Serhud [2]3 years ago

6 0

Explanation:

acceleration is the change in velocity per time taken

a = ∆v/t.

a = (216 - 0)/10

a = 216/10

a = 21.6m/s²

Monochromatic light of wavelength, lambda, is traveling in air. The light then strikes a thin film having an index of refraction

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The correct option is H

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The index of refraction of coating is $n_1$

The index of refraction of material is $n_2$

Generally the condition for constructive for a thin film interference is mathematically represented

$2 * t = [ m + \frac{1}{2}] \frac{\lambda}{n_1 }$

Here t represents the thickness

For minimum thickness m = 0

$2 * t =0 + \frac{1}{2}\frac{\lambda}{n_1 }$

=> $t =\frac{\lambda}{4n_1 }$

A large 10.kg medicine ball is caught by a 70.kg student on the track team. If the ball was moving at 4.0 m/s, how fast will the

exis [7]

v2 = ?

m1 = 10kg

m2 = 70kg

v1 = 4m/s

E1 = E2

E1 = 1/2 * m1 * v1^2 = 1/2 * 10kg * 4m/s^2 = 80J

E2 = 1/2 * m2 * v2^2 = 80 J

v2 = √(E2/(2 * m2)) = √(80J/(2 * 70kg)) = about 0.76m/s
