Enter numerical answers with THREE SIGNIFICANT FIGURES.

A soap bubble of uniform thickness has an index of refraction of 1.53, and is illuminated by light with a wavelength of 580. nm.

a) Calculate the wavelength of the light in the soap bubble. (Enter THREE sig figs)
nm


Which two rays will interfere with each other?


How many ½ λ shifts must be considered, and where do these shifts (if any) occur? Briefly explain your answer.



c) What is the minimum thickness of a soap bubble such that the light is strongly reflected? (Enter THREE sig figs)
nm

A soap bubble is floating in the air. The refractive index of the bubble is n = 1.33. The width of the wall is 115 nm. The light that hits the bubble is reflected on the outer and inner surface and both interfere once they leave. The difference in phase for both for both lights will be wt, where t is the time it takes for the light to go and return through the soap layer (t = d /...

The walls of a soap bubble have about the same index of refraction as that of plain water, n=1.33, There is air both inside and outside the bubble. ( a) What wavelength ( in air) of visible light is most strongly reflected from a point on a soap bubble where its wall is 290 nm thick? To what color does this correspond?( b) Repeat part ( a) for a wall thickness of 340 nm.

Answer the following questions based on the reaction below. Report all answers to three significant figures. K2SO4(aq) + Sr(NO3)2(aq) → SrSO4(s) + 2KNO3(aq) The concentration of K2SO4 is 0.222 M at the start of the reaction, and 0.135 M after 122 seconds. The initial concentrations of the products are zero. 1. What is the average rate of reaction (in M/min) over this time period? 2. What is the average rate of change (in M/min) of K2SO4 in the first 122...
Correct any answers that have the incorrect number of significant figures.
Correct any answers that have the incorrect number of significant figures.       (a) (908.4 - 3.4) / 3.52 x 10⁴ = 0.026       (b) (1206.7 - 0.904) x 89 = 1.07 x 10⁵       (c) (876.90 + 98.1) / 56.998 = 17.11       (d) (4.55 / 407859) + 1.00098 = 1.00210

For this question you must give all answers rounded correct to exactly 3 significant figures (instead of decimal places). Recall that leading zeros are not significant (for example 0.0011 has 4 decimal places, but only 2 significant figures). To obtain more decimal places in the numbers Matlab gives you, type "format short g" first. The article "The Incorporation of Uranium and Silver by Hydrothermally Synthesized Galena'" (Econ. Geology, 1964: 1003-1024) reports on the determination of silver content of galena crystals...
