We will use the principle of overlap, specifically the principle of constructive interference to solve this problem. Mathematically this can be expressed as

d sin\theta = N\lambda

Where,

N = Number of fringes or number of repetition of the spectrum

d = Distance between slits

\lambda = Wavelength

\theta =Diffraction angle

Our values are given as

\lambda = 600nm

d = 1.7*10^{-6}m

N = 2

Replacing we have that the angle is,

d sin\theta = N\lambda

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{N\lambda}{d})

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{2*(600*10^{-9})}{1.7*10^{-6}})

\theta = 44.9°

Therefore the second order line occurs at a diffraction angle of 44.9°

An archer puts a 0.30-kg arrow to the bowstring. An average force of 201 N is exerted to draw the string back 1.3 m. Assuming th
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

41.74 m/s

Explanation:

The energy used to draw the bowstring = the kinetic energy of the arrow.

Fd = 1/2mv²................................ Equation 1

Where F = force, d = distance move string, m = mass of the arrow, v = speed of the arrow.

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(2Fd/m)...................... Equation 2

Given: F = 201 N, m = 0.3 kg, d = 1.3 m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = √(2×201×1.3/0.3)

v = √(1742)

v = 41.74 m/s.

Hence the arrow leave the bow with a speed of 41.74 m/s

The speed of light in air is 3 x 108 m/s. The speed of light in ice is 2.29 x 108 m/s. What is the refractive index from air to
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

η = 1.31

Explanation:

The formula for the refractive index of from air to some other medium is given by the following formula:

\eta = \frac{c}{v}\\

where,

η = refractive index = ?

c = speed of light in air = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

v = speed of light in ice = 2.29 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore, using these values in the equation we get:

\eta = \frac{3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}{2.29\ x\ 10^8\ m/s} \\

<u>η = 1.31</u>
