Light of wavelength 660 nm passes through two narrow slits 0.65 mm apart. The screen is 2.55 m away. A second source of unknown

wavelength produces its second-order fringe 1.17 mm closer to the central maximum than the 660 nm light. What is the wavelength of the unknown light?

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance of 2 nd order fringe  x₁ = 2 λ D/d [ λ is wave length , D is distance of screen , d is slit distance.

x₁ = 2 x 660 x10⁻⁹x 2.55/.65 x 10⁻³.= 5.17846 x 10⁻³ m.

Distance of fringe for 2nd radiation = 5.178 x 10⁻³ -1.17 x 10⁻³ = 4.008 x10⁻³

4.008 x 10⁻³ = 2 x λ x 2.55/.65 x 10⁻³

λ = 511 nm approx.

A bus contains a 1440 kg flywheel (a disk that has a 0.63 m radius) and has a total mass of 10200 kg. Calculate the angular velo
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:\omega =93.51 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of Flywheel m_1=1440 kg

mass of bus m_b=10200 kg

radius of Flywheel r=0.63 m

final speed of bus v=21 m/s

Conserving Energy i.e.

0.9(Rotational Energy of Flywheel)= change in Kinetic Energy of bus

Let \omegabe the angular velocity of Flywheel

0.9\cdot \frac{I\omega ^2}{2}=\frac{m_bv^2}{2}

I=moment\ of\ Inertia =mr^2=1440\cdot 0.63^2=571.536 kg-m^2

0.9\cdot \frac{571.536\cdot \omega ^2}{2}=\frac{10200\cdot 21^2}{2}

\omega ^2=21^2\times \frac{10200}{0.9\times 571.536}

\omega =21\times 4.45=93.51 rad/s

A soap bubble usually pops because some part of it becomes too thin due to evaporation or drainage of fluid. The change in thick
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

To understand why the change in thickness also changes the color of light the bubble reflects, we definitely know that

mλ = dsinθ

when d sin θ = mλ, we expect constructive interference

d = distance between the slits

θ = the angle relative to the incident direction

m = order of the interference

Hence, a change in the thickness will also cause a change in the wavelength, and as wavelength changes, various colors are generated.

The light's path difference is therefore generated as a result of the thickness variation of the soap bubble.

Solve this system of equations without graphing and show your reasoning <br><br> 5x+y=7<br> 20x+2=y
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

5x + y = 7

20x - y = -2

    25x = 5

        x = (1/5)

5(1/5) + y = 7

1 + y = 7 .

y = 6

What is the change in air pressure over a given distance called?.
emmainna [20.7K]
The change in pressure measured across a given distance called a Pressure Gradient. The pressure gradient creates a net force that is directed from higher to lower pressure and is called the Pressure Gradient Force. ... As air increases in velocity, it is deflected by the Coriolis Force.

Problem 3.2 Part A Draw the vector C⃗ =A⃗ +B⃗ .(Figure 1)
Elodia [21]
I can't answer this question without a figure. I've found a similar problem as shown in the first picture attached. When adding vectors, you don't have to add the magnitudes only, because vectors also have to factor in the directions. To find the resultant vector C, connect the end tails of the individual vectors. <em>The red line (second picture) represents the vector C.</em>
