Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Flash flood refers to the sudden flood that occurs in a particular area due to the heavy and excessive amount of rainfall, often accompanied by thunderstorms within a few hours. It releases a huge amount of water due to the failure of natural levee as well dam. They are very devastating. During flash flood, the water exerts a massive force which can make vehicles float over water. The <u>six inches of water</u> that flows over an area has the capacity to lift the tyres of small vehicles and carry hem further away.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

In a certain two slit diffraction experiment, two slits 0.02mm wide are spaced0.2mm between centers.(a) How many fringes appear
Kamila [148]

Answer:

a)   m = 10  and    b)  λ  = 3.119 10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

In the diffraction experiments the maximums appear due to the interference phenomenon modulated by the envelope of the diffraction phenomenon, for which to find the number of lines within the maximum diffraction center we must relate the equations of the two phenomena.

Interference equation      d sin θ = m λ

Diffraction equation         a sin θ = n λ

Where d is the width between slits (d = 0.2 mm), a is the width of each slit (a = 0.02 mm). θ is the angle, λ the wavelength, m and n  are an integer.

Let's find the relationship of these two equations

    d sin θ / a sin θ = m Lam / n Lam

The first maximum diffraction (envelope) occurs for n = 1, let's simplify

    d / a = m

Let's calculate

    m = 0.2 / 0.02

    m = 10

This means that 10 interference lines appear within the first maximum diffraction.

b) let's use the interference equation, remember that the angles must be given in radians

    θ = 0.17 ° (π rad / 180 °) = 2.97 10⁻³ rad

    d sin  θ = m λ

    λ = d sin θ / m

    λ = 0.2 10⁻³ sin (2.97 10⁻³) / 2

    λ  = 3.119 10⁻⁷ m

A car of mass 600 Kg is moving at 15m/s. Calculate its momentum.
mr_godi [17]
Mass=600kg
Velocity =15m/s
Momentum(p)=?
Now,
P=mass x velocity
=600x15
=9000kgm/s
