Answer:

The expression for destructive interference in thin films allows to find the result for the smallest thickness of the films is:

         t = 2.03 10⁻⁸ mm

Explanation:

Given parameters

Incident wavelength lamo = 535 nm

Refractive index of the film n = 1.32

To find

The minimum thickness for destructive interference

The interference phenomenon occurs when the path of two rays scattered by an obstacle have different optical paths. In the case of thin films we must take into account:

The reflected wave has a phase change of 180º when it goes from a medium with a lower refractive index to a medium with a higher index.

Inside the film medium the wavelength is modulated by the refractive index.

                 

In the attachment we see an outline of these events and the expression for destructive interference remains.

               2 n t = m λ₀

Where n is the refractive index, t the thickness of the film, λ₀ the wavelength in the vacuum and m an integer indicating the order of interference.  

             t =  

The first destructive interference occurs for m = 1, let's calculate.

       t =    

       t = 202.65 nm

Let's reduce this amount to millimeters.

        t = 202.65 nm  

        t = 2,027 10⁻⁸ mm

In conclusion, using the expression for destructive interference in thin films we can find the result for the smallest thickness of the films is:

         t = 2.03 10⁻⁸ mm

The conduction velocity of an axon is determined by:
Marina86 [1]

The conduction velocity of an axon is determined by myelin sheath

thickness and internode distance.

Axon are structures in the neuron which is involved in the conduction of

impulses away from the cell body. Axons which have myelin sheath conduct

impulses faster than those without it.

Axons which have thicker myelin sheath and longer internode distance will

increase the conduction velocity of an axon and vice versa.

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

T’= 4/3 T  

The new tension is 4/3 = 1.33 of the previous tension the answer e

Explanation:

For this problem let's use Newton's second law applied to each body

Body A

X axis

      T = m_A a

Axis y

     N- W_A = 0

Body B

Vertical axis

     W_B - T = m_B a

In the reference system we have selected the direction to the right as positive, therefore the downward movement is also positive. The acceleration of the two bodies must be the same so that the rope cannot tension

We write the equations

    T = m_A a

    W_B –T = M_B a

We solve this system of equations

     m_B g = (m_A + m_B) a

    a = m_B / (m_A + m_B) g

In this initial case

     m_A = M

     m_B = M

     a = M / (1 + 1) M g

     a = ½ g

Let's find the tension

    T = m_A a

    T = M ½ g

    T = ½ M g

Now we change the mass of the second block

    m_B = 2M

    a = 2M / (1 + 2) M g

    a = 2/3 g

We seek tension for this case

    T’= m_A a

    T’= M 2/3 g

   

Let's look for the relationship between the tensions of the two cases

   T’/ T = 2/3 M g / (½ M g)

   T’/ T = 4/3

   T’= 4/3 T

The new tension is 4/3 = 1.33 of the previous tension the answer  e
