In a vacuum, the wavelength is 589 nm. Light passes through a thin layer with refractive index n=1.93 and thickness is 0.76 mm. How many wavelength fit into the layer?

This problem has been solved! see the answera non-uniform fire escape ladder is 6.0m long whenextended to the icy alley below. it is held at the top by africtionless pivot, and there is neglibible frictional force fromthe icy surface at the bottom. the ladder weighs 250n, and it'scenter of gravity is 2.0m along the ladder from the bottom. amother and child of total weight 750n are on the ladder 1.5m fromthe pivot. the ladder makes an angle θ with the horizontal.find the magnitude and direction ofa) the force exerted by the icy alley on the ladderb) the force exerted by the ladder on the pivotc) do your answers in part a and b depend on the angle?

Argon is adiabatically compressed from an initial volume of 16 liters to a final volume of 2 liters. by what factor do the following quantities change? do they increase or decrease? (a) the rms speed (b) the thermal energy of the gas (c) the molar specific heat cv (d) the pressure
