<u>Answer:</u> Watt, a unit of power is equal to a joule divided by a second

<u>Explanation:</u>

Power is defined as the ratio of rate of work done by an object.  It is measured in Watt.

Mathematically,

P=\frac{W}{t}

where,

W = work done by the object. It is measured in Joules

t = time taken by the object. It is measured in seconds

So, the unit of watt is equal to a joule divided by a second.

Hence, Watt, a unit of power is equal to a joule divided by a second

Power is the RATE of use, flow, or transfer of energy.

1 watt = 1 joule PER SECOND.

The correct choice is ' <em>a</em> '.

Coherent light of wavelength 525 nm passes through two thin slits that are 4.15×10^(−2) mm apart and then falls on a screen 7
IRINA_888 [86]

A) 4.7 cm

The formula for the angular spread of the nth-maximum from the central bright fringe for a diffraction from two slits is

sin \theta=\frac{n \lambda}{d}

where

n is the order of the maximum

\lambda is the wavelength

a is the distance between the slits

In this problem,

n = 5

\lambda=525 nm =5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m

a=4.15\cdot 10^{-2} mm=4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m

So we find

\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(5)(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=3.62^{\circ}

And given the distance of the screen from the slits,

D=75.0 cm = 0.75 m

The distance of the 5th  bright fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 3.62^{\circ}=0.047 m = 4.7 cm

B) 8.1 cm

The formula to find the nth-minimum (dark fringe) in a diffraction pattern from double slit is a bit differente from the previous one:

sin \theta=\frac{(n+\frac{1}{2}) \lambda}{d}

To find the angle corresponding to the 8th dark fringe, we substitute n=8:

\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(8+\frac{1}{2})(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=6.17^{\circ}

And the distance of the 8th dark fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 6.17^{\circ}=0.081 m = 8.1 cm

andrezito [222]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

wavelength = speed of light/ frequency

= (3x 10^8 m/s)/(5.0 x 10^14 Hz)

= 6.0 x 10^-7 m

Why the effect of gravitational force is more in liquid than in solid?​
LekaFEV [45]
  • Gravitational force depends only on mass and distance, not on the state of matter.
  • The forces of attraction between molecules in matter are electromagnetic in nature, not gravitational.
  • These attractive forces are stronger in a solid than in a liquid than in a gas.
  • Gravitational forces between molecules is completely negligible compared to the em forces.

So, key answer is inter-molecular forces of solids is stronger than liquids.
