Sample Response: Friction allows people and objects to move. It provides traction for an object to start moving or change direction. It can also give people a better grip on objects. Finally, friction keeps objects in place when they are set down.

-Friction makes movement possible.

-Friction provides traction

-Friction makes it easier to hold on to objects

-Friction keeps objects in place.

Without friction, we would not be able to stop walking since we would just keep slipping like on ice.

Without friction, objects would just slip and fall with a simple blow of air

And finally without friction we wouldn't be able to use machinery like cars and etc since they would just fly off

As an admirer of Thomas Young, you perform a double-slit experiment in his honor. You set your slits 1.15 mm apart and position
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The distance of the first bright fringe is given as  Y_C = 1.22 *10^{-3}m

The distance of the second dark fringe from the central bright fringe is given as  Y_D = 0.00192 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The slit separation distance is  d = 1.15 mm = \frac{1.15}{1000} =0.00115 m

      The distance of the slit from the screen is  D = 3.23 m

        The wavelength is \lambda  = 633 nm

For constructive interference to occur the distance between the two slit is mathematically represented as

            Y_C  =\frac{m \lambda D}{d}

 Where m is the order of the fringe which has a value of 1 for first bright fringe

    Substituting  values

               Y_C = \frac{1 * 633 *0^{-9} * 3.23}{0.00115}

                Y_C = 1.22 *10^{-3}m

For destructive  interference to occur the distance between the two slit is mathematically represented as

            Y_D  =  [n + \frac{1}{2} ] \frac{\lambda D}{d}

      m = 2

so the formula to get the dark fringe is n = \frac{1}{2} * 1

                                                                 n=1

 Now substituting values

                 Y_D = [ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ] * \frac{633 *10^{-9} * 3.23 }{0.00115}

                   Y_D =1.5 * \frac{633 *10^{-9} * 3.23 }{0.00115}

                        Y_D = 0.00192 \ m

In your experiment, you measure a total deflection of 4.12 cm when an electric field of 1.10×103V/m is established between the p
Bond [772]

Answer:

B_0 = 1.69 \times 10^{-4}\ T

Explanation:

given,

total deflection = 4.12 cm

Electric field = 1.1 ×10³ V/m

plate length = 6 cm

distance between them = 12 cm

using formula

v_0 = \sqrt{\dfrac{q\epsilon_0d}{ym}(\dfrac{d}{2}+L)}

q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg

d = 0.06 m

L = 0.12 m

v_0 = \sqrt{\dfrac{1.6 \times 10^{-19}\times 1.1 \times 10^{3}\times 0.06}{0.0412\times 9.11 \times 10^{-31} }(\dfrac{0.06}{2}+0.12)}

v_0 = 6496355.63 m/s

v_0 = \dfrac{E}{B_0}

B_0 = \dfrac{E}{v_0}

B_0 = \dfrac{1.1\times 10^{3}}{6496355.63}

B_0 = 1.69 \times 10^{-4}\ T

In which situation is the gravitational force between two objects hard to detect? (Options)
svlad2 [7]

A - the objects are too small

GRAVITATIONAL FORCE IS EXPERIENCED BY ALL OBJECTS IN THE UNIVERSE ALL THE TIME. BUT THE ORDINARY OBJECTS YOU SEE EVERY DAY HAVE MASSES SO SMALL THAT THEIR ATTRACTION TOWARD EACH OTHER IS HARD TO DETECT. -https://www.ftsd.org/cms/lib6/MT01001165/Centricity/ModuleInstance/630/CHAPTER_2_NOTES_FOR_EIGHTH_GRADE_PHYSICAL_SCIENCE.pdf
