A laser source has a bandwidth of 30GHz (a) Calculate the coherence length of the source b) What is the time separation of secti
abruzzese [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Bandwidth of a laser source, f=30\ GHz=30\times 10^9\ Hz

(b) Let t is the time separation of sections of sections of the light wave that can still interfere. The time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{30\times 10^9}

T=3.33\times 10^{-11}\ s

(a) Let h is the coherence length of the source. It is given by :

l=c\times T

c is the speed of light

l=3\times 10^8\times 3.33\times 10^{-11}

l = 0.0099 m

Hence, this is the required solution.

True or False: Dimensional analysis can give you the numerical
Serjik [45]
Dimensional analysis is a method of checking the dimensions of each value in  an equation. I will give you an example.

E=mc^2

Is a know equation which equates energy and mass. So our question is, is this true or not? The method is following:

knowing that c has the dimension of [m/s] and m has [kg], what is the dimension of E? So here the dimensional analysis begins.

E = mc^2 \Rightarrow [E] = \text{kg} \cdot \left( \frac{\text{m}} {\text{s}}\right)^2 = \text{kgms}^{-2}

This can be used also to solve "equations" to prove certain dimensions of unknown constants.

A rocket near the surface of the earth is accelerating vertically upward at 10 m/s2. The rocket releases an instrument package.
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

b)10 m/s^2 up

Explanation:

Immediately after The release from the rocket the acceleration of the instrument package will be same as of the rocket that is 10m/s^2 upward.

This because of newtons law of inertia. The states that a body in state of rest and state of motion will remain in state of rest or motion until and unless any external force is applied on it. Immediately after being released from the rocket inertia will keep the acceleration same. The effect of gravity come gradually.

If the retina is 1.7 cm from the lens in the eye, how large is the image on the retina of a person of height 1.5 m standing 9.0
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The image height is 0.00283 m or 0.283 cm and is inverted due to the negative sign

Explanation:

u = Object distance =  9 m

v = Image distance = 1.7 cm (as the image is forming on the retina)

h_u= Object height = 1.5 m

Magnification

m=-\frac{v}{u}=\frac{h_v}{h_u}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{v}{u}=\frac{h_v}{h_u}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{0.017}{9}=\frac{h_v}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow h_v=-0.00283\ m

The image height is 0.00283 m or 0.283 cm and is inverted due to the negative sign

A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kg and is 12 m above the ground. If it has a mechanical energy of 105.8 J, how fast is it moving?
Gnoma [55]
ME = PE + KE
ME = mgh + 1/2mv^2
105.8 J = (0.145)(9.81)(12m) + (1/2)(0.145)(v^2)<- what you need to solve for
105.8 J = 17.07 + 0.0725v^2
105.8 J - 17.07 = 0.0725v^2
88.73 = 0.0725v^2
88.73/0.0725 = v^2
1223.86 = v^2
√1223.86 = v
34.98 = v or v = 34.98

hope this helps :)
