A single-slit diffraction pattern is formed on a distant screen. Assuming the angles involved are small, by what factor will the width of the central bright spot on the screen change if the slit width is doubled

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y ’= y / 2

thus when the slit width is doubled the pattern width is halved

Explanation:

The diffraction of a slit is given by the expressions

          a sin θ = m λ

where a is the width of the slit, λ is the wavelength and m is an integer that determines the order of diffraction.

          sin θ = m λ / a

If this equation

          a ’= 2 a

we substitute

          2 a sin θ'= m λ

          sin θ'= (m λ / a)  1/2

          sin θ ’= sin θ / 2

           

We can use trigonometry to find the width

         tan θ = y / L

as the angle is small

         tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

         sin θ = y / L  

         

we substitute

        y ’/ L = y/L   1/2

        y ’= y / 2

thus when the slit width is doubled the pattern width is halved

All household circuits are wired in parallel. A 1140-W toaster, a 270-W blender, and a 80-W lamp are plugged into the same outlet. (The three devices are in parallel when plugged into the same outlet.) Assume that this is the standard household 120-V circuit with a 15-A fuse.
a. What current is drawn by each device?
b. To see if this combination will blow the 15-A fuse, find the total current used when all three appliances are on.

Answers

Answer:

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

Explanation:

given data

toaster = 1140-W

blender = 270-W

lamp = 80-W

voltage = 120 V

solution

we know that current is express as

current = power ÷ voltage   ......................1

here voltage is same in all three device

so

current by toaster is

I = [tex]\frac{1140}{120}[/tex]

I = 9.5 A

and

current by blender

I = [tex]\frac{270}{120}[/tex]

I = 2.25 A

and

current by lamp is

I = [tex]\frac{80}{120}[/tex]

I = 0.667 A

so here device in parallel so

total current is = 9.5 A + 2.25 A + 0.667 A

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

A string of holiday lights has 15 bulbs with equal resistances. If one of the bulbs
is removed, the other bulbs still glow. But when the entire string of bulbs is
connected to a 120-V outlet, the current through the bulbs is 5.0 A. What is the
resistance of each bulb?

Answers

Answer:

Resistance of each bulb = 360 ohms

Explanation:

Let each bulb have a resistance r .

Since, even after removing one of the bulbs, the circuit is closed and the other bulbs glow. Therfore, the bulbs are connected in Parallel connection.

[tex] \frac{1}{r(equivalent)} = \frac{1}{r1} + \frac{1}{r2} + + + + \frac{1}{r15} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{r(equivalent)} = \frac{15}{r} [/tex]

R(equivalent) = r/15

Now, As per Ohms Law :

V = I * R(equivalent)

120 V = 5 A * r/15

r = 360 ohms

Two 1.0 nF capacitors are connected in series to a 1.5 V battery. Calculate the total energy stored by the capacitors.

Answers

Answer:

1.125×10⁻⁹ J

Explanation:

Applying,

E = 1/2CV²................... Equation 1

Where E = Energy stored in the capacitor, C = capacitance of the capacitor, V = Voltage of the battery.

Given; C = 1.0 nF,  = 1.0×10⁻⁹ F, V = 1.5 V

Substitute into equation 1

E = 1/2(1.0×10⁻⁹×1.5²)

E = 1.125×10⁻⁹ J

Hence the energy stored by the capacitor is 1.125×10⁻⁹ J

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 7.60 cm^2, separated by a distance of 1.70 mm. A 25.0-V potential difference is applied to these plates. Calculate: a. the electric field between the plates b. the surface charge density c. the capacitance d. the charge on each plate.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m

(b) 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²

(c) 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F

(d) 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C

Explanation:

(a) For a parallel plate capacitor, the electric field E between the plates is given by;

E = V / d               -----------(i)

Where;

V = potential difference applied to the plates

d = distance between these plates

From the question;

