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

A ball hits a wall horizontally at 6m/s and rebounces at 4.4m/s the ball is in contact with wall for 0.04 sec. what is the accel
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 6 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 4.4 m/s

Time taken (t) = 0.04sec

Find:

Acceleration (a) = ?

Computation:

We know that,

⇒ v = u + at

⇒ a = (v - u) / t

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (4.4 - 6) / 0.04

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (-1.6) / 0.04

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²
