Displacement from the center line for minimum intensity is 1.35 mm , width of the slit  is 0.75 so  Wavelength of the light  is 506.25.

<h3>How to find Wavelength of the light?</h3>

When a wave is bent by an obstruction whose dimensions are similar to the wavelength, diffraction is observed. We can disregard the effects of extremes because the Fraunhofer diffraction is the most straightforward scenario and the obstacle is a long, narrow slit.

This is a straightforward situation in which we can apply the

Fraunhofer single slit diffraction equation:

y = mλD/a

Where:

y = Displacement from the center line for minimum intensity =  1.35 mm

λ =  wavelength of the light.

D = distance

a = width of the slit = 0.75

m = order number = 1

Solving for λ

λ = y + a/ mD

Changing the information that the issue has provided:

λ = 1.35 * 10^-3 + 0.75 * 10^-3 / 1*2  

=5.0625 *10^-7 = 506.25

so

Wavelength of the light 506.25.

A box is being moved with a velocity (v) by a force P (parallel to v) along a level horizontal floor. The normal force is (Fn),
labwork [276]

Answer:

Force (P) : Positive

Normal Force (Fn) : Zero

Weight (mg) : Zero

Kinetic Frictional Force (fk) : Negative

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by the following formula:

W = F.d

W = F d Cosθ

where,

W = Work Done

f = Force Applied

d = displacement

θ = Angle between force and displacement

<u>FOR FORCE (P)</u>:

Since, force P is parallel to the motion of the box. Therefore, θ = 0°

Hence,

W = P d Cos 0°

W = P d(1)

W = Pd

<u>Therefore, work done by force (P) is Positive.</u>

<u></u>

<u>FOR NORMAL FORCE (Fn) AND WEIGHT (W)</u>:

Since, normal force and weight are perpendicular to the motion of the box. Therefore, θ = 90°

Hence,

W = Fn d Cos 90°= mg d Cos 90°

W = Fn d(0) = mg d (0)

W = 0

<u>Therefore, work done by Normal Force (Fn) and Weight (mg) is Zero.</u>

<u></u>

<u>FOR KINETIC FRICTIONAL FORCE (fk)</u>:

Since, kinetic frictional force acts in the opposite direction of motion of the box. Therefore, θ = 180°

Hence,

W = fk d Cos 180°

W = fk d(-1)

W = -fk d

<u>Therefore, work done by Kinetic Frictional Force (fk) is Negative.</u>

<u></u>

If the truck has a mass of 2,000 kilograms , what's its momentum?(v=35 m/s)
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf  70,000 \ kg*m/s}}

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

p=m*v

The mass of the truck is 2,000 kilograms and the velocity is 35 meters per second.

m= 2000 \ kg \\v= 35 \ m/s

Substitute the values into the formula and multiply.

p= 2000 \ kg * 35 \ m/s \\p= 70,000 \ kg*m/s

The truck's momentum is <u>70,000 kilograms meters per second.</u>
