Answer:
d = 2,042 10-3 m
Explanation:
The laser diffracts in the circular slit, so the process equation is
d sin θ= m λ
The first diffraction minimum occurs for m = 1
We can use trigonometry in the mirror
tan θ = Y / L
Where L is the distance from the Moon to Earth
Since the angle is extremely small
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ
Cos θ = 1
tant θ = sin θ = y / L
We replace
d y / L = λ
d = λ L / y
Let's calculate
d = 532 10⁻⁹ 3.84 10⁶/1 10³
d = 2,042 10-3 m
Answer:
<em> The distance required = 16.97 cm</em>
Explanation:
Hook's Law
From Hook's law, the potential energy stored in a stretched spring
E = 1/2ke² ......................... Equation 1
making e the subject of the equation,
e = √(2E/k)........................ Equation 2
Where E = potential Energy of the stretched spring, k = elastic constant of the spring, e = extension.
Given: k = 450 N/m, e = 12 cm = 0.12 m.
E = 1/2(450)(0.12)²
E = 225(0.12)²
E = 3.24 J.
When the potential energy is doubled,
I.e E = 2×3.24
E = 6.48 J.
Substituting into equation 2,
e = √(2×6.48/450)
e = √0.0288
e = 0.1697 m
<em>e = 16.97 cm</em>
<em>Thus the distance required = 16.97 cm</em>
Answer:
Since binary is only 1 and 0, you can use a flashlight to display something similar to Morse code (see explanation below)
Explanation:
In binary, 1 means "on" and 0 means "off". A way you can use visible light is through turning on and off a flashlight. If the flashlight is turned on, it would represent a 1. If the flashlight is turned off, it would represent a 0. To make the message easier and more accurately understood for the receiver make sure to flash the lights in a consistent pattern (ex. each flash lasts no longer than half a second, one second between each digit, etc.)
For example, let's say you're trying to send the message "11001"
on on off off on
0 1 2 3 4 5 <em>Numbers represent seconds</em>
As you can see above the message starts at 0 seconds. Between 0 and 1 seconds the flashlight is turned on once. Between 1 and 2 seconds the flashlight is turned on again, Between 2 and 3 seconds as well as 3 and 4 seconds the flashlight is not turned on at all. And finally between 4 and 5 seconds the flashlight is turned on.