V = 25.0V

d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

E = 25.0 / 0.0017

E = 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m

(c) The capacitance of the capacitor is given by

C = Aε₀ / d

Where

C = capacitance

A = Area of the plates = 7.60cm² = 0.00076m²

ε₀ = permittivity of free space =  8.85 x 10⁻¹²F/m

d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m

C = 0.00076 x  8.85 x 10⁻¹² / 0.0017

C = 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F

(d) The charge, Q, on each plate can be found as follows;

Q = C V

Q =  3.9 x 10⁻¹² x 25.0

Q = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C

Now since we have found other quantities, it is way easier to find the surface charge density.

(b) The surface charge density, σ, is the ratio of the charge Q on each plate to the area A of the plates. i.e

σ = Q / A

σ = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹ /  0.00076

σ = 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²

Complete Question

A toroidal solenoid has 590 turns, cross-sectional area 6.20 cm^2 , and mean radius 5.00 cm .

Part A. Calculate  the coil's self-inductance.

Part B. If the current decreases uniformly from 5.00 A to 2.00 A in 3.00 ms, calculate the self-induced emf in the coil.

Part C. The current is directed from terminal a of the coil to terminal b. Is the direction of the induced emf from a to b or from b to a?

Answer:

Part A  

       [tex]L = 0.000863 \ H[/tex]

Part B  

       [tex]\epsilon = 0.863 \ V[/tex]

Part C

    From terminal a to terminal b

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The  number of turns is  [tex]N = 590 \ turns[/tex]

      The cross-sectional area is  [tex]A = 6.20 cm^2 = 6.20 *10^{-4} \ m[/tex]

      The  radius is [tex]r = 5.0 \ cm = 0.05 \ m[/tex]

       

Generally the coils self -inductance is mathematically represented as

              [tex]L = \frac{ \mu_o N^2 A }{2 \pi * r }[/tex]

Where [tex]\mu_o[/tex] is the permeability of  free space with value [tex]\mu_o = 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2[/tex]

substituting values

             [tex]L = \frac{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 590^2 6.20 *10^{-4} }{2 \pi * 0.05 }[/tex]

             [tex]L = \frac{ 2 * 10^{-7} * 590^2 6.20 *10^{-4} }{ 0.05 }[/tex]

             [tex]L = 0.000863 \ H[/tex]

Considering the Part B

      Initial current is [tex]I_1 = 5.00 \ A[/tex]

      Current at time t is [tex]I_t = 3.0 \ A[/tex]

       The  time taken is  [tex]\Delta t = 3.00 ms = 0.003 \ s[/tex]

The self-induced emf is mathematically evaluated as

          [tex]\epsilon = L * \frac{\Delta I}{ \Delta t }[/tex]          

=>         [tex]\epsilon = L * \frac{ I_1 - I_t }{ \Delta t }[/tex]

substituting values

             [tex]\epsilon = 0.000863 * \frac{ 5- 2 }{ 0.003 }[/tex]  

             [tex]\epsilon = 0.863 \ V[/tex]

The direction of the induced emf is  from a to b because according to Lenz's law the induced emf moves in the same direction as the current

This question involves the concepts of the self-inductance, induced emf, and Lenz's Law

A. The coil's self-inductance is "0.863 mH".

B. The self-induced emf in the coil is "0.58 volts".

C. The direction of the induced emf is "from b to a".

A.

The self-inductance of the coil is given by the following formula:

[tex]L=\frac{\mu_oN^2A}{2\pi r}[/tex]

where,

L = self-inductance = ?

[tex]\mu_o[/tex] = permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ N/A²

N = No. of turns = 590

A = Cross-sectional area = 6.2 cm² = 6.2 x 10⁻⁴ m²

r = radius = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Therefore,

[tex]L=\frac{(4\pi\ x\ 10^{-7}\ N/A^2)(590)^2(6.2\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m^2)}{2\pi(0.05\ m)}[/tex]

L = 0.863 x 10⁻³ H = 0.863 mH

B.

