Light of wavelength 519 nm passes through two slits. In the interference pattern on a screen 4.6 m away, adjacent bright fringes are separated by 5.2 mm in the general vicinity of the center of the pattern. What is the separation of the two slits?

Answer:

2.2 ft

Explanation:

0.65 lb / 1 ft = 1.4 lb / x

x ≈ 2.2 ft

Answer:

Fad = 28.8 kN

Fbd = 16.4 kN

Fcd = 28.1 kN

Explanation:

First, find the length of each cable.

AD = √((2 m)² + (0.5 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

AD = √10.5 m

AD ≈ 3.24 m

BD = √((1.5 m)² + (1 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

BD = √9.5 m

BD ≈ 3.08 m

CD = √((1 m)² + (1 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

CD = √8.25 m

CD ≈ 2.87 m

Next, use similar triangles to find the x, y, and z components of each tension force.

Fadx = 2/3.24 Fad = 0.617 Fad

Fady = 0.5/3.24 Fad = 0.154 Fad

Fadz = 2.5/3.24 Fad = 0.772 Fad

Fbdx = 1.5/3.08 Fbd = 0.487 Fbd

Fbdy = 1/3.08 Fbd = 0.324 Fbd

Fbdz = 2.5 / 3.08 Fbd = 0.811 Fbd

Fcdx = 1/2.87 Fcd = 0.348 Fcd

Fcdy = 1/2.87 Fcd = 0.348 Fcd

Fcdz = 2.5/2.87 Fcd = 0.870 Fcd

Now sum the forces in the x, y, and z directions:

∑Fx = ma

-0.617 Fad + 0.487 Fbd + 0.348 Fcd = 0

∑Fy = ma

-0.154 Fad − 0.324 Fbd + 0.348 Fcd = 0

∑Fz = ma

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 Fbd − 0.870 Fcd = 0

To solve this system of equations algebraically, start by subtracting the first two equations, eliminating Fcd.

-0.463 Fad + 0.811 Fbd = 0

0.811 Fbd = 0.463 Fad

Fbd = 0.571 Fad

Substitute into either of the first two equations:

-0.617 Fad + 0.487 (0.571 Fad) + 0.348 Fcd = 0

-0.617 Fad + 0.278 Fad + 0.348 Fcd = 0

-0.339 Fad + 0.348 Fcd = 0

0.348 Fcd = 0.339 Fad

Fcd = 0.975 Fad

Now substituting into the third equation:

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 Fbd − 0.870 Fcd = 0

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 (0.571 Fad) − 0.870 (0.975 Fad) = 0

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.463 Fad − 0.849 Fad = 0

60 kN − 2.083 Fad = 0

Fad = 28.8 kN

Solving for the other two tension forces:

Fbd = 0.571 Fad = 16.4 kN

Fcd = 0.975 Fad = 28.1 kN

Answer:

The period of motion is 0.5 second.

Explanation:

Given;

extension of the spring, x = 3.8 cm = 0.038 m

mass of the object, m = 13 g = 0.013 kg

Determine the force constant of the spring, k;

F = kx

k = F / x

k = mg / x

k = (0.013 x 9.8) / 0.038

k = 3.353 N/m

When the object is replaced with a block of mass 20 g, the period of motion is calculated as;

[tex]T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\\\T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{0.02}{3.353} } \\\\T = 0.5 \ second[/tex]

Therefore, the period of motion is 0.5 second.

Answer:

The power delivered by the battery is 17.04 W

Explanation:

Power through a circuit is given as

P = IV    ....1

where P is the power

I is the current through the circuit

V is the voltage through the circuit

The voltage in a circuit is given as

V = IR    ....2

Let us take the value of each resistor as equal to R

when connected in series, the total resistance will be

[tex]R_{t}[/tex] = R + R = 2R

If we assume constant voltage through the circuit, then from equation 2, the current in this case is

I = V/2R

If the resistors are connected in parallel, then the total resistance will be

[tex]\frac{1}{R_{t} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{R}[/tex] +

[tex]R_{t}[/tex] = R/2

The current in this case will be increased since the resistance is reduced

I = 2V/R

comparing the two situations, we can see that the current increased when connected in parallel to a ratio of

