Seconds squared is the time unit of acceleration. It represents the change in distance units per second per second. For example, 3 m/sec² means a distance covering 3 meters in the first second, then 9 meters in the 2nd second, and 37 meters in the third second. (3^1, 3^2, 3^3).
Acceleration is part of Newton's 2nd law: force = mass x acceleration. Units of work: joule = kg·m²/s², and power: watts = kg·m²/s³ all contain accelerations.
Answer:
y₀ = 10.625 m
Explanation:
For this exercise we will use the kinematic relations, where the upward direction is positive.
y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²
in the exercise they indicate the initial velocity v₀ = 8 m / s.
when the rock reaches the ground its height is zero
0 = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²
y₀i = -v₀ t + ½ g t²
let's calculate
y₀ = - 8 2.5 + ½ 9.8 2.5²
y₀ = 10.625 m
Answer:
<em>The 6000 lines per cm grating, will produces the greater dispersion .</em>
Explanation:
A diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic (usually one that has ridges or rulings on their surface rather than dark lines) structure that splits and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions.
The directions of the light beam produced from a diffraction grating depend on the spacing of the grating, and also on the wavelength of the light.
For a plane diffraction grating, the angular positions of principle maxima is given by
(a + b) sin ∅n = nλ
where
a+b is the distance between two consecutive slits
n is the order of principal maxima
λ is the wavelength of the light
From the equation, we can see that without sin ∅ exceeding 1, increasing the number of lines per cm will lead to a decrease between the spacing between consecutive slits.
In this case, light of the same wavelength is used. If λ and n is held constant, then we'll see that reducing the distance between two consecutive slits (a + b) will lead to an increase in the angle of dispersion sin ∅. So long as the limit of sin ∅ not greater that one is maintained.
