White light is spread out into its spectral components by a diffraction grating. If the grating has 1,970 grooves per centimeter
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer;

7.238°

Explanation

From question we know that the grating has 1,970 grooves per centimeter, we can convert to from (cm) to (nm) for unit consistency

The slit separation is expressed below

d=1cm/1970

d=0.0005076

=5076nm

Then the angle (in degrees) that the red light of wavelength 640 nm appear in first order can be calculated using expression below

Sin(x)= mλ/d

Where λ= wavelength=640 nm

d=slit separation

Sin(x)= mλ/d

Sin(x)=(1×640)/5076

=0.126

sin-1(0.126)

X= 7.238°

Therefore,the angle (in degrees) that the red light of wavelength 640 nm appear in first order is 7.238°

1. How much heat energy ( Q ) is required to heat 2.0 kg of copper from 30.0 oC to 80.0 oC?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Heat capacity, Q = 38500 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 2 kg

Initial temperature, T1 = 30°C

Final temperature, T2 = 80°C

Specific heat capacity of copper = 385 J/Kg°C

To find the quantity of heat required;

Mathematically, heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

M represents the mass of an object.

C represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 80 - 30

dt = 50°C

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

Q = 2 * 385*50

Heat capacity, Q = 38500 Joules

This photograph shows a person using a type of wave technology. Which need or want does this technology meet?
cricket20 [7]

The photography that shows a person using a type of wave technology, allows people to see very small objects clearly. D as it is a microscope

<h3>Why are wave technologies important?</h3>

Wave technologies are important because;

  • They create waves that are more perfect than humans can provide by themselves.
  • Certain inventions use waves to enhance human senses like hearing, sight and touch.

Thus, the photography that shows a person using a type of wave technology, allows people to see very small objects clearly. D as it is a microscope.

Heat Q flows spontaneously from a reservoir at 404 K into a reservoir at 298 K. Because of the spontaneous flow, 2740 J of energ
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The heat is 10458 J and 15480 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature T₁ = 404 K

Temperature T₂ = 298 K

Work done = 2740 J

If the temperature T₁ =298 k

Temperature T₂ = 245 K

We need to calculate the heat

Using efficiency formula

\eta=\dfrac{W}{Q}...(I)

We need to calculate the efficiency

Using formula of efficiency

\eta=1-\dfrac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}

\eta=1-\dfrac{298}{404}

\eta=0.262

Put the value of efficiency in equation (I)

0.262=\dfrac{2740}{Q}

Q=\dfrac{2740}{0.262}

Q=10458\ J

Again, we need to calculate the efficiency

\eta=1-\dfrac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}

\eta=1-\dfrac{245}{298}

\eta=0.177

We need to calculate the heat

Using equation (I)

Q=\dfrac{2740}{0.177}

Q=15480\ J

Hence, The heat is 10458 J and 15480 J.
