A Young's interference experiment is performed with blue-green laser light. The separation between the slits is 0.500 mm, and th
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

λ = 5.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 520 nm

Explanation:

From Young's Double Slit Experiment, we know the following formula for the distance between consecutive bright fringes:

Δx = λL/d

where,

Δx = fringe spacing = distance of 1st bright fringe from center = 0.00322 m

L = Distance between slits and screen = 3.1 m

d = Separation between slits = 0.0005 m

λ = wavelength of light = ?

Therefore,

0.00322 m = λ(3.1 m)/(0.0005 m)

λ = (0.00322 m)(0.0005 m)/(3.1 m)

<u>λ = 5.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 520 nm</u>

A railroad car of mass 2.52 104 kg is moving with a speed of 3.86 m/s. It collides and couples with three other coupled railroad
aleksley [76]

Answer:

a)   v = 2.4125 m / s  , b)  Em_{f} / Em₀ = 0.89

Explanation:

a) This is an inelastic crash problem, the system is made up of the four carriages, so the forces during the crash are internal and the moment is conserved

Initial

          p₀ = m v₁ + 3 m v₂

Final

         p_{f} = (4 m) v

        p₀ =p_{f}

        m (v₁ + 3 v₂) = 4 m v

        v = (v₁ +3 v₂) / 4

Let's calculate

       v = (3.86 + 3 1.93) / 4

       v = 2.4125 m / s

b) the initial mechanical energy is

       Em₀ = K₁ + 3 K₂

       Em₀ = ½ m v₁² + ½ 3m v₂²

       

The final mechanical energy

         Em_{f} = K

         Em_{f} = ½ 4 m v²

The fraction of energy lost is

          Em_{f} / Em₀ = ½ 4m v² / ½ m (v₁² +3 v₂²)

          Em_{f} / Em₀ = 4 v₂ / (v₁² + 3 v₂²)

          Em_{f} / Em₀ = 4 2.4125² / (3.86² + 3 1.93²)

          Em_{f} / em₀ = 23.28 / 26.07

          Em_{f} / Em₀ = 0.89
