A device known as an optical resonator is used in lasers. An optical resonator consists of an arrangement of mirrors that reflec

t electromagnetic radiation back and forth within an empty cavity. The electromagnetic radiation within the cavity reflects off of the mirrors multiple times. The mirrors are precisely placed so that only particular frequencies can survive within the cavity via constructive interference. All other frequencies are suppressed via destructive interference. The end result is a beam of light of a certain frequency.
An optical resonator of the type described above depends on the tendency of light to
A. behave as a wave.
B. excite atoms to certain energy levels.
C. excite electrons to certain energy levels.
D. behave as a particle.

Answer:

A. The resonator behaves as a wave guide (a hollow pipe used as a transmission line). The characteristics of the pipe depend on the type of the wave to be transmitted.

A block lies on a horizontal frictionless surface. A horizontal force of 100 N is applied to the block giving rise to an acceler
KIM [24]

Answer:

(a) m = 33.3 kg

(b) d = 150 m

(c) vf = 30 m/s

Explanation:

Newton's second law to the block:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

Data

F= 100 N

a= 3.0 m/s²

(a) Calculating of the  mass of the block:

We replace dta in the formula (1)

F = m*a

100 =  m*3

m = 100 / 3

m = 33.3 kg

Kinematic analysis

Because the block  moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formulas:

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (2)

vf= v₀+a*t   Formula (3)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

t : time interval in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²

Data

a= 3.0 m/s²

v₀= 0

t = 10 s

(b) Distance the block will travel if the force is applied for 10 s

We replace dta in the formula (2):

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t²

d = 0+ (1/2)*(3)*(10)²

d =150 m

(c) Calculate the speed of the block after the force has been applied for 10 s

We replace dta in the formula (3):

vf= v₀+a*t

vf= 0+(3*(10)

vf= 30 m/s

Imagine that heike onnes cooled mercury down to absolute zero and there was still resistance. would he have discovered supercond
likoan [24]

No, because superconductivity cannot occur if there is resistance

In addition to explaining electrical resistance, equilibrium distance theory also foretells the existence of superconductivity. According to its postulates, electrical resistivity decreases with distance from the equilibrium. There is only superconductivity at zero distance, with no resistance

<h3>What is Superconductivity ?</h3>

The ability of some materials to transmit electric current with virtually little resistance is known as superconductivity.

  • This ability has intriguing and maybe beneficial ramifications. Low temperatures are necessary for a material to exhibit superconductor behaviour. H. K. made the initial discovery of superconductivity in 1911.
  • Aluminum, magnesium diboride, niobium, copper oxide, yttrium barium, and iron pnictides are a few well-known examples of superconductors.
