Answer:

Block A

Explanation:

Block A will float higher in the water compared to the second Block.

The density of water is 1g/cm³.

According to the principle of floatation "an object that floats in a liquid will displace equal amount of fluid to the weight of the object".

A body will become more submerged in water if it has more density because density is the mass per volume of  body.

An object with a higher density than another will sink in the liquid of the one with lesser density.

  • Object A has lesser density and will float higher up and displace very little water.
  • Object B has higher density and will be more submerged.

The conservation of momentum is most closely related to
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

<h2>B) Newton's 2nd law</h2>

Explanation:

<h2>From; force= mass × acceleration </h2><h2> f= m×a </h2><h2>where a(acceleration)= velocity/time</h2><h3> force = mv/t</h3><h3>But momentum(p) = Mass × velocity </h3><h2>hence force =p/t </h2><h3>that is Momentum = force × time ( Newton's 2nd law)</h3>

Light of wavelength 580 nm is incident on a slit of width 0.30 mm. An observing screen is placed 2.0 m past the slit. Find the d
uysha [10]

Answer:

Y = 3.87 x 10⁻³ m = 3.87 mm

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by using Young's double-slit experiment formula:

Y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}

where,

Y = fringe spacing = ?

L = slit to screen distance = 2 m

λ = wavelength of light = 580 nm = 5.8 x 10⁻⁷ m

d = slit width = 0.3 mm = 3 x 10⁻⁴ m

Therefore,

Y = \frac{(5.8\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{3\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>Y = 3.87 x 10⁻³ m = 3.87 mm</u>
