It would take millions of years to form a mountain as plates move very slowly and to form it first one plate should climb upon another. After this very slowly this hill will convert into a mountain.

Monochromatic light of wavelength 687 nm is incident on a narrow slit. On a screen 1.65 m away, the distance between the second
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a ) 1.267 radian

b ) 1.084 10⁻³ mm

Explanation:

Distance of screen D = 1.65 m

Width of slit d = ?

Wave length of light   λ  = 687 nm.

Distance of second minimum fro centre y = 2.09 cm

Angle of diffraction = y / D

=  2.09 /1.65  

= 1.267. radian

Angle of diffraction of second minimum

= 2 λ / d

so 2 λ / d = 1.267

d = 2 λ / 1.267 = (2 x 687 ) /1.267 nm

=1084.45 nm = 1.084 x 10⁻³ mm.

The driver of a car slams on the brakes, causing the car to slow down at a rate of
sdas [7]

Answer:

A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Final velocity (V) = 0

Time (t) =?

Initial velocity (U) =?

A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.

Let us obtain an express for time (t)

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)

a = V/t

Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)

V = s/t

a = s/t^2

Cross multiply

a x t^2 = s

Divide both side by a

t^2 = s/a

Take the square root of both side

t = √(s/a)

Now we can obtain the time as follow

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Time (t) =..?

t = √(s/a)

t = √(256/26)

t = 3.14 secs

Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.

V = U + at

Final velocity (V) = 0

Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2

Time (t) = 3.14 sec

Initial velocity (U) =.?

0 = U – 26x3.14

0 = U – 81.64

Collect like terms

U = 81.64 ft/s

Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s
