Perhaps to confuse a predator, some tropical gyrinid beetles(whirligig beetles) are colored by optical interference that is duet

o scales whose alignment forms a diffraction grating (whichscatters light instead of transmitting it). When the incident lightrays are perpendicular to the grating, the angle between thefirst-order maxima (on opposite sides of the zeroth-order maximum)is about 30° in light with a wavelength of 589 nm. What is thegrating spacing of the beetle?

Answer:

The grating spacing of the beetle is 1.078*10^{-6}m

Explanation:

The concept to solve this problem is relate to interference effect given in the Young's Slits. Here was demonstrated that the length of the side labelled \lambda is known as the path difference. The equation is given by,

n\lambda = dsin\theta

Where,

\lambda= wavelenght of light

N = a positive integer: 1,2,3...

\theta = Angle from the center of the wall to the dark spot

d= width of the slit

Replacing our values we have that for n=1,

dsin\theta = n\lambda

dsin(30)=(1)(539*10^{-9})

d=1.078*10^{-6}m

Therefore the grating spacing of the beetle is 1.078*10^{-6}m

An open pipe of length 0.39 m vibrates in the third harmonic with a frequency of 1400 Hz what is the distance from the center of
Svetach [21]

Length of the pipe = 0.39 m

Number of harmonics = 3

Now there are 3 loops so here we can say

3\times \frac{\lambda}{2} = 0.39

\lambda = 0.26 m

now here at the center of the pipe it will form Node

we need to find the distance of nearest antinode

So distance between node and its nearest antinode will be

d = \frac{\lambda}{4}

d = \frac{0.26}{4} = 0.065 m = 6.5 cm

So the distance will be 6.5 cm

During a compression at a constant pressure of 290 Pa, the volume of an ideal gas decreases from 0.62 m3 to 0.21 m3. The initial
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a) -41.1 Joule

b) 108.38 Kelvin

Explanation:

Pressure = P = 290 Pa

Initial volume of gas = V₁ = 0.62 m³

Final volume of gas = V₂ = 0.21 m³

Initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 320 K

Heat loss = Q = -160 J

Work done = PΔV

⇒Work done = 290×(0.21-0.62)

⇒Work done = -118.9 J

a) Change in internal energy = Heat - Work

ΔU = -160 -(-118.9)

⇒ΔU = -41.1 J

∴ Change in internal energy is -41.1 J

b) V₁/V₂ = T₁/T₂

⇒T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁

⇒T₂ = 320×0.21/0.62

⇒T₂ = 108.38 K

∴ Final temperature of the gas is 108.38 Kelvin
