Which theory does Young's double slit experiment illustrate?

Physics
1 answer:
sveta [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: C. The dual nature of light

Explanation:

Young’s double slit experiment showed the dual behaviour of light (and matter) as a wave and as a particle.

Although currently it is known that light behaves as a wave and as a particle. It should be noted that many years ago it was thought light had only a corpuscular behaviour. In fact, the first to propose the corpuscular theory of light was Issac Newton, while Christian Huygens (who was contemporaneous with him) proposed the wave theory.

However, when Thomas Young performed  the double slit experiment with photons (light) the result was: Light is able to behave also as waves.

Three masses (3 kg, 5 kg, and 7 kg) are located in the xy-plane at the origin, (2.3 m, 0), and (0, 1.5 m), respectively.
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

a) C.M =(\bar x, \bar y)=(0.767,0.7)m

b) (x_4,y_4)=(-1.917,-1.75)m

Explanation:

The center of mass "represent the unique point in an object or system which can be used to describe the system's response to external forces and torques"

The center of mass on a two dimensional plane is defined with the following formulas:

\bar x =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^N m_i x_i}{M}

\bar y =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^N m_i y_i}{M}

Where M represent the sum of all the masses on the system.

And the center of mass C.M =(\bar x, \bar y)

Part a

m_1= 3 kg, m_2=5kg,m_3=7kg represent the masses.

(x_1,y_1)=(0,0),(x_2,y_2)=(2.3,0),(x_3,y_3)=(0,1.5) represent the coordinates for the masses with the units on meters.

So we have everything in order to find the center of mass, if we begin with the x coordinate we have:

\bar x =\frac{(3kg*0m)+(5kg*2.3m)+(7kg*0m)}{3kg+5kg+7kg}=0.767m

\bar y =\frac{(3kg*0m)+(5kg*0m)+(7kg*1.5m)}{3kg+5kg+7kg}=0.7m

C.M =(\bar x, \bar y)=(0.767,0.7)m

Part b

For this case we have an additional mass m_4=6kg and we know that the resulting new center of mass it at the origin C.M =(\bar x, \bar y)=(0,0)m and we want to find the location for this new particle. Let the coordinates for this new particle given by (a,b)

\bar x =\frac{(3kg*0m)+(5kg*2.3m)+(7kg*0m)+(6kg*a)}{3kg+5kg+7kg+6kg}=0m

If we solve for a we got:

(3kg*0m)+(5kg*2.3m)+(7kg*0m)+(6kg*a)=0

a=-\frac{(5kg*2.3m)}{6kg}=-1.917m

\bar y =\frac{(3kg*0m)+(5kg*0m)+(7kg*1.5m)+(6kg*b)}{3kg+5kg+7kg+6kg}=0m

(3kg*0m)+(5kg*0m)+(7kg*1.5m)+(6kg*b)=0

And solving for b we got:

b=-\frac{(7kg*1.5m)}{6kg}=-1.75m

So the coordinates for this new particle are:

(x_4,y_4)=(-1.917,-1.75)m

An unstable atomic nucleus of mass 1.58 10-26 kg initially at rest disintegrates into three particles. One of the particles, of
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

a The velocity of the third particle is v_3 = (-15.629*10^{6}i -14.45*10^{6}j)\ m/s

b The total kinetic energy increase E = 6.50 *10^{-13} J

Explanation:

To solve this question we are going to be using the concept of conservation of momentum which is mathematically represented as

            m_1v_1 +m_2v_2 +m_3v_3 = 0

From the question

        Mass of  unstable atomic nucleus m_0= 1.58 *10^{-26} kg

        Mass of  x-axis particle m_1 = 8.44* 10^{-27} kg

        Velocity of x-axis particle v_ 1 =  4.00* 10^6 m/s

         Mass of  y-axis particle  m_2 =5.20* 10^{-27} kg

            Velocity of y-axis particle  v_2 = 6.00 *10^6 m/s

 Since the initial mass is known we can obtain the mass of the third particle  

 Using the conservation of mass mathematical expression

                m_3 = m_0 - (m_1 +m_2)

                  m_3 = 1.58 *10^{-26}  - ( 8.44* 10^{-27} + 5.20* 10^-27)

                        = 2.16 *10 ^{-27}kg

Using the mathematical expression above for conservation of momentum

               (8.44 * 10^{-27})( 4.00* 10^6i) + (5.20 *10^{-27})(6.00* 10^6j) +(2.16*0^{-27})v_3 =0

            v_3 = (-15.629*10^{6}i -14.45*10^{6}j)\ m/s

The above is the vector solution now to obtain the value in numeric form we evaluate the magnitude of the vector

         Mag  = \sqrt{(15.629*10^6)^2 +(14.45*10^6)^2}

                = 21.285*10^6 \ m/s

To obtain the total increase in  kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as

         E = \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1 +  \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2 + \frac{1}{2} m_3 v_3

         E =\frac{1}{2} [(5.20*10^{-27})(6.0*0^{6})^2 + (8.44*10^{-27})(4.00*10^6)^2+\\\\(2.16*10^{-27})(21.285*10^6)^2]

              = 6.50 *10^{-13} J

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

   W₃ = 3310.49 J ,  W3 = 3310.49 J

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise in parts, the first with acceleration, the second with constant speed and the third with deceleration. Therefore it is work we calculate it in these three sections

We start with the part with acceleration, the distance traveled is y = 5.90 m and the final speed is v = 2.30 m / s. Let's calculate the acceleration with kinematics

       v2 = v₀² + 2 a₁ y

as they rest part of the rest the ricial speed is zero

        v² = 2 a₁ y

        a₁ = v² / 2y

        a₁ = 2.3² / (2 5.90)

        a₁ = 0.448 m / s²

with this acceleration we can calculate the applied force, using Newton's second law

         F -W = m a₁

         F = m a₁ + m g

         F = m (a₁ + g)

         F = 69 (0.448 + 9.8)

         F = 707.1 N

Work is defined by

         W₁ = F.y = F and cos tea

As the force lifts the man, this and the displacement are parallel, therefore the angle is zero

          W₁ = 707.1 5.9

           W₁ = 4171.89 J  W3 = 3310.49 J

Let's calculate for the second part

the speed is constant, therefore they relate it to zero

           F - W = 0

           F = W

           F = m g

           F = 60 9.8

           F = 588 A

the job is

           W² = 588 5.9

            W2 = 3469.2 J

finally the third part

in this case the initial speed is 2.3 m / s and the final speed is zero

           v² = v₀² + 2 a₂ y

            0 = vo2₀² + 2 a₂ y

            a₂ = -v₀² / 2 y

            a₂ = - 2.3²/2 5.9

            a2 = - 0.448 m / s²

we calculate the force

            F - W = m a₂

            F = m (g + a₂)

            F = 60 (9.8 - 0.448)

            F = 561.1 N

we calculate the work

            W3 = F and

            W3 = 561.1 5.9

          W3 = 3310.49 J

total work

          W_total = W1 + W2 + W3

          W_total = 4171.89 +3469.2 + 3310.49

           w_total = 10951.58 J
