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.

A dart is inserted into a spring-loaded dart gun by pushing the spring in by a distance x. For the next loading, the spring is c
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The second dart leaves the gun two times as faster than the first one.

Explanation:

Assuming no energy loss during the spring-dart energy transfer, we have by the conservation of energy principle

U_s = K_d \\ \frac{1}{2} kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 \\ v = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x^2}.

Given an arbitrary x and its double, 2x, launch velocities are

v_1 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x^2} \text{ and} \\ v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}\left(2x\right)^2} = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}4x^2} = 2\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x^2} = \mathbf{2v_1}.

A beam of protons is directed in a straight line along the +z direction through a region of space in which there are crossed ele
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

B = 7.6 T   direction of + x

Explanation:

For the proton beam to continue in the same direction the electric and magnetic forces must be equal

              F_{m} - F_{e} = 0

              F_{m} = F_{e}

              Fm = q E

             

The electric force is in the direction of the electric field because it is the charge of the positive proton, the electric force goes in the direction of –y, therefore, the magnetic force cancels this force must go in the direction of + y

 The magnetic force is

             F_{m} = q v x B = q v B sin θ

             θ = 90

             B = q E / q v

             B = E / v

             B = 800/105

             B = 7.6 T

To find the direction of the magnetic field we use the right hand rule, the thumb goes in the direction of the proton velocity, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field and the palm is the direction of force, for a positive charge.

Thumb goes in the direction of the + z axis

Palm in the direction of +y

Fingers point in the direction of + x

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

She will make the mass of the smiley face twice as massive in order to keep the mobile in perfect balance.

Explanation:

mass of an object is directly proportional to the cube of its length. In this case the length is constant, the mass will also be constant for the smiley face, so that the mobile will be kept in perfect balance.

Therefore, If Anya decides to make the star twice as massive, and not change the length of any crossbar or the location of any object, she will make the mass of the smiley face twice as massive in order to keep the mobile in perfect balance.
