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

10) If the mass 2m, the left mass
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }.

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects of masses m_{1},  m_{2} kept at a distance r is given by the formula

F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }

Here ,m_{1} = 2m

         m_{2} = \frac{m}{2}

         

Thus , F = \frac{-G.2m.\frac{m}{2} }{r^{2} }

          F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }.

<h2>~<u>Solution</u> :-</h2>
  • Here, the <u>moment arm</u> is defined as follows;

The magnitude of two forces, which when acting at right angle produce resultant force of VlOkg and when acting at 60° produce resultant of Vl3 kg. These forces are D. gravitational force of attraction towards the centre of the earth. A sample of metal weighs 219 gms in air, 180 gms in water, 120 gms in an <em>unknown fluid</em>.

How do I know if i’m doing number 2 right?
Ksju [112]

We are given an object that is speeding up on a level ground.

Let's remember that the gravitational energy depends on the change in height, therefore, if the object is not changing its height it means that the gravitational energy remains constant.

The kinetic energy depends on the velocity. If the velocity is increasing this means that the kinetic energy is also increasing.

Now, every change in velocity requires acceleration and acceleration requires a force. The force and the distance that the object moves are equivalent to the work that is transferred to the object and therefore, the change in kinetic energy. This means that the total energy of the system increases as work is transferred to the mass.

We have that the total energy of the system increases in the form of kinetic energy and that the gravitational potential energy remains constant. Therefore, the diagrams should look like pie charts that grow but the area of the segment of the potential energy stays the same. It should look similar to the following.

An office window has dimensions 3.1 m by 2.1 m. As a result of the passage of a storm, the outside air pressure drops to 0.954 a
Virty [35]

Answer:

Net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Dimension of the office window.

Length of the window = 3.1 m

Width of the window = 2.1 m

Area of the window = (3.1\times 2.1) = 6.51\ m^2

Difference in air pressure = Inside pressure - Outside pressure

                                           = (1.0-0.954) atm = 0.046 atm

Conversion of the pressure in its SI unit.

⇒  1 atm = 101325 Pa

⇒ 0.046 atm = 0.046\times 101325 =4660.95 Pa

We have to find the net force.

We know,

⇒ Pressure = Force/Area

⇒ Pressure=\frac{Force }{Area}

⇒ Force =Pressure\times Area

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ Force =4660.95\times 6.51

⇒ Force=30342.78 Newton (N)

So,

The net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The workdone is  W = -177.275J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The initial Volume is  Vi = 0.160 L

      The final volume is  V_f = 0.510L

      The external pressure is  P = 5.00 \ atm

Generally the change in volume is

           \Delta V = V_f - V_i

Substituting values we have

           \Delta V = 0.510 -0.160

                 = 0.350L

Generally workdone is mathematically represented as

           W = -P \Delta V

W is negative because the working is done on the environment by the system which is indicated by volume increase

     Substituting values

                W = - 5* 0.350

                    = -1.75 \ L \ \cdot atm

Now  1 \  L \cdot atm = 101.3J

  Therefore  W = -1.75* 101.3

                          = -177.275J
