One meter is equal 1x10^6 micrometers so 70micrometer/10^(6)micrometer = 7x10^(-5) meters or .00007 meters

When light passes through an object unchanged, scientists call that process _____.

Nataly [62]

Answer:

When light passes through an object unchanged, scientists call that process Transmission.

Explanation:

Transmission is the process where all the light that is passed through the material moves via the material without being absorbed. The Transmission depends on the affected radiation.The Transmittance of the medium is defined as the ratio between transmitted radiant power and incident radiant power. The light that is passed through the medium and not reflected will be either scattered or reflected. The light can be transmitted only through transparent or translucent material. Opaque object does not allows transmission of light.

Describe two experiments to determine the speed of propagation of a transverse wave on a rope. You have the following tools to u

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

Tools: $stopwatch, \ meter \ stick, \ mass \ measuring \ scale , \ force \ measuring \ device$ .

$Experiment \ 1$ :Calculate the speed of the wave using the time, $t$ it takes to travel along the rope. Rope's length, $L$ is measured using the meter stick.

-Attach one end of rope to a wall or post, shake from the unfixed end to generate a pulse. Measure the the time it takes for the pulse to reach the wall once it starts traveling using the stopwatch.

-Speed of the pulse can then be obtained as:

$v=\frac{L}{t}$

$Experiment \ 2$ : Apply force of known value to the rope then use the following relation equation to find the speed of a pulse that travels on the rope.
