What does the Michelson interferometer do?

Selectively filter certain wavelengths from a beam of I.R. radiation
None of these
Modulate the I.R. signal at a lower frequency, so that it can be observed by a detector
Split a polychromatic beam of radiation into its component wavelengths

When radiation energy is absorbed by a spin 1/2 nucleus in a magnetic field, what happens?

The processional frequency of the nucleus increases
The nucleus spins faster
None of these
The angle of precession flips so that the magnetic moment of the nucleus opposes the applied field
