1. Why do you see colors when you look at reflected light from a CD or DVD disk, or when you look at a soap bubble or oil film o

n water?
2. What do you think causes the colors on the artwork panels on the side of HLS2 (Health Sciences building) which change with time of day and the angle from which you view them?

3 0

Explanation:

1.The light reflected from the CD/DVD or soap bubble or oil film forms an interference with the surrounding light. The inference both constructive and destructive making some color appear and some disappear.

2.As light behaves as wave it will interfere differently at different angles. At certain angle it will interfere constructively and at certain angle it will interfere destructively making some color brighter and some disappear. So, at different angles the color are different.

How do velocities combine
Anarel [89]

Answer:

They combine if they have the same units

Explanation:

I am not quite sure what you mean by this question. I will try my best to answer this.

Velocities combine only if they both have the same units. The linear velocities have the unit meters per second. For example, a linear velocity and an angular velocity cannot combine together because angular velocity has a unit of radians per second.

A physics student standing on the edge of a cliff throws a stone vertically downward with an initial speed of 10 m/s. The instan
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

The velocity just before hitting the ground is v_f = 30 m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The initial speed is  u = 10 m/s

    The final speed is  v = 30 \ m/s

From the equations of motion we have that

      v^2 =u^2 + 2as

Where s is the distance travelled which is the height of the cliff

  So making it the subject of the the formula  we have that

        s = \frac{v^2 - u^2 }{2a}

Where a is the acceleration due to gravity with a value  a = 9.8m/s^2

       So

                  s = \frac{30^2 - 10^2 }{2 * 9.8 }

                  s = 40.8 \ m

Now we are told that was through horizontally with a speed of

      v_x =10 m/s

Which implies that this would be its velocity horizontally through out the motion

    Now it final  velocity vertically can be mathematically evaluated as

            v_y = \sqrt{2as}

Substituting values

             v_y = \sqrt{(2 * 9.8 * 40.8)}

             v_y =  28.3 \ m/s

The resultant final velocity is mathematically evaluated as

       v_f = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}

Substituting values

       v_f = \sqrt{10^2 + 28.3^2}

       v_f = 30 m/s
