When the two surfaces of a thin film are parallel and the light is incident at some angle what fringes are formed? A. Circular B

. Elliptical C. Parabolic D. Straight and why?
Physics
1 answer:
lord [1]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. Circular

Explanation:

Some of the light that impinges on the surface are reflected and the rest are transmitted to a different medium

At the surface of the next medium also, some of the light are transmitted while the others are reflected and refracted through the first medium

The speed of light (and hence the wavelength and color) refracted through the thin film is changed as the distance the refracted light travels through the thin film is increased as we move away from the point directly in the front view to some distance as the reflected light path from those distance to the eye is increased due to their inclination giving them a different wavelength which are all equal at a radial distance from the eye hence forming a circular fringes.

A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a bridge with a height of 36 m. The ball travels 25 m horizontally before it hits the p
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

9.23 m/s

Explanation:

Let, the initial velocity be ux.

The horizontal velocity remans the same. So, time required, t = 25/ux

For vertical component, we know,

h = uy*t + (1/2)*g*t^2    [ g is positive because ball is falling downward ]

Putting in the values, we get,

36 = 0*(25/ux) + 1/2 * 9.81 * (25/u)^2

36 = 3065.625/u^2

u^2 = 85.15625

u = 9.23

[ If there's a problem with the solution, please inform me ]

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
frutty [35]

Answer:

Velocity=1.1m/s

Amplitude=0.35m

Explanation:

Given:

time 't' = 2.9s

wavelength 'λ'= 5.5m

distance 'd'=0.7m

The time period 't' is the time b/w two successive waves. Therefore, the time it takes from the boat to travel  from its highest point to its lowest is a half period.

So, T = 2 x 2.9 => 5.8 s

As we know that frequency is the reciprocal of time period, we have

f= 1/T = 1/5.8 =>0.2 Hz

In order to find how fast are the waves traveling, the velocity is given by

Velocity = f λ

V= 0.2 x 5.5 =>1.1m/s

The distance between the boat's highest point to its lowest point is double the amplitude.

Therefore , we can write

Amplitude 'A'= d/2 =>0.7/2 =>0.35m

A 5.00-g bullet is fired into a 900-g block of wood suspended as a ballistic pendulum. The combined mass swings up to a height o
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The value is  KE_b =0.710 \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass  of the bullet is m_b  = 5.00 \ g  = 0.005 \  kg

  The mass  of the wood is  m_w =  900 \  g  =  0.90\  kg

   The height attained by the combined mass is  h =  8.0 \ cm  =  0.08 \ m

Generally according to the law of energy conservation    

    KE _b  =  PE_c

Here KE_b is the kinetic energy of the bullet before collision.

and PE_c is the  potential  energy of the combined mass of bullet and wood at the height h which is mathematically represented as

      PE_m  =  [m_b  + m_w] *  g *  h

So

   KE_b =PE_c   = [0.005  + 0.90] * 9.8 *0.08

=> KE_b =0.710 \ J
