to give a quick response to this exercise we will use the equations of conservation of kinetic and potential energy, the equation is given by,

$\Delta PE_i + \Delta KE_i = \Delta PE_f +\Delta KE_f$

There is no kinetic energy in the initial state, nor potential energy in the end,

$mgh+0=0+KE_f$

In the final kinetic energy, the energy contributed by the Inertia must be considered, as well,

$mgh = (\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2)$

The inertia of the bodies is given by the equation,

$I=\frac{m(R_1^2+R^2_2)}{2}$

$I=\frac{2(0.2^2+0.1^2)}{2}$

$I=0.05Kgm^2$

On the other hand the angular velocity is given by

$\omega =\frac{v}{R_2}=\frac{4}{1/5} = 2rad/s$

Replacing these values in the equation,

$(0.5)(9.8)(h) =\frac{1}{2}*0.5*4^2+\frac{1}{2}*0.05*20^2$

Solving for h,

$h=2.86m$
