How could you increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and Earth?

1 answer:

5 0

Gravitational Potential Energy, GPE = mgh

Where m is your mass in kg, g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and h is the height in m.

The only value that be controlled here is the height h. The mass is constant, and acceleration due to gravity at that place is constant.

But h can be varied.

Hence to increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and Earth is to increase the height h.

This can be done by climbing up a table, or climbing up a building through the stairs, or by using a lift.

450 nm of light falls on a single slit of width 0.30 mm. What is the angular width of the central diffraction peak

Andre45 [30]

Angular width is 3 x 10^-3

Let D be the distance between source and screed d the distance between coherent source then for central diffraction maxima,

where λ is wavelength

Given:

λ = 450 nm = 450×10^−9m

d = 0.3x10^−3m, D = 1m

W = 2 x 450×10^−9/0.3x10^−3*1

To Find:

Angular width

Solution: The width of the central maxima is nothing but the difference between the positions of the first two minima. Hence we will use the expression for the position of minima and accordingly obtain the expression of the width of central maxima and secondary maxima

θ = W/D

θ = 2 x 450×10^−9/0.3x10^−3*1/1 = 3 x 10^-3

Hence, angular width is 3 x 10^-3
