Answer:

a) 1.8°

b) 0.18°

c) 0.018°

Explanation:

Wavelength (λ) = 630nm = 630 *10^-9m

The equation that describes the angular deflection of a dark band is

Wsin(βm) = mλ

w = width of the single slit

λ = wavelength of the light

βm = angular deflection of the mth dark band.

a) In order to get the angular deflection of the first dark band for a slit with 0.02mm width, substitute w = 0.02mm = 0.02*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

0.02*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 0.02*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 0.0315

β1 = Sin^-1(0.0315)

= 1.8°

b) substitute w = 0.2mm = 0.2*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

0.2*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 0.2*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 0.00315

β1 = Sin^-1(0.00315)

= 0.18°

c) substitute w = 2mm = 2*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

2*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 2*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 3.15*10^-4

β1 = Sin^-1(3.15*10^-4)

= 0.018°

A wooden block with mass 1.60 kg is placed against a compressed spring at the bottom of a slope inclined at an angle of 30.0° (p
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The amount of potential energy that was initially stored in the spring is 88.8 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 1.60 kg

Angle = 30.0°

Distance = 6.55 m

Speed = 7.50 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.50

We need to calculate the amount of potential energy

Using formula of conservation of energy between point A and B

U_{A}+k_{A}+w_{A}=U_{B}+k_{B}

U_{A}+0-fd=mgy+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

U_{A}=\mu mg\cos\theta\times d+mg h\sin\theta+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Put the value into the formula

U_{A}=0.50\times1.60\times9.8\cos30\times6.55+1.60\times9.8\times6.55\sin30+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.60\times(7.50)^2

U_{A}=88.8\ J

Hence, The amount of potential energy that was initially stored in the spring is 88.8 J.

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

a) U_{e} = 3 \times 10^{10}\,J, b) v \approx 7745.967\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) The potential energy is:

U_{e} = Q \cdot \Delta V

U_{e} = (30\,C)\cdot (1.0\times 10^{9}\,V)

U_{e} = 3 \times 10^{10}\,J

b) Maximum final speed:

U_{e} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot U_{e}}{m} }

The final speed is:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (3 \times 10^{10}\,J)}{1000\,kg} }

v \approx 7745.967\,\frac{m}{s}

Find the wavelength of the third line in the lyman series, and identify the type of em radiation.
Natalija [7]

The wavelength of the third line in the Lyman series, and identify the type of EM radiation

In this series, the spectral lines are obtained when an electron makes a transition from any high energy level (n=2,3,4,5... ). The wavelength of light emitted in this series lies in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

1 / lambda = R(h)* ( \frac{1}{(n1)^{2} } -   \frac{1}{(n2)^{2} })

                 = 109678 ( \frac{1}{1^{2} } -  \frac{1}{3^{2} } )

                 = 109678 (8/9)

   Lambda = 9 / (109678 * 8 )

                  = 102.6 * 10^{-9} m = 102.6 nm
