Light of wavelength 520 nm is used to illuminate normally two glass plates 21.1 cm in length that touch at one end and are separ

ated at the other by a wire of radius 0.028 mm. How many bright fringes appear along the total length of the plates.

Answer:

The number is  Z = 216 \ fringes

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The wavelength is  \lambda  =  520 \ nm =  520 *10^{-9} \ m

       The length of the glass plates is y  = 21.1cm = 0.211 \ m

      The distance between the plates (radius of wire ) =  d =  0.028 mm  =  2.8 *10^{-5} \  m

   Generally the condition for constructive  interference in a film is mathematically represented as

            2 *  t  = [m +  \frac{1}{2}  ]\lambda

Where  t is the thickness of the separation between the glass i.e  

    t  = 0 at the edge where the glasses are touching each other and  

     t =  2d at the edge where the glasses are separated by the wire  

   m is the order of the fringe it starts from  0, 1 , 2 ...

So  

       2 *  2 * d   = [m +  \frac{1}{2}  ] 520 *10^{-9}

=>   2 *  2 *   (2.8 *10^{-5}) = [m +  \frac{1}{2}  ] 520 *10^{-9}

=>    

       m = 215

given that we start counting m from zero

   it means that the number of  bright fringes that would appear is

         Z =  m + 1

=>    Z =  215 +1

=>     Z = 216 \ fringes

A 0.311 kg tennis racket moving 30.3 m/s east makes an elastic collision with a 0.0570 kg ball moving 19.2 m/s west. Find the ve
Troyanec [42]

The velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 0.311kg

u1 = 30.3m/s

m2 = 0.057kg

u2 = 19.2m/s

Since m2 is moving in opposite direction, u2 = -19.2m/s

Velocity of m1 after collision  = ?

Let the velocity of m1 after collision be v

After collision the momentum is conserved.

Therefore,

m1u1 - m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

v1 = (\frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2})u1 + (\frac{2m2}{m1+m2})u2

v1 = (\frac{0.311-0.057}{0.311+0.057})30.3 + (\frac{2 X 0.057}{0.311 + 0.057}) X-19.2\\\\v1 = (\frac{0.254}{0.368} )30.3 + (\frac{0.114}{0.368}) X -19.2\\ \\v1 = 20.91 - 5.95\\\\v1 = 14.96

Therefore, the velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s
