    Visible Light Reflection from Oil-Water Interface in Parking Lot

    A tiny layer of oil (n = 1.25) is situated on top of a water puddle (n = 1.33) in a parking lot. If the thickness of the oil is 242 nm, the what color(s) of visible light will give a strong reflection? 2t=m*lambda/n2 2t=242nm/1.25 and then 2t=242nm/1.33 i just don't know what goes where...

    How Do I Calculate Velocity from Mass and Kinetic Energy?

    hi I am new and new to physics i am have a lot of trouble with this problem mass =1.3kg 41.5J how do i get the velocity so far i have it wrote like this 41.5J=1/2(1.3kg)(v)^2 but don't know how else to do please help thanks ron
