Answer: Refraction.

Explanation: The lenses are used to "transmit" the light that hits the lens in a certain way.

The phenomena in which the light penetrates a medium (where the medium, in this case, is the lens) is called diffraction.

Reflection would be more related to mirrors, difraction is the change of the velocity of the light waves when they are in different mediums, and interference refers to the interaction between two coherent waves (it can be destructive interference, where the waves cancel each other, or constructive interference, where the waves add to each other)

An air bubble has a volume of 2.0 cm3 when it is released by a submarine 100 m below the surface of a freshwater lake. What is t
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

21.35 cm^3

Explanation:

let the volume at the surface of fresh water is V.

The volume at a depth of 100 m is V' = 2 cm^3

temperature remains constant.

density of water, d = 1000 kg/m^3

Pressure at the surface of fresh water is atmospheric pressure,

P = Po = 1.013 x 10^5 N/m^2

The pressure at depth 100 m is P' = Po + hdg

P' = 1.013 \times 10^{5}+ 100 \times 1000 \times 9.8

P' = 10.813 x 10^5 N/m^2

Use the Boyle's law

P V = P' V'

1.013 \times 10^{5}\times V = 10.813 \times 10^{5}\times 2

V = 21.35 cm^3

Thus, the volume of air bubble at the surface of fresh water is 21.35 cm^3.

In a certain two slit diffraction experiment, two slits 0.02mm wide are spaced0.2mm between centers.(a) How many fringes appear
Kamila [148]

Answer:

a)   m = 10  and    b)  λ  = 3.119 10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

In the diffraction experiments the maximums appear due to the interference phenomenon modulated by the envelope of the diffraction phenomenon, for which to find the number of lines within the maximum diffraction center we must relate the equations of the two phenomena.

Interference equation      d sin θ = m λ

Diffraction equation         a sin θ = n λ

Where d is the width between slits (d = 0.2 mm), a is the width of each slit (a = 0.02 mm). θ is the angle, λ the wavelength, m and n  are an integer.

Let's find the relationship of these two equations

    d sin θ / a sin θ = m Lam / n Lam

The first maximum diffraction (envelope) occurs for n = 1, let's simplify

    d / a = m

Let's calculate

    m = 0.2 / 0.02

    m = 10

This means that 10 interference lines appear within the first maximum diffraction.

b) let's use the interference equation, remember that the angles must be given in radians

    θ = 0.17 ° (π rad / 180 °) = 2.97 10⁻³ rad

    d sin  θ = m λ

    λ = d sin θ / m

    λ = 0.2 10⁻³ sin (2.97 10⁻³) / 2

    λ  = 3.119 10⁻⁷ m

Name one similarity and one difference between a set and a bump in volleyball??
kotykmax [81]
Bump: Bumping the ball means a player uses their forearms to pass the ball to a teammate or to hit the ball back over the net to the other team. Set: Setting the ball means a player positions the ball in a way that lets a teammate spike it over the net.
