Monochromatic light passes through a double slit, producing interference, the distance between the slit centres is 1.2 mm and th

Alik [6]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light is $7200\ \AA$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slit centers d= 1.2 mm

Distance between constructive fringes $\beta= 0.3\ cm$

Distance between fringe and screen D= 5 m

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of width

$\beta=\dfrac{D\lambda}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$0.3\times10^{-2}=\dfrac{5\times\lambda}{1.2\times10^{-3}}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{0.3\times10^{-2}\times1.2\times10^{-3}}{5}$

$\lambda=7.2\times10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=7200\ \AA$

Hence, The wavelength of the light is $7200\ \AA$ .

What is the change in potential energy if the distance separating the electron and proton is increased to 1.0 nm?

Vlada [557]

Answer:

$Ep=-2.3*10^{-19}J$

Explanation:

The change in potential energy can be expressed as:

$Ep=K.\frac{q1.q2}{r}$

where K is a constant with a value of $9*10^{9}\frac{N.m^{2}}{C^{2}}$ , q1 and q2 are the charges of the proton and the electron and r is the distance between them.

The charge for the proton is $+1.6*10^{-19}C$ and the charge for the electron is $-1.6*10^{-19}C$ .

Converting r=1.0nm to m:

$1.0nm*\frac{1*10^{-9}m}{1.0nm}=1*10^{-9}m$

Replacing values:

$Ep=9*10^{9}\frac{N.m^{2}}{C^{2}}.\frac{(+1.6*10^{-19}C).(-1.6*10^{-19}C)}{1*10^{-9}m}$

$Ep=-2.3*10^{-19}J$

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 4.6 m from the center of the ride. then the operator turns on the rid

ioda

<span>Radius = 4.6 m
Time for one complete rotation t = 5.5 s.
Distance = 2 x 3.14 x R = 2 x 3.14 x 4.6 m = 28.888.
Velocity V = distance / time = 28.888 / 5.5 s = 5.25 m/s
Force exerted by cat Fc = mV^2 / R = (mx 5.25^2) / 4.6 m
Force of the cat Fc = 6m, m being the mass.
Normal force = Us x m x g = Us x m x 9.81 = Us9.81m
equating the both forces => Us9.81m = 6m => Us = 6 / 9.81 => Us = 0.6116 So coefficient of static friction = 0.6116</span>
