If the separation between the openings in a laser is increased, then the distance between the interference fringes decreases

<h3>What is Interference fringe ?</h3>

Interference fringe refers to bands caused by different lights which can be found in phase or not each other.

  • Distances between laser fringes are short which is due to light wavelength.
  • The interference fringes can be estimated by knowing slit separation and wavelength.

In conclusion, if the separation between the openings in a laser is increased, then the distance between the interference fringe decreases

What best describes the relationship between the frequency of an oscillation and the period of the oscillation?
ZanzabumX [31]

Explanation:

Let f is the frequency of an oscillation and T is the period of the oscillation. There exists an inverse relationship between the frequency and the time period of the oscillation. Mathematically, it is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{T}

Also, f=\dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}

So,

T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}

The time taken to complete one oscillation is called the period of the oscillation and the number of oscillation is called the frequency if an oscillation.

A metal wire is in thermal contact with two heat reservoirs at both of its ends. Reservoir 1 is at a temperature of 781 K, and r
andreev551 [17]

Answer:2.517 J/K

Explanation:

Given

Reservoir 1 Temperature T_1=781 K

Reservoir 2 Temperature T_2=335 K

Let Q is the amount of heat Flows i.e. Q=1477 J

thus change in Entropy is given by \frac{\sum Q}{T}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{Q}{T_1}+\frac{Q}{T_2}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{1477}{781}+\frac{1477}{335}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-1.891+4.4089

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=2.517 J/K

Which of these has the least chemical energy?
madreJ [45]

The answer is option D a gallon of gasoline.

Explanation:

A gallon of gasoline has the least chemical energy. The energy content of gallon of gasoline is about 132,000 Btu. The gasoline produced is equivalent in energy terms to 4 kilowatt hours.

Gasoline has chemical potential energy stored in chemical bonds. Gasoline is called as gas or petrol, mixture of volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbons are used as fuel for internal- combustion engines. It is used as solvent for oils and fats.

Gasoline gallon equivalent is the alternative fuel taken to equal the energy content of one liquid gallon of gasoline.

Consider a situation in which you are moving two point charges such that the potential energy between them decreases. (NOTE: ign
Oxana [17]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The potential energy decreases in the case when the charges are opposite and they attract each other.

In this case there is no external energy required in order to put the charges together.

This is so because the charges are opposite and they will attract each other. Yes, the only condition should be that the charges should be alike.

Example: a negative charge and a positive charge.

While investigating the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance, students connected different batteries to differe
GuDViN [60]

Produced the model is the resistance of the circuits decreased as a battery voltage increased (option-B).

<h3>What connection does there exist between voltage and current, current and resistance, and voltage and resistance?</h3>

Ohm's Law describes how current, voltage, and resistance are related to one another. According to this, as long as the temperature doesn't change, the current flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the applied voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit.

The more work a certain quantity of electrons can accomplish at a given voltage. The quantity of electrons that are presently moving through any one point in a circuit at any particular time is known as the current. At the same voltage, a larger current can perform more work. Current times voltage equals power.
