Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Archimedes principle is a very important concept in fluid mechanics which is credited to the Greek mathematician called Archimedes. The law simply states that; When an object is fully or partially immersed in a fluid , the immersed body experiences an upthrust(Weight loss) which is equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the immersed object.

In essence, the upthrust or volume of Displacement experienced by the object will be equal to the volume of the the object which is immersed in the fluid. Such that the force of buoyancy matches the weight of object immersed in the fluid.

One of the most common illustrations of Archimedes is in the navigation of ships whose upthrust increases as the weight of the ship increases such that the upthrust force balances the weight of the ship in water.

What visible wavelengths of light are strongly reflected from a 390-nm-thick soap bubble?

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

So visible wavelength which is possible here is

416 nm and 693.3 nm

Explanation:

As we know that for normal incidence of light the path difference of the reflected ray is given as

$2\mu t + \frac{\lambda}{2} = \Delta x$

so here we can say that for maximum intensity condition we will have

$\Delta x = N\lambda$

so we have

$2\mu t + \frac{\lambda}{2} = N\lambda$

now for visible wavelength we have

for N = 1

$2\mu t = \frac{\lambda}{2}$

$\lambda = 4\mu t$

$\lambda = 4(\frac{4}{3})(390 nm)$

$\lambda = 2080 nm$

for N = 2

$\lambda = \frac{4\mu t}{3}$

$\lambda = \frac{4(\frac{4}{3})(390 nm)}{3}$

$\lambda = 693.3 nm$

for N = 3

$\lambda = \frac{4\mu t}{5}$

$\lambda = \frac{4(\frac{4}{3})(390 nm)}{5}$

$\lambda = 416 nm$
