Answer:
Δx = 1.2 m
Explanation:
The CHANGE of spring length) (Δx) can be found using PS = ½kΔx²
Δx = √(2PS/k) = √(2(450)/650) = 1.17669... ≈ 1.2 m
The actual length of the spring is unknown as it varies with material type, construction method, extension or compression, and other variables we have no clue about.
Answer:
0.488 m
Explanation:
If θ be the angle ladder makes with the plane
cos θ = 1.2 / 5
Tan θ = 4.04
Let the height a person of weight 600 N can climb be h from the ground .
Distance from the base point where ladder touches the floor = h / tanθ
= h / 4.04
Total reaction force = total downward force
R = 200 + 600
800 N
Frictional force = μ R
= .2 x 800
= 160 N
Taking moment of force about the point on the ladder where it touches the floor and balancing them
200 x 1.2 x .5 + 600 x h / tanθ = μ R x 1.2 / tanθ ( reaction at the top point of ladder where it touches the wall is R₁ and
R₁ =μ R )
= 200 x 1.2 x .5 + 600 x h / tanθ = 160 x 1.2 / tanθ
120 - 600 h / 4.04 = 47.52
120 - 47.52 = 600 h / 4.04
72.48= 148.51 h
h = 0.488 m

Answer:
λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m
Explanation:
In a double-slit interference experiment, the distance y of the maximum of order m from the center of the observed interference pattern on the screen is given as ;
y = mλD/d
Where;
D is the distance of the screen from the slits = 6.2 m
d is the distance between the two slits = 0.046 mm = 0.046 x 10^(-3) m
The fringes on the screen are 8.9 cm = 0.089 m apart from each other, this means that the first maximum (m=1) is located at y = 0.089 m from the center of the pattern.
Therefore, from the previous formula we can find the wavelength of the light:
y = mλD/d
So, λ = dy/mD
Thus,
λ = (0.046 x 10^(-3) x 0.089)/(1 x 6.2)
λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m
