Answer:

a ) 1.267 radian

b ) 1.084 10⁻³ mm

Explanation:

Distance of screen D = 1.65 m

Width of slit d = ?

Wave length of light   λ  = 687 nm.

Distance of second minimum fro centre y = 2.09 cm

Angle of diffraction = y / D

=  2.09 /1.65  

= 1.267. radian

Angle of diffraction of second minimum

= 2 λ / d

so 2 λ / d = 1.267

d = 2 λ / 1.267 = (2 x 687 ) /1.267 nm

=1084.45 nm = 1.084 x 10⁻³ mm.

What is the electric potential energy of an electron at the negative end of the cable, relative to the positive end of the cable
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Electric potential energy at the negative terminal: 1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J

Explanation:

When a particle with charge q travels across a potential difference \Delta V, then its change in electric potential energy is

\Delta U = q \Delta V

In this problem, we know that:

The particle is an electron, so its charge is

q=-1.60\cdot 10^{-19}C

We also know that the positive terminal is at potential

V_+=0V

While the negative terminal is at potential

V_-=-12 V

Therefore, the potential difference (final minus initial) is

\Delta V = -12-0 = -12 V

So, the change in potential energy of the electron is

\Delta U = (-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-12)=1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J

This means that the electron when it is at the negative terminal has 1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J of energy more than when it is at the positive terminal.

Since the potential at the positive terminal is 0, this means that the electric potential energy of the electron at the negative end is

1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J

A car is rounding a 100-m-radius curve at 25 m/s.What is the minimum possible coefficient of static friction between the tires a
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The minimum possible coefficient of static friction between the tires and the ground is 0.64.

Explanation:

if the μ is the coefficient of static friction and R is radius of the curve and v is the speed of the car then, one thing we know is that along the curve, the frictional force, f will be equal to the centripedal force, Fc and this relation is :

Fc = f

m×(v^2)/(R) = μ×m×g

    (v^2)/(R) = g×μ

               μ = (v^2)/(R×g)

                  =  ((25)^2)/((100)×(9.8))

                  = 0.64

Therefore, the minimum possible coefficient of static friction between the tires and the ground is 0.64.