[tex]\frac{2V}{R}[/tex] ÷  [tex]\frac{V}{2R}[/tex] =  

This means that the current increased 4 times

From equation 1, we can see that electrical power is proportional to the current at a constant voltage, therefore, the power will also increase by four times to

P = 4 x 4.26 = 17.04 W

Explanation:

Answer:

1.227 m

Explanation:

Given that

Minimum wavelength is 410 nm

Maximum wavelength is 750 nm

Grating is 7800 slits/cm

Distance is 3.2 m

To solve this question, we would use the formula

sin θ = λ/d

sin θ = (410*10^-9) / (0.01/7800)

Sin θ = 410*10^-9 / 1.282*10^-6

Sin θ = 0.32 and θ = 18.67 degrees

For the second wavelength = 750 nm

sin θ = [(0.32x750)/410]

sin θ = (240 / 410)

sin θ = 0.5853 or

θ = 35.8 degrees

And finally, the width of spectrum would be

3.2[tan 35.8 - tan 18.67]

3.2 * 0.3833

Answer:

33.89 m

Explanation:

We must first obtain the acceleration of the car from;

F=ma

Where

F= force= 9500 N

m= mass of the car= 1000kg

a= acceleration

a= F/m= 9500/1000

a= 9.5 m/s^2

From;

V^2=u^2 + 2as

Where;

V= final velocity

u= initial velocity

s= distance covered

a= acceleration

s= v^2 -u^2/2a

s= (30)^2 -(16)^2/2×9.5

s= 900 - 256/19

s= 644/19

s= 33.89 m

The distance is 33.89 m

The first step is to calculate the acceleration

F= ma

force= 9500N

mass= 1000 kg

9500= 1000 × a

a= 9500/1000

= 9.5 m/s

v²= u² + 2as

30²= 16² + 2(9.5)(s)

900= 256 + 19s

900-256= 19s

644= 19s

s= 644/19

s= 33.89 m

Hence the distance traveled by the car is 33.89 m

Answer:

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

Explanation:

In the photoelectric effect, the energy of the incoming photon is usually used in part to extract the photoelectron from the material (work function) and then the rest is converted into kinetic energy of the photoelectron which is given by the formula;

K_max = hf - Φ

where;

hf represents the energy of the incoming photon

h is the Planck's constant

f is the light frequency

Φ is the work function of the material

K_max is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.

From the question, we are told that no current flows unless the wavelength is less than 540 nm. This means that when the wavelength has this value, the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is zero i.e K_max = 0. Thus the energy of the incoming photons is just enough to extract the photoelectrons from the material.

Thus,

hf - Φ = 0

hf = Φ - - - (1)

We are given the wavelength as;

λ = 540 nm = 540 × 10^(-9) m

Now, let's find the frequency of the light by using the relationship between frequency and wavelength. The equation is;

f = c/λ

Where c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

f = (3 × 10^(8))/(540 × 10^(-9))

f = 5.56 × 10^(14) Hz

Thus, from equation 1,we can now find the work function;

Φ = hf

h is Planck's constant and has a value of 6.626 × 10^(-34) J.s

Thus;

Φ = 6.626 × 10^(-34) × 5.56 × 10^(14)

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the shortest wavelength in the series is shown below:-

[tex]\frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} )[/tex]

[tex]\lambda[/tex] represents wavelength

R represents Rydberg's constant

[tex]n_f[/tex] represents Final energy states

and [tex]n_i[/tex] represents initial energy states

[tex]= 1218888.889 m^{-1}[/tex]

Explanation:

The magnitude of free fall acceleration at the surface of earth is given by the following formula:

g = GM/R²   ----- equation 1

where,

g = free fall acceleration

G = Universal Gravitational Constant

M = Mass of Earth

R = Distance between the center of earth and the object

So, in our case,

R = R + 2 R = 3 R

Therefore,

g' = GM/(3R)²

g' = (1/9) GM/R²

using equation 1:

g' = g/9

g' = (9.8 m/s)/9

g' = 1.09 m/s²

Answer:

Explanation:

Surface of earth,

[tex]g = \frac{GM}{R^2}\\\\g = 9.8m/s^2[/tex]

free fall acceleration at height h,

[tex]g_h = \frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}[/tex]

where

G = gravitational constant

R = Radius of earth

M = mass of earth

therefore,

[tex]\frac{g_h}{g} = \frac{\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}}{\frac{GM}{R^2}}\\\\ \frac{g_h}{g} = \frac{R^2}{(R+h)^2}\\\\g_h = g\frac{R^2}{(R+h)^2}[/tex]

Where height h = 2R

[tex]g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(R+2R)^2}\\\\g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(3R)^2}\\\\g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(9R^2}\\\\g_h = 1.09m/s^2[/tex]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 3.846 x 10⁻⁵ T.

