A laser with wavelength d/8 is shining light on a double slit with slit separation 0.300 mm. This results in an interference pat

tern on a screen a distance away from the slits. We wish to shine a second laser, with a different wavelength, through the same slits.
(a) What is the wavelength of the second laser that would place its second maximum at the same location as the fourth minimum of the first laser, if d = 0.300 mm?

Answer:

0.066mm

Explanation:

let wavelength be λ

1st laser

fourth minima occurs at a distance of 7λa/2d

which is equal to 7a/16 as λ = d/8

now for 2nd laser

let wavelength be λ'

second maxima occurs at a distance of 2λ'a/d

so 7a/16 = 2λ'a/d

∴ λ' = 7d/32 = 0.066 mm

If youre walking from point a to b, the magnitude of your displacement will always be equal or less than or greater than your di
xenn [34]

The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you covered, or it can be less than the distance you covered.  But it can never be greater than the distance you covered.

This is because displacement is a straight line, whereas distance can be a straight line, a squiggly line, a zig-zag line, a line with loops in it, a line with a bunch of back-and-forths in it, or any other kind of line.

The straight line is always the shortest path between two points.

if the distance of separation begin two objects is doubled, is the gravitational force between the objects increased or decrease
SashulF [63]

Answer:

force is decreased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, the force of gravitation between the two object is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. Now the distance is doubled, so the force between the two objects becomes one forth.

Force is decreased by a factor or 4.

Which statements accurately describe electronic tools? Check all that apply.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Electronic tools provide accurate data

Explanation:

The sentence "Electronic tools provide accurate data analysis" is the only correct of all the options shown, because it is the only sentence that describes a characteristic present in all the electronic tools. The other options are not all electronic tools, but each option represents a type of electronic tool, depending on the time and technology used to build the tool.

Sonar is used to map the ocean floor. if an ultrasonic signal is received 3.3 s after it is emitted, how deep is the ocean floor
Goryan [66]
The speed of sound in fresh water is 1482m/s. 
It says ocean floor, so we should a little bit more accurate, and use the fact that the speed of sound in salt water (that has no bubbles) is 1560m/s. 
speed = distance / time 
Therefore Distance = speed x time = 1560 x 3.3 = 5158m 
The sonar wave is sent out by the boat, reflected off the seafloor, and then is received back at the boat on the surface. So the distance 5148m is the distance from the boat to the sea bottom and then back up to the boat again. 
So the depth of the water is half this distance Depth of water = 5148/2=2574m
