The distance between slit and the screen is 1.214m.

To find the answer, we have to know about the width of the central maximum.

<h3>How to find the distance between slit and the screen?</h3>
  • It is given that, wavelength 560 nm passes through a slit of width 0. 170 mm, and the width of the central maximum on a screen is 8. 00 mm.
  • We have the expression for slit width w as,

                           w=\frac{2*wavelength*d}{a}

where, d is the distance between slit and the screen, and a is the slit width.

  • Thus, distance between slit and the screen is,

                           d=\frac{w*a}{2*wavelength} =\frac{8*10^{-3}*0.17*10^{-3}}{560*10^{-9}*2} \\\\d=1.214m

Thus, we can conclude that, the distance between slit and the screen is 1.214m.

Answer:

A. The electric field points to the left because the force on a negative charge is opposite to the direction of the field.

Explanation:

The electric force exerted on a charge by an electric field is given by:

where

F is the force

q is the charge

E is the electric field

We see that if the charge is negative, q contains a negative sign, so the force F and the electric field E will have opposite signs (which means they have opposite directions). This is due to the fact that the direction of the lines of an electric field shows the direction of the electric force experienced by a positive charge in that electric field: therefore, a negative charge will experience a force into opposite direction.

<u> Ohms law: </u> This law relates voltage difference between two points. Mathematically, the law states that V=IR;

                Where

                          V = voltage difference ; in volts

                          I = Current ; in Amperes

                          R = Resistance ; in ohms

<u>1. Answer : </u> given that R = 10 ; V= 12 V ;  I = ?

From ohms law,    I = V/R

                                = 12/10

                                = 1.2 Amp.

<u>2. Answer:</u>  given that R = 10 ; V= ? ;  I = 5

From ohms law,    V = IR

                                 = 10×5 = 50 V

<u>3 . Answer:</u>  given that R = ? ; V= 120 ;  I = 5

From ohms law,    R =  V/I

                                 = 120/5

                                 = 24 Ω

<u>4 . Answer:</u>  given that R = ? ; V= 10 ;  I = 20

From ohms law,    R =  V/I

                                 = 10/20

                                 = 0.5 Ω

<u>5 . Answer:</u>  given that R = 480 ; V= 24 ;  I = ?

From ohms law,  I =  V/R

                              = 24/480

                              = 0.05 A

<u>6. Answer:</u>  given that R = 150 ; V= ? ;  I = 1

From ohms law,  V = IR

                               = 1 × 150

                               = 150 V
