I'm 99% sure that is called momentum.

Monochromatic light with wavelength 588 nm is incident on a slit with width 0.0351 mm. The distance from the slit to a screen is

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. Using

Sinစ= y/ L = 0.013/2.7= 0.00481

စ=0.28°

B.here we use

Alpha= πsinစa/lambda

= π x (0.0351)sin(0.28)/588E-9m

= 9.1*10^-2rad

C.we use

I(စ)/Im= (sin alpha/alpha) ²

So

{= (sin0.091/0.091)²

= 3*10^-4

Is lateral shift or lateral displacement same ?

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

When a ray of light passes through a glass slab of a certain thickness, the ray gets displaced or shifted from the original path. This is called lateral shift/displacement.

A 0.950 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 16.0 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it w

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass attached m = 0.95kg

Spring constant k = 16N/m

Instantaneous speed v = 36cm/s = 0.36m/s

Amplitude A=?

When x = 0.7A

Using conservation of energy

∆K.E + ∆P.E = 0

K.E(final) — K.E(initial) + P.E(final) — P.E(initial) = 0

At the beginning immediately the hammer hits the mass, the potential energy is 0J, Therefore, P.E(initial) = 0J, so the speed is maximum.

Also, at the end, at maximum displacement, the speed is zero, therefore, K.E(final) = 0

So, the equation becomes

— K.E(initial) + P.E(final) = 0

K.E(initial) = P.E(final)

½mv² = ½kA²

mv² = kA²

0.95 × 0.36² = 16×A²

0.12312 = 16•A²

A² = 0.12312/16

A² = 0.007695

A = √0.007695

A = 0.088 m

A = 8.8cm

B. Speed at x = 0.7A

Using the same principle above

K.E(initial) = P.E(final)

½mv² = ½kA²

Where A = 0.7A = 0.7 × 0.088 = 0.0614m

Then,

½× 0.95 × v² = ½ × 16 × 0.0614²

0.475v² = 0.0310644

v² = 0.0310644/0.475

v² = 0.0635

v = √0.0635

v = 0.252 m/s

v = 25.2 cm/s

If a nearsighted person has a far point df that is 3.50m from the eye, what is the focal length f1 of the contact lenses that th

olga55 [171]

Answer:

f1= -350cm or -3.5m

f2= 22.1cm or 0.221m

Explanation:

A person is nearsighted when the person's far point is less than infinity. A diverging lens is normally used to correct this eye defect. A diverging lens has a negative focal length as seen in the solution attached.

Farsightedness is when a person's near point is farther than 25cm. This eye defect is corrected using a converging lens. The focal length of a converging lens is positive. This is evident in the solution attached. The near point is also referred to as the least distance of distinct vision.

A rock thrown with speed 8.50 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m bef

frez [133]

Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.

The vertical component of the launch velocity is
v = (8.5 m/s)*sin30° = 4.25 m/s
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
8.5*cos30° = 7.361 m/s

Assume that aerodynamic resistance may be ignored.
Because the horizontal distance traveled is 19 m, the time of travel is
t = 19/7.361 = 2.581 s

The downward vertical travel is modeled by
h = (-4.25 m/s)*(2.581 s) + 0.5*(9.8 m/s²)*(2.581 s)²
= 21.675 m

Answer: The height is 21.7 m (nearest tenth)
