The answer is C because when white light enters a prism, its gets separated into component colors which are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. This can also be referred to as <span>dispersion.</span>

A beam of unpolarized light with intensity I0 falls first upon a polarizer with transmission axis θTA,1 then upon a second polar
loris [4]

Answer:

The intensity I₂ of the light beam emerging from the second polarizer is zero.

Explanation:

Given:

Intensity of first polarizer = Io/2

For the second polarizer, the intensity is equal:

I_{2} =\frac{I_{o} }{2} (cos\theta )^{2} =\frac{I_{o} }{2} (cos90)^{2} =0

Consider two waves defined by the wave functions y1(x,t)=0.50msin(2π3.00mx+2π4.00st) and y2(x,t)=0.50msin(2π6.00mx−2π4.00st). Wh
guapka [62]

Answer:

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Explanation: comparing the wave equation above with the general wave equation

y(x,t) = Asin(2Πft + 2Πx/¶)

Let ¶ be the wavelength

A is the amplitude

f is the frequency

t is the time

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Which one of the following represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom? (arranged as n, l, m l ,
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The correct option that represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom is;

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2.

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that the available options where the set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom are arranged as n, l, m l , and ms are;

4, 4, 4, 1/2

4, 3, -3, 1/2

4, 3, 0, 0

4, 5, 7, -1/2

4, 4, -5, 1/2

Let us label them as a to as follows

(a) 4, 4, 4, 1/2

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2

(c) 4, 3, 0, 0

(d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2

(e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2

Next we note the rules for the assignment and arrangement of quantum numbers are as follows

Number                                   Symbol                Possible values

Principal Quantum Number  .......n........................1, 2, 3, ......n

Angular momentum quantum

number...............................................l.........................0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)

Magnetic Quantum Number........m₁......................-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l  

Spin Quantum Number.................m_s.....................+1/2, -1/2

We are meant to analyze each of the arrangement for acceptability.

Therefore for (a),

we note that the angular momentum quantum number, l =4 , is equal to the principal quantum number n =4 which violates the rule as the maximum value of the angular momentum quantum number is (n-1) where the maximum value of the principal quantum number is n.

Therefore (a) is not acceptable.

(b) Here we note that

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -3 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2 represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(c) Here we have

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 0 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 0 ∉ (+1/2, -1/2) → not acceptable

Therefore (c) 4, 3, 0, 0 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(d) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 5 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 7 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = -1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(e) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 4 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -5 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

What is the y component of a vector defined as 12.2m at 81.5°?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a displacement vector since it is defined in terms of distance (meters, to be exact). The way you find the y-component is

V_y=Vsin\theta which says that you multiply the magnitude of the vector (its length) by the sin of the direction (the angle):

V_y=12.2sin(81.5) and get

V_y=12.1 m
