If the oil thickness is 200 nm and the index is 1.5, what (vacuum) wavelength (in nm) does a diver see looking at the same posit

Answer: 133.33nm

Explanation: refractive index, n = real depth/apparent depth

Oil thickness= real depth = 200nm

Wavelength from under the water = apparent depth = a

n = real depth/a

1.5 = 200/ a

a = 200/ 1.5

a = 133.33nm

grigory [225]

Answer:

The only incorrect statement is from student B

Explanation:

The planet mercury has a period of revolution of 58.7 Earth days and a rotation period around the sun of 87 days 23 ha, approximately 88 Earth days.

Let's examine student claims using these rotation periods

Student A. The time for 4 turns around the sun is

           t = 4 88

           t = 352 / 58.7 Earth days

In this time I make as many rotations on itself each one with a time to = 58.7 Earth days

           #_rotaciones = t / to

           #_rotations = 352 / 58.7

           #_rotations = 6

therefore this statement is TRUE

student B. the planet rotates 6 times around the Sun

          t = 6 88

          t = 528 s

The number of rotations on itself is

           #_rotaciones = t / to

           #_rotations = 528 / 58.7

           #_rotations = 9

False, turn 9 times

Student C. 8 turns around the sun

           t = 8 88

           t = 704 days

the number of turns on itself is

            #_rotaciones = t / to

            #_rotations = 704 / 58.7

            #_rotations = 12

True

The only incorrect statement is from student B

a student in your class says "electromagnetic waves can travel through outer space but mechanical waves can’t.” is it this stude
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Right

Explanation:

electromagnetic waves can travel through space (a vacuum) because it doesn't need a medium and its particles to propagate whereas a mechanical wave needs a medium to propagate. For example sound is a mechanical wave, sound vibrates off a mediums particles to propagate and for sound to be heard and travel

amid [387]

a.) the belief that stars and planets revolve around the earth

Explanation:

The geocentric model of stars and planets is the belief that stars and planets revolves around the earth.

The model places the earth at the center of the system.

  • Geo - earth ; centric - center
  • This was the original school of thought about the way the earth relates to other bodies in the universe.
  • This model was replaced by the heliocentric universe in which stars are at the center and the planets revolves round them.
  • The idea was put forward by Nicola Copernicus
