Answer:

Volcanoes that form away from plate boundaries are created by hotspots. A hotspot is an area in the mantle that is believed to be somewhat hotter than the surrounding material. The rising magma from the hotspot can push its way through the crust and burst out at the surface, forming a volcano.

Initial velocity u = 40 
Angle at launch = 55 degrees
 At maximum height v = 0, velocity equation v^2 = u^2 - 2gh,
 0 = (40 x sin55)^2 - 2 x 9.81 x h => (40 x 0.819)^2 = 19.62h => h = 32.76^2 /
19.62
 Maximum height = 54.7 m 
 We have v = u - gt => 0 = (40 x sin55) - 9.81 x t => t = 32.76 / 9.81 => t =
3.34 s
 Time taken to hit the ground is 2t = 2 x 3.34 = 6.68 s 
Distance from castle to trebuchet = utcos55 = 40 x 6.68 x 0.573 = 153.1 m

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The case relates to interference in thin films , in which we study interference of light waves reflected by upper and lower surface of a medium or glass.

For constructive interference , the condition is

2μt = ( 2n+1)λ/2

μ is refractive index of glass , t is thickness , λ is wavelength of light.

putting the given values

2 x 1.53 x 350 x 10⁻⁹ = ( 2n+1) λ/2

λ = 2142nm /  ( 2n+1)

For n = 2

λ = 428 nm

This wave length will have constructive interference making this light brightest of all .

For n = 1

λ = 714  nm

So second largest  brightness will belong to 700 nm wavelength.
