Answer:

The quantities to measure are:

* the distance to the screen

* The distance from the central maximum to each interference

* in order of interference

* wavelength

Explanation:

To determine the gap spacing we must use the constructive interference equation

            d sin θ = m λ

as the angles are small

          tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

          tan θ = sin θ

and the definition of tangent is

          tan θ = y / L

Thus

         sin θ = y / L

when replacing

          d y / L = m λ

          d = m λ L / y

with this equation we can know what parameter should be measured.

The quantities to measure are:

* the distance to the screen

* The distance from the central maximum to each interference

* in order of interference

* wavelength

Two children, Ferdinand and Isabella, are playing with a water hose on a sunny summer day. Isabella is holding the hose in her h
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Isabella will not be able to spray Ferdinand.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the time taken for the water to get to the ground from the hose held at 1 m above the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =.?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s

Next, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the water. This can be obtained as follow:

Horizontal velocity (u) = 3.5 m/s

Time (t) = 0.45 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 3.5 × 0.45

s = 1.58 m

Finally, we shall compare the distance travelled by the water and the position to which Ferdinand is located to see if they are the same or not. This is illustrated below:

Ferdinand's position = 10 m

Distance travelled by the water = 1.58 m

From the above, we can see that the position of the water (i.e 1.58 m) and that of Ferdinand (i.e 10 m) are not the same. Thus, Isabella will not be able to spray Ferdinand.

A negative charge of 20 x 10-6C and another charge of 15 x 10-6C are separated by as distance of 0.7 m.
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Approximately 5.5\; \rm N, assuming that the volume of these two charged objects is negligible.

Explanation:

Assume that the dimensions of these two charged objects is much smaller than the distance between them. Hence, Coulomb's Law would give a good estimate of the electrostatic force between these two objects regardless of their exact shapes.

Let q_1 and q_2 denote the magnitude of two point charges (where the volume of both charged object is negligible.) In this question, q_1 = 20 \times 10^{-6}\; \rm C  and q_2 = 15 \times 10^{-6}\; \rm C.

Let r denote the distance between these two point charges. In this question, r = 0.7\; \rm m.

Let k denote the Coulomb constant. In standard units, k \approx 8.98755\times 10^{9}\; \rm kg \cdot m^{3}\cdot s^{-2}\cdot C^{-2}.

By Coulomb's Law, the magnitude of electrostatic force (electric force) between these two point charges would be:

\begin{aligned}F &= \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}}\end{aligned}.

Substitute in the values and evaluate:

\begin{aligned}F &= \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}}\\ &\approx 8.98755 \times 10^{9}\; \rm kg \cdot m^{3}\cdot s^{-2}\cdot C^{-2} \\ &\quad \times 20\times 10^{-6}\; \rm C\\ &\quad \times 15\times 10^{-6}\; \rm C \\ &\quad \times \frac{1}{{(0.7\; \rm m)}^{2}}\\ &\approx 5.5\; \rm N \end{aligned}.
