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

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.

Citrus2011 [14]
When you're in an airplane that's 7 miles up off the ground, the strength of gravity plunges to only 99.6 percent of its strength all the way down on the ground. A big heavy person, who weighs 200 pounds down at the airport, weighs only 199 pounds 4.7 ounces in a plane at the altitude of 7 miles.

Starting from Newton’s law of universal gravitation, show how to find the speed of the moon in its orbit from the earth-moon dis
WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1010.92 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (1)

Where:

F is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon

G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the Gravitational Constant  

M=5.972(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

m=7.349(10)^{22} kg is the mass of the Moon

r=3.9(10)^{8} m is the distance between the Earth and Moon

Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to F:

F=m.a_{C} (2)

Where a_{C} is the centripetal acceleration given by:

a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r} (3)  

Being V the orbital velocity of the moon

Making (1)=(2):

m.a_{C}=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (4)

Simplifying:

a_{C}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (5)

Making (5)=(3):

\frac{V^{2}}{r}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (6)  

Finding V:

V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}} (7)

V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24} kg)}{3.9(10)^{8} m}} (8)

Finally:

V=1010.92 m/s

Which statement is true about gravitational forces?
Readme [11.4K]
Hey there!

Your correct answer would be (<span>Every mass exerts a gravitational force on every other mass.) It really doesn't matter the size in mass what so ever, gravity is stronger than mass, mass in nothing compared to mass. Therefor, gravity exert's mass on any object with any size of mass.

Your correct answer would be . . . 

</span>\boxed{\boxed{Every \ mass \ exerts \ a \ gravitational \ force \ on \ every \ other \ mass}}
<span>
Hope this helps.
