Calculate the minimum thickness (in nm) of an oil slick on water that appears blue when illuminated by white light perpendicular
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

Explanation:

The relation between the wavelength in a particular medium and refractive index \lambda_n = \frac{ \lambda }{n}

where ;

\lambda = wavelength of the light in vacuum

n = refractive index of medium with respect to vacuum

For one phase change :

2t = \frac{\lambda_n}{2}\\\\where \ \lambda_n = \frac{\lambda}{n}\\\\Then \ \\\\2t = \frac{\lambda}{2n}\\\\t = \frac{\lambda_n}{4n}

Replacing 1.43 for n and 480 nm for λ; we have:

t = \frac{480}{4(1.43)}

t = 83.92 nm

Thus; the minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

A 160.-kilogram space vehicle is traveling along a
mario62 [17]

If the object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, then that's
the definition of zero acceleration.  It can only happen when the sum of
all forces (the 'net' force) on the object is zero.

And it doesn't matter what the object's mass is.  That argument is true
for specks of dust, battleships, rocks, stars, rock-stars, planets, and
everything in between.

How long will the ball be in the air if the cliff is 120 m tall and the ball falls to the base of the cliff?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

4.95s≈5s

Use equation :

h=G*t²/2

h=120m ----hight of cliff

G=9.81m/s²

t=?

-----------------------

h=G*t²/2

120m=9.81m/s²*t²/2

240m=9.81m/s²*t²

t²=240m/ 9.81m/s²

t²=24.46s

t=√24.46s²

t=4.95 s≈5s
