A thin layer of oil (n = 1.38) on the ocean surface for thousands of miles. As an inspector, you are flying over the ocean surfa

ce in an aircraft, looking at a section of option where the oil thickness is 563 nanometers thick. You look straight down at the ocean, at a time of day when the sun is directly above you. a) So, if constructive interference occurs (i.e. where the reflection is brightest) what is the wavelength(s) of visible light in the reflection? b) However, in order to get a close-up look at the oil slick, you put on scuba gear and go diving under the portion of ocean you had been observing from the plane. For which wavelength(s) of visible light yield the strongest transmitted intensity?

What is the approximate size of the Earth's magnetic field? (dont ask me to specify thats what the question is and im as confuse
Olegator [25]

Answer:

The Earth's magnetic field intensity is roughly between 25,000 - 65,000 nT (.25 -.65 gauss).

Explanation:

<em>To measure the Earth's magnetism in any place, we must measure the direction and intensity of the field. The Earth's magnetic field is described by seven parameters. These are declination (D), inclination (I), horizontal intensity (H), the north (X), and east (Y) components of the horizontal intensity, vertical intensity (Z), and total intensity (F). The parameters describing the direction of the magnetic field are declination (D) and inclination (I). D and I are measured in units of degrees, positive east for D and positive down for me. The intensity of the total field (F) is described by the horizontal component (H), vertical component (Z), and the north (X) and east (Y) components of the horizontal intensity. These components may be measured in units of gauss but are generally reported in nanoTesla (1nT * 100,000 = 1 gauss). </em><em>The Earth's magnetic field intensity is roughly between 25,000 - 65,000 nT (.25 - .65 gauss). </em><em>Magnetic declination is the angle between magnetic north and true north. D is considered positive when the angle measured is east of true north and negative when west.  The magnetic inclination is the angle between the horizontal plane and the total field vector, measured positive into Earth. In older literature, the term “magnetic elements” is often referred to as D, I, and H.</em>

A metal ball of mass 2 kg is supported by a massless inextensible string, 12 cm long. A horizontal force displaces the ball by 3
Rudiy27

As it is given that 2 kg mass is suspended by 12 cm long thread and then a horizontal force is applied on it so that it remains in equilibrium at 30 degree angle

So here we can use force balance in X and Y directions

now for X direction or horizontal direction we can use

F = Tsin30

for vertical direction similarly we can say

mg = T cos30

so here we first divide the two equations

\frac{F}{mg} = \frac{sin 30}{cos 30}

\frac{F}{mg} = tan 30

F = mg tan30

now plug in all values in the above equation

F = 2 * 9.8 * tan30

F = 11.3 N

Part b)

now in order to find the tension in the thread we can use any above equation

F = T sin30

11.3 = T sin30

T = \frac{11.3}{sin30}

T = 22.6 N

so tension in the thread will be 22.6 N
