While on a camping trip, a man would like to carry water from the lake to his campsite. He fills two, non‑identical buckets with

water and attaches them to a 1.43 m long rod. Since the buckets are not identical, he finds that the rod balances about a point located at a 5.59 cm from its midpoint. Which bucket holds more water?

Answer:

The bucket  located in the direction opposite of displacement of the rod for balancing will be heavier.

Explanation:

Moment of a force is directly proportional to it's distance from the point about which rotation takes place. In the given case the man increases the lever arm(distance from point of rotation of the force) to balance the moment of the lighter bucket. Thus in the direction of the increase the lighter bucket will be placed.

tatiyna

Answer:

a. λ = 647.2 nm

b. I₀  9.36 x 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Given:

β = 56.0 rad , θ = 3.09 ° , γ = 0.170 mm = 0.170 x 10⁻³ m

a.

The wavelength of the radiation can be find using

β = 2 π / γ * sin θ

λ = [ 2π * γ * sin θ ] / β

λ = [ 2π * 0.107 x 10⁻³m * sin (3.09°) ] / 56.0 rad

λ = 647.14 x 10⁻⁹ m  ⇒  λ = 647.2 nm

b.

The intensity of the central maximum I₀

I = I₀ (4 / β² ) * sin ( β / 2)²

I = I₀ (4 / 56.0²) * [ sin (56.0 /2) ]²

I = I₀  9.36 x 10⁻⁵
