The rhinestones in costume jewelry are glass with index of refraction 1.50. To make them more reflective, they are often coated

with a layer of silicon monoxide of index of refraction 2.00. What is the minimum coating thickness needed to ensure that light of wavelength 480 nm and of perpendicular incidence will be reflected from the two surfaces of the coating with fully constructive interference?

Answer:

60

Explanation:

According to the given question, the computation of minimum coating thickness is shown below:-

The condition for constructive interference is

$2t_{min} = (m + \frac{1}{2} )\times \frac{\lambda}{^nmateral}$

$= (0 + \frac{1}{2} )\times \frac{\lambda}{^nmateral}$

$t = \frac{\lambda}{4n}$

Now we will put the values to the above formula to reach the answer

$= \frac{480nm}{4\times 2.0}$

= 60

Therefore we simply applied the above formula to determine the minimum coating thickness

(e) For photons of energy 7.10 eV, what stopping potential would be required to arrest the current of photoelectrons

Masja [62]

2.37eV stopping potential would be required to arrest the current of photoelectrons.

<h3 /><h3>What is stopping potential ?</h3>

The minimal negative voltage that must be provided to the anode to halt the photocurrent is known as stopping potential. When expressed in electron volts, the maximal kinetic energy of the electrons is equal to the stopping voltage.

Kmax = eV₀

2.37eV = eV₀

V₀ = 2.37eV

Identify solar, wind, nuclear, and tidal power as nonrenewable or renewable energy

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Renewable energy: Tidal, solar and wind

Non renewable energy: nuclear power

Explanation:

Renewable energy is any energy in which its source is always replenished or renewed.

While non renewable energy sources cannot be replenished or renewed immediately because of its limited availability of resources.

Most renewable energy sources are natural sources.

Solar, tidal and wind energy are renewable energy known as clean energy. While nuclear energy is a non renewable energy in which its source of energy is fuel ( uranium e.t.c)

It is claimed that if a lead bullet goes fast enough, it can melt completely when it comes to a halt suddenly, and all its kinet

TEA [102]

Answer:

$v=346.05\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

initial temperature of the lead bullet, $T_i=43^{\circ}C$

latent heat of fusion of lead, $L_f=2.32\times 10^4\ J.kg^{-1}$

melting point of lead, $T_m=327.3^{\circ}C$

We have:

specific heat capacity of lead, $c=129\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}$

<em>According to question the whole kinetic energy gets converted into heat which establishes the relation:</em>

$\rm KE=(heat\ of\ rising\ the\ temperature\ from\ 43\ to\ 327.3\ degree\ C)+(heat\ of\ melting)$

$\frac{1}{2} m.v^2=m.c.\Delta T+m.L_f$

$\frac{1}{2} m.v^2=m(c.\Delta T+L_f)$

$\frac{v^2}{2} =129\times(327.3-43)+23200$

$v=346.05\ m.s^{-1}$

Car A is traveling west at 40 mi/h and car B is traveling north at 40 mi/h. Both are headed for the intersection of the two road

Gwar [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

$\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h, $\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h

The negative sign indicates that x and y are decreasing.

We have to find $\frac{dz}{dt}$ . Equation for the given variables according to the Pythagoras theorem is as follows.

$z^{2} = x^{2} + y^{2}$

Now, we will differentiate each side w.r.t 't' as follows.

$2z\frac{dz}{dt} = 2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}$

or, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

So, when x = 4 mi, and y = 3 mi then z = 5 mi.

As, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

= $\frac{1}{5}(4 \times (-40) + 3 \times (-40))$

= $\frac{-140 - 120}{5}$

= 52

Thus, we can conclude that the cars are approaching at a rate of 52 mi/h.
