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 roller coaster cart, with a mass of 100 kg, traveled this coaster, how much kinetic energy would it have at point 'E'?
zzz [600]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming no friction between the roller coaster car and the hill, and neglecting air resistance, the kinetic energy the roller coaster car would have at the bottom of the hill would be equal to its gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill, by conservation of energy.

If you wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer, which way would you move the horn, relative to where that obs
Vladimir [108]
We assume that horn releases sound of constant frequency. In order for observer to observe different frequency either horn or observer or both must move.

This happens due to Doppler effect. It states that when position of source of sound and observer relative to each other changes, the observed frequency also changes. If the source emits sound of constant frequency than observed frequency will be either higher or lower than original.

When distance between source and observer increases the observed frequency will be lower. This is because same number of sound waves must cover greater distance so they have greater wavelength.
When distance between source and observer decreases the observed frequency will be higher. This is because same number of sound waves must cover smaller distance so they have smaller wavelength. 

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional meaning when one increases the other drecreases.

From this explanation we can find answer for our question. <span>If we wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer we need to move horn away from an observer.</span>

Ana kicks a stationary 0.2kg soccer ball. The ball leaves her foot at a speed of 20 m/s.
elena55 [62]

Answer:a. 24 kg m/s

b.  3/5s

Explanation:

a.impulse is the change in momentum so at first the momentum is zero because the ball was at rest and the final momentum is 1.2kg*20m/s=24 kg m/s

so the impulse would be (24-0) kg m/s=24 kg m/s

b. so the impulse equation is impulse is force *delts time

so 24 kg m/s=40N*t

t=24 kg m/s /40N=3/5 s

A box of mass 1 kg is hung from a spring scale. The reading on the spring scale is approximately 10N. What would be the reading
8090 [49]
The answer will be 50N.
This is because the spring reads weight and weight is mass times acceleration due to gravity.5kg*10m/s2=50N
