A single slit forms a diffraction pattern, with the first minimum at an angle of 40.0° from central maximum, when monochromatic

light of 630-nm wavelength is used. The same slit, illuminated by a new monochromatic light source, produces a diffraction pattern with the second minimum at a 60.0° angle from the central maximum. What is the wavelength of this new light?

Answer:

\lambda = 424.4 nm

Explanation:

As we know by the formula of diffraction

a sin\theta = N\lambda

so we have

a = slit size

\theta = angular position of Nth minimum

so we will have

for first minimum of 630 nm light

a sin40 = 1(630 \times 10^{-9})

a = 9.8 \times 10^{-7} m

Now for another wavelength second minimum is at 60 degree angle

a sin60 = 2 \lambda

(9.8 \times 10^{-7}) sin60 = 2 \lambda

\lambda = 424.4 nm

When astronomers look at distant galaxies, what sort of motion do they see?
arlik [135]
Hello! You can call me Emac or Eric.

I understand your problem, that question is pretty hard. But I found some information that I think you should read. This can get your problem done quickly.

Please hit that thank you button if that helped, I don’t want thank you’s I just want to know that this helped.

Please reply if this doesn’t help, I will try my best to gather more information or a answer.

Here is some good information that could help you out a lot!


Let’s begin by exploring some techniques astronomers use to study how galaxies are born and change over cosmic time. Suppose you wanted to understand how adult humans got to be the way they are. If you were very dedicated and patient, you could actually observe a sample of babies from birth, following them through childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood, and making basic measurements such as their heights, weights, and the proportional sizes of different parts of their bodies to understand how they change over time.

Unfortunately, we have no such possibility for understanding how galaxies grow and change over time: in a human lifetime—or even over the entire history of human civilization—individual galaxies change hardly at all. We need other tools than just patiently observing single galaxies in order to study and understand those long, slow changes.

We do, however, have one remarkable asset in studying galactic evolution. As we have seen, the universe itself is a kind of time machine that permits us to observe remote galaxies as they were long ago. For the closest galaxies, like the Andromeda galaxy, the time the light takes to reach us is on the order of a few hundred thousand to a few million years. Typically not much changes over times that short—individual stars in the galaxy may be born or die, but the overall structure and appearance of the galaxy will remain the same. But we have observed galaxies so far away that we are seeing them as they were when the light left them more than 10 billion years ago.


That is some information, I do have more if you need some! Thanks!

Have a great rest of your day/night! :)