The self-induced emf is given by the following formula:

[tex]E=L\frac{\Delta I}{\Delta t}\\\\[/tex]

where,

E = self-induced emf = ?

ΔI = change in current = 2 A

Δt = change in time = 3 ms = 0.003 s

Therefore,

[tex]E=(0.000863\ H)\frac{2\ A}{0.003\ s}[/tex]

E = 0.58 volts

C.

According to Lenz's Law, the direction of the induced emf always opposes the change in flux that causes it. Hence, the direction of the induced emf will be from b to a.

In the lab, you shoot an electron towards the south. As it moves through a magnetic field, you observe the electron curving upward toward the roof of the lab. You deduce that the magnetic field must be pointing:_______.
a. to the west.
b. upward.
c. to the north.
d. to the east.
e. downward.

Answers

Answer:

a. to the west.

Explanation:

An electron in a magnetic field always experience a force that tends to change its direction of motion through the magnetic field. According to Lorentz left hand rule (which is the opposite of Lorentz right hand rule for a positive charge), the left hand is used to represent the motion of an electron in a magnetic field. Hold out the left hand with the fingers held out parallel to the palm, and the thumb held at right angle to the other fingers. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron though the field, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the particle.

In this case, if we point the thumb (which shows the direction we shot the electron) to the south (towards your body), with the palm (shows the direction of the force) facing up to the roof, then the fingers (the direction of the field) will point west.

A 70 kg man floats in freshwater with 3.2% of his volume above water when his lungs are empty, and 4.85% of his volume above water when his lungs are full.

Required:
a. Calculate the volume of air he inhales - called his lung capacity - in liters.
b. Does this lung volume seem reasonable?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

A) Vair = 1.3 L

B) Volume is not reasonable

Explanation:

A)

Assume

m to be total mass of the man

mp be the mass of the man that pulled out of the water

m1 be the mass above the water with the empty lung

m2 be the mass above the water with full lung

wp be the weight that the buoyant force opposes as a result of the air.

Va be the volume of air inside man's lungs

Fb be the buoyant force due to the air in the lung

given;

m = 78.5 kg

m1 = 3.2% × 78.5 = 2.5 kg

m2 = 4.85% × 78.5 = 3.8kg

But, mp = m2- m1

mp = 3.8 - 2.5

mp = 1.3kg

So using

Archimedes principle, the relation for formula for buoyant force as;

Fb = (m_displaced water)g = (ρ_water × V_air × g)

Where ρ_water is density of water = 1000 kg/m³

Thus;

Fb = wp = 1.3× 9.81

Fb = 12.7N

But

Fb = (ρ_water × V_air × g)

So

Vair = Fb/(ρ_water × × g)

Vair = 12.7/(1000 × 9.81)

V_air = 1.3 × 10^(-3) m³

convert to litres

1 m³ = 1000 L

Thus;

V_air = 1.3× 10^(-3) × 1000

V_air = 1.3 L

But since the average lung capacity of an adult human being is about 6-7litres of air.

Thus, the calculated lung volume is not reasonable

A double-convex thin lens is made of glass with an index of refraction of 1.52. The radii of curvature of the faces of the lens are 60 cm and 72 cm. What is the focal length of the lens

Answers

Answer:

63 cm

Explanation:

Mathematically;

The focal length of a double convex lens is given as;

1/f = (n-1)[1/R1 + 1/R2]

where n is the refractive index of the medium given as 1.52

R1 and R2 represents radius of curvature which are given as 60cm and 72cm respectively.

