Answer:

Red has the longest wavelength among all the visible colors of light.

Explanation:

Visible light is the only electromagnetic radiations which can be seen by human eye. When white visible light passes through a prism it breaks down into 7 distinctive colors of rainbow.

These are red, orange, yellow, green blue, indigo and violet.

Red has the longest wavelength of around 700 nano meters with violet has the shortest wavelength of 380 nano meters.

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:

Given:

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.

A plank of length L=2.200 m and mass M=4.00 kg is suspended horizontally by a thin cable at one end and to a pivot on a wall at

baherus [9]

Hello!

Let's begin by doing a summation of torques, placing the pivot point at the attachment point of the rod to the wall.

$\Sigma \tau = 0$

We have two torques acting on the rod:
- Force of gravity at the center of mass (d = 0.700 m)

- VERTICAL component of the tension at a distance of 'L' (L = 2.200 m)

Both of these act in opposite directions. Let's use the equation for torque:
$\tau = r \times F$

Doing the summation using their respective lever arms:

$0 = L Tsin\theta - dF_g$

$dF_g = LTsin\theta$

Our unknown is 'theta' - the angle the string forms with the rod. Let's use right triangle trig to solve:

$tan\theta = \frac{H}{L}\\\\tan^{-1}(\frac{H}{L}) = \theta\\\\tan^{-1}(\frac{1.70}{2.200}) = 37.69^o$

Now, let's solve for 'T'.

$T = \frac{dMg}{Lsin\theta}$

Plugging in the values:
$T = \frac{(0.700)(4.00)(9.8)}{(2.200)sin(37.69)} = \boxed{20.399 N}$

A bicyclist travels 4.5 km west, then travels 6.7 km at an angle 27.0 degrees South of West. What is the magnitude of the bicycl

Dimas [21]

Answer:

10.90km

Explanation:

Magnitude of the total displacement is expressed using the equation

d = √dx²+dy²

dx is the horizontal component of the displacement

dy is the vertical component of the displacement

dy = -6.7sin27°

dy = -6.7(0.4539)

dy = -3.042

For the horizontal component of the displacement

dx = -4.5 - 6.7cos27

dx = -4.5 -5.9697

dx = -10.4697

Get the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement

Recall that: d = √dx²+dy²

d = √(-3.042)²+(-10.4697)²

d = √9.2538+109.6146

d = √118.8684

d = 10.90km

Hence the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement is 10.90km
