A laser beam of wavelength λ=632.8 nm shines at normal incidence on the reflective side of a compact disc. The tracks of tiny pi

ts in which information is coded onto the CD are 1.60 μm apart.For what nonzero angles of reflection (measured from the normal) will the intensity of light be maximum? Express your answer numerically. If there is more than one answer, enter each answer separated by a comma.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts given by the principles of superposition, specifically those described by Bragg's law in constructive interference.

Mathematically this relationship is given as

dsin\theta = n\lambda

Where,

d = Distance between slits

\lambda = Wavelength

n = Any integer which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum

\theta = sin^{-1} (\frac{n\lambda}{d})

Calculating the value for n, we have

n = 1

\theta_1 = sin^{-1} (\frac{\lambda}{d})\\\theta_1 = sin^{-1} (\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_1 = 23.3\°

n=2

\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (\frac{2\lambda}{d})\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (2\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_2 = 52.28\°

n =3

\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (\frac{2\lambda}{d})\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (3\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_2 = \text{not possible}

Therefore the intensity of light be maximum for angles 23.3° and 52.28°

A closed container initially holds 50 monatomic Aparticles that have a combined energy of 480 units. After 100 monatomic B parti
Molodets [167]

Answer:

"8 units" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

According to the question,

Throughout equilibrium all particles are of equivalent intensity, and as such the integrated platform's total energy has been uniformly divided across all individuals.

Now,

The total energy will be:

= 480+720

= 1200 \ units

The total number of particles will be:

= 50+100

= 150

hence,

Energy of each A particle or each B particle will be:

= \frac{1200}{150}

= 8 \ units
