Why are fibers birefringent

Chemistry
2 answers:
DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago

Answer:

Because of the chemical makeup of the fiber.

Explanation:

The birefringence is the difference between the refractive index of a fiber in a direction at parallel to the fiber axis and in a direction at right angles. It is caused by asymmetric core shape for the two axes, and majorly one of the manufacturing imperfections. It helps in controlling polarization property inside the fiber.

Inevitable manufacturing imperfections in optical fiber leads to birefringence, which is one cause of pulse broadening in fiber-optic communications. Such imperfections can be geometrical (lack of circular symmetry), due to stress applied to the optical fiber and/or due to bending of the fiber.

Question 23 (5 points)
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

λ = 6.25 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

x-ray

General Formulas and Concepts:

Speed of Light = Wavelength times Frequency

  • c = λν

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

C = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

ν  = 4.80 × 10¹⁷ Hz (s⁻¹)

λ = unknown

<u>Step 2: Solve for wavelength</u>

3.0 × 10⁸ m/s = λ(4.80 × 10¹⁷ Hz)

λ = 6.25 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules.</em>

6.25 has 3 sig figs. No changes necessary.

<u>Step 4: Identify</u>

6.25 × 10⁻¹⁰ m is in the x-ray spectrum according the the Electromagnetic Spectrum

What element has a total of 3 p-sublevel electrons?
den301095 [7]

Elements with three p-electrons....


That would be N, P, As, Sb, and Bi -- elements in group 15


For example, energy diagram showing "empty" orbitals up through the 3p.

.....3p __ __ __

3s __

.....2p __ __ __

2s __

1s __


Energy diagram of phosphorous showing three unpaired electrons in 3p-sublevel

.....3p ↑_ ↑_ ↑_

3s ↑↓

.....2p ↑↓ ↑↓ ↑↓

2s ↑↓

1s ↑↓


According to Hund's rule, the electrons singly occupy the p-orbitals, and all have the same spin.

Urgent 25 points!!
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

A. Yes, Amanda find the number of moles of NaCl correctly.

B. 0.73 M.

Explanation:

<em>A. Did Amanda find the number of moles of NaCl correctly? If not, explain. </em>

  • Yes, Amanda find the number of moles of NaCl correctly.
  • The relation to find the no. of moles of NaCl is:

<em>No. of moles (n) of NaCl = mass/molar mass.</em>

mass of NaCl = 32.0 g, molar mass of NaCl = 58.45 g/mol.

∴ No. of moles (n) of NaCl = mass/molar mass = (32.0 g)/(58.45 g/mol) = (32.0 g NaCl)*(1 mol of NaCl)/(58.45 g NaCl) = 0.547 mol ≅ 0.55 mol.

<em>B. What does Amanda need to do next to calculate the molarity of the NaCl solution? Show your work for full credit.</em>

<em></em>

  • Molarity is the no. of moles of solute dissolved in a 1.0 liter of a solution.

∴ M = (no. of moles of NaCl)/(volume of solution (L)) = (0.55 mol)/(0.75 L) = 0.73 M.

17.5 mL of canola oil has the density of 16.1 grams what is the density in g/ml
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

<h2>0.92 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question we have

mass = 16.1 g

volume = 17.5 mL

density =  \frac{16.1}{17.5}  = 0.92 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.92 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
