Answer: A: a ray of visible light  

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic radiation. It can travel through vacuum as well as medium. The speed of light is maximum in vacuum i.e. 3 × 10⁸ m/s. From experiments, scientists know that nothing can exceed the speed of the light i.e this speed of light is the upper limit and o particle or wave can travel with speed greater than this. Thus, a ray of visible light would have the greatest speed when observed by an astronaut.

Coherent light of wavelength 540 nm passes through a pair of thin slits that are 3.4 × 10-5 m apart. At what angle away from the
Scrat [10]

Answer: 1.8\°

Explanation:

The diffraction angles \theta_{n} when we have a slit divided into n parts are obtained by the following equation:

dsin\theta_{n}=n\lambda (1)

Where:

d=3.4(10)^{-5}m is the width of the slit

\lambda=540 nm=540(10)^{-9}m is the wavelength of the light  

n is an integer different from zero.

Now, the second-order diffraction angle is given when n=2, hence equation (1) becomes:

dsin\theta_{2}=2\lambda (2)

Now we have to find the value of \theta_{2}:

sin\theta_{2}=\frac{2\lambda}{d} (3)

Then:

\theta_{2}=arcsin(\frac{2\lambda}{d})   (4)

\theta_{2}=arcsin(\frac{2(540(10)^{-9}m)}{3.4(10)^{-5}m})   (5)

Finally:

\theta_{2}=1.8\°   (6)
