Is it possible for an object to be in equilibrium (no net force), if only one force is acting on it ?

No

An object cannot be in equilibrium if only one force is acting upon it as there is no way for the net force to be canceled out unless there is at least one other force (so 2+ total) acting upon the object.

What is impossible for a machine to do?
Art [367]

Answer:

A) do a greater amount of work than the amount of work done on the machine

Explanation:

By the principle of conservation of energy, energy can never be created or destroyed.

To do more work by a machine than the amount of work done on the machine is impossible because to do so machine will have to create energy within itself which violates the principle of conservation of energy.

Extra bit,

These kind of machine are defined as perpetual-motion machines and there are many attempts in history to create one such device but all were failed.

AN airplane travels 4000 m in 20s on a heading 0f 35 degrees north west. Calculate average velocity .
alexandr402 [8]
Isn't velocity Distance over time? if the degree isn't adding resistance it should be 4000 ÷ 20 which gives you 200mps ("per second") which is the velocity without resistance.

What is the longest wavelength that can be observed in the third order for a transmission grating having 5200 slits/cm?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

641 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

A transmission grating has 5200 slits/cm.

We need to find the longest wavelength that can be observed in the third order. Using grating equation as follows :

d\sin\theta=m\lambda ...(1)

d is slit spacing

No fo slit per unit length :

N={5200}\ slit/cm\\\\=520000\ slits/m

We know that, N = 1/d

For longest wavelength, θ = 90°

From equation (1)

\dfrac{\sin\theta}{m\lambda}=\dfrac{1}{d}\\\\520000=\dfrac{\sin(90)}{3\lambda}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{1}{520000\times 3}\\\\=6.41\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\=641\ nm

Hence, the longest wavelength in third order for a transmission grating is 641 nm.
