- What does the acid test ratio state? Meaning what do the results mean?arrow_forwardAn Optical Spectrometer. You and your team are tasked with characterizing an equilateral, triangular prism to be used in an optical spectrometer. An optical spectrometer contains a dispersive element (in this case, the prism) that separates an incoming beam of light into its constituent wavelengths (or colors), and a photocell that measures the intensity of each color (wavelength) by measuring the intensity of the dispersed light as a function of angle. The index of refraction of the prism material you are using depends on the wavelength as n(A)=(1.111 x 104 nm¹) A (nm) + 1.609 An incident beam of white light impinges on the surface (see drawing) at an angle of 42.2 degrees below the normal. The prism is in air (n = 1.000). Normal Ꮎ Red (660 nm) Violet (410 nm) (a) Relative to the prism base (i.e., the horizontal in the drawing), at what angle does red light (A-660.0 nm) emerge on the opposite side?

Are the data consisting of the classifications A, B, C, and D or quantitative? Are the data consisting of the classifications A, B, C, and D qualitiative or quantitative? OA. Qualitative, because they are measured on a naturally occuring numerical scale. B. Quantitative, because they are measured on a naturally occuring numerical scale. C. Quantitative, because they can only be classified into categories. D. Qualitative, because they can only be classified into categories. *** After the data are input as 1, 2, 3, or 4, are they qualitative or quantitative? OA. Qualitative, because they cannot be meaningfully added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided. B. Qualitative, because they are measured on a naturally occurring numerical scale. OC.
