melomori [17]

Answer:

the instrument that gives this precision is the micrometer screw

Explanation:

The high precision measurements of small parts are the general vernier and the micrometer screw.

In these two instruments the same principle is used: there is a fixed rule and a mobile one that increases precision.

Let's analyze the absolute error or precision of each instrument

* For the vernier, the precision of the fixed rule is 1 mm and there are 20 divisions (the most common); therefore the precision of the instrument is

            Δx = 1 mm / 20

            Δx = 0.05 mm

* For the micrometer screw, the precision of the fida rule is 0.5 mm and the number of divisions is 50, therefore the precision of the screw is

            Δx = 0.5mm / 50

            Δx = 0.01 mm

consequently the instrument that gives this precision is the micrometer screw

The earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 N/C and directed in toward the c
maria [59]

To solve this problem we will start using the concepts related to the electric field, from there we will find the load exerted on the body. Through this load it will be possible to make a sum of forces in balance to find the load that a human supports. Finally with these values it will be possible to find the repulsive force. We will proceed as follows,

The electric field is

E= \frac{kQ}{R^2}

Here,

k = Coulomb's Constant

Q = Charge

R = Distance (At this case from the center of mass of the earth to the surface)

Rearranging to find the charge,

Q = \frac{ER^2}{k}

Replacing,

Q = frac{(150)(6.38*10^6)}{8.99*10^9}

Q = 6.79*10^5 C

Since the electric field is directed towards the center of earth, the charge is negative.

PART A) Once the load is found we can proceed to apply the balance of Forces, for which the electrostatic force must be equivalent to the weight, this in order to satisfy the balance, therefore

F_w = F_e

mg = \frac{kQq}{R^2}

Replacing,

(62)(9.8) = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(q)(-6.79*10^5)}{(6.38*10^6)^2}

Solving for q,

q = -4.056C

PART B) Finally using the given distance and the values of the found load we can find the repulsive Force, which is

F =\frac{kq^2}{d^2}

F = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(-4.056)^2}{110^2}

F = 1.22*10^7N

PART C) The answer is no. According to the information found, we can conclude that traveling through an electric field is not viable because there is a repulsive force of great magnitude acting on the body.

What is the most common gas in the atmosphere
evablogger [386]
The most common gas in the atmosphere is nitrogen, because it is found in all living things, and as you may know, there are billions of living things here on Earth.

padilas [110]

Answer:

 a)    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m  b)    λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

The diffraction network is described by the expression

      d sin θ= m λ

Where m corresponds to the diffraction order

Let's use trigonometry to find the breast

        tan θ = y / L

The diffraction spectrum is measured at very small angles, therefore

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

We replace

      d y / L = m λ

Let's place in the first order m = 1

Let's look for the separation of the lines (d)

     d = λ  L / y

     d = 501 10⁻⁹ 9.95 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

     d = 332.33 10⁻⁹ m

Now we can look for the wavelength of the other line

     λ  = d y / L

    λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 8.55 10⁻²/15 10⁻²

    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m

Part B

The compound wavelength B

      λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 12.15 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

      λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

Discuss the phase change condition due to reflection of light from a surface. Summarize equations of interference for thin film.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

if this surface has a higher index than in the medium where the light travels, the reflected wave has a phase change of 180º

Explanation:

When a ray of light falls on a surface if this surface has a higher index than in the medium where the light travels, the reflected wave has a phase change of 180º this can be explained by Newton's third law, the light when arriving pushes the atoms of the medium that is more dense, and these atoms respond with a force of equal magnitude, but in the opposite direction.

When the fractional index is lower than that of the medium where the reflacted beam travels, notice a change in phase.

Also, when light penetrates the medium, it modifies its wavelength

              λ = λ₀ / n

We take these two aspects into account, the condition for contributory interference is

            d sin θ = (m + 1/2) λ

for destructive interference we have

            d sin θ = m λ

in general this phenomenon is observed at 90º

           2 d = (m +1/2) λ° / n

          2nd = (m + ½) λ₀
