Answer:

Option B - The fringe spacing will increase

Explanation:

We are given;

Wavelength; λ = 532nm

slit separation; d = 20um

For double-slit experiment, the fringe width is given by the expression;

β = λD/d

Where;

β is the fringe width

λ is the wavelength

D is the distance between the screen and the slit

d is the slit separation

Now, when immersed in water, the slit separation distance will decrease.

Now, from the fringe width equation, when "d" decreases, it means that we will have a bigger value of fringe width.

Thus, as slit separation decreases, the fringe width increases.

As the wavelength increases, the frequency (2 points) decreases and energy decreases. increases and energy increases. decreases
frozen [14]
Bohr's equation for the change in energy is
\Delta E= \frac{hc}{\lambda}
where
h = Planck's constant
c == the velocity of light
λ = wavelength.

The velocity is related to wavelength and frequency, f, by
c = fλ

Let us examine the given answers on the basis of the given equations.

a. As λ increases, f decreases and ΔE decreases.
     TRUE

b. As λ increases, f increases and ΔE increases.
    FALSE

c. As λ increases, f increases and ΔE decreases.
    FALSE

Answer: 
As the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and energy decreases.

A proton travels with a speed of 5.02×10⁶ m/s in a direction that makes an angle of 60.0° with the direction of a magnetic ficld
Triss [41]

The magnitude of the magnetic force on the proton is 1.25× 10—¹³ N.

Speed of the proton = 5.02 × 10 ⁶ m /a

Angel of between the velocity and the magnetic force = 60 °

The magnitude of magnetic field B = 0.180 T

The magnitude of the magnetic force on the proton is,

F = q(v \times B)

F = qvB \: sin \:  θ

F = 1.6 \times 10 ^{ - 19}  \times 5.02 \times 10 ^{6}  \times 0.180 \times  \: sin \: 60°

= 1.25 \times 10 ^{ - 13}  \: N

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic force on the proton is 1.25× 10—¹³ N.

Identify the forces acting on the cars and explain why the cars do not slide down the hill
Dvinal [7]
<span>Examples of outside forces acting on a car is gravity, wind, and other cars. Cars do not slide down hills because their weight, combined with the friction of their tires against the road, hold them in place. </span>
