White light is incident on a diffraction grating. What color is the central maximum of the interference pattern?

Physics

lara [203]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The color of the central maximum is white.

Explanation:

A diffraction grating in optics is generally known as an optical component that contains a periodic structure. It is commonly used to breakdown and diffract light into different beams that move in several directions. For example, if a light ray is allowed to pass through the component (i.e. diffraction grating), the   central maximum will have a white color.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

In this exercise you are asked to analyze the following situation: for a fixed observer, the two balloons are launched at the same time.

If the observer is mobile moving towards the positive side of axis ax we have several

possibilities when starting the movement

* the observer is to the left of the two balloons

* the observer is between the two balloons

* the observer is to the right of the two baloomls

The time it takes for the signal to arrive to know which ball goes first is

             v = d / t

             t = d / v

If the signal goes at the speed of light, the speed is a constant and the time will depend only on the distance, so we see that the trigger changes depending on the relative position between a given ball and the observer.

Consequently, it will be seen which comes out first, depending on the relative position with the observer.

           

The correct answer is C

A resistor with resistance R and an air-gap capacitor of capacitance C are connected in series to a battery (whose strength is "
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

a) Q = C*emf

b)  Reduction in electric field strength and electric potential

c) Initial current through the resistor = emf/R

d) The final charge = K*C*emf

Explanation:

a) The resistors and capacitors are connected in series with the battery

Using Kirchoff's voltage law, sum of all voltages in the circuit is zero

Let V_{R} = Voltage dropped across the Resistor

V_{c} = Voltage dropped across the capacitor

Applying KVL;

emf - V_{R}  - V_{c} = 0\\.........................(1)

Since the connection is in series, the same current flow through the circuit

V_{R} = IR\\Q = CV_{c} \\V_{c} = Q/C

Putting V_{c} and V_{R} into equation (1)

emf - IR - Q/C = 0

At the final charge, the capacitor in fully charged, and current drops to zero due to equilibrium

I = 0A\\emf = Q/C\\Q = C* emf

b) Current starts running through the plate because as the sheet of plastic is inserted between the plates both the electric field intensity and the electric potential reduces. The charge also reduces, then current flows

c) The current through the resistor is the current through the entire circuit ( series connection)

I = I_{o} \exp(\frac{-t}{RC} )\\At time the initial time, t\\t = 0\\ I_{o} = \frac{emf}{R} \\

Putting the values of t and I₀ into the formula for I written above

I = \frac{emf}{R} \exp(0)\\I = \frac{emf}{R}

d) NB: The initial charge on the capacitor = C * emf

The final charge will be:

Q = K* Q_{initial} \\Q_{initial}  = C *emf\\Q_{final}  = KCemf
