Answer:

The minimum thickness of the soap bubble for destructive interference to occur is 225.56 nm.

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of light, λ = 600 nm

The minimum thickness of the soap bubble for destructive interference to occur is given by;

$t = \frac{\lambda/n}{2}\\\\t = \frac{\lambda}{2n}$

where;

n is refractive index of soap film = 1.33

$t = \frac{\lambda}{2n} \\\\t = \frac{600*10^{-9}}{2(1.33)}\\\\t = 2.2556 *10^{-7} \ m\\\\t = 225.56 *10^{-9} \ m\\\\t = 225.56 \ nm$

Therefore, the minimum thickness of the soap bubble for destructive interference to occur is 225.56 nm.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The frequency of the piano string is 1059 Hz.

Explanation:

The frequency beat (fb), 2 beats/second, is the absolute difference between the frequency of the tuning fork (1056 Hz) and the frequency of the piano string.

As the piano string gets tightened, the frequency beat becomes 3 beats/second.

Therefore,

fb = $fb = fpiano - ftuning fork\\ 3 Hz=fpiano-1056Hz\\ fpiano=1056Hz+3Hz\\ fpiano=1059Hz$

Tarzan (who has mass 80.0 kg) is running across the jungle floor with speed 7.00 m/s as

Lesechka [4]

We are given:

Mass of Tarzan before swinging = 80 kg

Mass of Tarzan when swinging = 80 + 15 = 95 kg

Velocity of Tarzan = 7 m/s

The height of the rock Tarzan's monkey is sitting on = 3 m

__________________________________________________________

Momentum of Tarzan before swinging:

We know that:

Momentum = Mass*Velocity

Momentum = 80 * 7

Momentum = 560 kg m/s

__________________________________________________________

Speed of Tarzan after grabbing the bananas:

The momentum of Tarzan will remain the same but his mass will increase

So, Since Momentum = New Mass* velocity

560 = 95 * v [where v is the velocity of Tarzan]

v = 5.9 m/s

__________________________________________________________

<h3>Finding the Initial and Final KE and PE:</h3>

Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy

Initial and Final KE:

We know that KE = 1/2*(mv²)

Initial KE:

Initial KE = 1/2*(mv²) [where v is the velocity after picking the bananas]

Initial KE = 1/2*(95*5.9²)

Initial KE = 1653.5 Joules

Final KE:

Final KE = 1/2*(mv²)

[where v is the velocity at the maximum point of the swing]

Since Tarzan will be at rest at the maximum point of the swing, v = 0 m/s

Final KE = 1/2*(95*0²)

Final KE = 0 Joules

Initial and Final PE:

We know that:

PE = mgh

[where g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height]

Initial PE:

Since the height of Tarzan from the ground was 0 m at the beginning of the swing, h = 0

Initial PE = 95*10*0

Initial PE = 0 Joules

Final PE:

Let the maximum height of Tarzan be h m

Final PE = 95*10*h

Final PE = 950(h)

__________________________________________________________

<h3>Finding the maximum height Tarzan will reach:</h3>

Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy

From the law of conservation of momentum, we know that:

Initial KE + Initial PE = Final KE + Final PE

Replacing the variables:

1653.5 + 0 = 0 + 950h

1653.5 = 950h

h = 1653.5/950 [dividing both sides by 950]

h = 1.74 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by Tarzan is 1.74 m

but since his monkey is sitting 3 m high, he will NOT be able to reach his monkey

A tennis player serves a tennis ball such that it is moving horizontally when it leaves the racquet. When the ball travels a hor

finlep [7]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 38.46 m/s.

Explanation:

The horizontal distance travel by the tennis ball = 13 m

The height at which the tennis ball dropped = 56 cm

Now calculate the initial speed of tennis ball.

The vertical velocity is zero.

Below is the calculation. Here, first convert centimetre into kilometre. So, height at which ball dropped is 0.56 km.

$v = \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 0.56} = 3.32 m/s \\$

$t = \frac{3.32}{9.8} = 0.338s \\$

$Ux \times t = 13 \\$

$Ux = \frac{13}{0.338} = 38.46 m/s = Initial velocity.$
