It's important to know that diffraction gratings can be identified by the number of lines they have per centimeter. Often, more lines per centimeter is more useful because the images separation is greater when this happens. That is, the distance between lines increases.

<h2>Therefore, the answer is 2.</h2>

The Moon and Earth rotate about their common center of mass, which is located about RcM 4700 km from the center of Earth. (This
erica [24]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to gravity as an expression of a celestial body, as well as the use of concepts such as centripetal acceleration, angular velocity and period.

PART A) The expression to find the acceleration of the earth due to the gravity of another celestial body as the Moon is given by the equation

g = \frac{GM}{(d-R_{CM})^2}

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

d = Distance

M = Mass

R_{CM} = Radius earth center of mass

PART B) Using the same expression previously defined we can find the acceleration of the moon on the earth like this,

g = \frac{GM}{(d-R_{CM})^2}

g = \frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(7.35*10^{22})}{(3.84*10^8-4700*10^3)^2}

g = 3.4*10^{-5}m/s^2

PART C) Centripetal acceleration can be found throughout the period and angular velocity, that is

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}

At the same time we have that centripetal acceleration is given as

a_c = \omega^2 r

Replacing

a_c = (\frac{2\pi}{T})^2 r

a_c = (\frac{2\pi}{26.3d(\frac{86400s}{1days})})^2 (4700*10^3m)

a_c = 3.34*10^{-5}m/s^2

A 0.150 kg stone rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 9.50 g, traveling horizontally at 380 m/s, strike
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

(a)Magnitude=28.81 m/s

Direction=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b) No, it is not perfectly elastic collision

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of stone, M=0.150 kg

Mass of bullet, m=9.50 g=9.50\times 10^{3} kg

Initial speed of bullet, u=380 m/s

Initial speed of stone, U=0

Final speed of bullet, v=250m/s

a. We have to find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck.

Using conservation of momentum

mu+ MU=mv+ MV

Substitute the values

9.5\times 10^{-3}\times 380 i+0.150(0)=9.5\times 10^{-3} (250)j+0.150V

3.61i=2.375j+0.150V

3.61 i-2.375j=0.150V

V=\frac{1}{0.150}(3.61 i-2.375j)

V=24.07i-15.83j

Magnitude of velocity of stone

=\sqrt{(24.07)^2+(-15.83)^2}

|V|=28.81 m/s

Hence, the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck, |V|=28.81 m/s

Direction

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})

=tan^{-1}(\frac{-15.83}{24.07})

\theta=tan^{-1}(-0.657)

=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b)

Initial kinetic energy

K_i=\frac{1}{2}mu^2+0=\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(380)^2

K_i=685.9 J

Final kinetic energy

K_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}MV^2

=\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(250)^2+\frac{1}{2}(0.150)(28.81)^2

K_f=359.12 J

Initial kinetic energy is not equal to final kinetic energy. Hence, the collision is not perfectly elastic collision.

Electricity costs 10p per unit. How much will it cost Sam to use a 85W laptop and a 60W lamp for an hour?
Goryan [66]
The standard unit is KW/hr, = 1,000W/hr.
(85 + 60) = 145W.
You need to find its fraction of 1,000W., so (145/1000) = 0.145 KWH.
(0.145 x 10p) = 1.45p. per hr.

If you travel 1.7 km north from your house at noon, and at 6:00 PM you travel 5.4 km south, what is your displacement? 3.7 km no
Yakvenalex [24]

<u>Answer</u>

3.7 Km south


<u>Explanation</u>

The definition of displacement is the distance traveled in a specific direction. It is the vector quantity. We add displacements like the way we add vectors.

Taking the direction towards North to be positive (+1.7 Km), the distance towards south would be negative (-5.4 Km).

Now lets add the two values.

(+1.7) + (-5.4) = 1.7 - 5.4

                    = - 3.7 Km      But negative was towards south.

∴ Answer = 3.7 Km south.
