A system is a regularly interacting or interdependent group of units forming an integrated whole. Every system is delineated by its spatial and temporal boundaries, surrounded and influenced by its environment, described by its structure and purpose and expressed in its functioning

A single slit of width 0.50 mm is illuminated with light of wavelength 500 nm, and a screen is placed 120 cm in front of the sli
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

a) 2.4 mm

b) 1.2 mm

c) 1.2 mm

Explanation:

To find the widths of the maxima you use the diffraction condition for destructive interference, given by the following formula:

m\lambda=asin\theta

a: width of the slit

λ: wavelength

m: order of the minimum

for little angles you have:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{a}

y: height of the mth minimum

a) the width of the central maximum is 2*y for m=1:

w=2y_1=2\frac{1(500*10^{-9}m)(1.2m)}{0.50*10^{-3}m}=2.4*10^{-3}m=2.4mm

b) the width of first maximum is y2-y1:

w=y_2-y_1=\frac{(500*10^{-9}m)(1.2m)}{0.50*10^{-3}m}[2-1]=1.2mm

c) and for the second maximum:

w=y_3-y_2=\frac{(500*10^{-9}m)(1.2m)}{0.50*10^{-3}m}[3-2]=1.2mm

Oscilloscopes have parallel metal plates inside them to deflect the electron beam. These plates are called the deflecting plates
alexdok [17]

Answer:

1.6 pF

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor in air is given by:

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of each plate

d is the separation between the plates

In this problem we have:

- Separation between the plates: d = 5.00 mm = 0.005 m

- Area of the plates: A = 3.00 cm \cdot 3.00 cm = 9.00 cm^2 = 9\cdot 10^{-4}m^2

Therefore, the capacitance is

C=\frac{(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)(9\cdot 10^{-4} m^2)}{0.005 m}=1.6\cdot 10^{-12} F=1.6 pF

Are materials that dissolve in water hydrophobic or hydrophilic
stira [4]

Answer:

hydrophilic

Explanation:

hydrophobic means it hates water so a hydrophobic material would separate from the water and just sit there (an example of this is oil)

A copper cylinder is initially at 21.1 ∘C . At what temperature will its volume be 0.163 % larger than it is at 21.1 ∘C?
fomenos

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the final volume of a body after undergoing a thermal expansion. To determine the temperature, we will use the given relationship as well as the theoretical value of the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion of copper. This is, for example to the initial volume defined as V_1, the relation with the final volume as

V_2 = V_1 +0.163\% V_1

V_2 = V_1 +0.00163V_1

V_2 = 1.00163V_1

Initial temperature = 21.1\°C

Let T be the temperature after expanding by the formula of volume expansion

we have,

V_2 = V_1 (1+\gamma \Delta t)

Where \gamma is the volume coefficient of copper 5.1*10^{-5}/C

1.00163V_1 = V_1(1+\gamma(T-21.1\°))

1.00163 = 1+5.1*10^{-5}(T-21.1\°)

0.00163 = 0.000051T-0.0010761

T = 53.0608\°C

Therefore the temperature is 53.06°C
