A soap film (n = 1.33) is formed in a loop of wire that is mounted vertically is not exactly uniform in thickness because of its weight, but wedge-shaped in cross section. When the film is illuminated with violet light of wavelength 405 nm, one sees that a distance of 2.20 cm separates two bright fringes that are 4 orders apart. By how much does the film differ in thickness over this distance?

A jumper with a mass of 90 kg is held at rest at the top of a 100 m high ramp. The jumper is then released to water. (The gravitational field strength is 9.8 m/s2 ) Calculate the change in gravitational potential energy of the jumper when he reaches the ground (the point Y) in kilojoule. How would you calculate the magnitude of kinetic energy of the jumper at point Y? (Assume no energy is transferred or lost during). A...
