4 0

Answer:

Let No be initial no of atoms

N = N0 / 2 after 1 half-life

N = N0 / 4 after 2 half-lives

So after 2 half-lives 20 of the 80 atoms remain

Answer:

Δt = 5.29 x 10⁻⁴ s = 0.529 ms

Explanation:

The simple formula of the distance covered in uniform motion can be used to find the interval between when the sound arrives at the right ear and the sound arrives at the left ear.

$\Delta s = v\Delta t\\\\\Delta t = \frac{\Delta s}{v}$

where,

Δt = required time interval = ?

Δs = distance between ears = 18 cm = 0.18 m

v = speed of sound = 340 m/s

Therefore,

$\Delta t = \frac{0.18\ m}{340\ m/s}$

A puddle of water has a thin film of gasoline floating on it. A beam of light is shining perpendicular on the film. If the wavel

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts of Destructive and constructive interference. The constructive interference in tin film is given by

$2t = (m+\frac{1}{2})\frac{\lambda}{n}$

Where,

t = thickness

$\lambda=$ Wavelenght

m= is an integer

n= film/refractive index

We use this equaton because phase change is only present for gasoline air interface, but not at the gasoline-water interface. <em>The minimum t only would be when the value of m=0 then</em>

$2nt = \frac{\lambda}{2}$
