A thin film with an index of refraction of 1.60 is placed in one of the beams of a Michelson interferometer. If this causes a shift of 8 bright fringes in the pattern produced by light of wavelength 580 nm, what is the thickness of the film

3.867 μm

Explanation:

The index of refraction, μ = 1.6

Wavelength of the light, λ = 580 nm

N2 - N1 = (2L / λ) (n2 - n1), Making L subject of formula, we have

(N2 - N1) λ = 2L (n2 - n1)

L = [(N2 - N1) * λ] / 2(n2 - n1)

L = (8 * 580) / 2(1.6 - 1.0)

L = 4640 nm / 1.2

L = 3867 nm or 3.867 μm

Therefore we can come to the conclusion that the thickness of the film is 3.867 nm

emily ruth's annual premium is $1058.50

step-by-step explanation:

emily ruth is a female of 27 years age purchasing 20 year endowment insurance with face value $25000.

from the given table,

for females, the age of a male 3 years younger should be used.

so, we have to check for 24 year male for 20 year endowment.

it is 42.34 for every $1000 face value.

for a face value of $25000,

it is 25 * 42.34 = $1058.50

∴ emily ruth's annual premium is $1058.50
