When light is passing from a denser medium to a lighter medium ( for example: from water to air) 
<span> When the angle of refraction is greater than the critical angle( angle of incidence when the angle of refraction is perpendicular to the normal) of the denser medium.</span>

f 720-nm and 620-nm light passes through two slits 0.68 mm apart, how far apart are the second-order fringes for these two wavel
valkas [14]

Answer:

0.0003 m = 0.3 mm

Explanation:

For constructive interference in the Young's experiment.

The position of the mth fringe from the central fringe is given by

y = L(mλ/d)

λ = wavelength = 720 nm = 720 × 10⁻⁹ m

L = distance between slits and screen respectively = 1.0 m

d = separation of slits = 0.68 mm = 0.68 × 10⁻³ m

m = 2

y = 1(2 × 720 × 10⁻⁹/(0.68 × 10⁻³) = 0.00212 m = 2.12 mm

For the 620 nm light,

y = 1(2 × 620 × 10⁻⁹/(0.68 × 10⁻³) = 0.00182 m = 1.82 mm

Distance apart = 2.12 - 1.82 = 0.3 mm = 0.0003 m

How does the modern periodic table arrange elements?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

In the modern periodic table, the elements are arranged according to their atomic number - not their relative atomic mass . In the periodic table the elements are arranged into: rows, called periods , in order of increasing atomic number. vertical columns, called groups , where the elements have similar properties.

What’s the answer to this question
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

space = 66.24 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that the average speed is defined as the relationship between a space traveled over a certain time.

Av = \frac{space}{time}

where:

space [m]

Av = average velocity = 3.6 [m/s]

time = 18.4 [s]

space = 3.6*18.4\\space = 66.24 [m]

How physical properties are important for identifying unknown substances
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Every characteristic property is unique to one given substance. Scientists use characteristic properties to identify an unknown substance. Characteristic properties are used because the sample size and the shape of the substance does not matter.

Explanation:

A characteristic property is a chemical or physical property that helps identify and classify substances. The characteristic properties of a substance are always the same whether the sample being observed is large or small. Examples of characteristic properties include freezing/melting point, boiling/condensing point, density, viscosity and solubility.
