A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.28 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum o

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The thickness of the oil slick is $1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Index of refraction = 1.28

Wave length = 500 nm

Order m = 1

We need to calculate the thickness of oil slick

Using formula of thickness

$2nt= m\lambda$

Where, n = Index of refraction

t = thickness

$\lambda$ = wavelength

Put the value into the formula

$2\times1.28 \times t=1\times\times500\times10^{-9}$

$t = \dfrac{1\times\times500\times10^{-9}}{2\times1.28 }$

$t=1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

Hence, The thickness of the oil slick is $1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

If I push on the wall with 75 Newtons of force, the wall will push back with ______

Sauron [17]

Answer:

(F)reaction = - 75 N

where, negative sign shows opposite direction.

Explanation:

This question can be answered using Newton's third law of motion. The Newton's Third Law of Motion states that for every action force there is an equal but opposite reaction force.

(F)action = - (F)reaction

Hence, in our scenario if we consider the 75 Newton force applied on the wall to be the action force then the reaction force of the wall must be equal to it in opposite direction. Therefore, the reaction push of the wall must be equal to 75 N.

<u>(F)reaction = - 75 N</u>

<u>where, negative sign shows opposite direction.</u>

Two hypothetical planets of masses m1 and m2 and radii r1 and r 2 , respectively, are nearly at rest when they are an infinite d

Leto [7]

Answer:

(a) $v_1 = m_2\sqrt{\frac{2G}{d(m_1+m_2)} }$

$v_2=m_1\sqrt{\frac{2G}{d(m_1+m_2)} }$

(b) Kinetic Energy of planet with mass m₁, is KE₁ = 1.068×10³² J

Kinetic Energy of planet with mass m₂, KE₂ = 2.6696×10³¹ J

Explanation:

Here we have when their distance is d apart

$F_{1} = F_{2} =G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{d^{2}}$

Energy is given by

$Energy \,of \,attraction = -G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{d}}+\frac{1}{2} m_{1} v^2_1+ \frac{1}{2} m_{2} v^2_2$

Conservation of linear momentum gives

m₁·v₁ = m₂·v₂

From which

v₂ = m₁·v₁/m₂

At equilibrium, we have;

$G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{d}} = \frac{1}{2} m_{1} v^2_1+ \frac{1}{2} m_{2} v^2_2$ which gives

$2G{m_{1}m_{2}}= d m_{1} v^2_1+ dm_{2} (\frac{m_1}{m_2}v_1)^2= dv^2_1(m_1+(\frac{m_1}{m_2} )^2)$

multiplying both sides by m₂/m₁, we have

$2Gm^2_{2}}= dv^2_1 m_2+dm_1v^2_1 =dv^2_1( m_2+m_1)$

Such that v₁ = $\sqrt{\frac{2Gm^2_2}{d(m_1+m_2)} }$

$v_1 = m_2\sqrt{\frac{2G}{d(m_1+m_2)} }$

Similarly, with v₁ = m₂·v₂/m₁, we have

$G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{d}} = \frac{1}{2} m_{1} v^2_1+ \frac{1}{2} m_{2} v^2_2\Rightarrow 2G{m_{1}m_{2}}= dm_{1} (\frac{m_2}{m_1}v_1)^2 +d m_{2} v^2_2= dv^2_2(m_2+(\frac{m_2}{m_1} )^2)$

From which we have;

$2G{m^2_{1}}= dm_{2} v_2^2 +d m_{1} v^2_2$ and

$v_2=m_1\sqrt{\frac{2G}{d(m_1+m_2)} }$

The relative velocity = v₁ + v₂ = $v_1+v_2=m_1\sqrt{\frac{2G}{d(m_1+m_2)} } + m_2\sqrt{\frac{2G}{d(m_1+m_2)} } = (m_1+m_2)\sqrt{\frac{2G}{d(m_1+m_2)} }$
