Consider two diffraction gratings. One grating has 3000 lines per cm, and the other one has 6000 lines per cm. Both gratings are
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

<em>The 6000 lines per cm grating, will produces the greater dispersion .</em>

Explanation:

A diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic (usually one  that has ridges or rulings on their surface rather than dark lines) structure that splits and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions.

The directions of the light beam produced from a diffraction grating depend on the spacing of the grating, and also on the wavelength of the light.

For a plane diffraction grating, the angular positions of principle maxima is given by

(a + b) sin ∅n = nλ

where

a+b is the distance between two consecutive slits

n is the order of principal maxima

λ is the wavelength of the light

From the equation, we can see that without sin ∅ exceeding 1, increasing the number of lines per cm will lead to a decrease between the spacing between consecutive slits.

In this case, light of the same wavelength is used. If λ and n is held constant, then we'll see that reducing the distance between two consecutive slits (a + b) will lead to an increase in the angle of dispersion sin ∅. So long as the limit of sin ∅ not greater that one is maintained.

A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with
padilas [110]
Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]

In SI units, what is the magnitude the net force acting on a 1,152 kg car that accelerates uniformly along a straight line from
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Fnet = 14515.2 Newton

Explanation:

Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.

Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;

Fnet = Fapp + Fg

Where;

  • Fnet is the net force.
  • Fapp is the applied force.
  • Fg is the force due to gravitation.

Given the following data;

Mass = 1,152 kg

Initial velocity, u = 3m/s

Final velocity, v = 17m/s

Time, t = 5 seconds

To find the magnitude of the net force;

First of all, we would determine the acceleration of the car.

Acceleration = (v-u)/t

Acceleration = (17 - 3)/5

Acceleration = 14/5

Acceleration = 2.8m/s

To find the applied force;

Fapp = mass * acceleration

Fapp = 1,152 * 2.8

Fapp = 3225.6 N

Next, we would find the force exerted on the car due to gravity.

Fg = mass * acceleration due to gravity

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

Fg = 1152 * 9.8

Fg = 11289.6N

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

Fnet = 3225.6 + 11289.6

Fnet = 14515.2 Newton
