A thin film of soap with n = 1.34 hanging in the air reflects dominantly red light with λ = 642 nm. What is the minimum thicknes

s of the film? Tries 0/20 Now this film is on a sheet of glass, with n = 1.55. What is the wavelength of the light in air that will now be predominantly reflected?

Answer:

The minimum thickness of the film and the wavelength of the light in air are 1.197\times10^{-7}\ m and 371 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Refractive index of soap= 1.34

Refractive index  of glass= 1.55

Wavelength = 642 nm

(I). We need to calculate the minimum thickness

Using formula of thickness

t=\dfrac{(2m+1)\lambda}{4n}

Where, m = 0 for constrictive

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{(642\times10^{-9})}{4\times1.34}

t=1.197\times10^{-7}\ m

(II). We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{2nt}{m}

Where, m = 1

Put the value into the formula

\lambda=\dfrac{2\times1.55\times1.197\times10^{-7}}{1}

\lambda=371\ nm

Hence, The minimum thickness of the film and the wavelength of the light in air are 1.197\times10^{-7}\ m and 371 nm.

Which energy depends the arbitrarily assigned zero level
Serga [27]

Potential energy does.

A book on the floor has negative potential energy relative to the seat
of your chair, zero potential energy relative to the floor, and a whole
bunch of positive potential energy relative to the ground if the floor
is the floor of the passenger jet in which you are cruising and dropped
your book on the floor.

Answer:

8) 709.8875 J

9) The object is at 7.24375 m from the ground

10) Kinetic energy increases as the object falls.

Explanation:

We use the expression for the displacement h(t) as a function of time of an object experiencing free fall:

h(t) = hi - (g/2) t^2

hi being the initial position of the object (10m) above ground, g the acceleration of gravity (9.8 m/s^2), and t the time (in our case 0.75 seconds):

h(0.75) = 10 - 4/9 (0.75)^2 = 7.24375 m

This is the position of the 10 kg object after 0.75 seconds (answer for part 9)

Knowing this position we can calculate the potential energy of the object when it is at this height, using the formula:

U = m g h = 10kg * 9.8 (m/s^2) * 7.24375 m = 709.8875 J (answer for part 8)

Part 10)

the kinetic energy of the object increases as it gets closer to ground, since its velocity is increasing in magnitude because is being accelerated in its motion downwards.

What is the significance of the nose end marking on a rocket or missile?
Gemiola [76]
If you're referring to the different colors that usually occur at the tip of missles, rockets and some other aircraft, it either a) signifies the end of a particular plate of metal, fabricated specifically to be for the nose. Sometimes these can even be a different alloy or metal all together. or b) this shows where the curved surface begins, so in the case of damage or imperfections due to wear, they can be repaired and measured more easily. The shape of the nose is extremely important for smooth flight, and a dent or bump formed on it can make the aircraft unstable. If you can measure from where the curve starts by the difference in color, it makes repairing or re-fabricating the part much easier. Many of these curves aren't as simple as they appear.

Suppose that the collector is held at a small negative voltage with respect to the grid. Will the accelerated electrons reach th
Leona [35]

Answer:

B) Yes, but only those electrons with energy greater than the potential difference established between the grid and the collector will reach the collector.

Explanation:

In the case when the collector would held at a negative voltage i.e. small with regard to grid So yes the accelerated electrons would be reach to the collecting plate as the kinetic energy would be more than the potential energy that because of negative potential

so according to the given situation, the option b is correct

And, the rest of the options are wrong
