If you shout at a cliff wall that is 440 m away and the air temperature is at 25 °C, how long will it take before you hear your
ira [324]
The speed of sound at T=25°C is Vs=346 m/s. So the sound has to reach the cliff and return back to you so the path it needs to travel is s=2*440 m = 880 m.
Since the speed of sound is constant s=Vs*t, and t= s/Vs=880/346=2.54335 s. You will hear the echo after t=2.54335 s after you shouted.

A technician wishes to determine the wavelength of the light in a laser beam. To do so, she directs the beam toward a partition
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

λ = 5.656 x 10⁻⁷ m = 565.6 nm

Explanation:

Using the formula of fringe spacing from the Young's Double Slit experiment, which is given as follows:

\Delta x = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\\lambda = \frac{\Delta x\ d}{L}

where,

λ = wavelength = ?

Δx = fringe spacing = 1.6 cm = 0.016 m

L = Distance between slits and screen = 4.95 m

d = slit separation = 0.175 mm = 0.000175 m

Therefore,

\lambda = \frac{(0.016\ m)(0.000175\ m)}{4.95\ m}\\\\

<u>λ = 5.656 x 10⁻⁷ m = 565.6 nm</u>
