8 points)Antireflection coating can be used on the eyeglasses to reduce the reflection of light: a) A 100nm thick coating is app

lied to the lens. What must be the coating’s index of refraction to be most effective at 500nm? (Assume the coating index of refraction is less than that of the lens). b) If the index of refraction of the coating is 1.20, find the necessary thickness of the coating at 500nm.

Answer:

- the coating’s index of refraction is 1.25

- the required thickness is 104.1667 nm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Thickness of coating t = 100 nm

wavelength λ = 500nm

we know that refractive index is;

t = λ/4n

make n, the subject of formula

t4n = λ

n = λ / 4t

we substitute

n = 500 / ( 4 × 100 )

n = 500 / 400

n = 1.25

Therefore, the coating’s index of refraction is 1.25

2)

given that;

Index of refraction of the coating; n = 1.20

λ = 500 nm

thickness of coating t = ?

t = λ / 4n

we substitute

t = 500 / ( 4 × 1.2 )

t = 500 / 4.8

t = 104.1667 nm

Therefore, the required thickness is 104.1667 nm

The conservation of energy principle applies to a. all systems. b. open systems. c. closed systems. d. Ideal gas systems.
Ainat [17]

Answer:closed systems

Explanation:

A closed system is one in which matter does not enter or leave the system but there is exchange of energy between the system and its environment. In a closed system, the principle of energy conservation applies. The principle of energy conservation states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another. An example of a closed system is a reaction vessel whose lid is closed.

How would you describe the appearance of the substance after the phase change?
Leona [35]

Answer:

Substances can change phase—often because of a temperature change. At low temperatures, most substances are solid; as the temperature increases, they become liquid; at higher temperatures still, they become gaseous. The process of a solid becoming a liquid is called melting.

A one-piece cylinder has a core section protruding from the larger drum and is free to rotate around its central axis. A rope wr
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Magnitude the net torque about its axis of rotation is 2.41 Nm

Solution:

As per the question:

The radius of the wrapped rope around the drum, r = 1.33 m

Force applied to the right side of the drum, F = 4.35 N

The radius of the rope wrapped around the core, r' = 0.51 m

Force on the cylinder in the downward direction, F' = 6.62 N

Now, the magnitude of the net torque is given by:

\tau_{net} = \tau + \tau'

where

\tau = Torque due to Force, F

\tau' = Torque due to Force, F'

tau = F\times r

tau' = F'\times r'

Now,

\tau_{net} = - F\times r + F'\times r'

\tau_{net} = - 4.35\times 1.33 + 6.62\times 0.51 = - 2.41\ Nm

The net torque comes out to be negative, this shows that rotation of cylinder is in the clockwise direction from its stationary position.

Now, the magnitude of the net torque:

|\tau_{net}| = 2.41\ Nm
