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 sun emits electromagnetic waves with a power of 4.0 × 10²⁶ W. Determine the intensity of electromagnetic waves from the sun
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

I_v = 2,700 W / m^2

I_m = 610 W / m^2

I_s = 16 W / m^2

Explanation:

Given:

- The Power of EM waves emitted by Sun P_s = 4.0*10^26 W

- Radius of Venus r_v = 1.08 * 10^11 m

- Radius of Mars r_m = 2.28 * 10^11 m

- Radius of Saturn r_s = 1.43 * 10^12 m

Find:

Determine the intensity of electromagnetic waves from the sun just outside the atmospheres of (a) Venus, (b) Mars, and (c) Saturn.

Solution:

- We know that Power is related to intensity and surface area of an object follows:

                                        I = P / 4*pi*r^2

Where, A is the surface area of a sphere models the atmosphere around the planets.

a)

- The intensity at the surface of Venus is calculated as:

                                       I_v = P_s / 4*pi*r^2_v

                                       I_v = 4.0*10^26 / 4*pi*(1.08*10^11)^2

                                       I_v = 2,700 W / m^2

b)

- The intensity at the surface of Mars is calculated as:

                                       I_m = P_s / 4*pi*r^2_m

                                       I_m = 4.0*10^26 / 4*pi*(2.28*10^11)^2

                                      I_m = 610 W / m^2

c)

- The intensity at the surface of Saturn is calculated as:

                                       I_s = P_s / 4*pi*r^2_s

                                       I_s = 4.0*10^26 / 4*pi*(1.43*10^12)^2

                                      I_s = 16 W / m^2

Answer:

1st t=d/s

2nd s=d/t

5th d=st

are all of the variations I came up with

Explanation:

the original formula for speed is s=d/t

then, I created a ratio of s/1=d/t and cross multiplied to find d=st

then, I isolated the t in one side by dividing by s on both sides.

If there is no dropped ceiling, or if the drop is not as much as the height of the recessed luminaires, you will find that the c
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The answer is "4".

Explanation:

The luminaire would be recessed inside a wall, so that, dependent on the surface mountings, its top-level is flush with the ceiling. It is the hanging under the primary structural, in which the drop was an area of the above falling ceiling, that referred to its full space, because it will be generally used for the HVAC air return and the total space is also used to obfuscate piping, cabling, and ducts, that's why the middle-to-middle spacing of curved lighting systems would have to be in incremental increases of 4 ft.
