A ray of light contains two colors: red with wavelength of 660 nm and blue with wavelength 470 nm. The ray passes through two na

rrow slits separated by 0.30 mm and the interference pattern is observed on a screen 5.0 m from the slits. What is the distance on the screen between the first-order bright fringes for each wavelength?

Answer:

The distance on the screen between the first-order bright fringes  for each wavelength is 3.17 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 660 nm

Wavelength of blue = 470 nm

Separated d= 0.30 mm

Distance between screen and slits D= 5.0 m

We need to calculate the distance for red wavelength

Using formula for distance

y=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

Where, D = distance between screen and slits

d = separation of slits

Put the value into the formula

y=\dfrac{660\times10^{-9}\times5.0}{0.30\times10^{-3}}

y=11\ mm

For blue wavelength,

Put the value into the formula again

y'=\dfrac{470\times10^{-9}\times5.0}{0.30\times10^{-3}}

y'=7.83\ mm

We need to calculate the distance on the screen between the first-order bright fringes for each wavelength

Using formula for distance

\Delta y=y-y'

\Delta y=11-7.83

\Delta y=3.17\ mm

Hence, The distance on the screen between the first-order bright fringes  for each wavelength is 3.17 mm.

When a current of 0.015 A passes through human body at 240 volts p.d it<br><br>causes​
geniusboy [140]

Explanation:

Given that,

Current, I = 0.015 A

Voltage, V = 240 volts

We need to find the resistance. Using Ohm's law we can find it as follows :

V=IR\\\\R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{240}{0.015}\\\\R=16000\ \Omega

So, When a current of 0.015 A passes through human body at 240 volts p.d it  causes​  16000 ohms of resistance.
