The average distance from the sun to Pluto is approximately 6.10 × 109 km. How long does it take light from
1 answer:
It takes 20347.4098071s for light from the sun to reach Pluto.
The 6.1*10^9 is replaced by 6.1*10^12 on line 4 because we convert the distance from km to m.
c = speed of light. If a different value was given in the previous question then use that instead of the value I used to do the final calculation.

Answer:
a) y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm
b) y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm
Explanation:
The formula of Young's Double Slit experiment will be used here:
where,
y = distance between dark spots = ?
λ = wavelength
L = distance of screen = 2 m
d = slit width = 4 x 10⁻⁴ m
a) FOR λ = 480 nm = 4.8 x 10⁻⁷ m:
<u>y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm</u>
<u></u>
a) FOR λ = 640 nm = 6.4 x 10⁻⁷ m:
<u>y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm</u>
