3- Using a Michelson,
we want to measure the
expansion coefficient of
a rod. If we place the rod
in
such a way that one of
the Michelson mirrors is
connected to it and the
next mirror is
completely
fixed, the fringes will
change as the rod is
heated and enlarged. If
the length of the rod is
20 cm and
its expansion rate is 50
micrometers due to a
temperature change of
50 degrees, what is the
expansion coefficient of
the rod (the wavelength
of light is 500 nm) how
many times does the
central fringe move
(brighten and darken)?
Which of the following is a TRUE statement about light?
O Red light travels slower than ultraviolet light.
O The energy of light increases with its wavelength.
Infrared light has a longer wavelength that ultraviolet light.
Light of all frequencies has the same energy.
O The energy of light decreases as its frequency increases.

Next > IIarrow_forward(a) A homeowner has a solar water heater installed on the roof of his house (as shown). The heater is a flat, closed box with excellent thermal insulation. Its interior is painted black, and its front face is made of insulating glass. Its emissivity for visible light is 0.900, and its emissivity for infrared light is 0.700. Light from the noontime Sun is incident perpendicular to the glass with an intensity of 1 000 W/m2, and no water enters or leaves the box. Find the steady-state temperature of the box’s interior. (b) What If? The homeowner builds an identical box with no water tubes. It lies flat on the ground in front of the house. He uses it as a cold frame, where he plants seeds in early spring. Assuming the same noontime Sun is at an elevation angle of 50.0°, find the steady-state temperature of the interior of the box when its ventilation slots are tightly closed.arrow_forward( Why? From fireworks to stars, the color of light is useful in finding out what's in matter. The emission of g by hydrogen and other atoms has played a key role in understanding the electronic structure of atoms. Trace materials, such as evidence from a crime scene, lead in paint or mercury in drinking water, can be identified by heating or burning the materials and examining the color(s) of light given off in the form of bright-line spectra.
