Light of wavelength 559 nm is used to illuminate normally two glass plates 22.1 cm in length that touch at one end and are separ
umka21 [38]

Answer:

M = 222 fringes

Explanation:

given

λ = 559 n m = 559 × 10⁻⁹ m

radius = 0.026 mm = 0.026 ×10⁻³ m

length of the glass plate = 22.1 ×10⁻² m

using relation

2t=(m+\dfrac{1}{2})\lambda\ \ (m=0,1,2,3...)\\where\ 0\leq t\leq 2r\\m = \dfrac{2t}{\lambda}-\dfrac{1}{2}

m_{max} = \dfrac{2\times 2r}{\lambda}-\dfrac{1}{2}\\m_{max} = \dfrac{2\times 2\times 0.026\times 10^{-3}}{559\times 10^{-9}}-\dfrac{1}{2}

 = 221.79  

 = 221 (approx.)

hence no of bright fringe

M = m + 1

   = 221 +1

M = 222 fringes

A 10 m long uniform beam weighing 100 N is supported by two ropes at the ends. If a 400 N person sits at 2.0 m from one end of t
Naddik [55]

Answer:

T1 = 130N, T2 = 370N

Explanation:

In order for the system to be at rest, the sum of all forces must be zero and the torque around a point on the beam must be zero.

1. forces:

Let tension in rope 1 be T1 and in rope 2 be T2:

ma = T1 + T2 - 100N - 400N = 0

(1) T1 + T2 = 500N

2. torque around the center point of the beam:

τ = r x F = 5*T1 + 3*400N - 5*T2 = 0

(2) T1 - T2 = -240N

Solving both equations:

T1 = 130N

T2 = 370N

You are a crane operator using a wrecking ball to demolish an old building. You can choose to use a 100-kg ball or a 150-kg ball
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The two balls, although of different masses, could be made to have the same demolishing force by setting the velocity of the 100 kg ball to 1.5 times the velocity of the 150 kg ball.

That is if V₁ is the velocity of the 150 kg ball and  V₂ is the velocity of the 100 kg ball then V₂  = 1.5×V₁ for the demolishing effect of the two balls to be equal.

Explanation:

To answer the we are required to explain the meaning of momentum and state its properties

Momentum is a physical property of an object in motion. It indicates the amount of motion inherent in the object.  An object in motion is said to have momentum

The types of momentum possessed by an object can be classified into either

1, Linear momentum or

2. Angular momentum

An object moving with a velocity, v has linear momentum while a spinning object has an angular momentum

The momentum is given by the formula

P = m × V

Where m = mass and

V = velocity

Newtons second law of motion states that, the force acting on an object is equivalent to the rate of change of momentum produced and acting in the direction of the force

Properties of momentum

From the above statements it means that the two balls can be made equivalent by having the appropriate amount of speed. That iis the two balls can have the same momentum thus for equal momentum effect, we have

150 kg × V₁ = 100 kg × V₂

or V₂ = 1.5×V₁

The energy E of the electron in a hydrogen atom can be calculated from the Bohr formula: =E−Ryn2 In this equation Ry stands for
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

  λ = 162 10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom gives energy by the equation

         E_{n} = - k²e² / 2m (1 / n²)

Where k is the Coulomb constant, e and m the charge and mass of the electron respectively and n is an integer

The Planck equation

           E = h f

The speed of light is

          c = λ f

          E = h c /λ

For a transition between two states we have

          E_{n} - E_{m} = - k²e² / 2m (1 / n_{f}² -1 / n_{i}²)

           h c / λ = -k² e² / 2m (1 / n_{f}² - 1/ n_{i}²)

           1 / λ = (- k² e² / 2m h c) (1 / n_{f}² - 1/n_{i}²)

The Rydberg constant with a value of 1,097 107 m-1 is the result of the constant in parentheses

Let's calculate the emission of the transition

            1 /λ = 1.097 10⁷ (1/10² - 1/8²)

            1 / λ = 1.097 10⁷ (0.01 - 0.015625)

            1 /λ = 0.006170625 10⁷

            λ = 162 10⁻⁷ m
