Answer:

The minimum value of width for first minima is λ

The  minimum value of width for 50 minima is 50λ

The  minimum value of width for 1000 minima is 1000λ

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = λ

For D to be small,

We need to calculate the minimum width

Using formula of minimum width

D\sin\theta=n\lambda

D=\dfrac{n\lambda}{\sin\theta}

Where, D = width of slit

\lambda = wavelength

Put the value into the formula

D=\dfrac{n\lambda}{\sin\theta}

Here, \sin\theta should be maximum.

So. maximum value of \sin\theta is 1

Put the value into the formula

D=\dfrac{1\times\lambda}{1}

D=\lambda

(b). If the minimum number  is 50

Then, the width is

D=\dfrac{50\times\lambda}{1}

D=50\lambda

(c). If the minimum number  is 1000

Then, the width is

D=\dfrac{1000\times\lambda}{1}

D=1000\lambda

Hence, The minimum value of width for first minima is λ

The  minimum value of width for 50 minima is 50λ

The  minimum value of width for 1000 minima is 1000λ

Calculate the force it would take to accelerate a 250 kg motorcycle at a rate of 5 m/s2
Sphinxa [80]

Force = mass x acceleration

Mass is given to be 250kg

Acceleration is given to be 5m/s^2

Force = 250kg x 5m/s^2 = 1,250 kgm/s^2 = 1,250 Newtons

A photon ionizes a hydrogen atom from the ground state. The liberated electron 11. recombines with a proton into the first excit
anygoal [31]

Answer:

a) 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

Explanation:

given,

energy at ground level = -13.6 e V

energy at first exited state = - 3.4 e V

A photon of energy ionized from ground state and electron of energy K is released.

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

K combine with photon in first exited state giving out photon of energy

h\nu_2 =\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=\dfrac{12400}{466}

            = 26.6 e V

h c = 6.626 ×  10⁻³⁴ ×  3  × 10⁸  = 12400 e V A°

K + ( 3.4 ) = 26.6 e V

a) energy of free electron

K = 26.6 - 3.4 = 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

h ν₁  = 23.2 + 13.6

       = 36.8 e V

energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV
