Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel through. They can travel through empty space or matter.
Answer:
the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy
Answer:
Explanation:
This is case of interference in thin films
for constructive interference in thin film the condition is
2μ t = (2n+1)λ/2 ; μ is refractive index of oil , t is thickness of oil , λ is wave length of light .
2 x 1.28 x t = λ/2 , if n = 0
2 x 1.28 x t = 605 /2
t = 118.16 nm .
the minimum non-zero thickness of the oil film required = 118.16 nm.
Answer:
We would not be able to make our way around the earth's surface, to read, to sculpt or to create technology because we cannot see!
Explanation:
The minimum angular separation that can be distinguished by an eye gives the angular resolution of the eye.
Given that the Angular resolution with infrared radiation is =
equal to 
This resolution is very much greater than that of the eye 
The angular resolution that our eyes can see is about
at arms length
Angular resolution of infrared =
at arms length
We therefore cannot read, sculpt or create technology because we cannot see.
The type of medium affects a sound wave as sound travels with the help of the vibration in particles. As different mediums have different amount and size of particles, for example, the speed of sound is faster through solid than liquid as solids have closely packed particles whereas liquids are loosely packed. Therefore the vibration is quicker in solids than liquids.
Hope it helps you! :)
