Answer:

Phase difference = pi/4 radians

Explanation:

Given:

- The wavelength of incident light λ = 600 nm

- The split separation d = 0.85 mm

- Distance of screen from split plane L = 2.8 m

Find:

What is the phase difference between the two interfering waves on a screen, at a point 2.5 mm from the central bright fringe?

Solution:

- The phase difference can be evaluated by determining the type of interference that occurs at point y = 2.5 mm above central order. We will use the derived results from Young's double slit experiment.

                                  sin ( Q ) = m*λ /d  

                                  m = d*sin(Q) / λ

- Where, m is the order number and angle Q is the angle for mth order of fringe from central bright fringe.

                                  r = sqrt ( L^2 + 0.0025^ )

Where, r is the distance from split to the interference bright fringe.

                                  r = sqrt(2.8^ + 0.0025^) = 2.8

                                  sin(Q) = 0.0025 / 2.8

Hence.                        m = 0.00085*0.0025 / 2.8*(600*10^-9)

                                   m = 1.26

- We know that constructive interference would occurred at m = 1 and destructive interference @ m = 1.5. They have a phase difference of pi/2 radians.

- The order number lies in between constructive and destructive interference i.e m ≈ 1.25 then the corresponding phase difference = 0.5*(pi/2).

Answer:                  Phase difference = pi/4 radians

A 120 resistor a 60 ohm resistor and a 40 ohm resistor are connected in parallel to a 120 volt power source. what is the current
larisa [96]

Answer:

6 A

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the equivalent resistance of the circuit. The three resistors are connected in parallel, so their equivalent resistance is given by:

\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}=\frac{1}{120 \Omega}+\frac{1}{60 \Omega}+\frac{1}{40 \Omega}=\frac{3+2+1}{120 \Omega}=\frac{6}{120 \Omega}\\R_T = \frac{120}{6} \Omega

And now we can use Ohm's law to find the current in the circuit:

V=R_T II=\frac{V}{R_T}=\frac{120 V}{\frac{120}{6}\Omega}=6 A

How does planting high yield crop varieties make farming more sustainable
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The more high yield crops are planted, the more production there will be from plants.

Explanation:

High-yield plants are plants that are genetically modified or modified artificially in a way that makes farming plants more efficient. More crops grow, therefore more money.

The answer is, the more high-yield plants there are, the more efficiency there will be from farming.
