A diver is swimming underneath an oil slick with a thickness of 200 nm and an index of refraction of 1.50. A white light shines

straight down towards the diver from above the oil slick. The index of refraction of water is 1.33. What is the longest wavelength of the light in water, ????????????????????????, that is transmitted most easily to the diver?

Answer:

Explanation:

thickness of oil t = 200 nm

index of refraction μ = 1.5

For transmitted light :---

path difference = 2μ t

For constructive interference

path difference = n λ , λ is wavelength  of light

2μ t = n λ

λ = 2μ t /  n

For longest λ , n = 1

λ = 2μ t

= 2 x 1.5 x 200 nm

= 600 nm

Wavelength in water

= 600 / refractive index of water

= 600 / 1.33

= 451.1 nm Ans

a transmission-line cable, of length 3 km, consists of 19 strands of identical copper conductors, each 1.5 mm in diameter. becau
Ivan

the resistance of the cable is 582.9 ohms

we are given the length of the cable which is  3 km,  of  1.5 mm in, the diameter  and resistivity of copper which is 1.72 m

The formula  we are referring to for calculating the resistance of the  cable is

R = ρl/A.

As there are 19 strands of copper conductors, so the resistance will be

R = 19( ρl/A)

Here  ρ is the resisitivity =  1.72 , l is the length  = 3(1+0.05)*10³3= 3150 m

A=pie/4(1.5 x 10⁻³)^2 =1.766 x 10⁻⁶ =1.766 x 10^-6

Substituting the values in the formula  we  get

R = 19 ( 1.72*3150 )/1.766 x 10⁻⁶

 = 582.9 ohm

The apparent weight of a student in alift is 564N . if the mass of the student is 60.3kg, what is the acceleration of the lift ?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

-.457 m/s^2

Explanation:

Actual weight =   60 .3 (9.81) = 591.54 N

Accel of lift changes this to    60.3 ( 9.81 - L)     where L - accel of lift

                                           60.3 ( 9.81 - L ) = 564

                                               solve for L = .457 m/s^2  DOWNWARD

                                                        so L = - .457 m/s^2

A 11.0 kg satellite has a circular orbit with a period of 1.80 h and a radius of 7.50 × 106 m around a planet of unknown mass. I
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Expression for times period of a satellite can be given as follows

Time period T = 1.8 x 60 x 60

= 6480

T² = \frac{4\times \pi^2\times r^3}{GM} where T is time period , r is radius of orbit , G is gravitational constant and M is mass of the satellite.

6480² = 4 x 3.14² x 7.5³ x 10¹⁸ / GM

GM = 4 x 3.14² x 7.5³ x 10¹⁸ / 6480²

= 3.96 X 10¹⁴

Expression for acceleration due to gravity

g = GM / R² where R is radius of satellite

20 = 3.96 X 10¹⁴ / R²

R² = 3.96 X 10¹⁴ / 20

= 1.98 x 10¹³ m

R= 4.45 x 10⁶ m
