Explanation:
When an electromagnetic wave passes through the interface between two mediums, it undergoes refraction, which means that it bents and its speed and its wavelength change.
In particular, the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave in a certain medium is related to the index of refraction of the medium by:
where
is the wavelength in a vacuum (air is a good approximation of vacuum)
n is the refractive index of the medium
In this problem:
is the original wavelength of the wave
n = 1.47 is the index of refraction of corn oil
Therefore, the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave in corn oil is:
Answer:
A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using the lens equation:
where
q is the distance of the image from the lens
f is the focal length
p is the distance of the object from the lens
In this problem, we have
(the focal length is negative for a diverging lens)
is the distance of the object from the lens
Solvign the equation for q, we find
And the sign (negative) means the image is on the left of the lens, because it is a virtual image, so the correct answer is
A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens
