Arsenic is Element Number 33 ... it has 33 protons in its nucleus.

You're correct that the stable isotope of the atom is the one with
42 neutrons, for a total Atomic Weight of 75.

Atoms of Arsenic also exist with 41 neutrons and 40 neutrons
in their nucleus, but those are unstable.

The nucleus with 41 neutrons (Atomic Weight = 74) has a 50% chance
of falling apart and becoming a nucleus of Germanium within 80 days.

The nucleus with 40 neutrons (Atomic Weight = 73) has a 50% chance
of falling apart and becoming a nucleus of Germanium within 18 days.

A certain pair of slits are separated by a distance d. Monochromatic coherent light falls on this pair of slits and the interfer
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The new separation distance between adjacent bright fringes will be <u>4 mm</u>

Explanation:

Since, the distance between adjacent bright fringes is given by the formula:

Δx₁ = λL/d = 2 mm  -------- eqn (1)

where,

Δx = Distance between adjacent bright fringes

λ = wavelength of light = constant for both cases

L = Distance between the slits and the screen

d = slit separation

Now, for the second case:

Slit Separation = d/2

Therefore,

Δx₂ = λL/(d/2)

Δx₂ = 2(λL/d)

using eqn (1), we get:

Δx₂ = 2 Δx₁

Δx₂ = 2(2 mm)

<u>Δx₂ = 4 mm</u>
