Which of the following situations could cause light to diffract?
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

B. Light passes through a small opening

Explanation:

Diffraction is one of the properties of wave defined as the bending of wave around corners. It occurs mostly when waves passes through a tiny opening or slit. The type of waveform generated by the wave depends on the type of opening or slit that the medium passes through. The opening can be tiny or large.

Based on the definition, it can be inferred that the situation that causes light waves to diffract is when the light passes through a small opening. For example, the light of a torch passing through a tiny door hole is diffraction.

A laser source has a bandwidth of 30GHz (a) Calculate the coherence length of the source b) What is the time separation of secti
abruzzese [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Bandwidth of a laser source, f=30\ GHz=30\times 10^9\ Hz

(b) Let t is the time separation of sections of sections of the light wave that can still interfere. The time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{30\times 10^9}

T=3.33\times 10^{-11}\ s

(a) Let h is the coherence length of the source. It is given by :

l=c\times T

c is the speed of light

l=3\times 10^8\times 3.33\times 10^{-11}

l = 0.0099 m

Hence, this is the required solution.

An advertisement claims that a particular automobile can "stop on a dime". What net force would actually be necessary to stop an
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

F = 4399 KN

Explanation:

given,

mass of automobile = 890 kg

initial speed = 48 km/h

                     = 48 × 0.278 = 13.34 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a × s

0 = 13.34² - 2 a ×0.018

a = \dfrac{13.34^2}{0.036}

a = 4943.21 m/s²

F   = m × a

F   = 890 × 4943.21

F   =  4399456.9 N

F = 4399 KN

hence, the  Net force is F = 4399 KN
