In a light wave, which properties tell you the color of light?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer :-  In a light wave the property of wave which tells about the color of light is it's Wavelength . 

Wavelength is the distance between one crest and one through , also it is the distance after which the wave repeat itself !

It's SI unit is meter !

It is scalar quantity !!

Different Wavelength of light have different color !!

<h2>• VIBGYOR </h2>

i.e, Violent , Indigo , Blue , Green , Yellow Orange, and Red along with their shades are the colors which we can see !!

• They almost range from 400nm to 700nm ( visible range of light )

if you jump from a window that is 2 meters up you will most likely break the bones in your legs when you land however on a tramp

Gemiola [76]

The de-acceleration or negative acceleration of stopping is what damages bones. The ground is rigid and therefore the change in momentum when striking the ground will be large. On the trampoline, the elasticity of the material means that the momentum changes more slowly, resulting in smaller accelerations.

A very narrow beam of white light is incident at 40.80° onto the top surface of a rectangular block of flint glass 11.6 cm thick

DerKrebs [107]

Dispersion angle = 0.3875 degrees.
Width at bottom of block = 0.09297 cm
Thickness of rainbow = 0.07038 cm
Snell's law provides the formula that describes the refraction of light. It is:
n1*sin(Î¸1) = n2*sin(Î¸2)
where
n1, n2 = indexes of refraction for the different mediums
Î¸1, Î¸2 = angle of incident rays as measured from the normal to the surface.
Solving for Î¸2, we get
n1*sin(Î¸1) = n2*sin(Î¸2)
n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2 = sin(Î¸2)
asin(n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2) = Î¸2
The index of refraction for air is 1.00029, So let's first calculate the angles of the red and violet rays.
Red:
asin(n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.641) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.641) = Î¸2
asin(0.398299876) = Î¸2
23.47193844 = Î¸2
Violet:
asin(n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.667) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.667) = Î¸2
asin(0.39208764) = Î¸2
23.08446098 = Î¸2
So the dispersion angle is:
23.47193844 - 23.08446098 = 0.38747746 degrees.
Now to determine the width of the beam at the bottom of the glass block, we need to calculate the difference in the length of the opposite side of two right triangles. Both triangles will have a height of 11.6 cm and one of them will have an angle of 23.47193844 degrees, while the other will have an angle of 23.08446098 degrees. The idea trig function to use will be tangent, where
tan(Î¸) = X/11.6
11.6*tan(Î¸) = X
So for Red:
11.6*tan(Î¸) = X
11.6*tan(23.47193844) = X
11.6*0.434230136 = X
5.037069579 = X
And violet:
11.6*tan(Î¸) = X
11.6*tan(23.08446098) = X
11.6*0.426215635 = X
4.944101361 = X
So the width as measured from the bottom of the block is: 5.037069579 cm - 4.944101361 cm = 0.092968218 cm
The actual width of the beam after it exits the flint glass block will be thinner. The beam will exit at an angle of 40.80 degrees and we need to calculate the length of the sides of a 40.80/49.20/90 right triangle. If you draw the beams, you'll realize that:
cos(Î¸) = X/0.092968218
0.092968218*cos(Î¸) = X
0.092968218*cos(40.80) = X
0.092968218*0.756995056 = X
0.070376481 = X
So the distance between the red and violet rays is 0.07038 cm.
