Answer:

The dimension is L

Explanation:

Dimension analysis is a method of representing quantities majorly with respect to some fundamental quantities of mass (M), length (L), time (T).

A sphere has a definite volume which relates to its radius by:

V = $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi$ $r^{3}$

In this equation $\pi$ is a dimensionless quantity, and the unit of v is $m^{3}$ .

But, metre is a measure of length, thus it has a dimension of L.

So that,

$m^{3}$ ≅ $L^{3}$

Then,

$L^{3}$ = $r^{3}$

Find the cube root of both sides to have,

r = L

Therefore, the dimension of the radius of a sphere is L.

When monochromatic light shines perpendicularly on a soap film (n = 1.33) with air on each side, the second smallest nonzero fil

Anika [276]

Let us start from considering monochromatic light as an incidence on the film of a thickness t whose material has an index of refraction n determined by their respective properties.

From this point of view part of the light will be reflated and the other will be transmitted to the thin film. That additional distance traveled by the ray that was reflected from the bottom will be twice the thickness of the thin film at the point where the light strikes. Therefore, this relation of phase differences and additional distance can be expressed mathematically as

$2t + \frac{1}{2} \lambda_{film} = (m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda_{film}$

We are given the second smallest nonzero thickness at which destructive interference occurs.

This corresponds to, m = 2, therefore

$2t = 2\lambda_{film}$

$t = \lambda_{film}$

The index of refraction of soap is given, then

$\lambda_{film} = \frac{\lambda_{vacuum}}{n}$

Combining the results of all steps we get

$t = \frac{\lambda_{vacuum}}{n}$

Rearranging, we find

$\lambda_{vacuum} = tn$

$\lambda_{vacuum} = (278)(1.33)$

$\lambda_{vacuum} = 369.74nm$

Answer:

Since strong nuclear forces involve only nuclear particles (not electrons, bonds, etc) items 3 and 4 are eliminated.

Again item 2 refers to bonds between atoms and is eliminated.

This leaves only item 1.

Nuclear forces are very short range forces between components of the nucleus.

Weak nuclear forces are trillions of times smaller than strong forces.

Gravitational forces are much much smaller than the weak nuclear force.

g Suppose Howard is pulling a bucket of bricks up along the side of a building with a rope. The bricks have a mass of 20 kg and

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

= 236N

Explanation:

tension T = mg + ma

Given that,

m = 20kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

a = 2.0 m/s²

T = m(g + a)

T = 20( 9.8 + 2.0)

= 20(11.8)

= 236N
