Answer:
1) not so long (maybe an hour or two)
2) access to information through the internet will be most affected if my computer and mobile phone run out of battery power.
3) yes, one should prepare for power outage. This can be done by having a standby alternative source of power like the use of inverters that stores electrical energy in form of chemical energy, and small internal combustion engine powered electric generators.
4) solar panels can be used to draw power from incident sun rays, this power can be stored in an inverter for future use in case of a power outage.
5) energy from the sun is converted into direct current which is then supplied to an accumulator in the opposite direction to its flow of current. When the energy is needed, it can be used directly, or converted to an alternating current. This is achieved by connecting its terminal to the supply. Electric field is generated by flow of ions and electrons within the working chemical (e.g lithium).
Explanation:
A mechanical wave can only travel through matter.
Explanation:
The solution is be found in the attachment.
Given Information:
Wavelength of the red laser = λr = 632.8 nm
Distance between bright fringes due to red laser = yr = 5 mm
Distance between bright fringes due to laser pointer = yp = 5.14 mm
Required Information:
Wavelength of the laser pointer = λp = ?
Answer:
Wavelength of the laser pointer = λp = ?
Explanation:
The wavelength of the monochromatic light can be found using young's double slits formula,
y = Dλ/d
y/λ = D/d
Where
λ is the wavelength
y is the distance between bright fringes.
d is the double slit separation distance
D is the distance from the slits to the screen
For the red laser,
yr/λr = D/d
For the laser pointer,
yp/λp = D/d
Equating both equations yields,
yr/λr = yp/λp
Re-arrange for λp
λp = yp*λr/yr
λp = (5*632.8)/5.14
λp = 615.56 nm
Therefore, the wavelength of the small laser pointer is 615.56 nm.
