A thin film of oil of thickness t is floating on water. The oil has index of refraction no = 1.4. There is air above the oil. Wh

en viewed from the air in the direction normal to the surface, there is constructive interference of reflected red light with l = 675 nm. Find the minimum thickness t of the oil film that will give constructive interference of reflected light with l = 675 nm.

Answer:

t = 120.5 nm

Explanation:

given,    

refractive index of the oil = 1.4

wavelength of the red light = 675 nm

minimum thickness of film = ?

formula used for the constructive interference

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

where n is the refractive index of oil

t is thickness of film

for minimum thickness

m = 0

2 \times 1.4 \times t = (0+\dfrac{1}{2})\times 675

t = \dfrac{0.5\times 675}{2\times 1.4}

        t = 120.5 nm

hence, the thickness of the oil is t = 120.5 nm

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time. The velocity of the first airplane is 750 m/h at a heading of 51.3°. The veloci
abruzzese [7]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

In 2.4 hours, the distance traveled by the first airplane heading a 51.3° at 750 mph is 
a = 750*2.4 = 1800 miles.

The second airplane travels
b = 620*2.4 = 1488 mile

The angle between the two airplanes is
163° - 51.3° = 111.7°

Let c =  the distance between the two airplanes after 2.4 hours.
From the Law of Cosines, obtain
c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos(111.7°)
    = 3.24 x 10⁶ + 2.2141 x 10⁶
c = 2335.41 miles

Answer: 2335.4 miles

Explain how surface and subsurface events are integral parts of the rock cycle.
vagabundo [1.1K]
Example of surface events are erosion and weathering. Erosion is the carrying of a particle from one place to the other and weathering is the breaking down of particles. These processes help in rock formation because this allows physical changes (grouping together or breaking down) on a certain substance. Subsurface events are those which happened underground such as the flow of underground water which subsequently allow the deposition of minerals, etc.

The specific heat capacity of sea water is 4100 J/Kg°C and the boiling point of 100.6 °C. (i) Calculate the energy required to r
maw [93]

Answer:

334.314 (kJ)

Explanation:

1) the formula for the required energy is: Q=c*m(Bp-t), where c - 4100 J/kg*C; m - 0.9 kg; Bp - 100.6 C; t - 10 C.

2) according to the formula above:

Q=4100*0.9*(100.6-10)=41*9*906=334314 (J).
