You are comparing two diffraction gratings using two different lasers: a green laser and a red laser. You do these two experimen

ts
1. Shining the green laser through grating A you see the first maximum 1 meter away from the center
2. Shining the red laser through grating B, you see the first maximum 1 meter away from the center

In both cases, the gratings are the same distance from the screen.

(a) What can you deduce about the gratings?
(b) What would you observe if you shone the green laser through grating B:?

a. (a) grating A has more lines/mm; (b) the first maximum less than 1 meter away from the center
b. (a) grating B has more lines/mm; (b) the first maximum less than 1 meter away from the center
c.(a) grating B has more lines/mm; (b) the first maximum more than 1 meter away from the center
d. (a) grating B has more lines/mm: (b) the first maximum 1 meter away from the center
e. (a) grating A has more lines/mm; (b) the first maximum more than 1 meter away from the center
f. (a) grating A has more lines/mm; (b) the first maximum 1 meter away from the center

Answer:

a. (a) grating A has more lines/mm; (b) the first maximum less than 1 meter away from the center

Explanation:

Let  n₁ and n₂ be no of lines per unit length  of grating A and B respectively.

λ₁ and λ₂ be wave lengths of green and red respectively , D be distance of screen and d₁ and d₂ be distance between two slits of grating A and B ,

Distance of first maxima for green light

= λ₁ D/ d₁

Distance of first maxima for red light

= λ₂ D/ d₂

Given that

λ₁ D/ d₁ = λ₂ D/ d₂

λ₁ / d₁ = λ₂ / d₂

λ₁ / λ₂  = d₁ / d₂

But

λ₁  <  λ₂

d₁ < d₂

Therefore no of lines per unit length of grating A will be more because

no of lines per unit length  ∝ 1 / d

If grating B is illuminated with green light first maxima will be at distance

λ₁ D/ d₂

As λ₁ < λ₂

λ₁ D/ d₂ < λ₂ D/ d₂

λ₁ D/ d₂ < 1 m

In this case position of first maxima will be less than 1 meter.

Option a is correct .

-- What's the volume of a cylinder with radius=1m and height=55m ?

         ( Volume of a cylinder = π R² h )

-- How much does that volume of water weigh ?

            1 liter of water = 1 kilogram of mass
            Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) 

-- What's the area of the bottom of that 1m-radius cylinder ?

       Pressure  =  (force) / (area)

a block of wood has a length of 4 cm a width of 5 cm and a height of 10 cm what is the volume of the wood
geniusboy [140]

Volume= Length X width X height.

Plug in the values for each and solve for the volume.

V= (L)(W)(H)

V=(4cm)(5cm)(10cm).

A student with a mass of 62.0 kg walks up a flight of stairs with a height of 3.40 meters. If it takes him 7.00 seconds to get t
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Power generate by generator = 265 W (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of student = 62 kg

Height of stairs = 3.4 meter

Time taken = 7 second

Find:

Power generate by generator

Computation:

Power = Force x [Distance / Time]

Power = [Mass x gravitational acceleration] x [Distance / Time]

Power = [62 x 9.8][3.4/7]

Power = [607.6][3.4/7]

Power = 265.12

Power generate by generator = 265.12

Power generate by generator = 265 W (Approx.)

An object has a force of 10 newtons from the right and 17 newtons from the left. Once the object starts moving toward the right,
Debora [2.8K]
The object will come to a halt.

Resultant force at start:17-10=7 to the left
When additional force is added to the right,it balances the forces acting in the object.

7N to the right and 7N to the left suggests that the object will come to a halt as it is in equilibrium.
