Answer:

13 m/s

Explanation:

I assume we are ignoring friction.

The boy's PE will all be converted to KE at the bottom of the hill.

to find PE = mgh   we need to know h

   h = 50 sin 10 = 8.68 meters

     then:    PE = 20 * 9.81 * 8.68 =<u> 1703.49</u> j

KE = 1/2 m v^2 = <u>1703 .49</u>

            v = 13 m/s

Suppose you had the same laser and diffraction grating from the previous question but now you had a flat detection screen. You w
kolezko [41]

Answer:

measuring the zero intensity point, we can deduce the movement of the screen.

The distance from the center of the pattern to the first zero is proportional to the distance to the screen,

Explanation:

The expression for the diffraction phenomenon is

           a sin θ = m λ

for the case of destructive interference. In general the detection screen is quite far from the grid, let's use trigonometry to find the angles

           tan θ = y / L

     

in these experiments the angles are small

          tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

          sunt θ = y / L

we substitute

          a \frac{y}{L}= m  λ

           y = m L λ / a

therefore, by carefully measuring the zero intensity point, we can deduce the movement of the screen.

 

The distance from the center of the pattern to the first zero is proportional to the distance to the screen, so you can know where the displacement occurs, it should be clarified that these displacements are very small so the measurement system must be capable To measure quantities on the order of hundredths of a millimeter, a micrometer screw could be used.

When friction slows a sliding block___
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

When friction slows a sliding block, <u>the kinetic energy of the block is transformed into internal energy .</u>

<em>The frictional movement of two surfaces over one another leads to the conversion of some of their kinetic energies to another energy - heat or thermal energy. Hence, the temperatures of the objects are raised in the process. </em>

<u>Therefore, when a sliding block is slowed down due to friction, some of the kinetic energy of the block would be transformed into internal energy in the form of heat.</u>

The correct option is A.
