A chemist identifies compounds by identifying bright lines in their spectra. She does so by heating the compounds until they glo

w, sending the light through a diffraction grating, and measuring the positions of first-order spectral lines on a detector 15.0 cm behind the grating. Unfortunately, she has lost the card that gives the specifications of the grating. Fortunately, she has a known compound that she can use to calibrate the grating. She heats the known compound, which emits light at a wavelength of 501 nm, and observes a spectral line 9.95 cm from the center of the diffraction pattern. PART A:
What is the wavelength emitted by compound A that have spectral line detected at position 8.55 cm?


PART B:


What is the wavelength emitted by compound B that have spectral line detected at position and 12.15 cm?

Answer:

 a)    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m  b)    λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

The diffraction network is described by the expression

      d sin θ= m λ

Where m corresponds to the diffraction order

Let's use trigonometry to find the breast

        tan θ = y / L

The diffraction spectrum is measured at very small angles, therefore

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

We replace

      d y / L = m λ

Let's place in the first order m = 1

Let's look for the separation of the lines (d)

     d = λ  L / y

     d = 501 10⁻⁹ 9.95 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

     d = 332.33 10⁻⁹ m

Now we can look for the wavelength of the other line

     λ  = d y / L

    λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 8.55 10⁻²/15 10⁻²

    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m

Part B

The compound wavelength B

      λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 12.15 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

      λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

The electron gun in an old TV picture tube accelerates electrons between two parallel plates 1.4cm apart with a 28kV potential d
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

a)   F = 3.2 10⁻¹⁰ N , b)       v = 9.9 10⁷ m / s

Explanation:

a) The electric force is

       F = q E

The electric field is related to the potential reference

     V = E d

     E = V / d

Let's replace

    F = e V / d

Let's calculate

    F = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 28 10³ / 1.4 10⁻²

    F = 3.2 10⁻¹⁰ N

b) For this part we can use kinematics

          v² = v₀ + 2 a d

          v = √ 2 ad

Acceleration can be found with Newton's second law

        e V / d = m a

        a = e / m V / d

        a = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ / 9.1 10⁻³¹ 28 10³ / 1.4 10⁻²

        a = 3,516 10⁻¹⁷ m / s²

Let's calculate the speed

       v = √ (2 3,516 10¹⁷ 1.4 10⁻²)

       v = √ (98,448 10¹⁴)

       v = 9.9 10⁷ m / s

A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a mass-less seesaw. If they both move forward so that they are one-half their
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Explanation:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Reason:-

When two kids are balanced, the sum of torques on the seesaw will be zero.

if each kid, reduces their distances by half, then the torque of each kid will be half and the sum of torque of each on the seesaw will be zero.

Therefore the seesaw is balanced

Two ropes have equal length and are stretched the same way. The speed of a pulse on rope 1 is 1.4 times the speed on rope 2. Par
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

m1/m2 = 0.51

Explanation:

First to all, let's gather the data. We know that both rods, have the same length. Now, the expression to use here is the following:

V = √F/u

This is the equation that describes the relation between speed of a pulse and a force exerted on it.

the value of "u" is:

u = m/L

Where m is the mass of the rod, and L the length.

Now, for the rod 1:

V1 = √F/u1 (1)

rod 2:

V2 = √F/u2 (2)

Now, let's express V1 in function of V2, because we know that V1 is 1.4 times the speed of rod 2, so, V1 = 1.4V2. Replacing in the equation (1) we have:

1.4V2 = √F/u1 (3)

Replacing (2) in (3):

1.4(√F/u2) = √F/u1 (4)

Now, let's solve the equation 4:

[1.4(√F/u2)]² = F/u1

1.96(F/u2) =F/u1

1.96F = F*u2/u1

1.96 = u2/u1 (5)

Now, replacing the expression of u into (5) we have the following:

1.96 = m2/L / m1/L

1.96 = m2/m1 (6)

But we need m1/m2 so:

1.96m1 = m2

m1/m2 = 1/1.96

m1/m2 = 0.51
