A pair of slits in a double slit experiment are illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength 480 nm. The slits are separat

ed by 1.0mm. What is the separation of the fringes when observed at a distance of 2.0 m from the slits?

Using the appropriate approximations:

dx/L = mλ

d = slit separation

x = fringe spacing

L = distance between slits and screen

m = some integer, used to determine the distance from the central bright fringe to another bright fringe


We don't really need a value for m because we're calculating the distance between any pair of consecutive fringes. Let's just set m = 1


Given values:

d = 1.0mm

L = 2.0m

λ = 480nm


Substitute the terms in the equation with our given values and solve for x:

1.0*10⁻³*x/2 = 480*10⁻9

<h3>x = 0.96mm</h3>

Electric fields are vector quantities whose magnitudes are measured in units of volts/meter (V/m). Find the resultant electric f
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Er = 231.76 V/m, 27.23° to the left of E1

Explanation:

To find the resultant electric field, you can use the component method. Where you add the respective x-component and y-component of each vector:

E1:

E_1_x = 0V/m\\E_1_y=100V/m

E2:

Keep in mind that the x component of electric field E2 is directed to the left.

E_2_x= 150V/m*-sin(45) = 106.07 V/m\\E_2_y=150V/m*cos(45) = 106.07V/m

∑x: E_1_x+E_2_x = 0V/m - 106.07V/m = -106.07V/m

∑y: E_1_y + E_2_y = 100V/m + 106.07V/m = 206.07V/m

The magnitud of the resulting electric field can be found using pythagorean theorem. For the direction, we will use trigonometry.

||E_r||= \sqrt{(-106.07V/m)^2+(206.07V/m)^2} = 231.76 V/m\\\\\alpha = arctan(\frac{206.7 V/m}{-106.07 V/m}) = 117.24degrees

or 27.23° to the left of E1.

Aristotle said that a moving earthly or `mundane' object with nothing pushing or pulling on it will always A slow down and stop.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

A slow down and stop

Explanation:

When there is no force acting on something it automatically begins to slow down and then stops.Essentially, Aristotle's perspective of motion is that "it requires a force to move an object in an unnatural" way— or, plainly, that "movement involves strength." Indeed, if you propel a book, it keeps moving. Once you stop trying to push, it comes to a stop.

Jerry runs 60 meters east and then 20 meters west in 10
liraira [26]

Answer: 8 meters per second

Explanation: If you add 60 to 20 you get 80 meters and since he ran those 80 meters in 10 seconds you divide 80 by ten and get 8 and then you get 8m/s
