Answer:

Explanation:

This is case of interference in thin films

for constructive interference in thin film the condition is

2μ t = (2n+1)λ/2    ;  μ is refractive index of oil , t is thickness of oil , λ is wave length of light .

2 x 1.28 x t = λ/2 , if n = 0

2 x 1.28 x t = 605 /2

t = 118.16 nm .

the minimum non-zero thickness of the oil film required = 118.16 nm.

A passenger on a Ferris wheel moves in a vertical circle at a constant speed. Are the forces on her balanced?
vovikov84 [41]

C.  The force is a constant change,  because her position on the Ferris wheel will constantly change.  I believe this is the answer, but use sources to double check.  I might use different vocab. then your teachers.

g In a certain binary-star system, each star has the same mass which is 8.2 times of that of the Sun, and they revolve about the
Mademuasel [1]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Third Law of Kepler.

Kepler's third law tells us that the period is defined as

T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2 d^3}{2GM}

The given data are given with respect to known constants, for example the mass of the sun is

m_s = 1.989*10^{30}

The radius between the earth and the sun is given by

r = 149.6*10^9m

From the mentioned star it is known that this is 8.2 time mass of sun and it is 6.2 times the distance between earth and the sun

Therefore:

m = 8.2*1.989*10^{30}

d = 6.2*149.6*10^6

Substituting in Kepler's third law:

T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2 d^3}{2}

T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2(6.2*149.6*10^9)^3}{2(6.674*10^{-11} )(8.2*1.989*10^30 )}

T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2(6.2*149.6*10^9)^3}{2(6.674*10^{-11} )(8.2*1.989*10^30)}}

T = 120290789.7s

T = 120290789.7s(\frac{1year}{31536000s})

T \approx 3.8143 years

Therefore the period of this star is 3.8years

Write a list of at least five scientific methods.
kolbaska11 [484]
1- You should always have a question for your experiment.
2- You need to conduct background research. It helps to write down your sources so you can cite your references. 
3- Propose a hypothesis (educated guess on what you believe the outcome of the experiment will be)
4- Design and perform an experiment to test your hypothesis (include independent and dependent variable)
5- Record observations and analyze what the data means.
6- Conclude whether you need to accept or reject your hypothesis, which accepting means your hypothesis was right and rejected is if it was wrong.
