In a double-slit experiment, the slits are illuminated by a monochromatic, coherent light source having a wavelength of 609 nm.

An interference pattern is observed on the screen. The distance between the screen and the double-slit is 1.69 m and the distance between the two slits is 0.118 mm. A light wave propogates from each slit to the screen. What is the path length difference between the distance traveled by the waves for the sixth-order maximum (bright fringe) on the screen?

Answer:

$\Delta x = 3.65 \mu m$

Explanation:

As we know that the sixth order maximum will have path difference given as

$\Delta x = N\lambda$

here we know that

N = order of maximum

$\lambda = 609 nm$

now we have

$N = 6$

so we know that

$\Delta x = 6(609 nm)$

$\Delta x = 3.65 \mu m$

Two cars A and B are 100m apart moving towards each other with

maxonik [38]

Let car A's starting position be the origin, so that its position at time <em>t</em> is

A: <em>x</em> = (40 m/s) <em>t</em>

and car B has position at time <em>t</em> of

B: <em>x</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

<em />

They meet when their positions are equal:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m

<em>t</em> = (100 m) / (100 m/s) = 1 s

so the cars meet 1 second after they start moving.

They are 100 m apart when the difference in their positions is equal to 100 m:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> - (100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>) = 100 m

(subtract car B's position from car A's position because we take car A's direction to be positive)

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 200 m

<em>t</em> = (200 m) / (100 m/s) = 2 s

so the cars are 100 m apart after 2 seconds.

Answer:

The tension on the shank is $T =8391.6 N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The strain on the strain on the head is $\Delta l = 0.1 mm/mm = \frac{0.1}{1000} = 0.1 *10^{-3} m/m$

The contact area is $A = 2.8 mm^2 = 2.8* (\frac{1}{1000} )^2 = 2.8*10^{-6} m^2$

Looking at the first diagram

At 600 MPa of stress

The strain is $0.3mm/mm$

At 450 MPa of stress

The strain is $0.0015 mm/mm$

To find the stress at $\Delta l$ we use the interpolation method

$\frac{\sigma_{\Delta l} - \sigma_{0.0015} }{ \sigma _ {0.3} - \sigma_{0.0015} } = \frac{e_{\Delta l } - e_{0.0015}}{e_{0.3} - e_{ 0.0015}}$

Substituting values

$\frac{\sigma _{\Delta l} - 450}{600 - 450} = \frac{0.1 -0.0015}{0.3 - 0.0015}$

$\sigma _{\Delta l} -450 = 49.50$

$\sigma _{\Delta l} = 499.50 MPa$

Generally the force on each head is mathematically represented as

$F = \sigma_{\Delta l} * A$

Substituting values

$F = 499.50*10^{6} * 2.8*10^{-6}$

$=1398.6N$

Now the tension on the bolt shank is as a result of the force on the 6 head which is mathematically evaluated as

$T = 6 * F$

$= 6* 1398.6$

$T =8391.6 N$

A 1.5m long string weighs 0.0020 kg. It is tensioned to 100N. A disturbance travels along it with a wavelength of 1.5m, find:a)

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

length of the string, L = 1.5 m

mass of the string, m = 0.002 kg

Tension of the string, T = 100 N

wavelength, λ = 1.5 m

The propagation velocity of the wave is calculated as;

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\\mu \ is \ mass \ per \ unit \ length \ of \ the \ string\\\\\mu = \frac{0.002 \ kg}{1.5 \ m} = 0.00133 \ kg/m\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{100}{0.00133} } \\\\v = 274.2 \ m/s$

Therefore, the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s

__________ is when a person becomes less sensitive to a drug. A. Tolerance B. Craving C. Addiction D. Dependence

Luden [163]

A) Tolerance

Tolerance is developed after using a drug repeatedly, so the body adapts to it. Because of that, people who develop a tolerance would then need to use more of that drug to get the same effect.
