physics Test 2 In a double slit experiment, if the separation between the two slits is 0.050 mm and the distance from the slits

to a screen is 2.5 m, find the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes when coherent light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates the slits.

Answer:0.015 m

Explanation:

Given

distance between two slits(d)=0.050 mm

Distance between slit and screen=2.5 m

Wavelength $(\lambda )=600 nm$

and distance between First order and second order $=\frac{D\lambda }{2d}$

$=\frac{2.5\times 600\times 10^{-9}}{2\times 5\times 10^{-5}}$

$=15\times 10^{-3}$

=0.015 m

During Photosynthesis, solar energy is absorbed. What kind of reaction is<br> taking place?

Semmy [17]

Answer:

In the light-dependent reactions, which take place at the thylakoid membrane, chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight and then converts it into chemical energy with the use of water. The light-dependent reactions release oxygen from the hydrolysis of water as a byproduct.

A train at a constant 79.0 km/h moves east for 27.0 min, then in a direction 50.0° east of due north for 29.0 min, and then west

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Magnitude of avg velocity, $|v_{avg}| = 18.9 km/h$

$\theta' = 56.85^{\circ}$

Given:

Constant speed of train, v = 79 km/h

Time taken in East direction, t = 27 min = $\frac{27}{60} h$

Angle, $\theta = 50^{\circ}$

Time taken in $50^{\circ}$ east of due North direction, t' = 29 min = $\frac{29}{60} h$

Time taken in west direction, t'' = 37 min = $\frac{27}{60} h$

Solution:

Now, the displacement, 's' in east direction is given by:

$\vec{s} = vt = 79\times \frac{27}{60} = 35.5\hat{i} km$

Displacement in $50^{\circ}$ east of due North for 29.0 min is given by:

$\vec{s'} = vt'sin50^{\circ}\hat{i} + vt'cos50^{\circ}\hat{j}$

$\vec{s'} = 79(\frac{29}{60})sin50^{\circ}\hat{i} + 79(\frac{29}{60})cos50^{\circ}\hat{j}$

$\vec{s'} = 29.25\hat{i} + 24.54\hat{j} km$

Now, displacement in the west direction for 37 min:

$\vec{s''} = - vt''hat{i} = - 79\frac{37}{60} = - 48.72\hat{i} km$

Now, the overall displacement,

$\vec{s_{net}} = \vec{s} + \vec{s'} + \vec{s''}$

$\vec{s_{net}} = 35.5\hat{i} + 29.25\hat{i} + 24.54\hat{j} - 48.72\hat{i}$

$\vec{s_{net}} = 16.03\hat{i} + 24.54\hat{j} km$

(a) Now, average velocity, $v_{avg}$ is given:

$v_{avg} = \frac{total displacement, \vec{s_{net}}}{total time, t}$

$v_{avg} = \frac{16.03\hat{i} + 24.54\hat{j}}{\frac{27 + 29 + 37}{60}}$

$v_{avg} = 10.34\hat{i} + 15.83\hat{j}) km/h$

Magnitude of avg velocity is given by:

$|v_{avg}| = \sqrt{(10.34)^{2} + (15.83)^{2}} = 18.9 km/h$

(b) angle can be calculated as:

$tan\theta' = \frac{15.83}{10.34}$

$\theta' = tan^{- 1}\frac{15.83}{10.34} = 56.85^{\circ}$

A 1.50-m-long rope is stretched between two supports with a tension that makes the speed of transverse waves 48.0 m/s. What are

astra-53 [7]

Answer: a) 16Hz, 3m b) 48Hz, 1mc) 80Hz, 0.6m

Explanation:

a) Fundamental frequency in string is represented as Fo = V/2L where;

Fo is the fundamental frequency

V is the speed of the transverse wave = 48m/s

L is the length of the wire. = 1.50m

Substituting this values in the formula given we have;

Fo = 48/2(1.5)

Fo = 48/3

Fo = 16Hz

The fundamental tone is therefore 16Hz

Using v =f¶

Where f is the frequency and ¶ is the wavelength, the wavelength of the fundamental note will be;

¶ = v/fo

¶ = 48/16 = 3m

b) Overtones or harmonics is the multiple integral of the fundamental frequency. The multiples are I'm arithmetical progression.

First overtone f1 = 2fo

Second overtone f2 = 3fo etc.

Since fo = 16Hz

Second overtone f2 = 3×16 = 48Hz

¶ = v/f2 = 48/48

¶ = 1m

c) Fourth harmonic or overtone will be f4 = 5fo

F4 = 5×16 = 80Hz

The fourth harmonic is therefore 80Hz

¶ = v/f4 = 48/80

¶ = 0.6m

Below is the data from a gas law experiment comparing the pressure and the volume of a gas at a given temperature.

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The combined gas equation relates three variables pressure, temperature and volume when the number of moles is constant.

The equation is PV / T = constant. Which is valid for a fixed number of moles of the gas.

You can derive the combined gas equation from the combination of Bolye's law, Charles' law and Gay-Lussac's law, which needs some algebra.
