Answer:

5 x 10^4 N/m^2

Explanation:

Pressure, force and area are related witg the following equation;

Pressure = Force /Area

From the question, we obtained the following information;

Force = 2N

Area = 0.00004m^2

Pressure =?

Pressure = Force /Area

Pressure = 2/0.00004

Pressure = 5 x 10^4N/m^2

Monochromatic light falls on two very narrow slits 0.048 mm apart. successive fringes on a screen 5.00 m away are 6.5 cm apart n

atroni [7]

In a double-slit interference experiment, the distance y of the maximum of order m from the center of the observed interference pattern on the screen is
$y= \frac{m \lambda D}{d}$
where D=5.00 m is the distance of the screen from the slits, and
$d=0.048 mm=0.048 \cdot 10^{-3}m$ is the distance between the two slits.
The fringes on the screen are 6.5 cm=0.065 m apart from each other, this means that the first maximum (m=1) is located at y=0.065 m from the center of the pattern.
Therefore, from the previous formula we can find the wavelength of the light:
$\lambda = \frac{yd}{mD}= \frac{(0.065 m)(0.048 \cdot 10^{-3}m)}{(1)(5.00 m)}= 6.24 \cdot 10^{-7}m$

And from the relationship between frequency and wavelength, $c=\lambda f$ , we can find the frequency of the light:
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{6.24 \cdot 10^{-7}m}=4.81 \cdot 10^{14}Hz$

An object is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 10 m/s, and there is an air resistance force causing an acceleration

lana [24]

Answer:

Vf= 7.29 m/s

Explanation:

Two force act on the object:

1) Gravity

2) Air resistance

Upward motion:

Initial velocity = Vi= 10 m/s

Final velocity = Vf= 0 m/s

Gravity acting downward = g = -9.8 m/s²

Air resistance acting downward = a₁ = - 3 m/s²

Net acceleration = a = -(g + a₁ ) = - ( 9.8 + 3 ) = - 12.8 m/s²

( Acceleration is consider negative if it is in opposite direction of velocity )

Now

2as = Vf² - Vi²

⇒ 2 * (-12.8) *s = 0 - 10²

⇒-25.6 *s = -100

⇒ s = 100/ 25.6

⇒ s = 3.9 m

Downward motion:

Vi= 0 m/s

s = 3.9 m

Gravity acting downward = g = 9.8 m/s²

Air resistance acting upward = a₁ = - 3 m/s²

Net acceleration = a = g - a₁ = 9.8 - 3 = 6.8 m/s²

Now

2as = Vf² - Vi²

⇒ 2 * 6.8 * 3.9 = Vf² - 0

⇒ Vf² = 53. 125

⇒ Vf= 7.29 m/s

How do the principles of convection, conduction, and radiation explain how the water in the saucepan gets hot?

RSB [31]

<span>Heat comes from stove flame to the sauce pan by radiation through infrared energy, heat conducts the metal of the sauce pan; Convection brings cool water to the hot surface at the bottom of the hot sauce pan until all or most of the water is hot enough to boil.</span>
