Answer:

(B) The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves do not require material medium for their propagation, so it will reach the Earth. Mechanical waves require material medium for their propagation, so mechanical waves will not reach Earth.

Therefore, the correct option is B "The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not".

A cup of water is warmed from 21 °C to 85 °C. What is the difference between these two temperatures, in kelvins?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

337k

Explanation:

First, let us find the difference between the given two temperatures.

Difference = 85°C - 21°C

                  = 64°C

<u>And now we have to write the temperature in kelvins.</u>

To convert Celcius to Kelvins you can add 273 to the temperature in Celcius.

<u>Let us find it now.</u>

64°C + 273 = 337k

Therefore,

64°C ⇒ <u>337k</u>

1)Light of wavelength 588.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 55.5 cm from the slit
Talja [164]

Answer:

These are Diffraction Grating Questions.

Q1. To determine the width of the slit in micrometers (μm), we will need to use the expression for distance along the screen from the center maximum to the nth minimum on one side:  

Given as  

y = nDλ/w                                                       Eqn 1

where  

w = width of slit  

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  

Making x the subject of the formula gives,  

w = nDλ/y  

Given  

y = 0.0149 m  

D = 0.555 m  

λ = 588 x 10-9 m  

and n = 3

w = 6.6x10⁻⁵m

Hence, the width of the slit w, in micrometers (μm) = 66μm

Q2. To determine the linear distance Δx, between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen

i.e we have to find the difference between distance along the screen (y₉-y₅) = Δx

Recall Eqn 1,     y = nDλ/w  

given, D = 27cm = 0.27m  

λ = 632 x 10-9 m  

w = 0.1mm = 1.0x10⁻⁴m

For the 9th order, n = 9,

y₉ = 9 x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.015m

Similarly, for n = 5,

y₅ = 5x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.0085m

Recall,  Δx = (y₉-y₅) = 0.015 - 0.0085 = 0.0065m

Hence, the linear distance Δx between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen = 6.5mm
