Light of wavelength 500nm shines on a pair of slits. This produces an interference pattern on a screen 2.00m behind the slits. M

easuring from the center of the pattern, we find that the fifth dark spot is 4.00cm away. What is the spacing between the slits

Answer:

The  value is  d = 0.000125 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  wavelength is  \lambda  =  500 \  nm =  500 *10^{-9 } \  m

    The  distance is of  the screen is  D =  2.0 \ m

    The  width of the fifth dark spot is y  =  4.00 \  cm  =  0.04 \  m

Generally the width of a fringe is mathematically represented as

           y =  \frac{ n  *  \lambda  *  D }{d }

=>        0.04  =  \frac{ 5  * 500 *10^{-9}  *  2 }{d}

=>        d =  \frac{ 5  * 500 *10^{-9}  *  2 }{0.04}

=>        d = 0.000125 \  m

Consider a long cylindrical charge distribution of radius R with a uniform charge density rho. Find the electric field at distan
ahrayia [7]

Answer: Ok, first lest see out problem.

It says it's a Long cylindrical charge distribution, So you can ignore the border effects on the ends of the cylinder.

Also by the gauss law we know that E¨*2*pi*r*L = Q/ε0

where Q is the total charge inside our gaussian surface, that will be a cylinder of radius r and heaight L.

So Q= rho*volume= pi*r*r*L*rho

so replacing : E = (1/2)*r*rho/ε0

you may ask, ¿why dont use R on the solution?

since you are calculating the field inside the cylinder, and the charge density is uniform inside of it, you don't see the charge that is outside, and in your calculation actuali doesn't matter how much charge is outside your gaussian surface, so R does not have an effect on the calculation.

R would matter if in the problem they give you the total charge of the cylinder, so when you only have the charge of a smaller r radius cylinder, you will have a relation between r and R that describes how much charge density you are enclosing.

Why does the Polaris appear to remain stationary in the night sky when other stars show an apparent pattern?
yanalaym [24]
Because one pole of the Earth's axis of rotation (the North one) points
almost exactly toward Polaris.

If Polaris had a pimple or a bump somewhere on its edge, you'd see
the bump rotate around the whole edge, like a clock, once a day.  But
the whole star appears to stay in one place, because our axis points to it.

6. Dan wants to create acceleration. He
kiruha [24]

d. Maintain constant velocity

Explanation:

A constant velocity leads to no acceleration.

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity with time:

  Acceleration = \frac{change in velocity}{time taken}

If there is no change in velocity i.e constant velocity.

At constant velocity, the change in velocity is 0.

 If we put zero in the equation above, we will obtain an acceleration value of 0.
