12. A glass plate 1 cm thick, of refractive index 1.50, is placed
between a point source of light of wave length 6000 Å and a
screen. The distance from the source to the screen is 4 cm.
How many waves are there between the source and the
screen?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7

Explanation:

The light travels a total of 4 cm to the screen, of that, 3 cm is in air and 1 cm is in the glass plate.

The total number of wavelengths of light between the source and screen is just the number of wavelengths in air plus the number in the glass.

To determine the number of wavelengths in air, divide the thickness of air (3 cm) by the wavelength of the light (6000 Angstroms), converting units as needed.

The refractive index of the glass is 1.5. That means that the velocity of propagation of the light in the glass is 2/3 of what it is in air, and so the wavelength of the light in glass is 2/3 of what it is in air. So, divide the thickness of glass (1 cm) by the wavelength of the light in glass (6000 * 2/3).

Add the two values for the final answer

As an admirer of Thomas Young, you perform a double-slit experiment in his honor. You set your slits 1.01 mm apart and position your screen 3.09 m from the slits. Although Young had to struggle to achieve a monochromatic light beam of sufficient intensity, you simply turn on a laser with a wavelength of 639 nm . How far on the screen are the first bright fringe and the second dark fringe from the central bright fringe

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.00195\ \text{m}[/tex]

[tex]0.00293\ \text{m}[/tex]

Explanation:

m = Order = 1

D = Distance between screen and slit = 3.09 m

d = Slit distance = 1.01 mm

[tex]\lambda[/tex] = Wavelength = 639 nm

Distance from the first bright fringe from the central bright fringe is given by

[tex]y=\dfrac{m\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{1\times 639\times 10^{-9}\times 3.09}{1.01\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow y=0.00195\ \text{m}[/tex]

Distance from the first bright fringe from the central bright fringe is [tex]0.00195\ \text{m}[/tex]

Distance from the second dark fringe from the central bright fringe is given by

[tex]y=(m+\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow y=(1+\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{639\times 10^{-9}\times 3.09}{1.01\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow y=0.00293\ \text{m}[/tex]

Distance from the second dark fringe from the central bright fringe is [tex]0.00293\ \text{m}[/tex].

A piece of wood that floats on water has a mass of 0.0175 kg. A lead sinker is tied to the wood, and the apparent mass with the wood in air and the lead sinker submerged in water is 0.0765 kg. The apparent mass with both the wood and the sinker both submerged in water is 0.0452 kg. What is the SG of the wood

Answers

Answer:

The specific gravity of the wood is 1.56

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the wood in water, [tex]M_w_{H_2O}[/tex] = 0.0175 kg

apparent mass of the wood and lead sinker submerged in water, [tex]M_w_{(air)} + M_s_{H_2O}[/tex] = 0.0765 kg

apparent mass with both the wood and the sinker both submerged in water, [tex]M_w_{H_2O} + M_s_{H_2O} = 0.0452 \ kg[/tex]

Mass of the lead sinker alone submerged in water;

[tex]M_w_{H_2O} + M_s_{H_2O} = 0.0452 \ kg\\\\0.0175 \ kg + M_s_{H_2O} = 0.0452 \ kg\\\\M_s_{H_2O} = 0.0452 \ kg - 0.0175 \ kg\\\\M_s_{H_2O} = 0.0277 \ kg[/tex]

Mass of the wood in the air;

[tex]M_w_{(air)} + M_s_{H_2O} = 0.0765 \ kg\\\\M_w_{(air)} + 0.0277 \ kg = 0.0765 \ kg\\\\M_w_{(air)} = 0.0765 \ kg - 0.0277 \ kg\\\\M_w_{(air)} = 0.0488 \ kg[/tex]

Mass of water is calculated as follows;

[tex]M_w_{(air)} - M_w_{H_2O} = M_{H_2O}\\\\0.0488 \ kg - 0.0175 \ kg = M_{H_2O}\\\\0.0313 \ kg = M_{H_2O}[/tex]

The specific gravity of the wood is calculated as follows;

[tex]Specific \ gravity\ (S.G) \ of \ wood = \frac{mass \ of \ wood\ in \ air }{mass \ of \ water} \\\\Specific \ gravity\ (S.G) \ of \ wood = \frac{0.0488}{0.0313} \\\\Specific \ gravity\ (S.G) \ of \ wood = 1.559 = 1.56[/tex]

Therefore, the specific gravity of the wood is 1.56

Two scientists are experimenting with pure samples of isotope X, a highly radioactive substance. The first scientist has a sample with a mass of 20 grams. He measures a half-life of 232 seconds. The second scientist has a sample of the same substance with a mass of 80 grams. What is the half-life that she is most likely to measure?

