Answer:

The  thickness is   t = 1.415 *10^{-7 } \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The wavelength is  \lambda  =  566 \ nm  =  566 *10^{-9} \ m

     The  index of refraction of glass is  n_g  =  1.71

     The index of refraction of the coating is  n=  1.46

Generally the condition for destructive interference is  

         2 t = (m  +  \frac{1}{2} ) *  \frac{\lambda }{n }

Here m is the order of the interference pattern and given from the question that we are considering minimizing  reflection  m = 0

t = thickness of the coating

substituting values

         2 t = (0  +  \frac{1}{2} ) *  \frac{ 566 *10^{-9}}{ 1.46 }

    =>    t = 1.415 *10^{-7 } \  m

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind. (a) if it takes the bird 20.0 min to travel 6.00 km relative t
enot [183]

Here we will the speed of seagull which is v = 9 m/s

this is the speed of seagull when there is no effect of wind on it

now in part a)

if effect of wind is in opposite direction then it travels 6 km in 20 min

so the average speed is given by the ratio of total distance and total time

v_{avg} = \frac{6000}{20*60}

v_{avg} = 5m/s

now since effect of wind is in opposite direction then we can say

V_{net} = v_{bird} - v_{wind}

5 = 9 - v_{wind}

v_{wind}= 4 m/s

Part b)

now if bird travels in the same direction of wind then we will have

v_{net}= v_{bird} + v_{wind}

v_{net} = 9 + 4 = 13 m/s

now we can find the time to go back

time = \frac{distance}{speed}

time = \frac{6000}{13}

time = 7.7 minutes

Part c)

Total time of round trip when wind is present

T = t_1 + t_2

T = 20 + 7.7 = 27.7 min

now when there is no wind total time is given by

T = \frac{6000}{9} + \frac{6000}{9}

T = 22.22 min

So due to wind time will be more

Calculate the change in total internal energy for a system that releases 2.59 × 104 kJ of heat and does 6.46 × 104 kJ of work on
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The equation to use for this is the following:

dU = q + w

As the heat is being release, this value is negative, and same here happens with the work done, because it's in the surroundings.

Therefore the change in the energy would be:

dU = -2.59x10^4 - 6.46^4

dU = -9.05x10^4 kJ

masha68 [24]

Answer:

2. Wavelength

Explanation:

When a photon collides with an electron and is deflected, the photon’s wavelength decreases.

When photon gained energy by the collision of the electron. Its energy and frequency will be increased and its wavelength will be decreased.
