Hello

The ratio between depth of snow and depth of water is 10:1. So, if we use 45 cm as depth of snow, the proportion to write is
10:1=45:x
where x is the depth of equivalent water. From the proportion we get
x= \frac{45cm}{10} =4.5 cm.

Consider a single-slit diffraction pattern for λ=589nm , projected on a screen that is 1.00 m from a slit of width 0.25 mm. How
const2013 [10]

Answer: i) 2.356 × 10^-3 m = 2.356mm, ii) 4.712 × 10^-3 m = 4.712mm

Explanation: The formulae that relates the position of a fringe from the center to the wavelength, distance between slits and distance between slits and screen is given below as

y = R×(mλ/d)

Where y = distance between nth fringes and the center fringe.

m = order of fringe

λ = wavelength of light = 589nm = 589×10^-9m

R = distance between slits and screen = 1.0m

d = distance between slits = 0.25mm = 0.00025m

For distance between the first dark fringe and the center fringe.

This implies that m = 1

y = 1 × 589×10^-9 × 1/0.00025

y = 589×10^-9/0.00025

y = 2,356,000 × 10^-9

y = 2.356 × 10^-3 m = 2.356mm

For the second dark fringe, this implies that m = 2

y = 1 × 2 × 589×10^-9/0.00025

y = 1178 × 10^-9 /0.00025

y = 4,712,000 × 10^-9

y = 4.712 × 10^-3 m = 4.712mm

Explain how a star's absorption spectrum and the concept of red shift help support the Big Bang Theory.
marta [7]

Answer:

Red shift supports the big bang theory. ... The light from distant galaxies is red shifted (this tells us the galaxies are moving away from us) and the further away the galaxy the greater the red shift (this tells us that the more distant the galaxy the faster it is moving). Constellations look like they are moving because earth is rotating on it's axis.

May I have brainliest, please?
