Three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order can be produced in addition to the m=0 order.

The ruling separation is d=1/(470mm-1)

$= 2.1 \times 10 {}^{ - 3}mm$

Diffraction lines occurs at an angle θ such that dsin=mλ,when λ is the wavelength and m is an integer.

Notice that for a given order,the line associated with a long wavelength is produced at a greater angle than the line associated with shorter wavelength.

we take λ to be the longest wavelength in the visible spectrum (538nm) and find the greatest integer value of m such that θ is less than 90°.

That is,find the greater integer value of m for which mλ<d.

since,d/λ

$= 538 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} m/2.1 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}$

There are three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order.

The second and third orders overlap.

How are light years used to measure distances in the universe

FinnZ [79.3K]

A light year is a unit of distance. It is a distance that light can travel in a years time which is six trillion miles. It is used to measure the distances in space. To take one example, the distance to the next nearest big galaxy, the Andromeda Galaxy, from earth is 21,000,000,000,000,000,000 km.

Robert Hook discovered cells when viewing a _____ under a microscope.

sp2606 [1]

What you need to do while answering this questions, is ask yourself what has cells - only if a thing has cells can you see those cells under a microscope. Objects of animal and plant origin have cells, so blood, plant and cork (made of tree bark) can have cells, and a box too, if it's made of wood. So we can''t exclude any answers based on this. We must then know the story of Robert Hook - and it was in fact a cork. He did this discovery around 1655. At the time his main interest was the microscope rather than the cork, and he used to cork to demonstrate the function of the microscope. The correct answer is CORK.

(a) If two sound waves, one in a gas medium and one in a liquid medium, are equal in intensity, what is the ratio of the pressur

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

(a) The ratio of the pressure amplitude of the waves is 43.21

(b) The ratio of the intensities of the waves is 0.000535

Explanation:

Given;

density of gas, $\rho _g$ = 2.27 kg/m³

density of liquid, $\rho _l$ = 972 kg/m³

speed of sound in gas, $C_g$ = 376 m/s

speed of sound in liquid, $C_l$ = 1640 m/s

The of the sound wave is given by;

$I = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho C} \\\\P_o^2 = 2 \rho C I\\\\p_o = \sqrt{2 \rho CI}$

Where;

$P_o$ is the pressure amplitude

$P_o_g= \sqrt{2 \rho _g C_gI} -------(1)\\\\P_o_l= \sqrt{2 \rho _l C_lI}---------(2)\\\\\frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \frac{\sqrt{2 \rho _l C_lI}}{\sqrt{2 \rho _g C_gI}} \\\\\frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \rho _l C_lI}{2 \rho _g C_gI} }\\\\ \frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \sqrt{\frac{ \rho _l C_l}{ \rho _g C_g} }\\\\ \frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \sqrt{\frac{ (972)( 1640)}{ (2.27)( 376)} }\\\\\frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = 43.21$

(b) when the pressure amplitudes are equal, the ratio of the intensities is given as;

$I = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho C}\\\\I_g = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho _g C_g}-------(1)\\\\I_l = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho _l C_l}-------(2)\\\\\frac{I_l}{I_g} = (\frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho _l C_l})*(\frac{2\rho_gC_g}{P_o^2} )\\\\\frac{I_l}{I_g} = \frac{\rho _gC_g}{\rho_lC_l} \\\\\frac{I_l}{I_g} = \frac{(2.27)(376)}{(972)(1640)}\\\\ \frac{I_l}{I_g} = 0.000535$

How is a conducter different from an insulater

Maru [420]

Answer:

Conductors have magnetic fields; insulators do not have magnetic fields. Conductors do not have magnetic fields; insulators do have magnetic fields. ... In a conductor, electric current cannot flow freely; in an insulator, it can flow freely.
