allsm [11]

This question is incomplete, the complete question;

you make an interferometer using 50-50 beam splitter and two mirrors, one being a perfect mirror and one which does not reflect all light. The wavelength of the 9 mW incident laser is 400 nm.

Because the top mirror is not perfectly reflective (it reflects 90% of the photons, allowing 10% of them to go through), the power measured at the detector when only the vertical arm is blocked is 2.25 mW, while the power measured at the detector when only the horizontal arm is blocked is only 2.025 mW. Assume initially the intensity is at its maximum. How much would we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector, and what is that minimum intensity

Options;

a) 200 nm; 0.9 mW

b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW

c) 200 nm; 0 mW

d) 100 nm; 0.9 mW

e) 200 nm; 0.0059 mW

Answer:

the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector  and the minimum intensity are;

100 nm; 0.0059 mW

Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given that the instrument here is an interferometer.

Maximum intensity is obtained when the two waves are exactly in phase.

that is the peaks (crusts and troughs) and nodes (zero value points) of the two waves will be at the exact same point when the wave falls on the detector.

The phase factor of this point is taken as ∅ = 0

Now, to get a minimum point, the phase difference between the two waves should be should be ∅ = π

This corresponds to a path difference between the two waves as half of the wavelength. λ/2

The light gets reflected from the mirror.

Hence, when we move the mirror by a length l, the extra/less path the light has to travel is 2l (light is going and coming back)

hence, to get a path difference of λ/2 the mirror should move half of this distance only

so, the mirror should move;

l = λ/4

here, wavelength is 400nm

the length moved by the mirror = 400/4 = 100 nm

The intensity is given by the equation;

l = l1 + l2 + 2√l1l2cos(∅)

where

l1 = 2.25 mW

l2 = 2.025 mW

∅ = π

so we substitute

l = 2.25 + 2.025 - 2√(2.25 × 2.025)

l = 4.275 - 4.26907

l = 0.0059

Therefore; the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector  and the minimum intensity are;

100 nm; 0.0059 mW

Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer

A spherical drop of water carrying a charge of 42 pC has a potential of 620 V at its surface (with V = 0 at infinity). (a) What
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

0.0006091222 m

Explanation:

q = Charge = 42 pC

V = Voltage = 620 V

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

Electric potential is given by (at r = R)

V=\dfrac{q}{4\pi\epsilon R}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{q}{4\pi\epsilon V}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{42\times 10^{-12}}{4\pi\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 620}\\\Rightarrow R=0.0006091222\ m

The radius of the drop is 0.0006091222 m

How long would it take an object to reach the ground from the top of a building that is 470 feet tall? Round to the nearest tent
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

It would take the object 5.4 s to reach the ground.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of the height of a free-falling object at any given time, neglecting air resistance, is the following:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Where:

h = height of the object at time t.

h0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-32.2 ft/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

t = time

Let´s supose that the object is dropped and not thrown so that v0 = 0. Then:

h = h0 + 1/2 · g · t²

We have to find the time at which h = 0:

0 = 470 ft - 1/2 · 32.2 ft/s² · t²

Solving for t:

-470 ft = -16.1 ft/s² · t²

-470 ft / -16.1 ft/s² = t²

t = 5.4 s

Chemical changes occur as energy is transferred when molecules- - or - to form one or more new substances
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Correct options are C. As food is digested, molecule bonds are broken, allowing new molecules to form that can be used by our bodies.

D. Energy stored in organic fuels are used for heat and electricity/ When batteries are connected to a circuit, a reaction occurs inside the cell producing electrical energy.

Explanation:

The breakdown of food leads to the release of chemical energy which was first stored in food. This energy is used to drive necessary functions of the body. A series of chemical reactions are involved in the breakdown of food and changing them into useful components for the cell.

Chemical energy is stored in circuits. When the battery is connected to a circuit, the chemical energy gets transferred into electrical energy.

When a neutrally charged atom loses an electron to another atom, the result is the creation of

ionic compound. The atom that lost the electron becomes a cation, and the atom that gains an electron becomes an anion. The cation and anion bond together because they have opposite charges to form an ionic compound. The question may be looking for just cation or anion, though.
