The problem of the "sound barrier" has to do with moving through
air, and the things the air does when you try to push it out of the
way faster than the speed of sound. Moving through air faster
than sound was an engineering and technological problem, not
a scientific one.

Concerning light, that's about 874 thousand times faster.

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

Sedaia [141]

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

A filamentary conductor is formed into an equilateral triangle with sides of length carrying current i . find the magnetic field

arsen [322]

magnetic field due to a finite straight conductor is given by

$B = \frac{\mu_0 i}{4\pi r}(sin\theta_1 + sin\theta_2)$

here since it forms an equilateral triangle so we will have

$\theta_1 = \theta_2 = 60 degre$

also the perpendicular distance of the point from the wire is

$r = \frac{a}{2\sqrt3}$

now from the above equation magnetic field due to one wire is given by

$B = \frac{\mu_0 i}{4\pi \frac{a}{2\sqrt3}(sin60 + sin60)$

$B = \frac{\mu_0 i*2\sqrt3}{4\pi a}(\sqrt3)$

$B = \frac{3\mu_0 i}{2\pi a}$

now since in equilateral triangle there are three such wires so net magnetic field will be

$B = \frac{9\mu_0 i}{2\pi a}$

The lowest point in Death Valley is 85 m below sea level. The summit of nearby Mt. Whitney has an elevation of 4420 m.What is th

mario62 [17]

Answer:

$\Delta E=2.87\times 10^6\ J$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Depth of Death valley is 85 m below sea level, $h_i=-85\ m$

The summit of nearby Mt. Whitney has an elevation of 4420 m, $h_f=4420\ m$

Mass of the hiker, m = 65 kg

We need to find the change in potential energy. It is given by :

$\Delta E=mg(h_f-h_i)$

$\Delta E=65\times 9.8(4420-(-85))$

$\Delta E=2869685\ J$

or

$\Delta E=2.87\times 10^6\ J$

So, the change in potential energy of the hiker is $2.87\times 10^6\ J$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
