Answer: London dispersion forces (i.e LDF), also known loosely Van dear Waals forces.

Explanation: The London dispersion forces is named after the German - American physicist called Fritz London.

The London dispersion forces describes the interaction between two atoms A and B after London discovered the "quantum mechanical theory".

London dispersion theory is similar to the quantum mechanical theory of "light dispersion", that is why it is called "dispersion effect". In Physics,dispersion can be explained as the variation of a quantity with frequency, which is the fluctuation of the electrons in the case of the London dispersion.

Answer:

The correct answer is D)

Explanation:

When an electric magnet is brought near a cord with an electric current, the cord will most likely deflect away from the magnet because electric fields flowing through a wire generates its own magnetic field.

Two identical horizontal sheets of glass have a thin film of air of thickness t between them. The glass has refractive index 1.4

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

the wavelength λ of the light when it is traveling in air = 560 nm

the smallest thickness t of the air film = 140 nm

Explanation:

From the question; the path difference is Δx = 2t (since the condition of the phase difference in the maxima and minima gets interchanged)

Now for constructive interference;

Δx= $(m+ \frac{1}{2} \lambda)$

replacing ;

Δx = 2t ; we have:

2t = $(m+ \frac{1}{2} \lambda)$

Given that thickness t = 700 nm

Then

2× 700 = $(m+ \frac{1}{2} \lambda)$ --- equation (1)

For thickness t = 980 nm that is next to constructive interference

2× 980 = $(m+ \frac{1}{2} \lambda)$ ----- equation (2)

Equating the difference of equation (2) and equation (1); we have:'

λ = (2 × 980) - ( 2× 700 )

λ = 1960 - 1400

λ = 560 nm

Thus; the wavelength λ of the light when it is traveling in air = 560 nm

For the smallest thickness $t_{min} ; \ \ \ m =0$

∴ $2t_{min} =\frac{\lambda}{2}$

$t_{min} =\frac{\lambda}{4}$

$t_{min} =\frac{560}{4}$

$t_{min} =140 \ \ nm$

Thus, the smallest thickness t of the air film = 140 nm

A thin soap bubble of index of refraction 1.33 is viewed with light of wavelength 550.0nm and appears very bright. Predict a pos

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The possible thickness of the soap bubble = $1.034\times 10^{-7}\ m.$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Refractive index of the soap bubble, $\mu=1.33.$
Wavelength of the light taken, $\lambda = 550.0\ nm = 550.0\times 10^{-9}\ m.$

Let the thickness of the soap bubble be $t$ .

It is given that the soap bubble appears very bright, it means, there is a constructive interference takes place.

For the constructive interference of light through a thin film ( soap bubble), the condition of constructive interference is given as:

$2\mu t=\left ( m+\dfrac 12 \right )\lambda.$

where $m$ is the order of constructive interference.

Since the soap bubble is appearing very bright, the order should be 0, as $0^{th}$ order interference has maximum intensity.

Thus,

$2\mu t=\left (0+\dfrac 12\right )\lambda\\t=\dfrac{\lambda}{4\mu}\\\ \ = \dfrac{550\times 10^{-9}}{4\times 1.33}\\\ \ = 1.034\times 10^{-7}\ m.$

It is the possible thickness of the soap bubble.
