Answer:
d = 2,042 10-3 m
Explanation:
The laser diffracts in the circular slit, so the process equation is
d sin θ= m λ
The first diffraction minimum occurs for m = 1
We can use trigonometry in the mirror
tan θ = Y / L
Where L is the distance from the Moon to Earth
Since the angle is extremely small
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ
Cos θ = 1
tant θ = sin θ = y / L
We replace
d y / L = λ
d = λ L / y
Let's calculate
d = 532 10⁻⁹ 3.84 10⁶/1 10³
d = 2,042 10-3 m
Answer:
1) F = 24 N
2) Distance = 1 m
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass; m = 120 g = 0.12 kg
Initial velocity; u = 20 m/s
Final velocity; v = 0 m/s since it came to rest.
Time; t = 0.1 s
We can calculate acceleration from Newton's first equation of motion;
a = (v - u)/t
a = (0 - 20)/0.1
a = -200 m/s²
1) magnitude of the resistance will be;
F = ma
F = 0.12 × (-200)
F = -24 N
Since, we are dealing with the magnitude, we will take the absolute value. Thus, F = 24 N
2) To find the distance moved by the bullet, we know that;
Distance = Average speed × time
Thus;
Distance = ((v + u)/2) × t
Distance = ((0 + 20)/2) × 0.1
Distance = 1 m
Answer:
1. Either larger or smaller than the displacement of either wave acting alone, depending on the signs of the displacements of the two waves.
