wanted to "see" an atom, a wavelength of approximately 1.00 x 10-11 m would be
required.If photons are used, what is the minimum energy is required for obtaining
required resolution?

- What image will one see if a hologram is recorded using monochromatic light but its image is viewed in white light? Explain.arrow_forwardAs a single crystal is rotated in an x-ray spectrometer (Fig. 3.22a), many parallel planes of atoms besides AA and BB produce strong diffracted beams. Two such planes are shown in Figure P3.38. (a) Determine geometrically the interplanar spacings d1 and d2 in terms of d0. (b) Find the angles (with respect to the surface plane AA) of the n = 1, 2, and 3 intensity maxima from planes with spacing d1. Let = 0.626 and d0 = 4.00 . Note that a given crystal structure (for example, cubic) has interplanar spacings with characteristic ratios, which produce characteristic diffraction patterns. In this way, measurement of the angular position of diffracted x-rays may be used to infer the crystal structure. Figure P3.38 Atomic planes in a cubic lattice.arrow_forwardThe movable mirror of a Michelson interferometer is attached to one end of a thin metal rod of length 23.3 mm. The other end of the rod is anchored so it does not move. As the temperature of the rod changes from 15°C to 25 C , a change of 14 fringes is observed. The light source is a He Ne laser, =632.8 nm . What is the change in length of the metal bar, and what is its thermal expansion coefficient?arrow_forward
- Red sunrises occur for the same reason as red sunsets. But sunsets are usually more colorful than sunrises—especially near cities. What is your explanation?arrow_forwardColor ink-jet printers use the CMYK model. When the color ink magenta is sprayed onto a sheet of white paper, (i) why does it look link magenta under daylight? (ii) what color would it appear to be under a green light? Why? (iii) what color would it appear to be under a blue light. Why?arrow_forwardAccording to the Young-Helmholtz theory of color vision, humans have cell receptors called "cones" in their retina that have peak sensitivities in the Red, Green and Blue wavelength ranges. When light reflects off a surface, we perceive the color or colors that are reflected; other colors are absorbed by the material. Which TWO of the following statements are correct? Because leaves on a plant reflect green light when illuminated by white light, other colors are absorbed and are therefore necessary for photosynthesis. If a yellow light illuminates a white book, the reflection will cause the red and green cones of an observer to be stimulated and will send a signal to the brain by way of the optic nerve. If both a red light and a green light illuminate a white book, the reflection will cause the blue cones of an observer to be stimulated and will send a signal to the brain by way of the optic nerve. Because leaves on a plant reflect green light when illuminated by white light, the green…arrow_forward
- A lamp at a distance of 3 m above the point P on the floor of the room in P produces a glow of 100 lm/ m ^ 2.A) Calculate the luminous intensity of this lamp.B) Get a glow at another point on the floor at a distance of 1 m from P.arrow_forwardJUST NEED HELP WITH D-J! A large container holds two layers of liquid: a 10.0 cm thick layer of vegetable oil (ρ = 920 kg/m3 , n = 1.47) above a 20.0 cm thick layer of water (ρ = 1000 kg/m3 , n = 1.33). There is air (ρ = 1.20 kg/m3 , n = 1.0003) above the oil layer. Nia holds a red laser which emits 632.8 nm light to the right and down, so that the ray makes an angle of 50.0° relative to a line normal to the oil layer. a) Draw a diagram showing the layers of liquid and the path of a light ray. At each interface between media, there should be a reflected ray and a refracted ray unless there is total internal reflection at that interface (in which case write N/A for the angle of refraction). Label the angles of each ray (incident, reflected, and refracted) for each interface. b) What is the angle of reflection at the air→ oil interface? ________________________ c) What is the angle of refraction at the air→ oil interface? ________________________ d) What is the angle of incidence at the…arrow_forwardWhat is the cause of color?

- Sydney wanted to color her hair from home so she signed up for an online service that sent hair color directly to her. The service required information about the thickness of Sydney's hair to mix the color properly. They only wanted to know if it was fine, medium, or thick, but being an astute student of physics, Sydney knew she could be more precise than that! She shone a red laser pointer with a wavelength of 670 nm through a single strand of hair and a diffraction pattern appeared on the wall 1.85 m away. a) Explain why this fringe pattern appears and how it confirms the wave nature of light. What would you predict the image on the screen to look like if light were a particle instead? b) What is the thickness of Sydney's strand of hair? Explain which formula is best to use here and why?arrow_forwardSuppose I have a piece of paper that looks cyan in sunlight.