Plugging these values into the equation, we have:

1/f = (1.52-1)[1/60 + 1/72)

1/f = 0.0158

f = 1/0.0158

f = 63.29cm which is approximately 63cm

[tex]E = A*\frac{B_2 -B_1}{\delta t} \\\\E = 0.302*\frac{1.61-0.7}{29} \\\\E = 0.0095 \ V\\\\E = 9.5 \ mV[/tex]

(b) the magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field

E = A x B/t

E = (0.302 x 1.61) / 3.9

E = 0.1247 V

E = 124.7 mV

Therefore, the magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field is 124.7 mV

5.How does most ocean water return to the ocean in the water cycle

tysm to u who answers :)

Answers

1. The ocean water collects back in the ocean.

2. Condensation is the process by which water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water. Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds.

3. an excessive amount of water flowing from downslope along earths surface

4. A.Evaporation occurs when water is warmed by the sun.

5. The water returns into the ocean by the water cycle . It evaporates , then it condensates , then it participates ( Rains ) and then goes back into the ocean.

Hope this answer correct ✌️

Troy and Abed are running in a race. Troy finishes the race in 12 minutes. Abed finishes the race in 7 minutes and 30 seconds. If Troy is running at an average speed of 3 miles per hour and speed varies inversely with time, what is Abed’s average speed for the race?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the race be of a fixed distance x

[tex]Average Speed = \frac{Total Distance}{Total Time}[/tex]

Troy's Average speed = 3 miles/hr = x / 0.2 hr

x = 0.6 miles

Abed's Average speed = 0.6 / 0.125 = 4.8 miles/hr

UVC light used in sterilizers, has wavelengths between 100 to 280 nm. If a certain UVC wave has a wavelength of 142.9 nm, what is the energy of one of its photons in J

Answers

Answer:

The energy of one of its photons is 1.391 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of the UVC light, λ = 142.9 nm = 142.9 x 10⁻⁹ m

The energy of one photon of the UVC light is given by;

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s

f is frequency of the light

f = c / λ

where;

c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ  is wavelength

substitute in the value of f into the main equation;

E = hf

[tex]E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \\\\E = \frac{6.626*10^{-34} *3*10^{8}}{142.9*10^{-9}} \\\\E = 1.391*10^{-18} \ J[/tex]

Therefore, the energy of one of its photons is 1.391 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

Which statement accurately describes the inner planets? Uranus is one of the inner planets. The inner planets formed when the solar system cooled. The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets. The inner planets are larger than the outer planets.

Answers

The correct answer is C. The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets.

Explanation:

Our solar system includes a total of eight planets. Additionally, planets are classified into broad categories including inner planets and outer planets. The inner planets category applies to planets such as Earth, Mercury, or Mars because these are located within the asteroid belt (region of asteroids between Mars and Jupiter). Moreover, inner planets differ from others due to their composition as they are composed of rocks and metals. Also, due to this composition, these are known as terrestrial planets. According to this, the statement that best describes inner planets is "The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets".

Answer:

The answer is c.) The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets.

A resistor made of Nichrome wire is used in an application where its resistance cannot change more than 1.35% from its value at 20.0°C. Over what temperature range can it be used (in °C)?

Answers

Answer:

Pls seeattached file

Explanation:

A resistor made of Ni chrome wire is used in an application where its resistance cannot be more than 1.35 % so its temperature range will be from 33.75 to -33.75 °C.

What is Resistance?

Electrical resistance, or resistance to electricity, is a force that opposes the flow of current. Ohms are used to expressing resistance values.

When there is an electron difference between two terminals, electricity will flow from high to low. In opposition to that flow is resistance. As resistance rises, the current declines. On the other side, when the resistance falls, the current rises.

According to the question,

R = R₀ (1 + α ΔT)

(1 + 0.0135)R₀ = R₀(1 + α ΔT)

ΔT = (1 + 0.0135) / α

= 0.0135 / 0.0004

= 33.75 °C.

ΔT = [(1 - 0.0135) -1]/0.004

= -33.75 °C

A ball is thrown upward from a height of 432 feet above the​ ground, with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. From physics it is known that the velocity at time t is v (t )equals 96 minus 32 t feet per second. ​a) Find​ s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t. ​b) How long will the ball take to reach the​ ground? ​c) How high will the ball​ go?

