What is the thinnest soap film (excluding the case of zero thickness) that appears black when illuminated with light with a wave

length of 550 nm

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 specialty of an athlete on the women's track team is the pole vault. She has a mass of 48 kg and her approach speed is 8.9 m
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

H = 3.9 m

Explanation:

mass (m) = 48 kg

initial velocity (initial speed) (U) = 8.9 m/s

final velocity (V) = 1.6 m/s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

find the height she raised her self to as she crosses the bar (H)

from energy conservation, the change in kinetic energy = change in potential energy

0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mg(H-h)

where h = initial height = 0 since she was on the ground

the equation becomes

0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mgH

0.5 x 48 x (1.6^{2} - [test]8.9^{2}[/tex]) = 48 x 9.8 x H

-1839.6 = 470.4 H  (the negative sign indicates a decrease in kinetic energy so we would not be making use of it further)

H = 3.9 m

A baseball of mass 300-g is hit at a velocity of 40 m/s. If the ball is caught by the third baseman and the ball penetrates 2.0
OlgaM077 [116]

The force is -12,000 N

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the acceleration of the ball, by using the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where:

v = 0 is the final velocity of the baseball (it comes to rest)

u = 40 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m is the displacement of the ball

Solving for a,

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-40^2}{2(0.02)}=-40,000 m/s^2

Now we can calculate the average force exerted on the ball, by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

m = 300 g = 0.3 kg is the mass of the ball

a=-40,000 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting,

F=(0.3)(-40,000)=-12,000 N

where the negative sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite to the direction of motion of the ball.