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the flat circular loop, N = 18 turns

radius of the loop, R = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

current through the wire, I = 0.51 A

The magnetic field through the center of the loop is given by;

[tex]B = \frac{N\mu_o I}{2R}[/tex]

Where;

μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A

[tex]B = \frac{N\mu_o I}{2R} \\\\B = \frac{18*4\pi*10^{-7} *0.51}{2*0.15} \\\\B = 3.846 *10^{-5} \ T[/tex]

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 3.846 x 10⁻⁵ T.

Answer:

0.1 kg or 100 g

Explanation:

The length of the wire = 0.5 m

the field magnitude = 0.98 T

the current through the wire = 2.0 A

magnetic force due to a wire carrying current is

F = [tex]IlB[/tex]

where

F is the force

[tex]I[/tex] is the current = 2 A

[tex]l[/tex] is the length of the wire

B is the magnetic field strength

Substituting, we have

F = 2 x 0.5 x 0.98 = 0.98 N

This force balances the weight of the mass

weight = mg

where m is the mass of the wire

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

therefore, weight = m x 9.81 = 9.81m

equating this weight with the force, we have

0.98 = 9.81m

m = 0.98/9.81 = 0.099 kg ≅ 0.1 kg or 100 g

Answer:

We know that the maximum angle that a light ray can wake with the wall of the core is equipment to the minimum angle with the normal of the core that will give rise in total internal reflection. so using Snell's law the angle is subtracted from 90° to get the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber.

So using

n1sinစ1. = n2sinစ2

1.6sin(x1) = 1.48sin(90),

But sin(90)=1

1.6sin(စ1) = 1.48,

sin(စ1) = 1.48/1.6

စ = 68°

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the Snell's law formula to solve this question which states that the ratio of the sine of angle of incidence to the sine of angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media. This constant is known as the refractive index for the given pair of media. Mathematically,

n = sin(i)/sin(r) where;

i is the angle of incidence

r is the angle of refraction.

n is the refractive index.

Given the refractive index of the optical fibre n₁ = 1.60 and that of cladding n₂ = 1.48

n₂/n₁ = sin(i)/sin(r)

The light ray can make with the wall of the core when its angle of refraction is 90⁰. The angle of incidence at this maximum point is known as the critical angle.

On substitution:

1.48/1.60 = sin(i)/sin90

1.48/1.60  = sin(i)/1

sin(i) = 1.48/1.60

sin(i) = 0.925

i = sin⁻¹0.925

i = 67.66⁰

Hence the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber is 67.66⁰.

After first 24 hrs, the amount = 2

After next 24 hrs = 4

After next 24 hrs = 8

After next 24 hrs = 16

After next 24 hrs = 32

After next 24 hrs = 64

After next 24 hrs = 128

After next 24 hrs = 256

Total time taken to reach 256 = 24 x 8 = 192 hrs

For the bacteria culture on the rocket that travels at a speed of 0.893c relative to the earth, this time is contracted by the relationship

t = t'(1 - ¥^2)^0.5

Where t is the contracted time =?

t' is the time on earth

¥ = v/c

Where v is the speed of the rocket

c is the speed of light

since v = 0.893c

¥ = 0.893

Substituting, we have

t = 192 x (1 - 0.893^2)^0.5

t = 192 x 0.2025^0.5

t = 192 x 0.45 = 86.4 hrs

Answer:

The initial kinetic energy of the bullet is closest to 491.87 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m₁ = 18g = 0.018kg

mass of block, m₂ = 10kg

height moved by the block, h = 9 mm = 0.009 m

time taken for the bullet to travel through the block, t = 0.001s

let the initial velocity of the bullet = v₁

let the final velocity of the bullet = v₂

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

initial momentum = final momentum

0.018v₁ = v₂(0.018 + 10)

