A diffraction grating is made up of slits of width 260 nm with separation 810 nm. The grating is illuminated by monochromatic pl

ane waves of wavelength λ = 550 nm at normal incidence.
a. How many maxima are there in the full diffraction pattern?
b. What is the angular width of a spectral line observed in the first order if the grating has 1300 slits?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Grafting width is 260nm

Separation is d= 810nm

Wavelength is λ = 550 nm

A. The condition for maximum grating is given as

d Sinθ = mλ

where,

λ is the wavelength

d is the operation between the two slit.

The range is Sinθ is -1 and 1

But since θ Is between 0-180°

Then, 0≤Sinθ≤1

Then, we must have d ≥ mλ

So, d/λ ≤m

Then, m ≥ d/λ

m ≥ 810/550

m ≥1.47

So, we can take m = 1

There are three maxima m = -1,0,1

b. When N = 1300.

For first order maxima m = 1

Then, d Sinθ = mλ

d Sinθ = λ

The angular width is given as.

∆θ = λ/NdCosθ, where d Sinθ = λ

∆θ = dSinθ/NdCosθ

∆θ = tanθ/N, equation 1

d Sinθ = λ

Sinθ = λ / d

θ = ArcSin(λ/d)

θ = ArcSin(550/810)

θ = 42.77°

Substituting theta into equation 1

∆θ = tanθ/N

∆θ = tan(42.77)/1000

∆θ = 0.000925rad

To degree 2πrad = 360°

∆θ = 0.000925rad × 360°/2πrad

∆θ = 0.053°

The angular width of the spectral line is observed to be 0.053°

The periodic table is an arrangement of the chemical elements in the form of a table, ordered by:

-Their atomic number (number of protons)

-Their configuration of electrons

-Their chemical properties

It was progressively developed over time as the scientific knowledge advanced; for this reason many modifications and corrections might be done in the future.

Its usefulness lies in the fact that it allows the existing elements to be organized in a more structured and coherent way, according to the chemical properties they possess. Dividing the table into rows and columns, which represent the periods and groups or families.

Then, with the location and classification of an element according to its group, we can determine how it acts by knowing its chemical and physical characteristics.

This is how with this configuration can be distinguished 4 sets of chemical elements, according to the ease of their atoms to lose or gain electrons, transforming into ions: metals, semimetals, non-metals and noble gases.

This has helped to predict the existence of various elements that have not yet been discovered, because by elements already located in the table and the periodicity found, <u>there are still empty spaces that indicate the composition of the element that has not yet been found</u>.

In addition, this table helps to simplify in some way the teaching of chemical elements and facilitates their learning, as well as their usage in the development of technological innovations.

Conduction is the movement of heat energy because of
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more. These molecules then bump into nearby particles and transfer some of their energy to them. This then continues and passes the energy from the hot end down to the colder end of the substance.

What is the net force on a bag pulled down by gravity with a force of 18 newtons and pulled upward by a rope with a force of 18
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

0 N.

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and the acceleration of the body. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N).

The expression of net force when both force act in the different direction is given as

F' = W-F ........................ Equation 1

Where F' = Net force on the bag, W = gravitational force on the bag, F = Force acting upward on the bag

Given: W = 18 N, F = 18 N.

Substitute into equation 1

F' = 18-18

F' = 0 N.

Hence the net force = 0 N.
