In order to calculate the angle, we can use the formula below for a constructive interference (the interference is constructive because the fringe is bright):

$d\sin\theta=m\lambda$

Where d is the distance between the slits, m is the order of the interference and lambda is the wavelength.

So, using d = 8.25 * 10^-5, m = 2 and lambda = 4.5 * 10^-7, we have:

$\begin{gathered} 8.25\cdot10^{-5}\cdot\sin\theta=2\cdot4.5\cdot10^{-7}\\ \\ \sin\theta=\frac{9\cdot10^{-7}}{8.25\cdot10^{-5}}\\ \\ \sin\theta=1.091\cdot10^{-2}\\ \\ \theta=0.625° \end{gathered}$

Therefore the correct option is the second one.

Determine the amount of thermal energy that must be transferred to a copper wire (mass 20g) to

Colt1911 [192]

Answer: Thermal energy is 8,2 kJ

Explanation: Heat Q = m c ΔT . c = 385 J/kg C and

ΔT = (1085 - 25)C = 1060 C. Q = 0.020 kg · 385 J / (kg C) ·1060 C

= 8162 J

A composite load consists of three loads connected in parallel. One draws 100 W at a PF of 0.92 lagging, another takes 250 W at

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

a) $I_{RMS} = 4.79 A$

b) $PF = 0.908$

Explanation:

Get the reactive powers for each of the loads:

Reactive power = Real Power * tanθ

For load 1

Active power, P₁ = 100 W

Power factor, $cos \theta_{1} = 0.92$

$\theta_{1} = cos^{-1} 0.92\\\theta_{1} = 23.074$

$Q_{1}= P_{1} tan \theta_{1} \\Q_{1}= 100tan 23.074\\Q_{1}= 42.60 W$

For load 2

Active power, P₂ = 250 W

Power factor, $cos \theta_{2} = 0.8$

$\theta_{2} = cos^{-1} 0.8\\\theta_{2} = 36.87$

$Q_{2}= P_{1} tan \theta_{2} \\Q_{2}= 250tan 36.87\\Q_{2}= 187.5 W$

For load 3

Active power, P₃ = 250 W

Power factor, $cos \theta_{3} = 1$

$\theta_{3} = cos^{-1} 1\\\theta_{3} =0$

$Q_{2}= P_{1} tan \theta_{3} \\Q_{3}= 150tan 0\\Q_{3}= 0 W$

Calculate the total reactive power, $Q_{net} = 42.6 + 187.5 + 0$

$Q_{net} = 230.1 W$

Calculate the total active power, $P_{net} = 100 + 250 + 150 = 500 W$

$S_{net} = P_{net} + Q_{net} \\S_{net} = 500 + j230.1$

$P_{net} = IVcos \theta_{net}$

$\theta_{net} = tan^{-1} \frac{230.1}{500} \\\theta_{net} = 24.712$

V = 115 $V_{rms}$

$500 = I_{RMS} * 115 cos 24.712\\I_{RMS} = 500/104.47\\ I_{RMS} = 4.79 A$

b) Power factor of the composite load is $cos\theta_{net}$

$\theta_{net} = 24.712\\PF = cos 24.712\\PF = 0.908$

Dolphins emit clicks of sound for communication and echolocation. A marine biologist is monitoring a dolphin swimming in seawate

LenKa [72]

Answer:

12.64968 Hz

Explanation:

v = Velocity of sound in seawater = 1522 m/s

u = Velocity of dolphin = 7.2 m/s

f' = Actual frequency = 2674 Hz

From Doppler effect we get the relation

$f=f'\frac{v-u}{v}\\\Rightarrow f=2674\frac{1522-7.2}{1522}\\\Rightarrow f=2661.35032\ Hz$

The frequency that will be received is 2661.35032 Hz

The difference in the frequency will be

$2674-2661.35032=12.64968\ Hz$
