Answer:
The ratio of the diameter of iron to Cu is;
Explanation:
R=(ρL)/A
- R is resistance,
- L is length,
- A is area,
- ρ is resistivity
- d is diameter
from the question the two materials have the same resistance per unit length.
for iron = for copper
This means we can equate ρ/A for both materials.
re-arranging the equation we have,
Answer:
d = 68.5 x 10⁻⁶ m = 68.5 μm
Explanation:
The complete question is as follows:
An optical engineer needs to ensure that the bright fringes from a double-slit are 15.7 mm apart on a detector that is 1.70m from the slits. If the slits are illuminated with coherent light of wavelength 633 nm, how far apart should the slits be?
The answer can be given by using the formula derived from Young's Double Slit Experiment:
where,
d = slit separation = ?
λ = wavelength = 633 nm = 6.33 x 10⁻⁷ m
L = distance from screen (detector) = 1.7 m
y = distance between bright fringes = 15.7 mm = 0.0157 m
Therefore,
<u>d = 68.5 x 10⁻⁶ m = 68.5 μm</u>
Answer:
Because of the speed of the sound.
Explanation:
The first thing that happens in such cases is to take into account the speed of the sound. First, we see that the player hits the ball with the bat, if we are in the stands far enough we will hear the sound of the batting time later, this time depends on the speed of the sound which is equal to 345 [m/s].
Another visible and practical example is a fireworks display, where people nearby immediately hear the explosion. while those at a great distance will be able to see first the explosion followed by the sound.
With the following equation, we can calculate how long it takes to hear a hit or explosion
t = x / v
where:
x = distance [m]
v = sound velocity = 345 [m/s]
t = time [s]
Answer:
Explanation:
The Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them:
In this case, we have :
