1)Light of wavelength 588.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 55.5 cm from the slit
Talja [164]

Answer:

These are Diffraction Grating Questions.

Q1. To determine the width of the slit in micrometers (μm), we will need to use the expression for distance along the screen from the center maximum to the nth minimum on one side:  

Given as  

y = nDλ/w                                                       Eqn 1

where  

w = width of slit  

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  

Making x the subject of the formula gives,  

w = nDλ/y  

Given  

y = 0.0149 m  

D = 0.555 m  

λ = 588 x 10-9 m  

and n = 3

w = 6.6x10⁻⁵m

Hence, the width of the slit w, in micrometers (μm) = 66μm

Q2. To determine the linear distance Δx, between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen

i.e we have to find the difference between distance along the screen (y₉-y₅) = Δx

Recall Eqn 1,     y = nDλ/w  

given, D = 27cm = 0.27m  

λ = 632 x 10-9 m  

w = 0.1mm = 1.0x10⁻⁴m

For the 9th order, n = 9,

y₉ = 9 x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.015m

Similarly, for n = 5,

y₅ = 5x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.0085m

Recall,  Δx = (y₉-y₅) = 0.015 - 0.0085 = 0.0065m

Hence, the linear distance Δx between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen = 6.5mm

Ashley is flying a plane that has to reach a gradient of 360m/km in order to take off and not crash. Her goal is to travel from
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

She is likely to crash because her flight gradient is lesser than the flight gradient required gradient to avoid crashing

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The required gradient of the plane Ashley is flying needs to reach in order to take off and not crash = 360 m/km

The initial elevation of the plane Ashley is flying = Sea level = 0 m

The goal Ashley intends to make = Elevation of 1000 m at 2.8 km. distance

∴ Ashley's goal = Traveling from sea level to 1000 m at 2.8 km horizontal distance

We have;

The gradient  = Rate of change of elevation/(Horizontal distance)

Therefore;

The gradient of Ashley's flight = (1000 - 0)/(2.8 - 0) = 357.143 m/km

The gradient of Ashley's flight ≈ 357.143 m/km which is lesser than the required 360 m/km in order to take off and not crash, therefore, she will crash.

A 1.50-m-long rope is stretched between two supports with a tension that makes the speed of transverse waves 48.0 m/s. What are
astra-53 [7]

Answer: a) 16Hz, 3m b) 48Hz, 1mc) 80Hz, 0.6m

Explanation:

a) Fundamental frequency in string is represented as Fo = V/2L where;

Fo is the fundamental frequency

V is the speed of the transverse wave = 48m/s

L is the length of the wire. = 1.50m

Substituting this values in the formula given we have;

Fo = 48/2(1.5)

Fo = 48/3

Fo = 16Hz

The fundamental tone is therefore 16Hz

Using v =f¶

Where f is the frequency and ¶ is the wavelength, the wavelength of the fundamental note will be;

¶ = v/fo

¶ = 48/16 = 3m

b) Overtones or harmonics is the multiple integral of the fundamental frequency. The multiples are I'm arithmetical progression.

First overtone f1 = 2fo

Second overtone f2 = 3fo etc.

Since fo = 16Hz

Second overtone f2 = 3×16 = 48Hz

¶ = v/f2 = 48/48

¶ = 1m

c) Fourth harmonic or overtone will be f4 = 5fo

F4 = 5×16 = 80Hz

The fourth harmonic is therefore 80Hz

¶ = v/f4 = 48/80

¶ = 0.6m

If earth had no atmosphere, would a falling object ever reach terminal velocity?
stepan [7]
No, because terminal velocity is when the acceleration of the Earth’s gravity is balanced by the air resistance of the atmosphere.
