Answer:
<em>The initial speed of the sprinter was 2.2 m/s</em>
Explanation:
<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>
It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.
The following relation applies:
Where a is the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time.
The sprinter speeds up from an unknown initial speed to vf=3 m/s in t=2 seconds with an acceleration of .
To find the initial speed, we solve the equation for vo:
Substituting the values:
The initial speed of the sprinter was 2.2 m/s
In the single-slit experiment, the displacement of the minima of the diffraction pattern on the screen is given by
(1)
where
n is the order of the minimum
y is the displacement of the nth-minimum from the center of the diffraction pattern
is the light's wavelength
D is the distance of the screen from the slit
a is the width of the slit
In our problem,
while the distance between the first and the fifth minima is
(2)
If we use the formula to rewrite
, eq.(2) becomes
Which we can solve to find a, the width of the slit:
