The correct answer is - biased.

When a scientist is sticking to its position and way of thought, even though there's a presented proof that confirms that his/hers position is wrong, and the facts are in a totally different direction, it means that the scientist is biased. This, weirdly enough, is a very common thing in the scientific circles, and very often it is connected with pride, which is definitely not how scientist should act.

A diffraction pattern is formed on a screen 130 cm away from a 0.420-mm-wide slit. Monochromatic 546.1-nm light is used. Calcula
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The fractional Intensity \frac{I}{I_{max}} = 0.0146

Given:

wavelength of the light, \lambda = 546.1 nm = 546.1\times 10^{-9} m

slit and screen separation difference, D = 130 cm = 1.3 m

distance of the point from the center of the principal maximum, y = 4.10 mm = 0.041 m

slit width, d = 0.420 mm = 0.420\times 10^{-3}

Solution:

To calculate the fractional intensity, we use the given formula:

\frac{I}{I_{max}} = \frac{sin^{2}\delta }{\frac({\delta}{2})^{2}}             (1)

\delta = \frac{\pi }{\lambda}dsin\theta    

For very small angle:                                        

\delta = \frac{\pi dy}{\lambda D}                                  (2)

where

\delta = total phase angle

\theta = angle of deviation

Using eqn (2):

\delta = \frac{\pi \times 0.42\times 10^{-3}\times 4.1\times 10^{-3} }{546.1\times 10^{-9}\times 1.3} = 7.6202 radians

Now, using eqn (1):

\frac{I}{I_{max}} = \frac{sin^{2}(7.6202) }{(\frac{7.6202}{2})^{2}} = 0.0146

Se lanza una pelota de hule elástica de masa mA con una velocidad VAi contra la puerta trasera de un camión muy pesado de masa m
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

v_{A}=v_{Ai}

Explanation:

The total momentum of the system must conserve by the law of momentum conservation.

p_b=p_a\\\\m_Av_{Ai}+m_Bv_{Bi}=m_Av_{A}+m_Bv_{B}    ( 1 )

If you consider the shock between the ball and the truck as totally elastic, and also if the truck is much more massive than the ball, you can assume that the truck does not move when the ball hits it.

Then the truck is always at rest

Hence, you have in the expression ( 1 ):

m_Av_{Ai}+0=m_Av_{A}+0\\\\v_{Ai}=v_{A}
