Answer: The correct answer is deposition.

Explanation:

Deposition: It is a process conversion of gaseous state directly to the solid state by escaping the liquid state.

Gas → Solid (Deposition)

The cause of frost on the grass in the autumn is ,when the temperature of the air near to ground decreases down to the temperature lower than freezing point of the water. This decrease in temperature of the air leads to formation of ice crystals from the water vapors present in the air on the grass.

Water vapor → Ice crystals (Deposition)

Hence the correct answer is option(a).

marin [14]

Because the temperature remains constant, we can apply Boyle's Law which states that
pV = constant
where
p = pressure
V = volume

Define the two states of the gas.

State 1
Pressure = p₁
Volume = 1000 ml

State 2
Pressure = p₂
Volume = 500 ml

Apply Boyle's law.
1000p₁ = 500p₂
2 = p₂/p₁

By halving the volume, the pressure doubles.

Answer:
The pressure increases by a factor of 2.

A 5.00 kilogram block slides along a horizontal,frictionless surface at 10.0 meters per second. for 4.00 seconds. The magnitude

finlep [7]

In this question a lot of information's are provided. Among the information's provided one information and that is the time of 4 seconds is not required for calculating the answer. Only the other information's are required.
Mass of the block that is sliding = 5.00 kg
Distance for which the block slides = 10 meters/second
Then we already know that
Momentum = Mass * Distance travelled
= (5 * 10) Kg m/s
= 50 kg m/s
So the magnitude of the blocks momentum is 50 kg m/s. The correct option among all the given options is option "b".

The electric field strength in the space between two closely spaced parallel disks is 1.0 105 N/C. This field is the result of t

balu736 [363]

Answer:

$D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m$

Explanation:

*Assume the parallel disks have equal diameters.

Given the electric strength as $1.0\times 10^5 N/C.$ transferring $3.9\times 10^9$ electrons, the disk's Area can be calculated using the formula:

$E=\frac{\eta}{\epsilon_o}=\frac{Q}{A\epsilon_o}\\\\A=\frac{Q}{E\epsilon_o}\\\\=\frac{(3.9\times 10^9)\times (1.6\times10^{-19})}{(1.0\times 10^5 )\times (8.85\times10^{-12})}\\\\A=7.0508\times 10^{-4} \ m^2$

#We now calculate the disks diameter:

$A=\pi(D/2)^2\\\\2\sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}=D\\\\=2\sqrt{7.0508\times 10^{-4}/\pi}\\\\D=2.996\times 10^{-2} \ m$

Hence, the diameter of the disks is $D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m$

Because the top mirror is not perfectly reflective (it reflects 90% of the photons, allowing 10% of them to go through), the pow

allsm [11]

This question is incomplete, the complete question;

you make an interferometer using 50-50 beam splitter and two mirrors, one being a perfect mirror and one which does not reflect all light. The wavelength of the 9 mW incident laser is 400 nm.

Because the top mirror is not perfectly reflective (it reflects 90% of the photons, allowing 10% of them to go through), the power measured at the detector when only the vertical arm is blocked is 2.25 mW, while the power measured at the detector when only the horizontal arm is blocked is only 2.025 mW. Assume initially the intensity is at its maximum. How much would we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector, and what is that minimum intensity

Options;

a) 200 nm; 0.9 mW

b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW

c) 200 nm; 0 mW

d) 100 nm; 0.9 mW

e) 200 nm; 0.0059 mW

Answer:

the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector and the minimum intensity are;

100 nm; 0.0059 mW

Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given that the instrument here is an interferometer.

Maximum intensity is obtained when the two waves are exactly in phase.

that is the peaks (crusts and troughs) and nodes (zero value points) of the two waves will be at the exact same point when the wave falls on the detector.

The phase factor of this point is taken as ∅ = 0

Now, to get a minimum point, the phase difference between the two waves should be should be ∅ = π

This corresponds to a path difference between the two waves as half of the wavelength. λ/2

The light gets reflected from the mirror.

Hence, when we move the mirror by a length l, the extra/less path the light has to travel is 2l (light is going and coming back)

hence, to get a path difference of λ/2 the mirror should move half of this distance only

so, the mirror should move;

$l$ = λ/4

here, wavelength is 400nm

the length moved by the mirror = 400/4 = 100 nm

The intensity is given by the equation;

$l$ = $l$ 1 + $l$ 2 + 2√ $l$ 1 $l$ 2cos(∅)

where

$l$ 1 = 2.25 mW

$l$ 2 = 2.025 mW

∅ = π

so we substitute

$l$ = 2.25 + 2.025 - 2√(2.25 × 2.025)

$l$ = 4.275 - 4.26907

$l$ = 0.0059

Therefore; the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector and the minimum intensity are;

100 nm; 0.0059 mW

Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer
