Answer:

Point a

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is given by :

P = mgh

m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height above ground level.

Potential energy is directly proportional to the position of an object.

In the attached figure, the maximum height is shown at point (a). It means it will have maximum potential energy at a as compared to b,c and d.

Answer:

(1) Sure, the frequency is 1000 Hz.

Explanation:

Frequency = wave speed ÷ wave distance

wave speed = 100 m/s

wave distance = 10 cm = 10/100 = 0.1 m

Frequency = 100 ÷ 0.1 = 1000 Hz

The refractive index n of transparent acrylic plastic (full name Poly(methyl methacrylate)) depends on the color (wavelength) of

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block is

$\theta _d =0.19 ^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for blue light is $n_F = 1.497$

The wavelength of the blue light is $F = 486.1 nm = 486.1 *10^{-9} \ m$

The refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for red light is $n_C = 1.488$

The wavelength of the red light is $C = 656.3 nm = 656.3 *10^{-9} \ m$

The incidence angle is $i = 45^o$

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the blue light in the acrylic block is mathematically represented as

$r_F = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) * n_a }{n_F} ]$

Where $n_a$ is the refractive index of air which have a value of $n_a = 1$

So

$r_F = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) * 1 }{ 1.497} ]$

$r_F = 28.18^o$

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the red light in the acrylic block is mathematically represented as

$r_C = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) * n_a }{n_C} ]$

Where $n_a$ is the refractive index of air which have a value of $n_a = 1$

So

$r_C = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) * 1 }{ 1.488} ]$

$r_F = 28.37^o$

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block

$\theta _d = r_C - r_F$

substituting values

$\theta _d = 28.37 - 28.18$

$\theta _d =0.19 ^o$

An oil slick on water is 120 nm thick and illuminated by white light incident perpendicular to its surface. What color does the

gregori [183]

Answer:

$\lambda = 672 nm$

so this is nearly red colour light

Explanation:

As we know that the interference of light from reflected light then the path difference is given as

$\Delta x = 2\mu t + \frac{\lambda}{2}$

now we know that for constructive interference of light the path difference is given as

$\Delta x = n\lambda$

so we will have

$2\mu t + \frac{\lambda}{2} = N\lambda$

so we will have

$4\mu t = \lambda$

$\lambda = 2(1.40)(120nm)$

$\lambda = 672 nm$

so this is nearly red colour light
