Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The hypothesis can be defined as the explanations or suppositions that are acceptable in order to prove some natural phenomena by the help of experimental procedure.

And you can use your data which is gather from the experiment and formulate a new hypothesis.

A hypothesis is the data which is not depend on the experimental data, it can be say that it is just a not dependent hypothesis.

This is false. Your hypothesis, or prediction, is just that: a prediction. Saying its a failure will result in bias.

Coherent light of wavelength 525 nm passes through two thin slits that are 4.15Ã—10^(âˆ’2) mm apart and then falls on a screen 7

IRINA_888 [86]

A) 4.7 cm

The formula for the angular spread of the nth-maximum from the central bright fringe for a diffraction from two slits is

$sin \theta=\frac{n \lambda}{d}$

where

n is the order of the maximum

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

$a$ is the distance between the slits

In this problem,

n = 5

$\lambda=525 nm =5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m$

$a=4.15\cdot 10^{-2} mm=4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m$

So we find

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(5)(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=3.62^{\circ}$

And given the distance of the screen from the slits,

$D=75.0 cm = 0.75 m$

The distance of the 5th bright fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 3.62^{\circ}=0.047 m = 4.7 cm$

B) 8.1 cm

The formula to find the nth-minimum (dark fringe) in a diffraction pattern from double slit is a bit differente from the previous one:

$sin \theta=\frac{(n+\frac{1}{2}) \lambda}{d}$

To find the angle corresponding to the 8th dark fringe, we substitute n=8:

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(8+\frac{1}{2})(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=6.17^{\circ}$

And the distance of the 8th dark fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 6.17^{\circ}=0.081 m = 8.1 cm$

The depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench is 36,198 ft. What is the gauge pressure at this depth

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

Explanation:

The pressure at the depth is given by,

P = h $\rho$ g

Where, P = pressure at the depth

h = depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench = 36,198 ft = 11033.15 meter

$\rho$ = density of water = 1000 $\frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

g = acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

P = 11033.15 × 9.8 × 1000

P = 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

Thus, the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

The graph to the right shows the change in Canada‘s harvest of Atlantic cod from 1950-2004 what year shows the clearest evidence

Ann [662]

The correct answer is C. 1995

Explanation:

The graph shows the changes in the harvest of Atlantic cod. In general, this graph illustrates how the peak occurred in the 1980s but then there was a sudden and sharp decline in 1995. Indeed, 1995 is the year with the lowest number of harvested cod as in this year there were approximately least than 10 thousand metric tonnes of cods. Also, this year shows the collapse of fishing stocks or that the population of this fish collapsed, which made it impossible to harvest as many fish as in previous years. According to this, the year that shows the collapse of fishing stocks is 1995.
