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.

A bird takes off from the tree and after 5 s is flying at a speed of 10 m/s. Calculate
Volgvan

Answer:

10miles/second

Explanation:

Change in velocity of the bird is expressed as the difference between the final velocity and initial velocity of the body.

Change in velocity = Final velocity - initial velocity

Since the bird takes off from the tree, the initial velocity of the bird = 0miles/sec

Final velocity = 10miles/secs

Change in velocity = 10-0

Change in velocity = 10miles/second
