Find the slit separation of a double-slit arrangement that will produce interference fringes 0.018 rad apart on a distant screen
inessss [21]

Answer:

1.64 * 10^(-5) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Angular separation, θ = 0.018 rad

Wavelength, λ = 589 nm = 5.89 * 10^(-7) m

The angular separation when there are 2 slots is given as

θ = λ/2d

where d = separation between slits

d = λ/2θ

d = (589 * 10^(-9))/(2 * 0.018)

d = 1.64 * 10^(-5) m

block of mass 5kgriding on a horizontal frictionlessxy-plane surface is subjected tothree applied forces:→F1= 12√2N[ 45◦]→F2= (8
dsp73

Answer:

(i) See attached image for the drawing

(ii) net force given in component form: (20, 20)N with magnitude: \sqrt{800} \,\,\,N

Explanation:

First try to write all forces in  vector component form:

The force F1 acting at 45 degrees would have multiplication factors of \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} on both axes, to take care of the sine and cosine projections. Therefore, the:

x-component of F1 is    F1_x=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N

y-component of F1 is    F1_y=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N

As far as force F2, it is given already in x and y components, then:

x-component of F2 = 8 N

y-component of F2 = -6 N (negative meaning pointing down the y-axis)

Force F3 has only component (upwards) in the y-direction

x-component of F3 = 0 N

y-component of F3 =14 N

The additions of all these component by component, gives the resultant force (R) acting on the 5 kg mass:

x-component of R = 12 + 8 = 20 N

y-component of R = 12 + 14 - 6 = 20 N

Therefore, the acceleration that the mass receives due to this force is given in component form as:

x-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = 4\,\,\,m/s^2

y-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = 4\,\,\,m/s^2

Now we can calculate the components of the velocity of this mass after 2 seconds of being accelerated by this force, using the formula of acceleration times time:

x-component of the velocity is:     v_x=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s

y-component of the velocity is:     v_y=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s

Which considerations are used to calculate a windchill factor? Select two options.
vlada-n [284]

Wind speed and air temperature are used to calculate a windchill factor.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

Wind-chill factor is the reduction of body temperature due to the passing flow of lower-temperature air.

The air temperature  value is always higher than the wind chill numbers. the heat index will be used if the apparent temperature is higher than the air temperature.So, Wind speed and air temperature are mainly used to calculate a windchill factor.

There are many ways, the surface loses its heat through conduction, evaporation,radiation, and convection.The rate of convection depends on  the difference in temperature between the surface and the fluid surrounding the surface and the velocity of that fluid with respect to the surface. The air around the warm surface will be heated, an insulating  layer of warm air forms against the surface.The layer becomes a boundary between two. As the wind speed is high the surface cools down rapidly.

Name and describe the two layers inside Earth that are undergoing convection and indicate one major consequence of each.
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Mantle and core

Explanation:

The Mantle and Core are the two components within Earth experiencing convection. In several ways the mantle is significant. The one outcome of convective current is the creation of the fresh oceanic lithosphere around OCEANIC RIDGES, formed by mantle upwelling. Core is indeed the planet's innermost layer.
