Answer:
a)
b)
Explanation:
a)
The width of the central bright in this diffraction pattern is given by:
when m is a natural number.
here:
- m is 1 (to find the central bright fringe)
- D is the distance from the slit to the screen
- a is the slit wide
- λ is the wavelength
So we have:
b)
Now, if we do m=2 we can find the distance to the second minima.

Now we need to subtract these distance, to get the width of the first bright fringe :
I hope it heps you!
Answer:
17.1
Explanation:
The distance ahead, of the deer when it is sighted by the park ranger, d = 20 m
The initial speed with which the ranger was driving, u = 11.4 m/s
The acceleration rate with which the ranger slows down, a = (-)3.80 m/s² (For a vehicle slowing down, the acceleration is negative)
The distance required for the ranger to come to rest, s = Required
The kinematic equation of motion that can be used to find the distance the ranger's vehicle travels before coming to rest (the distance 's'), is given as follows;
v² = u² + 2·a·s
∴ s = (v² - u²)/(2·a)
Where;
v = The final velocity = 0 m/s (the vehicle comes to rest (stops))
Plugging in the values for 'v', 'u', and 'a', gives;
s = (0² - 11.4²)/(2 × -3.8) = 17.1
The distance the required for the ranger's vehicle to com to rest, s = 17.1 (meters).
Answer:
0.405 seconds
Explanation:
Consider the amount of time it takes the block to fall from 53 m up to 14 m above the ground; then consider the amount of time it takes the block to fall from 53 m up to 2 m above the ground.
First, d = (1/2) gt^2 or t= ( 2 d / g)^1/2
= ( 2 × 39 / 9.8)^1/2 = 2.8212 seconds
Then, to fall from 53 down to 2 meters...
d = (1/2) gt^2 or t= ( 2 d / g)^1/2
= ( 2 * 51/ 9.8 )^1/2 = 3.2262 seconds
So the amount of time it takes for the block to fall from 14 m upto 2 m above the ground
3.2262 - 2.8212 = 0.405 seconds
this is how much time there is from when the man sees the block until it hits him. Not much time...
Answer:
a). 6 seconds
b). 12 seconds
c). 176.4 meters
Explanation:
a). Equation to be applied to calculate the time taken by the rocket to reach at the peak height,
v = u - gt
where v = final velocity
u = initial velocity = 58.8 m per sec
g = gravitational pull = 9.8 m per sec²
t = duration of the flight
At the peak height,
v = 0
Therefore, 0 = 58.8 - (9.8)(t)
t = 
= 6 seconds
b). Total time of flight = 2(Time taken to go up)
= 2×6
= 12 sec
c). Formula to get the peak height is,

h = (58.8)6 - 
= 352.8 - 176.4
= 176.4 meters
