In a double-slit experiment, the slits are illuminated by a monochromatic, coherent light source having a wavelength of 507 nm.

An interference pattern is observed on the screen. The distance between the screen and the double-slit is 1.32 m and the distance between the two slits is 0.112 mm. A light wave propogates from each slit to the screen. What is the path length difference between the distance traveled by the waves for the fifth-order maximum (bright fringe) on the screen

Answer:

The path difference is 2.53 \times 10^{-6} m

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength of light \lambda = 507 \times 10^{-9} m

Distance between slit and screen D = 1.32 m

Distance between two slit d = 0.112 \times 10^{-3} m

Order of interference n = 5

From the formula of interference of light,

   d\sin \theta = n\lambda

Where d \sin \theta = path difference, n = order of interference

Here we have to find path difference,

 Path difference = 5 \times 507 \times 10^{-9} m

 Path difference = 2.53 \times 10^{-6} m

Therefore, the path difference is 2.53 \times 10^{-6} m

What are the kinetic energy​
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

n physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion.[1] It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.

In classical mechanics, the kinetic energy of a non-rotating object of mass m traveling at a speed v is {\displaystyle {\begin{smallmatrix}{\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}\end{smallmatrix}}}{\begin{smallmatrix}{\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}\end{smallmatrix}}. In relativistic mechanics, this is a good approximation only when v is much less than the speed of light.

The standard unit of kinetic energy is the joule, while the imperial unit of kinetic energy is the foot-pound.

Does it take more force to slow something down than to speed it up.
ANTONII [103]
To bring something to a stop the same force that was applied to speed it up can be used to stop it. If a greater force is used it will stop quicker.

spayn [35]

Answer:

v = 15.56 m/s

v = 56 km/h

Explanation:

When coefficient of friction is approximately zero then we have

F_ncos\theta = mg

F_n sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

tan\theta = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

here we know that

v = 40 km/h = 11.11 m/s

R = 30 m

tan\theta = \frac{11.11^2}{30\times 9.81}

\theta = 22.75 degree

now when friction coefficient is 0.30 then we have

F_n cos\theta = mg + F_f sin\theta

F_f cos\theta + F_n sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

now we have

v = \sqrt{Rg(\frac{\mu + tan\theta}{1 - \mu tan\theta})}

v = \sqrt{30(9.81)(\frac{0.30 + tan22.75}{1 - (0.30) tan22.75})}

v = 15.56 m/s

v = 56 km/h
