We wish to coat flat glass (n = 1.50) with a transparent material (n = 1.20) so that reflection of light at wavelength 529 nm is

eliminated by interference. what minimum thickness can the coating have to do this?

For full destruction of the wavelength,
2t = y/2

t = thickness of the coating material
y = wavelength in the coating material

But;
y = y_a/n; where y_a is wavelength in air

Substituting;
y = 529/1.2 = 440.83 nm

Then,
t = y/4 = 440.83.4 = 110.21 nm

Therefore, thickness of the coating material should be 110.21 nm.

A 2.6 kg mass attached to a light string rotates on a horizontal,
Ainat [17]

The maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is 2.27 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>maximum mass the string can support before breaking, m = 17.9 kg</em>
  • <em>radius of the circle, r = 0.525 m</em>

The maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is calculated as follows;

T = ma_c\\\\Mg = \frac{Mv^2}{r} \\\\v^2 = rg\\\\v = \sqrt{rg} \\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{0.525 \times 9.8} \\\\v_{max} = 2.27 \ m/s

Thus, the maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is 2.27 m/s.

How does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
Vesnalui [34]
Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.

A swimmer is capable of swimming 0.42 m/s in still water. part a if she aims her body directly across a 66-m-wide river whose cu
satela [25.4K]
<span>If the swimmer is swimming perpendicular to the current, it will take her 66m / 0.42 m/s = 157.14 seconds to cross the river. At the same time, the current will be taking her downstream at a rate of 0.32 m/s. So, when she reaches the opposite bank, her total downstream distance traveled will have been 0.32*157.14 = 50.28 meters.</span>
