Soap bubbles can display impressive colors, which are the result of the enhanced reflection of light of particular wavelengths f
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

the minimum wall thickness that will enhance the reflection of light is 146.9 nm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

At the first interface, a phase shift occurs as the incident light is in air that has less refractive index compare to the thin film of soap bubble.

At the second interface, no shift occurs,

condition for constructive interference;

t = ( m + 1/2) × λ/2n

where m = 0, 1, 2, 3 . . . . . .

now, the condition for the constructive interference;

t = mλ/2n

where t is the thickness of the soap bubble,  λ is the wavelength of light and n is the refractive index of soap bubble.

so the minimum thickness of the film which will enhance reflection of light will be;

t_{min =  ( m + 1/2) × λ/2n

we substitute

t_{min =  ( 0 + 1/2) × 711 /2(1.21)

t_{min = 0.5 × 711/2.42

t_{min = 0.5 × 293.80165

t_{min = 146.9 nm

Therefore,  the minimum wall thickness that will enhance the reflection of light is 146.9 nm

A car accelerates at a constant rate of 3 m/s2 for 5 seconds. If it reaches a velocity of 27 m/s, what was its initial velocity?
Kaylis [27]

The initial velocity of a car that accelerates at a constant rate of 3m/s² for 5 seconds is 12m/s.

CALCULATE INITIAL VELOCITY:

The initial velocity of the car can be calculated by using one of the equation of motion as follows:

V = u + at

Where;

  • V = final velocity (m/s)
  • u = initial velocity (m/s)
  • a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)
  • t = time (s)

According to this question, a car accelerates at a constant rate of 3 m/s² for 5 seconds. If it reaches a velocity of 27 m/s, its initial velocity is calculated as follows:

u = v - at

u = 27 - 3(5)

u = 27 - 15

u = 12m/s.

Therefore, the initial velocity of a car that accelerates at a constant rate of 3m/s² for 5 seconds is 12m/s.

Someone please help with this
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

<em>The new force is 2/3 of the original force</em>

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law </u>

The electrical force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Written as a formula:

\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where:

k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2

q1, q2 = the objects' charge

d= The distance between the objects

Suppose the first charge is doubled (2q1) and the second charge is one-third of the original charge (q2/3). Now the force is:

\displaystyle F'=k\frac{2q_1*q_2/3}{d^2}

Factoring out 2/3:

\displaystyle F'=\frac{2}{3}k\frac{q_1*q_2}{d^2}

Substituting the original force:

F'=\frac{2}{3}F

The new force is 2/3 of the original force

Which of the following scenarios would be optimal for obtaining a date from radioactive decay using these isotopes: 87Rb, 147Sm,
REY [17]

Answer:

a) 238U, 40K and 87Rb, b)   235U and to a lesser extent 40K , c)  he 235U,

d) possibility is 14C , e)this period would be ideal for 14C , f) 14C should be used since it is the one with the least average life time, even though the measurements must be very careful

Explanation:

One of the applications of radioactive decay is the dating of different systems.

To do this, the quantity of radioactive material in a meter is determined and with the average life time, the time of the sample is found.

Let's write the half-life times of the given materials

87Rb T ½ = 4.75 1010 years

147Sm T ½ = 1.06 1011 years

235U = 7,038 108 years

238U = 4.47 109 years

40K = 1,248 109 years

14C = 5,568 103 years

we already have the half-life of the different elements given

a) meteors. As these decomposed in the formation of the solar system, their life time is around 3 109 to 5 109 years, so it is necessary to look for elements that have a life time of this order, among the candidates we have 238U, 40K and 87Rb if these elements were at the moment of the formation of these meteors, there must still be rations in them, instead elements 14C already completely adequate

b) rock. The formation period is 4.20-108 years, therefore one of the most promising elements is 235U and to a lesser extent 40K since it is more abundant in rocks. The other elements with higher life times have not decayed and therefore will not give a true value and the 14C is completely decayed

c) volcanic ash. Formation time 6107 years, the only element that has the possibility of having a count is the 235U, the others have a life time so long that they have not decayed and the 14C is complete, unbent

d) scarp of an earthquake formation time 5 101 years, The only one that has any possibility is 14C even when it has declined very little, all the others, you have time to long that has not decayed

e) INCA excavation. The time of this civilization is about 10000 to 500 years (104 to 5 102 years), we see that this period would be ideal for 14C since it has some period of cementation, the others have not decayed

f) Tree in Blepharitis. 14C should be used since it is the one with the least average life time, even though the measurements must be very careful because of a period of disintegration. We have such a long time that they have not decayed
