A scientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different colors reflecting off the surf
Sati [7]

Answer:

a) The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm

b) the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm

Explanation:  

Given the data in the question;

a) The index of refraction of the oil is 1.20. What is the minimum thickness of the oil slick at that spot?

t_{min = λ/2n

given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and  index of refraction of the oil n = 1.20

we substitute

t_{min = 750 / 2(1.20)

t_{min = 750 / 2.4

t_{min = 312.5 ≈ 313 nm

Therefore, The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm

b)

Suppose the oil had an index of refraction of 1.50. What would the minimum thickness be now?

minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot will be;

t_{min = λ/4n

given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and  index of refraction of the oil n = 1.50

we substitute

t_{min = 750 / 4(1.50)

t_{min = 750 / 6

t_{min = 125 nm

Therefore, the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm

In the diagram below, a heavy box is being lifted. What is the function of the pulley in this situation?
zepelin [54]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The function of the pulley in this situation is to change the direction of the input force. <span> The </span>pulley<span> simply turns a force in one direction into a force in another direction. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

The number line shows the starting and ending velocities for ball 1. What’s the change in velocity of ball 1? Calculate the valu
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The starting velocity for ball 1 is 1.00 meter/second. Its ending velocity is 0.25 meter/second.

The change in velocity for ball 1 is 0.25 – 1.00 = -0.75 meter/seconds

Transmission Lines and Health. Currents in dc transmission lines can be 100 A or higher. Some people are concerned that the elec
Blababa [14]

Calculate the magnetic field strength at the ground. Treat the transmission line as infinitely long. The magnetic field strength is then given by:

B = μ₀I/(2πr)

B = magnetic field strength, μ₀ = magnetic constant, I = current, r = distance from line

Given values:

μ₀ = 4π×10⁻⁷H/m, I = 170A, r = 8.0m

Plug in and solve for B:

B = 4π×10⁻⁷(170)/(2π(8.0))

B = 4.25×10⁻⁶T

The earth's magnetic field strength is 0.50G or 5.0×10⁻⁵T. Calculate the ratio of the line's magnetic field strength to earth's magnetic field strength:

4.25×10⁻⁶/(5.0×10⁻⁵)

= 0.085

= 8.5%

The transmission line's magnetic field strength is 8.5% of that of earth's natural magnetic field. This is no cause for worry.

michael kicks a ball at an angle if 36* horizontal. its initial velocity is 46 m/s. Find the maximum height it can reach, total
MAVERICK [17]

(a) At its maximum height, the ball's vertical velocity is 0. Recall that

{v_y}^2-{v_{0y}}^2=2a_y\Delta y

Then at the maximum height \Delta y=y_{\mathrm{max}}, we have

-\left(\left(46\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin36^\circ\right)^2=2\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)y_{\mathrm{max}}

\implies y_{\mathrm{max}}=37\,\mathrm m

(b) The time the ball spends in the air is twice the time it takes for the ball to reach its maximum height. The ball's vertical velocity is

v_y=v_{0y}+a_yt

and at its maximum height, v_y=0 so that

0=\left(46\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin36^\circ+\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t

\implies t=2.8\,\mathrm s

which would mean the ball spends a total of about 5.6 seconds in the air.

(c) The ball's horizontal position in the air is given by

x=v_{0x}t

so that after 5.6 seconds, it will have traversed a displacement of

x=\left(46\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\cos36^\circ(5.6\,\mathrm s)

\implies x=180\,\mathrm m
