Answer:

The  the intensity at an 11° angle to the axis in terms of the intensity of the central maximum is  

   I_c = \frac{I}{I_o}  =8.48 *10^{-8}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  width of the slit is  D  =  0.3 \ mm =  0.3 *10^{-3} \ m

    The  wavelength is  \lambda =  254 \ nm =  254 *10^{-9} \ m

     The angle is  \theta  =  11^o

The intensity of at 11^o to the axis in terms of the intensity of the central maximum. is mathematically represented as

        I_c = \frac{I}{I_o}  = [ \frac{sin \beta  }{\beta }] ^2

Where \beta is mathematically represented as

        \beta  =  \frac{D sin (\theta ) *  \pi}{\lambda }

substituting values

      \beta  =  \frac{0.3 *10^{-3} sin (11 ) * 3.142}{254 *10^{-9} }

     \beta  =  708.1 \ rad

So

  I_c = \frac{I}{I_o}  = [ \frac{sin (708.1)  }{(708.1)}] ^2

   I_c = \frac{I}{I_o}  =8.48 *10^{-8}

A heat pump absorbs heat from the atmosphere at a rate of 30 kW. If work is being done to run this heat pump at a rate of 7.7 kW
Volgvan

Answer:

Option D 3.9

Explanation:

First, you need to use the correct equation which is the following:

COP = Q/W

Where:

Q = heat absorbed

W = work done by the pump

COP = coefficient of perfomance

We have all the data, so, all you need to do is replace in the above expression and you shoould get the correct result:

COP = 30 / 7.7

COP = 3.896

This result you can round it to 3.9. option D.

Given vectors D (3.00 m, 315 degrees wrt x-axis) and E (4.50 m, 53.0 degrees wrt x-axis), find the resultant R= D + E. (a) Write
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

  • R = ( 4.831 m , 1.469 m )
  • Magnitude of R = 5.049 m
  • Direction of R relative to the x axis= 16°54'33'

Explanation:

Knowing the magnitude and directions relative to the x axis, we can find the Cartesian representation of the vectors using the formula

\vec{A}= | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )

where | \vec{A} | its the magnitude and θ.

So, for our vectors, we will have:

\vec{D}= 3.00 m \ ( \ cos(315) \ , \ sin (315) \ )

\vec{D}=  ( 2.121 m , -2.121 m )

and

\vec{E}= 4.50 m \ ( \ cos(53.0) \ , \ sin (53.0) \ )

\vec{E}= ( 2.71 m , 3.59 m )

Now, we can take the sum of the vectors

\vec{R} = \vec{D} + \vec{E}

\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m , -2.121 \ m ) + ( 2.71 \ m , 3.59 \ m )

\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m  + 2.71 \ m , -2.121 \ m + 3.59 \ m )

\vec{R} = ( 4.831 \ m , 1.469 \ m )

This is R in Cartesian representation, now, to find the magnitude we can use the Pythagorean theorem

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{(4.831 m)^2 + (1.469 m)^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{23.338 m^2 + 2.158 m^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{25.496 m^2}

|\vec{R}| = 5.049 m

To find the direction, we can use

\theta = arctan(\frac{R_y}{R_x})

\theta = arctan(\frac{1.469 \ m}{4.831 \ m})

\theta = arctan(0.304)

\theta = 16\°54'33''

As we are in the first quadrant, this is relative to the x axis.

Why are circuits important?
padilas [110]
You should draw a diagram of each for this question.
In a series circuit, the resistors experience the same current. In a parallel circuit, they have the same voltage drop. Therefore, the equivalent resistance is calculated differently for a series and parallel circuit.
Ohm's law: V=IR
Resistance keeps a circuit from shorting.
