You want to photograph a circular diffraction pattern whose central maximum has a diameter of 1.0 cm. You have a helium-neon las

topjm [15]

Answer:

0.776 m far Pinhole should be placed before the viewing screen

Explanation:

For circular aperture of diameter D will have a bright central maximum of diameter, width is given by

$w=\frac{2.44 \lambda L}{D}$

where $\lambda$ is wavelength of helium neon laser = 633 nm, D=10.cm, w=0.12 mm

Pinhole should be placed before the viewing screen is

$L=\frac{wD}{2.44\lambda}\\L=\frac{0.12\times 10^{-3}\times 0 .01}{2.44\times 633 \times 10^{-9}}\\L=0.776 m$

Light travels at a speed of close to 3 x 10^5 km/s in vacuum. Given that it takes light 8 min and 19 s to travel the distance fr

never [62]

Answer:

1497×10⁵ km

Explanation:

Speed of light in vacuum = 3×10⁵ km/s

Time taken by the light of the Sun to reach the Earth = 8 min and 19 s

Converting to seconds we get

8×60+19 = 499 seconds

Distance = Speed × Time

$\text{Distance}=3\times 10^5\times 499\\\Rightarrow \text{Distance}=1497\times 10^5\ km$

1 AU = 1497×10⁵ km

The Sun is 1497×10⁵ km from Earth

What is potential energy

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The potential energy is the energy possessed by the body by the position relative to other things. It is also known as stored energy

The formula is: P.E = mgh

P.E = mass * gravitational energy * height

A 34.1-mL sample of benzene at 20.8°C was cooled to its melting point, 5.5 °C, and then frozen at 5.5 °C. Calculate the quantity

posledela

Answer:

4541.8 J

Explanation:

First we find the mass of benzene available

mass = density x volume

= 0.867 x 34.1

= 29.5647 g

Then we find the amount of heat transferred by two processes:

heat tranferred = heat lost during temp drop + heat lost during freezing

= mcΔT + mL

= 29.5647 x 1.74 x (20.8 - 5.5) + 29.5647 x 127

= 4541.7883434 J

= 4541.8 J
