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.

The small metal cylinder has a mass of 0.20 kgkg, the coefficient of static friction between the cylinder and the turntable is 0
deff fn [24]

Answer:

velocity of the metal cylinder = 0.343 m/s

Explanation:

Force putting the metal cylinder is given by

F = mv²/r

But this force will balance the frictional force between the metal cylinder and the turntable

The frictional force is given by

μN = μ × mg = 0.08 × 0.2 × 9.81 = 0.15696 N

r = 0.15 m, m = 0.2 kg,

F = mv²/r = 0.2 v²/(0.15) = 1.3333 v²

1.3333 v² = 0.15696

v² = 0.117

v = 0.343 m/s

What is the distance between a 900 kg compact car and a 1600 kg pickup truck if the gravitational force between them is about 0.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The distance is 0.96m

Explanation:

Given

m1= 900kg

m2= 1600kg

Force F= 0.0001nN

G=6.67430*10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Required

The distance r

Step two:

the formula for the force is given as

F = Gm1m2/r2

make r subject of the formula

r= \sqrt{\frac{Gm1m2}{F} }

r= \sqrt{\frac{6.67430*10^-11*900*1600}{0.0001} }\\\\r= 0.00009610992/0.0001`}\\\\r= 0.96m

Answer:

The distance is 0.96m

Explanation:

Given

m1= 900kg

m2= 1600kg

Force F= 0.0001nN

G=6.67430*10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Required:

The distance r

numerical question : what is the required heat to raise the temperature of 2 kg parrafin by 10 Celsius if 44000 joules is requir
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The heat energy required is, E = 2200 J

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of paraffin, m = 2 Kg

The energy required to raise the temperature of the paraffin by 200° C = 44000 J

Then the heat energy required to raise the temperature of the paraffin by 10° C is given by,

Since 44000 J raises temperature by 200° C, then

                              E = 44000 J / 20

                                 = 2200 J

Hence, the energy required to raise the temperature of the paraffin by 10° C is, E = 2200 J

"Without forces there can be no movement"- Do you agree with this statement? Why or Why not?​
myrzilka [38]

Answer: Yes.

Explanation: It is clearly stated in Newton’s first law of physics that an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on.
