Answer:
<em>The y component of his displacement is 11.22 meters</em>
Explanation:
<u>Components of the displacement</u>
The displacement is a vector because it has a magnitude and a direction. Let's suppose a displacement has a magnitude r and a direction θ, measured with respect to the positive x-direction. The horizontal component of the displacement is calculated by:
The vertical component is calculated by:
The hiker has a displacement with magnitude r = 20.51 m at an angle of 33.16 degrees. Substituting in the above equation:
The y component of his displacement is 11.22 meters
Answer:
y = 0.0233 m
Explanation:
In a Young's Double Slit Experiment the distance between two consecutive bright fringes is given by the formula:
Δx = λL/d
where,
Δx = distance between fringes
λ = wavelength of light
L = Distance between screen and slits
d = Slit Separation
Now, for initial case:
λ = 425 nm = 4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m
y = 2Δx = 0.0177 m => Δx = 8.85 x 10⁻³ m
Therefore,
8.85 x 10⁻³ m = (4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m)L/d
L/d = (8.85 x 10⁻³ m)/(4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m)
L/d = 2.08 x 10⁴
using this for λ = 560 nm = 5.6 x 10⁻⁷ m:
Δx = (5.6 x 10⁻⁷ m)(2.08 x 10⁴)
Δx = 0.0116 m
and,
y = 2Δx
y = (2)(0.0116 m)
<u>y = 0.0233 m</u>
Answer:
Scientists plan to release a space probe that will enter the atmosphere of a gaseous planet. The temperature of the gaseous planet increases linearly with the height of the atmosphere as measured from the top of a visible boundary layer, defined as 0 kilometers in altitude. The instruments on board can withstand a temperature of 601 K. At what altitude will the probe's instruments fail? A. 50 kilometers B. 80 kilometers C. 83 kilometers D. 100 kilometers E. 111 kilometers
Explanation:
A. 50 kilometers
