Answer:

b. passes through the principal focal point.

Explanation:

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

A lens can be defined as a transparent optical instrument that refracts rays of light to produce a real image.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of lens and these includes;

I. Diverging (concave) lens.

II. Converging (convex) lens.

A converging lens refers to a type of lens that typically causes parallel rays of light with respect to its principal axis to come to a focus (converge) and form a real image. This type of lens is usually thin at the lower and upper edges and thick across the middle.

For a converging lens, a ray arriving parallel to the optic axis passes through the principal focal point.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

λ = 396.7 nm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the diffraction ratio of a grating

           d sin θ = m λ

in general the networks works in the first order m = 1

we can use trigonometry, remembering that in diffraction experiments the angles are small

           tan θ = y / L

           tan θ = \frac{sin \theta}{cos \theta} = sin θ

           sin θ = y / L

we substitute

          d \  \frac{y}{L} = m λ

with the initial data we look for the distance between the lines

           d = \frac{m \lambda \ L}{y}

           d = 1 656 10⁻⁹ 1.00 / 0.600

            d = 1.09 10⁻⁶ m

for the unknown lamp we look for the wavelength

           λ = d y / L m

           λ = 1.09 10⁻⁶ 0.364 / 1.00 1

           λ = 3.9676 10⁻⁷ m

           λ = 3.967 10⁻⁷ m

         

we reduce nm

           λ = 396.7 nm

<span>When reading a buret, the initial reading should be taken from the top of the glassware and the final volume should still taken at the top. If the buret is completely, the initial volume for most buret would be zero. though, there are some where their initial starts at 50 decreasing to zero.</span>
