Which two possible explanations does the video give for why white light changes into colored light? Color is an impurity added t

o white light by the prism. Color is present in the materials on which white light shines. White light contains seven colors, which are separated by the prism. White light reacts with chemicals in the air to produce seven colors.

Answer:

White light contains seven colors, which are separated by the prism.

White light reacts with chemicals in the air to produce seven colors.

Explanation:

It was first observed by Sir Issac Newton, that when white light is passed through a prism, an elongated, coloured patch of light is obtained on a screen placed behind the prism. The seven colours obtained constitute the spectrum of white light.

In nature, white light is separated into its constituent wavelengths when white light interacts with substances in the atmosphere.

An engineer can increase the magnitude of the magnification of a compound microscope by
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Magnification of Microscope is  

M = M_o \times M_e

Mo= Magnification of objective lens and

Me= magnification of the eyepiece.  

Both magnifications( of objective and eyepiece) are inversely proportional to the focal length.  

Magnification,  

M\ \alpha\ \dfrac{1}{f}

when the focal length is less magnification will be high and when the magnification is the low focal length of the microscope will be more.

Thus. Magnification will increase by decreasing the focal length.

The correct answer is Option B i.e. using shorter focal length

It is determined that a certain wave of infrared light has a wavelength of 8.45 mm. Given that c=2.99 ×108 m/s, what is the freq
irina [24]

Answer:

The frequency of infrared wave is 35.385 GHz

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of infrared light = 8.45 mm = 8.45 x 10^{-3} m

Velocity of infrared light = 2.99 x 10^{8} m/s

To find: frequency of the infrared wave = ?

We know that the wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional and the formula to derive frequency with velocity and wavelength is:

c = μλ, where

c is velocity of light

μ is frequency of light

λ is wavelength of light

Hence the frequency of light  μ = c/λ

                                                     = \frac{2.99 x 10^{8} m/s }{8.45 x 10^{-3}m }

                                                     = \frac{299}{8.45} x 10^{9} s^{-1}

                                                     =  35.385  x  10^{9} Hz   (since 1 s^{-1} = 1 Hz)

                                                     = 35.385 GHz

satellite is placed in an elongated elliptical (not circular) orbit around the Earth. At the point in its orbitwhere it is close
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

a) v2=4147.72 m/s

b) stotal=5.53x10^6 m

Explanation:

a) the length from the center of the earth is equal to:

L1=1x10^6+((6.37/2)x10^6)=4.18x10^6 m

the velocity is 5.14 km/s=5.14x10^3 m/s

the farthest distance is equal to:

L2=2x10^6+((6.37/2)x10^6)=5.18x10^6 m

As the angular momentum is conserved, we have to:

I1=I2

m*L1*v1=m*L2*V2, where m is the mass of satelite

clearing v2:

v2=(L1*V1)/L2=(4.18x10^6*5.14x10^3)/5.18x10^6=4147.72 m/s

b) Using the Newton 3rd law:

vf^2=vi^2+2as

where:

a=g=9.8 m/s^2

vf=0

vi=5.14 km/s

s=?

Clearing s:

s=(vf^2-vi^2)/(2g)=((0-(5.14x10^3)^2)/(2*9.8)=1.35x10^6 m

the total distance is equal to:

stotal=s+L1=1.35x10^6+4.18x10^6=5.53x10^6 m

A child on a swing falls a height of 1m. What speed will the child reach?
kirill [66]

Answer:v=4.42\ m/s

Explanation:

Given

Child falls a height of h=1\ m

Applying conservation of energy  we can write

Loss in Potential energy=Gain in kinetic energy

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1}

v=\sqrt{19.6}

v=4.42\ m/s

Thus child reaches a velocity of 4.42 m/s
