Answer:

Explanation:

For constructive interference in thin films by reflected light , the condition is

Path difference =  2μd = odd multiple of λ / 2

Where μ is refractive index of water , d is thickness of water medium and λ

is wavelength of light

λ = 4μd or 4μd / 3 or 4μd / 5

= 4 x 1.33 x 400 nm = 2128 nm

or 2128 /3 = 709.33 nm

or 2128 /5 = 425.6 nm

For destructive interference ( dim reflection )

2μd = multiple of λ = λ or 2λ or 3λ

2 x 1.33 x 400 nm =1064

or 1064 x 2 = 2128 nm

or 1064 x 3 = 3192 nm.

Consider a system to be two train cars traveling toward each other. What is the total momentum of the system before the train ca
Brut [27]

Let say the two train cars are of masses m_1 and m_2

now if the speed of two cars are v_1 and v_2

then we can say that the momentum of two cars before they collide is given by

P = m_1v_1 - m_2v_2

here two cars are moving in opposite direction so we can say that the net momentum is subtraction of two cars momentum.

Now since in these two car motion there is no external force on them while they collide

So the momentum of two cars are always conserved.

hence we can say that the final momentum of two cars will be same after collision as it is before collision

P = m_1v_1 - m_2v_2

A worker is thinking about two ways to get a box up 1.2 m onto a loading dock. He can use a force of 250 N to lift it straight u
harina [27]

Answer:

<em>The second option has a lower power output. P=30 W</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Power </u>

It is a physical magnitude that measures the rate a work W is done over time t.

\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}

Since W=F.d

\displaystyle P=\frac{F.d}{t}

The first option means the worker will lift the box by a distance of 1.2 meters in 3 seconds by applying 250 N of force. That produces a power of

\displaystyle P=\frac{(250). (1.2)}{3}=100\ Watt

The second option requires the worker applies 75 N of force and travel a distance of 4 meters for 10 seconds, thus the power is

\displaystyle P=\frac{(75). (4)}{10}=30\ Watt

The second option has a lower power output

Mainly because of the higher energy of blue light than red light.

In fact, light is made of photons, each one carrying an energy equal to
E=hf
where h is the Planck constant while f is the frequency of the light.
The frequency of red light is approximately 450 THz, while the frequency of blue light is about 650 Hz. Higher frequency means higher energy, so blue light is more energetic than red light and therefore it can cause more damages than red light.
