Answer:

As in explanation.

Explanation:

A) Centre of Curvature: This is defined as the point in the center of the sphere from which the mirror was sliced. It is represented by the letter "C"

B) Vertex: It is defined as the point on the mirror's surface where the principal axis meets the mirror. It is represented by the letter A.

C) Focal Point: This is defined as the Midway point between the vertex and the center of curvature. It is represented by the letter "F"

D) Radius of Curvature: This is defined as the distance from the vertex to the center of curvature. It is represented by the letter "R"

E) Focal Length: This is defined as the distance from the mirror to the focal point. It's represented by the letter "f"

A single slit is illuminated by light of wavelengths λa and λb, chosen so that the first diffraction minimum of the λa component
agasfer [191]

Answer:

λ_A = 700 nm ,   m_B = m_a 2

Explanation:

The expression that describes the diffraction phenomenon is

         a sin θ = m λ

where a is the width of the slit, lam the wavelength and m an integer that writes the order of diffraction

a) They tell us that now lal_ A m = 1

         a sin θ = λ_A

coincidentally_be m = 2

          a sin  θ = m λ_b

as the two match we can match

         λ _A = 2 λ _B

         λ_A = 2 350 nm

         λ_A = 700 nm

b)

For lam_B

       a sin  λ_A  = m_B  λ_B

For lam_A

        a sin θ_A = m_ λ_ A

to match they must have the same angle, so we can equal

           m_B  λ_B = m_A  λ_A

           m_B = m_A  λ_A / λ_B

           m_b = m_a 700/350

           m_B = m_a 2

Water is being split to form two new substances hydrogen and oxygen is this a change of state?
Stella [2.4K]

I'd say you haven't given us enough information to answer that.

When we talk about "change of state", we're talking about changes
between solid, liquid, and gas.

Tell us what the state of the water is, and what the states of the
hydrogen and oxygen are after the split, and we'll be able to
summarize the changes of state that may be taking place.

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

What we are basically looking for here is how long it takes the first stone to hit the water. We have everything we need to figure that out. We will use the equation

Δx = . Filling in, we will solve for t, the time is takes the first stone to hit the water (which is the same for both since they both hit the water at the same time):

which is a quadratic that we will have to factor. Get it into standard form, setting it equal to 0:

and factor to get that

t = 3.2 s and t = -2.8 s

Since time can't ever be negative, it takes 3.2 s for the stones to hit the water.
