A plane wave with a wavelength of 500 nm is incident normally ona single slit with a width of 5.0 × 10–6 m.Consider waves that r
kaheart [24]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to use the concepts related to Difference in Phase.

The Difference in phase is given by

\Phi = \frac{2\pi \delta}{\lambda}

Where

\delta = Horizontal distance between two points

\lambda = Wavelength

From our values we have,

\lambda = 500nm = 5*10^{-6}m

\theta = 1\°

The horizontal distance between this two points would be given for

\delta = dsin\theta

Therefore using the equation we have

\Phi = \frac{2\pi \delta}{\lambda}

\Phi = \frac{2\pi(dsin\theta)}{\lambda}

\Phi = \frac{2\pi(5*!0^{-6}sin(1))}{500*10^{-9}}

\Phi= 1.096 rad \approx = 1.1 rad

Therefore the correct answer is C.

What is the maximum value the string tension can have before the can slips? The coefficient of static friction between the can a
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

T= 38.38 N

Explanation:

Here

mass of can = m = 3 kg

g= 9.8 m/sec2

angle θ = 40°

From figure we see the vertical and horizontal component of tension force T

If the can is to slip - then horizontal component of tension force should become equal to force of friction.

First we find force of friction

Fs= μ R

where

μ = 0.76

R = weight of can = mg = 3 × 9.8 = 29.4 N

Now horizontal component of tension

Tx= T cos 40 = T× 0.7660  N

==>T× 0.7660 = 29.4

==> T= 38.38 N

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Final mass=0.89kg

Final pressure=5.6bar

Explanation:

To find mass,m=v/v1

But v1=vf + x(vg-vf)

Vf= 0.001093m^3/kg

Vg= 0.3748m^3/kg

V1= 0.001093+0.5(0.3748-0.001093)

V1= 0.225m^3/kg

M= 0.20/0.225 =0.89kg

Final pressure will be:

V/V1= P/P1

Cross multiply

VP1=V1P

P1= 0.225×5/0.2

P1=:5.6 bar

a horse moves a sleigh 1.00 kilometers by applying a horizontal 2000 Newton force on its harness for 45 minutes. what is the pow
tatyana61 [14]
--  If 2,000 newtons of force were applied through a distance of 1,000 meters,
then 2,000,000 newton-meters = 2,000,000 joules of work were done.

-- 45 minutes = (45 x 60) = 2,700 seconds

-- Power = (work) / (time) = (2,000,000 j) / (2,700 s) = <u>740.74 watts</u>

Interestingly, that's almost exactly 1 horsepower.  (0.99295... of 746 watts)
