Out of that list, the concave mirror is the only item that can concentrate sunlight and heat into a small area. But if you could get ahold of a convex lens, that would be even better.
Answer:
Explanation:
In case of oil slick a thin layer of oil is formed on water . This thin layer creates a rainbow of colour . The phenomenon is due to interference of light waves , one reflected from the upper surface of oil and the other reflected from the lower surface of the oil.
For formation of bright colour
2 μ t = ( 2n + 1 ) λ / 2
μ is refractive index of oil , t is thickness of oil layer λ is wave length of light falling on the layer .
given μ = 1.2 , λ = 750 x 10⁻⁹ ,
2 x 1.2 t = ( 2n + 1 ) 750 x 10⁻⁹ / 2
For minimum thickness n = 0
2.4 t = 375 x 10⁻⁹
t = 156.25 n m
B ) If the refractive index of layer of medium below oil is less than that of oil , the condition of formation of colour changes
The new condition is
2 μ t = n λ
2 x 1.5 t = 750 nm , n = 1 for minimum wavelength .
t = 250 nm
C ) Light mostly transmitted means dark spot is formed at that point .
For that to be observed from water side , the condition is
2 μ t = ( 2n + 1 ) λ / 2
λ = 4μ t / ( 2n + 1 )
For maximum wavelength n = 0
λ = 4μ t
= 4 x 1.5 x 200 nm
= 1200 nm .
Answer:
12.50 m/s
Explanation:
Vi = 9.49 m/s
a = 0.988 m/s²
t = 3.05 s
Vf = ?
Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 9.49 + (0.988)(3.05)
Vf = 12.50 m/s
Answer:
f = 878,080 N
Explanation:
mass of pile driver (m) = 2100 kg
distance of pile driver to steel beam (s) = 5 m
depth of steel driven (d) = 12 cm = 0.12 m
acceleration due to gravity (g0 = 9.8 m/s^{2}
calculate the average force exerted on the pile driver by the beam.
- from work done = force x distance
- work done = change in potential energy of the pile driver
- equating the two equations above we have
force x distance = m x g x (s - d)
f x 0.12 = 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12))
d = - 0.12 because the steel beam went down at we are taking its
initial position to be an origin point which is 0
f = ( 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12)) ) ÷ 0.12
f = 878,080 N
Answer:
The period of a wave is the time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle. Period, being a time, is measured in units of time such as seconds, hours, days or years. The period of orbit for the Earth around the Sun is approximately 365 days; it takes 365 days for the Earth to complete a cycle.
