In a physics lab, light with a wavelength of 530 nm travels in air from a laser to a photocell in a time of 16.7 ns . When a sla
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

\lambda'=78.086\ nm

Explanation:

Given:

  • wavelength of light in the air, \lambda=530\times 10^{-9}\ m
  • time taken to travel from the source to the photocell via air, t=16.7\ s
  • time taken to reach the photocell via air and glass slab, t'=21.3\times 10^{-9}\ s
  • thickness of the glass slab, x=0.87\ m

<u>Now we have the relation for time:</u>

\rm time=\frac{distance}{speed}

hence,

t=\frac{d}{c}

c= speed of light in air

16.7\times 10^{-9}=\frac{d}{3\times 10^8}

d=16.7\times 10^{-9}\times 3\times 10^8

d=5.01\ m

For the case when glass slab is inserted between the path of light:

\frac{(d-x)}{c} +\frac{x}{v} =t' (since light travel with the speed c only in the air)

here:

v = speed of light in the glass

\frac{(5.01-0.87)}{3\times 10^8} +\frac{0.87}{v} =21.3\times 10^{-9}

v=4.42\times 10^7\ m.s^{-1}

Using Snell's law:

\frac{\lambda}{\lambda'} =\frac{c}{v}

\frac{530}{\lambda'} =\frac{3\times 10^8}{4.42\times 10^7}

\lambda'=78.086\ nm

densk [106]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

B. is correct because every time usually when a hurricane hits it causes flooding causing multiple homes to be ruined. It is a known fact that usually hurricanes start close or in along with tornadoes, the water, meaning once they hit land they have some water to flood that land with.

C. is absolutely false hurricanes have VERY strong wind gusts.

D. is absolutely wrong they do alter landscapes by ripping trees and plants and houses out of the ground making the landscapes look different.

A. is wrong they tend to deposit and remove sediment evenly.