0.018v₁ = 10.018v₂ -----equation (1)

Apply the law of conservation of energy when the bullet lifts the block through 9mm

mgh = ¹/₂mv₂²

gh = ¹/₂v₂²

v₂² = 2gh

v₂ = √2gh

v₂ = √(2 x 9.8 x 0.009)

v₂ = 0.42 m/s

Substitute in v₂ in equation 1, to determine the initial velocity of the bullet;

0.018v₁ = 10.018v₂

0.018v₁  =  10.018(0.42)

0.018v₁  = 4.208

v₁ = 4.208 / 0.018

v₁ = 233.78 m/s

Now, determine the initial kinetic energy of the bullet;

K.E₁ = ¹/₂m₁v₁²

K.E₁ = ¹/₂(0.018)(233.78)²

K.E₁ = 491.87 J

Therefore, the initial kinetic energy of the bullet is closest to 491.87 J

Answer:

I know the answer

Explanation:

We want to choose the film thickness such that destructive interference occurs between the light reflected from the air-film interface (call it wave 1) and from the film-lens interface (call it wave 2). For destructive interference to occur, the phase difference between the two waves must be an odd multiple of half-wavelengths.

You can think of the phases of the two waves as second hands on a clock; as the light travels, the hands tick-tock around the clock. Consider the clocks on the two waves in question. As both waves travel to the air-film interface, their clocks both tick-tock the same time-no phase difference. When wave 1 is reflected from the air-film boundary, its clock is set forward 30 seconds; i.e., if the hand was pointing toward 12, it's now pointing toward 6. It's set forward because the index of refraction of air is smaller than that of the film.

Now wave 1 pauses while wave two goes into and out of the film. The clock on wave 2 continues to tick as it travels in the film-tick, tock, tick, tock.... Clock 2 is set forward 30 seconds when it hits the film-lens interface because the index of refraction of the film is smaller than that of the lens. Then as it travels back through the film, its clock still continues ticking. When wave 2 gets back to the air-film interface, the two waves continue side by side, both their clocks ticking; there is no change in phase as they continue on their merry way.

So, to recap, since both clocks were shifted forward at the two different interfaces, there was no net phase shift due to reflection. There was also no phase shift as the waves travelled into and out from the air-film interface. The only phase shift occured as clock 2 ticked inside the film.

Call the thickness of the film t. Then the total distance travelled by wave 2 inside the film is 2t, if we assume the light entered pretty much normal to the interface. This total distance should equal to half the wavelength of the light in the film (for the minimum condition; it could also be 3/2, 5/2, etc., but that wouldn't be the minimum thickness) since the hand of the clock makes one revolution for each distance of one wavelength the wave travels (right?).

v₀ = 15.6 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -10 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (15.6 m/s)² + 2 (-10 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 12.2 m

Given,

Finding the initial kinetic energy,

[tex]\large{ \boxed{ \rm{K.E. = \frac{1}{2}m {v}^{2}}}}[/tex]

⇛ KE = (1/2)mv²

⇛ KE = (1/2)(0.042)(15.6)²

⇛ KE = 5.11 J

|| ⚡By conservation of energy, the potential energy at the highest point will also be 5.11 J, since there is no kinetic energy at the highest point because the ball is not moving (we neglect energy lost due to air resistance, heat, sound, etc.) ⚡||

So, we have:

[tex] \large{ \boxed{ \rm{P.E. = mgh}}}[/tex]

⇛ h = PE/(mg)

⇛ h = 5.11 J /(0.042 × 9.8)

⇛ h = 12.41 m

✏The ball will rise upto a height of 12.41 m

Answer:

The volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both moles and temperature remain constant, we can use the Boyle's law that relates the volume and pressure as an inversely proportional relationship:

[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]

Thus, since the pressure increases by a factor of 5.1 (statement), we have:

[tex]P_2=5.1P_1[/tex]

Thus, the final volume is:

[tex]V_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} =\frac{P_1V_1}{5.1P_1}\\\\V_2=\frac{10}{51}V_1[/tex]

It means that the volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

Regards.
