The very top of the film shows no reflected light, indicating that the thickness is less than 1/4 the wavelength of visible ligh

t within the film, since the phase change on reflection for the beam from the first surface of the film is Ï radians and the phase change on reflection from the second surface of the film is 0 radians, making the interfering rays mostly out of phase from that part of the film. Given this information, what is the approximate thickness of the film at the first bright fringe counting from the top of the film, in terms of the wavelength of light in vacuum λ, and the refractive index of the film n?

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to interference in thin film.

By definition we know that the film thickness is given by the equation

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

Where,

m = Any integer which represents the number of repetition of the spectrum (number of fringe)

n = Index of refraction of the film

\lambda = Wavelength

t = Thickness

For first bright fringe we have then that m = 1, re-arrange to find t,

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

t = \frac{1\lambda}{2*2n}

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

Therefore the thickness of film would be \lambda /4

blondinia [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electron's kinetic energy = 2 eV

= 2 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

1/2 m v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

1/2 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

v² = .703 x 10¹²

v = .8385 x 10⁶ m/s

Electrons revolve in a circular orbit when forced to travel in a magnetic field whose radius can be expressed as follows

r = mv / Bq

where m , v and q are mass , velocity and charge of electron .

here given magnetic field B = 90 mT

= 90 x 10⁻³ T

Putting these values in the expression above

r =  mv / Bq

= \frac{9\times10^{-31}\times.8385\times10^6}{90\times10^{-3}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}

= .052 mm.

At the surface of Jupiter's moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is 1.81 m/s2 . A watermelon has a weight of 54.0 N at the s
butalik [34]

Answer:

m=5.51Kg

Explanation:

The weight of an object on Earth is given by W=mg, so we can calculate its mass by doing m=W/g, which for our values is:

m=(54N)/(9.8m/s^2)=5.51Kg

<em>Nothing is being asked</em> about Io but if one wanted to know the weight <em>W'</em> of the watermelon there one just have to do:

W'=ma=(5.51Kg)(1.81m/s^2)=9.97N

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

W = 0

Explanation:

We are given with, a construction worker is carrying a load of 40 kg over his head and is walking at a constant velocity. He travels a distance of 50 m.

The work done by an object is given by :

W=Fd

F = ma

So,

W=mad

m is mass

a is acceleration

d is displacement

The worker is moving with constant velocity, its acceleration will be 0. So, the work done by the worker is 0.

Two forces (4N and 3N) pull your the left, while a 12N force pulls to the right. What is the net force
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The answer is 11N to the right

Explanation:

Because 4N-3N= 1N

Therefore, 12N-1N=11N

The netforce is 11N to the right, because the greatest force is 12N to the right so it is more likely that the object is being pulled to the right.
