Which physical phenomenon is illustrated by the fact that the prism has different refractive indices for different colors

Physics
1 answer:
alexandr402 [8]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The incoming white light is composed of light of different colors,

Since these different colors have different refractive indices they are refracted at different angles from one another.

The output light is then separated by color creating a color spectrum.

Since n is greater for shorter wavelengths  (violet colors) these wavelengths are refracted thru the larger angles.

In each of the parts of this question, a nucleus undergoes a nuclear decay. Determine the resulting nucleus in each case.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(A). The resulting nucleus is Fr.

(B). The resulting nucleus is Po.

(C). The resulting nucleus is Ne

(D). The resulting nucleus is Tc.

Explanation:

Given that,

A nucleus undergoes a nuclear decay.

(A). In alpha decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit alpha particle then atomic mass of particle reduce by 4 and atomic number reduce by 2.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{227}_{89}Ac\Rightarrow ^{227-4}_{89-2}X

^{227}_{89}Ac\Rightarrow ^{223}_{87}Fr

The resulting nucleus is Fr.

(B). In beta-minus decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit beta- minus particle then atomic mass of particle is same and atomic number increase by 1.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{211}_{83}Bi\Rightarrow ^{211}_{83+1}X

^{211}_{83}Bi\Rightarrow ^{211}_{84}Po

The resulting nucleus is Po.

(C). In beta-plus decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit beta- plus particle then atomic mass of particle is same and atomic number decrease by 1.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{22}_{11}Na\Rightarrow ^{22}_{11-1}X

^{22}_{11}Na\Rightarrow ^{22}_{10}Ne

The resulting nucleus is Ne.

(D). In gamma decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit gamma particle then atomic mass and atomic number of particle is same.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{98}_{43}Tc\Rightarrow ^{98}_{43}Tc

The resulting nucleus is Tc.

Hence, (A). The resulting nucleus is Fr.

(B). The resulting nucleus is Po.

(C). The resulting nucleus is Ne

(D). The resulting nucleus is Tc.

What is the wavelength of a wave that has a speed of 26 m/s and a frequency of 49? ? Show your work
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Wave speed = Wavelength x Frequency

26 m/s = Wavelength x 49

Divide by 49 to find the wavelength:

The wavelength is approximately 0.53

Let me know if this helps!
