Two narrow slits are 0.12 mm apart. light of wavelength 550 nm illuminates the slits, causing an interference pattern on a scree

n 1.0 m away. Light from each slit travels to the m=1 maximum on the right side of the central maximum. how much farther did the light from the left slit travel that the light from the right slit?

Answer:

500 nm

Explanation:

d_l = Distance traveled by light from left slit

d_r = Distance traveled by light from right slit

\Delta x = Path difference = d_l-d_r

m = Order = 1

\lambda = Wavelength = 550 nm

Path difference is given by

\Delta x=m\lambda\\\Rightarrow d_l-d_r=1\times 550\\\Rightarrow d_l-d_r=500\ nm

The required distance is 500 nm

If a vibrating string is made shorter (i.e., by holding your finger on it), what effect does this have on the frequency of vibra
Temka [501]
The correct answer is "3. Both increase"

In fact, the frequency of a vibrating string is given by
f= \frac{1}{2L}  \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }
where L is the length of hte string, T the tension and \mu the linear mass density. 
We can see that string is made shorter, L decreases, so the frequency f increases. And since the pitch has the same behaviour of the frequency, it increases as well.

Calculate the acceleration of a car that can go from rest to 100 km/h in 10 seconds
Basile [38]

Answer: 2.77 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Acceleration a is defined as the variation of velocity \Delta V with time \Delta t:

a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}

Where:

\Delta V=100km/h-0km/h=100km/h=27.77m/s

\Delta t=10 s

a=\frac{27.77m/s}{10 s}

Finally:

a=2.77m/s^{2}