Answers

Answer;

A)S(t)=96t-16t² +432

B)it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.

C)864feet

Explanation:

We were given an initial height of 432 feet.

And v(t)= 96-32t

A) we are to Find​ s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t

The position, or heigth, is the integrative of the velocity. So

S(t)= ∫(96-32)dt

S(t)=96t-16t² +K

S(t)=96t-16t² +432

In which the constant of integration K is the initial height, so K= 432

b) we need to know how long will the ball take to reach the​ ground

This is t when S(t)= 0

S(t)=96t-16t² +432

-16t² +96t +432=0

This is quadratic equation, if you solve using factorization method we have

t= -3 or t= 9

Therefore, , t is the instant of time and it must be a positive value.

So it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.

C)V=s/t

Velocity= distance/ time

=96=s/9sec

S=96×9

=864feet

By applying the integrations,

(a) [tex]S = 96t-16t^2+432[/tex]

(b) Time will be "t = 9".

(c) Height will be "576"

Given:

Height,

423 feet

Initial velocity,

96 feet/sec

According to the question,

(a)

Integrate v:

[tex]S = 96t-16t^2+C[/tex]

Initial Condition,

→ [tex]S = 96t-16t^2+432[/tex]

(b)

Hits the ground when,

S = 0

→ [tex]0=96t-16t^2+432[/tex]

→ [tex]t =9[/tex]

(c)

Maximum height when,

v = 0

→ [tex]0 = 96-32 t[/tex]

→ [tex]t = 3[/tex]

Now,

→ [tex]S = 96\times 3-16\times 3^2+432[/tex]

      [tex]= 576[/tex]

Thus the answer above is correct.

How much energy is required to accelerate a spaceship with a rest mass of 121 metric tons to a speed of 0.509 c?

Answers

Answer

1.07E22 Joules

Explanation;

We know that mass expands by a factor

=>>1/√[1-(v/c)²]

But v= 0.509c

So

1/√(1 - 0.509²)

=>>> 1/√(1 - 0.2591)

= >> 1/√(0.7409) = 1.16

But given that 121 tons is rest mass so 121- 1.16= 119.84 tons is kinetic energy

And we know that rest mass-energy equivalence is 9 x 10^19 joules per ton.

So Multiplying by 119.84

Kinetic energy will be 1.07x 10^22 joules

light of wavelength 550 nm is incident on a diffraction grating that is 1 cm wide and has 1000 slits. What is the dispersion of the m = 2 line?

Answers

Answer:

The dispersion is [tex]D = 2.01220 *10^{5} \ rad/m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The wavelength of the light is  [tex]\lambda = 550 \ = 550 *10^{-9} \ n[/tex]

    The width of the grating is[tex]k = 1\ cm = 0.01 \ m[/tex]

    The  number of slit is  N =  1000 slits

    The order of the maxima is  m =  2

 

Generally the spacing between the slit is mathematically represented as

         [tex]d = \frac{k}{N}[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]d = \frac{ 0.01}{1000}[/tex]

       [tex]d = 1.0 *10^{-5} \ m[/tex]

Generally the condition for constructive interference is

       [tex]d\ sin(\theta ) = m * \lambda[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]1.0 *10^{-5} sin (\theta) = 2 * 550 *10^{-9}[/tex]

       [tex]\theta = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 * 550 *10^{-9}}{ 1.0 *10^{-5}} ][/tex]

      [tex]\theta = 6.315^o[/tex]

Generally the dispersion is mathematically represented as

           [tex]D = \frac{ m }{d cos(\theta )}[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]D = \frac{ 2 }{ 1.0 *10^{-5} cos(6.315 )}[/tex]

           [tex]D = 2.01220 *10^{5} \ rad/m[/tex]
