A very thin film of soap, of thickness 170 nm, in between air seems dark. On the other hand, when placed on top of glass some vi

sible light is seen to shine from the film. How can this happen and what is the smallest visible light that creates constructive interference when we place the film on top of glass

Answer:

λ₀ = 2 d n

Explanation:

A soap film is a layer where the lus is reflected on the surface and on the inside of the film, these two reflected rays can interfere with each other either constructively or destructively.

Let's analyze the general conditions of this interference,

* When the ray of light reaches the surface of the film it is reflected, as the index of refraction of the air is less than the index of the film, the reflected ray has a phase change of 180º

* When the ray penetrates the film, its wavelength changes due to the refractive index of the film.

          λ = λ₀ / n

where lick is the wavelength in the vacuum or air and n index of refraction of the film, in general this interference is observed perpendicular to the film, so the sine veils 1. the expression for constructive interference taking in what previous remains

         2d = (m + ½) λ

the expression for destructive interference remains

         2d = m λ

          2d = m λ₀ / n

When the film is placed on a glass plate whose index of refraction is greater than the index of refraction of the film, in the reflection in the lower part of the film another phase difference of 180º is created, for which we have a difference of total phase of 180 +180 = 360º, which is equivalent to no phase difference, therefore the two previous equations are interchanged.

Therefore where we had destructive interference now a cosntructive interference happens we can see the reflected light.

Find us the wavelength that this constructive interference creates

           2d n = m λ₀

           λ₀ = 2 d n / m

To find the minimum wavelength, suppose we observe the first interference pattern m = 1

         λ₀ = 2 d n

where d is the thickness of the film and n the index of refraction of the same

3.A golf ball is hit of it’s tee, 200m down the fairway.
Alinara [238K]

<u>Answers:</u>


3. The diagrams showing the forces acting on the golf ball are in the figure attached. Let’s have a detailed look:


a) Here the ball is under 2 forces:


F1 which is called The Normal force and is perpendicular to the surface of the tee where the ball rests


-F1, related to the gravity force, to the weight of the ball, and has the same magnitude, but the opposite direction (That’s why it has a negative sign).



In this case the sum of the forces is 0



b) Here we have again forces F1 and –F1, but in this very moment the club strikes the ball and we have:


F2, the force of the strike





c) While the ball is in its flight, it is under the following forces:


F1, the force of the lift through the air


-F2, the gravity force

-F3, the force of air resistance, also called drag


F4, the tangencial force of the ball flight




4. Here are the sizes and directions of the resultant forces:


i)Two forces of the same magnitude or size are applied to this block, but in opposite directions (in the x-axis). This is expressed as:



F=-10N+10N=0 The resulting force is zero



ii) Two forces of different size and opposite directions in the y-axis are applied to this block. The sum of the forces is:



F=30N-40N=-10N This means the resulting force is 10N applied downwards



iii) In this case the only force applied to the block is -5N applied downwards



iv) Here there are four forces applied to the block.  

In the y-axis we have to forces of the same size but opposite directions:



F1=10N-10N=0 This means the applied force in the y-axis is zero



In the x-axis we have two forces of different size and opposite directions:



F2=-15N+10N=-5N This means the resulting force is applied to the –x-side
