Answer

When 100 cars are on one lane and the faster car of the lane meets the slower car then the rate of the movement of the vehicle is decided by the slowest moving car.

The flow rate of traffic is the rate of the vehicle car a point in the given interval of time.

When the car is moving slowly fast-moving cars will not get the chance to move and they have to follow the slow-moving car.

Hence, it is rightly stated the flow of traffic is decided by slow-moving vehicles.

When monochromatic light shines perpendicularly on a soap film (n = 1.33) with air on each side, the second smallest nonzero fil

Anika [276]

Let us start from considering monochromatic light as an incidence on the film of a thickness t whose material has an index of refraction n determined by their respective properties.

From this point of view part of the light will be reflated and the other will be transmitted to the thin film. That additional distance traveled by the ray that was reflected from the bottom will be twice the thickness of the thin film at the point where the light strikes. Therefore, this relation of phase differences and additional distance can be expressed mathematically as

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

We are given the second smallest nonzero thickness at which destructive interference occurs.

This corresponds to, m = 2, therefore

$2t = 2\lambda_{film}$

$t = \lambda_{film}$

The index of refraction of soap is given, then

$\lambda_{film} = \frac{\lambda_{vacuum}}{n}$

Combining the results of all steps we get

$t = \frac{\lambda_{vacuum}}{n}$

Rearranging, we find

$\lambda_{vacuum} = tn$

$\lambda_{vacuum} = (278)(1.33)$

$\lambda_{vacuum} = 369.74nm$

Porque deja de funcionar una estufa electrica cuando la electricidad es excesiva??

Brums [2.3K]

<h3>Porque deja de funcionar una estufa electrica cuando la electricidad es excesiva?</h3>

Es normal que los quemadores superiores de una estufa eléctrica o una estufa se enciendan y apaguen en configuraciones distintas a Hi. El quemador se encenderá y apagará más de lo normal cuando se utilizan cacerolas que no son planas o que son del tamaño incorrecto para el quemador.

Calculate potential energy

IrinaVladis [17]

The potential energy of an object is defined by the equation: PE = mgh, where m = the mass of the object, g = the gravitational acceleration and h = the object's height above the ground.
