Young's double slit experiment(YDSE) can be used for any kind of waves such as electromagnetic waves, sound waves, water waves, gravity waves. YDSE is based on interference. In this experiment, we make two waves interfere in order to obtain bright and dark fringes on the screen(in case of light).
You can carry this out with water, would be great if you try this at pond or water reservoir in order to see perfect ripples.

Which atomic number is the threshold value below which fusion may occur?
Luda [366]

Answer:

The atomic number 26(iron) is the threshold value below which the fusion might occur.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

Energy released in a fusion reaction is because of a key feature of nuclear matter called the binding energy which is a measure of the efficiency with which its constituent nucleons are bound together.

As we go up in atomic number, the energy released per nuclei goes down until it hits a minimum which is for atomic number 26 (iron) and fusion is not possible.

Earth has a mass of 5,970,000 how would scientists express this in a number scientific notation
Kazeer [188]

Taking into account the definition of Scientific notation, the correct representation of 5,970,000 in scientific notation is 5.97×10⁶.

<h3>Definition of scientific notation</h3>

Scientific notation is a quick way to represent a number using powers of base 10.

The numbers are written as a product:

a×10ⁿ

where:

  • a is a real number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10, to which a decimal point is added after the first digit if it is a non-integer number.
  • n is a whole number, which is called an exponent or an order of magnitude. Represents the number of times the point decimal is shifted. It is always an integer, positive if it is shifted to the left, negative if it is shifted to the right.

<h3>This case</h3>

In this case, to write the number 5,970,000 in scientific notation, the following steps are performed:

  • The decimal point is moved to the left as many spaces until it reaches the right of the first digit. This number will be the value of a in the previous expression. Then a = 5.97
  • The base 10 is written with the exponent equal to the number of spaces that the decimal point moves. This is a positive number because the decimal point is shifted to the left, and it will have a value of n = 6.

Finally, the correct representation of 5,970,000 in scientific notation is 5.97×10⁶.

A 4.5 g coin sliding to the right at 23.8 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 13.5 g coin that is initially at rest.
Airida [17]

Answer:

a) v = 11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} \,(11.9\,\frac{cm}{s} ), b) \Delta K = 9.559\times 10^{-5}\,J

Explanation:

a) The final velocity of the 13.5 g coin is found by the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(4.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot (23.8\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} )+(13.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg})\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s} ) = (4.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot (-11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} )+(13.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg})\cdot v

The final velocity is:

v = 11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} \,(11.9\,\frac{cm}{s} )

b) The change in the kinetic energy of the 13.5 g coin is:

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (13.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left[(11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(0\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}\right]

\Delta K = 9.559\times 10^{-5}\,J
