Specific gravity = Density of an object/Density of water


Density = Mass/Volume


For the current scenario;


Density of halite = mass/(l*w*h) = 58.75/(3.18*3.06*2.79) = 58.75/27.148932 = 2.164 g/cm^3


Density of water ≈ 1000 kg/m^3 = 1 g/cm^3

Specific gravity = Density of an object/Density of water

Density = Mass/Volume

For the current scenario;

Density of halite = mass/(l*w*h) = 58.75/(3.18*3.06*2.79) = 58.75/27.148932 = 2.164 g/cm^3

Density of water ≈ 1000 kg/m^3 = 1 g/cm^3

Therefore,
Specific density of halite = 2.164 g/cm^3 / 1 g/cm^3 = 2.164

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts given by the principles of superposition, specifically those described by Bragg's law in constructive interference.

Mathematically this relationship is given as

dsin\theta = n\lambda

Where,

d = Distance between slits

\lambda = Wavelength

n = Any integer which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum

\theta = sin^{-1} (\frac{n\lambda}{d})

Calculating the value for n, we have

n = 1

\theta_1 = sin^{-1} (\frac{\lambda}{d})\\\theta_1 = sin^{-1} (\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_1 = 23.3\°

n=2

\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (\frac{2\lambda}{d})\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (2\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_2 = 52.28\°

n =3

\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (\frac{2\lambda}{d})\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (3\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_2 = \text{not possible}

Therefore the intensity of light be maximum for angles 23.3° and 52.28°

Why is there more potential for wind energy in the upper himalayan in nepal?​
exis [7]

Answer:

<em><u>The potential area of wind power in the country is about 6074 sq. km with wind power density greater than 300 watt/m2. More than 3,000 MW of electricity could be generated at 5 MW per sq km. The commercially viable wind potential of the country is estimated to be only about 448 MW.</u></em>

The image illustrates that as the distance between two objects increases, the force of gravity ____________. A) decreases. B) in
emmainna [20.7K]
The image is missing (however it's not necessary to solve the problem).

The correct answer is A) decreases, because the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. In fact, the magnitude of the gravitational force between two object of mass M and m, at a distance d one from each other, is
F=G \frac{Mm}{d^2}
where G is the gravitational constant. As can be seen from the formula, if the distance d between the two object increases, the intensity of the force decreases.
