Answer:

C

Explanation:

Thin film interference is most constructive or most destructive when the path length difference for the two rays is an integral or half-integral wavelength, respectively. That is, for rays incident perpendicularly, 2t = λn, 2λn, 3λn, . . . or  2t = λn/2, 3λn/2, 5λn/2 , .....

We see a constant phase shift off λn/2. Hence option C

Calculate ΔH∘f (in kilojoules per mole) for benzene, C6H6, from the following data:
Dahasolnce [82]
ΔH<span> for the reaction = [sum of heat of formation for products] - [sum of heat of formation for reactants]
   
-6534 = [(12)(-393.5) + (6)(-285.8)] - (2X)

-6534 = [(-4722) + (-1714.8)] - 2X

-6534 = -6436.8 - 2X

-6534 + 6436.8 = -2X

-</span>97.2 = -2X<span>
 
then, divide each side by two to cancel out the numerical coefficient.

x = +48.6 kJ, which is the heat of formation for benzene.</span>

Jim is driving a 2268-kg pickup truck at 22 m/s and releases his foot from the accelerator pedal. The car eventually stops due t
shutvik [7]

Answer:

610 meters.

Explanation:

Because Jim released the accelerator, the truck started to slow down, so the friction force will eventually stop the truck.

the kinetic energy of the truck just after Jim released the pedal is:

E_k=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2\\E_k=\frac{1}{2}*2268*(22)^2=548856J

The work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_s*d\\\\d=\frac{548856J}{900N}\\\\d=610m

GIVING BRAINLIEST FIVE STARS AND 25 POINTS!
Ne4ueva [31]

Engines can overheat for many reasons. In general, it's because something's wrong within the cooling system and heat isn't able to escape the engine compartment. The source of the issue could include a cooling system leak, faulty radiator fan, broken water pump, or clogged coolant hose.

Hope it helps! Have a nice day or night!
