Answer:

The minimum distance moved by mirror is 125 nm

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength of light \lambda = 500 \times 10^{-9} m

Here given in question, spot of constructive interference change to a destructive interference.

Hence minimum distance moved by one of mirror is given by,

   t = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{\lambda}{2} )

Where t = distance moved by mirror

   t = \frac{\lambda }{4}

   t = \frac{500\times 10^{-9} }{4}

   t = 125 \times 10 ^{-9}

Therefore, the minimum distance moved by mirror is 125 nm

weeeeeb [17]

Answer: The multiplication factor is 72.136 cm. This will give you the unit conversion when multiplied with 28.4 inch

Explanation:

1 inch = 2.54 cm

28.4 inches = x cm

Xcm= (28.4 inches × 2.54cm)/1 inch

X= 72.136

Sidana [21]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

n_g=1.55

n_f=1.35

\lambda=521 nm=521\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

a.We have to find the expression for  the minimum thickness the film can have ,t.

Condition for destructive interference

2nt=(m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda

t=\frac{(m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda}{2n}

For minimum thickness m=0

Then, t=\frac{\lambda}{4n}

b.Substitute the values

t=\frac{521\times 10^{-9}}{4\times 1.35}=96.5nm
