Answer:
Ben's average speed was twice Debby's average speed.
Explanation:
Ben covered a total distance of 16 miles (10+4+2) and Debby covered 8 miles (3+2+2+1) which is half of what Ben covered. As they both reached the place in the same amount of time it tells us Ben was faster.
Answer:
1.696 nm
Explanation:
For a diffraction grating, dsinθ = mλ where d = number of lines per metre of grating = 5510 lines per cm = 551000 lines per metre and λ = wavelength of light = 467 nm = 467 × 10⁻⁹ m. For a principal maximum, m = 1. So,
dsinθ = mλ = (1)λ = λ
dsinθ = λ
sinθ = λ/d.
Also tanθ = w/D where w = distance of center of screen to principal maximum and D = distance of grating to screen = 1.03 m
From trig ratios 1 + cot²θ = cosec²θ
1 + (1/tan²θ) = 1/(sin²θ)
substituting the values of sinθ and tanθ we have
1 + (D/w)² = (d/λ)²
(D/w)² = (d/λ)² - 1
(w/D)² = 1/[(d/λ)² - 1]
(w/D) = 1/√[(d/λ)² - 1]
w = D/√[(d/λ)² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(551000/467 × 10⁻⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(1179.87 × 10⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/1179.87 × 10⁹ = 0.000848 × 10⁻⁹ = 0.848 × 10⁻¹² m = 0.848 nm.
w is also the distance from the center to the other principal maximum on the other side.
So for both principal maxima to be on the screen, its minimum width must be 2w = 2 × 0.848 nm = 1.696 nm
So, the minimum width of the screen must be 1.696 nm

Answer: First, we determine the circumference of the Mars by the equation below.
C = 2πr
Substituting the known values,
C = 2(π)(3,397 km) = 6794π km
To determine the tangential speed, we divide the circumference calculated above by the time it takes for Mars to complete one rotation and that is,
tangential speed = 6794π km / 24.6 hours = 867.64 km/h
