A soap bubble usually pops because some part of it becomes too thin due to evaporation or drainage of fluid. The change in thick

ness also changes the color of light the bubble reflects. Why?

Answer:

To understand why the change in thickness also changes the color of light the bubble reflects, we definitely know that

mλ = dsinθ

when d sin θ = mλ, we expect constructive interference

d = distance between the slits

θ = the angle relative to the incident direction

m = order of the interference

Hence, a change in the thickness will also cause a change in the wavelength, and as wavelength changes, various colors are generated.

The light's path difference is therefore generated as a result of the thickness variation of the soap bubble.

hoa [83]

Answer:

Q = +1.4 pC

Explanation:

  • The capacitance of any capacitor, by definition, is as follows:
  •  C = \frac{Q}{V} (1)
  • Applying Gauss'Law and the definition of electric potential, it can be showed that the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor can be expressed as follows:
  •  C = \frac{\epsilon_{r}*\epsilon_{0} * A}{d} (2)
  • Where εr is the dielectric constant of the material that fills the space between the plates, A is the area of one of the plates, and d, is the separation between them.
  • Replacing by the givens in (2) we can find the value of the capacitance C, as follows:

       C = \frac{\ 4.4*8.85e-12C2/N*m2*7.1e-9m2}{1.5e-8m} = 18.4e-12 F = 18.4 pF

  • Replacing the values of C and V in (1), we can solve for Q, as follows:

       Q = C*V = 18.4e-12 F* 75.9e-3 V = 1.4e-12 C = +1.4 pC

  • As the outer surface is at a higher potential that the inside surface, the charge on it must be positive, and is equal to +1.4 pC.

Alligators and other reptiles don't use enough metabolic energy to keep their body temperatures constant. They cool off at night
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

Amount of heat required can be found from the following relation

Q = mcΔT

m is mass of the body , c is specific heat and ΔTis rise in temperature .

Here m = 300 kg

c = 3350 J /kg k

ΔT = 30 - 25

= 5 °C

Putting the values in the expression above

Q = 300 x 3350 x 5

= 5025000 J

Rate at which energy is absorbed = 1200 J /s

Time required

= 5025000 / 1200

= 4187.5 S

= 69.8 minute

= 1 hour 9.8 mimutes.
