Answer:

A thin layer of oil with index of refraction ng = 1.47 is floating above the water. The index of refraction of water is nw = 1.3. The index of refraction of air is na= 1. A light with wavelength λ = 775 nm goes in from the air to oil and water.

 Part (a) Express the wavelength of the light in the oil,  λ₀, in terms of  λ  and n⁰ (b) Express the minimum thickness of the film that will result in destructive interference, t min, in terms of  λ o

(c) Express tmin in terms of  λ  and no.

(d) Solve for the numerical value of tmin in nm.

Explanation:

n₀ = 1.47

refraction of water = 1.3

refraction of air = 1

wavelength λ = 775 nm

(a) wavelength of light in water ⇒  λ₀ = λ / n₀

(b) minimum thickness of the film that will result in destructive interference

t(min) = λ₀ / 2

(c) the express t(min)

t =  λ /2n₀

(d) the thickness is

t = 775 / 2(1.47)

= 263.61 nm

A 120-g block of copper is taken from a kiln and quickly placed into a beaker of negligible heat capacity containing 300 g of wa
gavmur [86]

Answer : The correct option is, (d) 535^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of copper = 0.10cal/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 1.00cal/g^oC

m_1 = mass of copper = 120 g

m_2 = mass of water = 300 g

T_f = final temperature of mixture = 35^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of copper = ?

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 15^oC  

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

120g\times 0.10cal/g^oC\times (35-T_1)^oC=-300g\times 1.00cal/g^oC\times (35-15)^oC

T_1=535^oC

Therefore, the temperature of the kiln was, 535^oC

A 36,287 kg truck has a momentum of 907,175 kg • m/s. What is the trucks velocity.
Airida [17]

Momentum = Mass x Velocity

Put the values where they belong and solve for Velocity.

In this case, since Mass is being multiplied by Velocity, to solve for be Velocity you would divide both sides by Velocity.  The velocity will equal the momentum divided by the mass.

At the end of the school day, at exactly 2:30 pm, a group of students run out of the school building and reach the edge of the s
Fofino [41]

Explanation:

Initial time, t₁ = 2:30 pm

Final time, t₂ = 2:30:45

We need to find the motion of students in terms of time. Final time is 45 seconds more than the initial time.

Change in time,

\Delta t=t_2-t_1\\\\\Delta t=2:30:45-2.30\\\\\Delta t=45\ s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

<em>a) 318.2 W/m^2</em>

<em>b) 2.5 x 10^-4 J</em>

<em>c) 1.55 x 10^-8 v/m</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Power of laser P = 1 mW = 1 x 10^-3 W

exposure time t = 250 ms = 250 x 10^-3 s

If beam diameter = 2 mm = 2 x 10^-3 m

then

cross-sectional area of beam A = \pi d^{2} /4 = (3.142 x (2*10^{-3} )^{2})/4

A = 3.142 x 10^-6 m^2

a) Intensity I = P/A

where P is the power of the laser

A is the cros-sectional area of the beam

I = ( 1 x 10^-3)/(3.142 x 10^-6) = <em>318.2 W/m^2</em>

<em></em>

b) Total energy delivered E = Pt

where P is the power of the beam

t is the exposure time

E = 1 x 10^-3 x 250 x 10^-3 = <em>2.5 x 10^-4 J</em>

<em></em>

c) The peak electric field is given as

E = \sqrt{2I/ce_{0} }

where I is the intensity of the beam

E is the electric field

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

e_{0} = 8.85 x 10^9 m kg s^-2 A^-2

E = \sqrt{2*318.2/3*10^8*8.85*10^9}  = <em>1.55 x 10^-8 v/m</em>
