Korolek [52]

Answer:

rotating movement on itself, it creates the phenomenon of day and night.

Explanation:

When a body that rotates around a star (translational movement), rotates on itself (rotational movement), the light from the star cannot reach the opposite part of the object, so at these points it is NIGHT and when in the rotation movement the point is in front of the star it is DAY.

Therefore, in rotating movement on itself, it creates the phenomenon of day and night.

Heather and Matthew take 45 s to walk eastward along a straight road to a store 72 m away. What is their average velocity?

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

v = 1.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, d = 72 m

Time taken, t = 45 s

We need to find their average velocity. Average velocity of an object is given by total distance divided by total time taken.

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{72\ m}{45\ s}\\\\v=1.6\ m/s$

So, their average velocity is 1.6 m/s.

Light of wavelength λ travels through a medium with an index of refraction n1before striking a thin film with an index of refrac

ra1l [238]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C

A light that transmits through n₂ travels t distance before reflection off the n₁ medium and again travels distance t before reaching the point from where it entered n₂ medium. Hence it travels 2 t distance more than the light that is reflected off n₂.

It( light entering n₂) also travels an additional distance equal to, half of the wavelength, when reflected off n₁ ( as n₁ is greater than n₂).

Wavelength in n₂ is = $\dfrac{\lambda}{n_2}$

Hence, path length difference = $2t +\dfrac{\lambda}{2 n_2}$
