Answer:

Explanation:
As we know that loop is placed in YZ plane and magnetic field is along x direction
So here net force on the side of the loop which lies along Y axis is given as

here we know that on Y axis z = 0
so B = 0
so we have

now on the opposite side we have z = a
so magnetic field is given as

so force on that side is given as



so net force on the loop is given as


Answer:
a) The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm
b) the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
a) The index of refraction of the oil is 1.20. What is the minimum thickness of the oil slick at that spot?
t
= λ/2n
given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and index of refraction of the oil n = 1.20
we substitute
t
= 750 / 2(1.20)
t
= 750 / 2.4
t
= 312.5 ≈ 313 nm
Therefore, The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm
b)
Suppose the oil had an index of refraction of 1.50. What would the minimum thickness be now?
minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot will be;
t
= λ/4n
given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and index of refraction of the oil n = 1.50
we substitute
t
= 750 / 4(1.50)
t
= 750 / 6
t
= 125 nm
Therefore, the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm
Force is a vector quantity
so pulling from opposite side will be negative
so
750+(-500)= 250N
C is the right answer
becauseause the man on the right applies greater force.
