A double-slit experiment yields an interference pattern due to the path length difference from light traveling through one slit
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Therefore the correct statement is B.

Explanation:

In the interference and diffraction phenomena, the natural wave of electromagnetic radiation must be taken into account, the wave front that advances towards the slit can be considered as when it reaches it behaves like a series of wave emitters, each slightly out of phase from the previous one, following the Huygens principle that states that each point is compiled as a source of secondary waves.

The sum of all these waves results in the diffraction curve of the slit that has the shape

      I = Io sin² θ /θ²

Where the angle is a function of the wavelength and the width of the slit.

From the above, the interference phenomenon can be treated as the sum of two diffraction phenomena displaced a distance equal to the separation of the slits (d)

Therefore the correct statement is B

An airplane travels at 300 mi/h south for 2.00 h and then at 250 mi/h north for 750 miles. What is the average speed for the tri
Anettt [7]

Answer:

270 mi/h

Explanation:

Given that,

To the south,

v₁ = 300 mi/h, t₁ = 2 h

We can find distance, d₁

d_1=v_1\times t_1\\\\d_1=300\times 2\\\\d_1=600\ \text{miles}

To the north,

v₂ = 250 mi/h, d₂ = 750 miles

We can find time, t₂

t_2=\dfrac{d_2}{v_2}\\\\t_2=\dfrac{750\ \text{miles}}{250\ \text{mi/h}}\\\\t_2=3\ h

Now,

Average speed = total distance/total time

V=\dfrac{d_1+d_2}{t_1+t_2}\\\\V=\dfrac{600+750}{2+3}\\\\V=270\ \text{mi/h}

Hence, the average speed for the trip is 270 mi/h.

The surface charge density on an infinite charged plane is - 2.10 ×10−6C/m2. A proton is shot straight away from the plane at 2.
inn [45]

Explanation:

Formula to calculate electric field because of the plate is as follows.

         E = \frac{\sigma}{2 \times \epsilon_{o}}

            = \frac{2.10 \times 10^{-6}}{2 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}}

           = 1.18 \times 10^{5} N/C

Now, we will consider that equilibrium of forces are present there. So,

                   ma = qE

       a = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1.18 \times 10^{5}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}

          = 1.13 \times 10^{13} m/s^2

According to the third equation of motion,

         v^{2} = 2 \times a \times d

or,      d = \frac{v^{2}}{2d}

             = \frac{(2.4 \times 10^{6})^{2}}{2 \times 1.13 \times 10^{13}}

             = 0.254 m

Thus, we can conclude that the proton will travel 0.254 m before reaching its turning point.

The crew of an enemy spacecraft attempts to escape from your spacecraft by moving away from you at 0.259 of the speed of light.
Vladimir79 [104]
If you do not have to use relative physics but classic physics, this is how you solve it:

Speed of light = c = 3 * 10^5 km/s

Speed of your foe respect to you: 0.259c

Speed of the torpedo respect to you: 0.349c

Speed of the torpedo respect your foe: 0.349c - 0.259c = 0.09c

Conversion to km/s = 0.09 * 3.0 * 10^5 km/s = 27000 km/s

Note that this solution, using classic physics do not take into account time and space dilation.

Answer: 27000 km/s