Answers

Answer:

Half-life does not depend on sample size, only on the constituents of the sample.

The second scientist should also observe a half-life of about 232 sec or 40 grams of  X remaining after 232 sec.  

Answer:

As it is the same substance, the half life will remain at 232 seconds.

Explanation:

Verified with correct test results.

After the initial experiment, students wondered how a person's weight would influence the results. They conducted a second experiment to determine if the mass of an object affected friction, assuming the types of surfaces remained constant. A spring scale was attached to a wooden block (1 kg). The block was placed on a wooden board and the spring scale was used to pull the block. The magnitude of the force required to start the block moving was recorded in the data table. The experiment was repeated using two, three, and four blocks. The data can be seen in the data table at the top of the page. What is the relationship between static friction and weight?

the ice and steam point on a thermometer are found to be 96ml apart. what temperature is recorded when the length of mercury thread is 33.6ml above the ice point

Answers

Answer:

33.6 / 96   is the fraction of the temperature between ice and freezing

33.6 / 96 = .35

So C = .35 * 100 = 35 deg C  where the ice point would be 0 deg C

You can convert C to F

F = 9 / 5 * C + 32 = 9/5 * 35 + 32 = 95 deg F

In free fall, where does an object have the slowest speed? *
O Vi
O vf
Vtop
O more than one is correct

Answers

Answer:

vi and vtop = 0

Explanation:

Free fall is a motion of a body in which the only force acting of the body is the Gravitational Force. In this motion body moves with constant acceleration i.e acceleration due to gravity.

When an object is thrown downward from a non zero height say h the motion is referred to as free fall with initial velocity of object beign zero. Hence v=0

In free fall, an object have the slowest speed at the beginning of the motion which is at the top before the object starts to fall. [tex](V_i \ and \ V_{top})[/tex]

During a free fall, the object subjected to only acceleration due to gravity. The velocity of object increases as the object moves downwards and eventually becomes maximum before the object hits the ground.

The final velocity of the object is the greatest while the initial velocity of the object at the top before the free fall is the slowest.

[tex]V_f > V_i \ or\ V_{top}[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that during a free fall, the velocity of the object increases downwards. The slowest speed can found at the beginning of the motion.

The drawing shows four sheets of polarizing material, each with its transmission axis oriented differently. Light that is polarized in the vertical direction is incident from the left and has an average intensity of 20 W/m2. Determine the average intensity of the light that emerges on the right in the drawing (a) when sheet A alone is removed, (b) when sheet B alone is removed, (c) when sheet C alone is removed, and (d) when sheet D alone is removed.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

At the point when light is vertically polarized is incident on the polarizer whose axes are situated at angle points [tex]\theta _1 , \theta _2 , \theta _3[/tex] the intensity power in the wake of going through all the polarisers is given by the Malus law, applied threefold for every one of the three axes.

[tex]I = I_o \ cos \theta _1 \ cos \theta _2 \ cos \theta _ 3[/tex]

The heading of the direction of the polarization is equivalent to the pivoted axes of the polarizer provided that light is an electromagnetic wave, its course of polarization is therefore controlled by the electric field part.

a)

When sheet A is removed, the transmitted light goes through B, at 30°.

[tex]I = I_o \ cos ^2 \theta _1 \ cos ^2 \theta _2 \ cos^2 \theta _3[/tex]

[tex]I = 20 \ cos ^2 30 \ cos ^2 60 \ cos ^2 30[/tex]

[tex]I = 2.81 \ W/m^2[/tex]

b)

When B is removed, No light passes since the axis of A and the axis of C are perpendicular to each other.

c)

When C is removed, the intensity is indeed zero since the axes are aligned and adjusted at 90° to one another.

[tex]\mathbf{d) \ I - I_o cos^2 (0) cos^2 (30) \ cos^2 (60)}[/tex]

Lithium was one of the metals studied by the American physicist Robert Millikan in his research on the photoelectric effect. When illuminated with blue light of frequency 6.64 x 10" Hz, the photoelectrons ejected from a lithium surface have a maximum kinetic energy of 0.332 eV. What is the threshold frequency for lithium? For this problem, let the value of Planck's constant, h, be 6.63 x 10J's

Answers

Answer:

 f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was correctly explained by Einstein assuming that the radiation is composed of photons, which behave like particles.

           hf = K + Ф

It indicates the frequency and the kinetic energy, let's look for the work function

          Ф = hf - K

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          K = 0.332 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 eV) = 0.5312 10⁻⁻¹⁹ J

let's calculate

          Ф = 6.63 10⁻⁻³⁴  6.64 10¹¹ - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 4.40 10⁻²² - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ J

for the minimum frequency that produces photoelectrons, the kinetic energy is zero

           hf = Ф  

           f = Ф / h

           f = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴

           f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz
