A diffraction grating contains 15,000 lines/inch. We pass a laser beam through the grating. The wavelength of the laser is 633 n

m. On a screen 2.66m away, we observe spots of light. (a) How far (m) from the central maximum (m = 0) is the first-order maximum (m = 1) observed? (b) How far (m) from the central maximum (m = 0) is the second-order maximum (m = 2) observed? DO NOT calculate this using the

Answer:

Recall the Diffraction grating formula for constructive interference of a light

y = nDλ/w                                      Eqn 1

Where;

w = width of slit = 1/15000in =6.67x10⁻⁵in =   6.67x10⁻⁵ x 0.0254m = 1.69x10⁻⁶m

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  = 1

Given  

y1 = ? from 1st order max to the central  

D = 2.66 m  

λ = 633 x 10-9 m  

and n = 1  

y₁ = 0.994m  

Distance (m) from the central maximum (n = 0) is the first-order maximum (n = 1)                =         0.994m

Q b. How far (m) from the central maximum (m = 0) is the second-order maximum (m = 2) observed?

w = width of slit = 1/15000in =6.67x10⁻⁵in =   6.67x10⁻⁵ x 0.0254m = 1.69x10⁻⁶m

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  = 1

Given  

y1 = ? from 1st order max to the central  

D = 2.66 m  

λ = 633 x 10⁻⁹ m  

and n =  2

y₂ = 0.994m  

Distance (m) from the central maximum (n = 0) is the first-order maximum (n = 2) =1.99m

Consider two particles of equal masses attached to each other by a light straight spring write the lagrangian center of mass
dolphi86 [110]
<span>The lagrangian center of mass between two particles of equal mass can be calculated using the following equation: L=12MV2â’Uext.+Nâ‘i=112mi~v2iâ’Uint. M=â‘mi is the total mass, V is the speed of the center of mass, Uext.=â‘Uext.,i, and ~vi is the speed of the ith particle relative to the center of mass.</span>

Can someone please help me with this
pentagon [3]
The key principle is that crank length, just like frame size, should be proportional to the rider height and then modified to what fits the individual. There are 4 charts, two for the upright position and two for the aero position, depending upon how you race.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

1) a substance made by mixing other substances together.

2) diverse in character or content.

3) of the same kind; alike.

4) a means of solving a problem or dealing with a difficult situation.

5) a homogeneous noncrystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance. Colloids include gels, sols, and emulsions; the particles do not settle, and cannot be separated out by ordinary filtering or centrifuging like those in a suspension.

A 9-μC positive point charge is located at the origin and a 6 μC positive point charge is located at x = 0.00 m, y = 1.0 m. Find
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge q_{1}=9\times10^{-6}\ C at origin

Second charge q_{2}=6\times10^{-6}\ C

Second charge at point P = (0,1)

We assume that,

The net electric field between the charges is zero at mid point.

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

0=\dfrac{k\times9\times10^{-6}}{d^2}+\dfrac{k\times6\times10^{-6}}{(1-d)^2}

\dfrac{(1-d)}{d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{6}{9}}

\dfrac{1}{d}=\dfrac{\sqrt{6}}{3}+1

\dfrac{1}{d}=1.82

d=\dfrac{1}{1.82}

d=0.55\ m

Hence, The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).
