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?
Please show work.

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>

An object moves in one dimensional motion with constant acceleration a = 5 m/s^2. At time t = 0 s, the object is at x0 = 2.7 m a

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

x = 5 m ;approximate

Explanation:

Kinematic equation for the object

Because the object moves with uniformly accelerated motion we apply the following equation:

$(v_{f})^{2} =(v_{o})^{2} + 2*a*d$

$v_{f}$ : final speed ( m/s)

$v_{o}$ : initial speed ( m/s)

a: acceleration: ( m/s²)

d : distance (m)

Initial Conditions:

t₀=0 , x₀= 2.7 m, v₀= 4.3 m/s

x₀= inicial position

Final Conditions:

a= 5 m/s² , vf= 6.4 m/s

Calculation of the distance traveled by the object in final condition

We apply the formula (1)

$(v_{f})^{2} = (v_{o} )^{2} +2*a*d$

$d = \frac{6.4^{2}- 4.3^{2} }{2*5}$

d= 2.247 m

Calculation of the final position : $x_{f}$

$x_{f} =x_{o} +d$

$x_{f} = 2.7 m + 2.247 m$

$x_{f} =4.947 m$

$x_{f} = 5m$ : approximate

If two equal forces act on an object in opposite directions, what is the net

labwork [276]

Answer:

Net Force = 0

Explanation:

Causes objects to accelerate. Balanced Forces. Two equal forces push in opposite direction causing no change in motion causing net force = 0.

When air pressure is lower what happens to a balloon filled with air

andriy [413]

Answer: The balloon will expand.

Explanation: The pressure of the air inside the balloon will be greater than the air pressure outside of the balloon. This causes the balloon to expand.

A solenoid has a radius Rs = 14.0 cm, length L = 3.50 m, and Ns = 6500 turns. The current in the solenoid decreases at the rate

babymother [125]

Answer:

E = 58.7 V/m

Explanation:

As we know that flux linked with the coil is given as

$\phi = NBA$

here we have

$A = \pi R_s^2$

$B = \mu_o N i/L$

now we have

$\phi = N(\mu_o N i/L)(\pi R_s^2)$

now the induced EMF is rate of change in magnetic flux

$EMF = \frac{d\phi}{dt} = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L$

now for induced electric field in the coil is linked with the EMF as

$\int E. dL = EMF$

$E(2\pi r_c) = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L$

$E = \frac{\mu_o N^2 R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}}{2 r_c L}$

$E = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7})(6500^2)(0.14^2)(79)}{2(0.20)(3.50)}$

$E = 58.7 V/m$

A 3.8 car is traveling at 19 m/s . What is it's momentum?

pashok25 [27]

The Momentum Calculator uses the formula p=mv, or momentum (p) is equal to mass (m) times velocity (v).
