Answer:

Streak shows the true color of the mineral. Non-metallic particles tend to reflect most of the light so they appear lighter in color or almost white. Because streak is a more accurate illustration of the mineral's color, streak is a more reliable property of minerals than color for identification.

Find the velocity and distance travelled of a car that is accelerating at 3 m/s2 for 4 seconds.

marta [7]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 3 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: Δx and v

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (4 s) + ½ (3 m/s²) (4 s)²

Δx = 24 m

v = at + v₀

v = (3 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 12 m/s

jasenka [17]

Answer:

$\lambda= 506.25 nm$

Explanation:

Diffraction is observed when a wave is distorted by an obstacle whose dimensions are comparable to the wavelength. The simplest case corresponds to the Fraunhofer diffraction, in which the obstacle is a long, narrow slit, so we can ignore the effects of extremes.

This is a simple case, in which we can use the Fraunhofer single slit diffraction equation:

$y=\frac{m \lambda D}{a}$

Where:

$y=Displacement\hspace{3}from\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} centerline \hspace{3}for \hspace{3}minimum\hspace{3} intensity =1.35mm\\\lambda=Light\hspace{3} wavelength \\D=Distance\hspace{3}between\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}screen\hspace{3}and\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=2m\\a=width\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=0.750mm\\m=Order\hspace{3}number=1$

Solving for λ:

$\lambda=\frac{y*a}{mD}$

Replacing the data provided by the problem:

$\lambda=\frac{(1.35\times 10^{-3})*(0.750\times 10^{-3})}{1*2} =5.0625\times 10^{-7}m =506.25nm$
