g A thin uniform film of oil that can be varied in thickness covers a sheet of glass of refractive index 1.52. The refractive in

dex of the oil is 1.64. Light of wavelength 555 nm is shone from air at normal incidence on the film. Starting with no oil on the glass, you gradually increase the thickness of the oil film until the first interference maximum in the reflected light occurs. What is the thickness of the oil film at that instant

Answer:

The right solution is "84.09 nm".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Refractive index of glass,

= 1.52

Refractive index of oil (n),

= 1.64

Wavelength (λ),

= 555 nm

Now,

The thickness of the film (t) will be:

= \frac{\lambda}{4n}

= \frac{555}{4\times 1.65}

= \frac{555}{6.6}

= 84.09 \ nm

Recall the equation for magnetic force:

F = qv x B          *x is cross product, not separate variable!

If the magnetic field points towards N and you throw E, then the magnetic force would point up, or out of the page. Use the right-hand rule. You point your finger towards the direction of the object, and curl your finger to the magnetic field. Your thumb is the direction of the magnetic force.

Hope this helps!

Achilles and the tortoise are having a race. The tortoise can run 1 mile (or whatever the Hellenic equivalent of this would be)
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Surely Achilles will catch the Tortoise, in 400 seconds

Explanation:

The problem itself reduces the interval of time many times, almost reaching zero. However, if we assume the interval constant, then it is clear that in two hours Achilles already has surpassed the Tortoise (20 miles while the Tortoise only 3).

To calculate the time, we use kinematic expression for constant speed:

x_{final}=x_{initial}+t_{tor}v_{tor}=1+t_{tor}\\x_{final}=x_{initial}+t_{ach}v_{ach}=10t_{ach}

The moment that Achilles catch the tortoise is found by setting the same final position for both (and same time as well, since both start at the same time):

1+t=10t\\t=1/9 hour=0.11 hours

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

4.1666666 seconds

Explanation:

100 divided by 24 will give you about 4.1666666 seconds or 4 1/6 seconds. Hope it helps!

A rollercoaster car has 2500 J of potential energy and 160 J of
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

E_{k2}=2660 [J] kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The energy in the initial state i.e. when the rollercoaster is at the top is equal to the energy in the final state i.e. when it is at the bottom of the hill.

These states can be represented by means of the second equation.

E_{k1}+E_{p1}=E_{k2}\\160 + 2500 = E_{k2}\\E_{k2}=2660 [J]

Since the rollercoaster is located in the bottom of the hill where the potential energy level is zero, therefore there is only kinetic energy in the second state.
