Answer:

l= 4 mi   : width of the park

w= 1 mi  : length of the park

Explanation:

Formula to find the area of ​​the rectangle:

A= w*l       Formula(1)

Where,

A is the area of the  rectangle in mi²

w is the  width of the rectangle in mi

l is the  width of the rectangle in mi

Known data

A =  4 mi²

l = (w+3)mi    Equation (1)

Problem development

We replace the data in the formula (1)

A= w*l  

4 = w* (w+3)

4= w²+3w

w²+3w-4= 0

We factor the equation:

We look for two numbers whose sum is 3 and whose multiplication is -4

(w-1)(w+4) = 0 Equation (2)

The values ​​of w for which the equation (2) is zero are:

w = 1 and w = -4

We take the positive value w = 1 because w is a dimension and cannot be negative.

w  = 1 mi  :width of the park

We replace w  = 1 mi  in the equation (1) to calculate the length of the park:

l=  (w+3) mi

l= ( 1+3) mi

l= 4 mi

In a Young's double-slit experiment, 610-nm-wavelength light is sent through the slits. The intensity at an angle of 2.95° from
Sliva [168]

Answer:

spacing between the slits is 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 610 nm

angle = 2.95°

central bright fringe = 85%

to find out

spacing between the slits

solution

we know that spacing between slit is

I = 4I_{0} × cos²∅/2

so

I/4I_{0}  = cos²∅/2

here I/4I_{0} is 85 % = 0.85

so

0.85 = cos²∅/2

cos∅/2 = √0.85

∅ = 2 ×cos^{-1} 0.921954

∅  = 45.56°

∅  = 45.56° ×π/180 = 0.7949 rad

and we know that here

∅  = 2π d sinθ / wavelength

so

d = ∅× wavelength /  ( 2π  sinθ )

put all value

d = 0.795 × 610×10^{-9} / ( 2π  sin2.95 )

d = 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

spacing between the slits is 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

v = 16.11 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy. We set a reference system on the part of the platform without elongation

starting point. When the spring is compressed

        Em₀ = K_e + U = ½ k x² + m g x ’

final point. The point where it leaves the platform

        Em_f = K = ½ m v²

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

         ½ k x² + m g x ’= ½ m v²

         v² = \frac{k}{m}  x² + g x

let's calculate

         v² = \frac{8700}{55}  1.25² + 9.8 1.25

         v² = 247.159 + 12.25 = 259.409

         v = 16.11 m / s
