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 .

lara31 [8.8K]
The granite would be older. As millions of years go by, rocks are affected by weathering and erosion. These processes break down rocks and scatter them. Rocks are broken down into sediments, which mix with other layers, which could have been the reason how the layer of sandstone contains the small fragments of granite.

How much heat must be removed from 456 g of water at 25.0°C to change it into ice at - 10.0°C?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

229,098.96 J

Explanation:

mass of water (m) = 456 g = 0.456 kg

initial temperature (T) = 25 degrees

final temperature (t) = - 10 degrees

specific heat of ice = 2090 J/kg

latent heat of fusion =33.5 x 10^(4) J/kg

specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg

for the water to be converted to ice it must undergo three stages:

  • the water must cool from 25 degrees to 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of water x change in temp

        Q = 0.456 x 4186 x (25 - (-10)) = 66808.56 J

  • the water must freeze at 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of fusion x change in temp

         Q = 0.456 x 33.5 x 10^(4) = 152760 J

  • the water must cool further to -10 degrees from 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of ice x change in temp

        Q = 0.456 x 2090 x (0 - (-10)) = 9530.4 J

The quantity of heat removed from all three stages would be added to get the total heat removed.

Q total = 66,808.56 + 152,760 + 9,530.4 = 229,098.96 J
