Answer:

= 6.55cm

Explanation:

Given that,

distance = 1.26 m

distance between  two fourth-order maxima = 53.6 cm

distance between central bright fringe and fourth order maxima

y = Y / 2

  =  53.6cm / 2

  = 26.8 cm

  =0.268 m

tan θ = y / d

         = 0.268 m /  1.26 m

         = 0.2127

       θ = 12°

4th maxima

d sinθ = 4λ

d / λ = 4 / sinθ

d / λ = 4 / sin 12°

d / λ = 19.239

for first (minimum)

d sinθ = λ / 2

sinθ =  λ / 2d

       =  1 / 2(19.239)

       = 1 / 38.478

       = 0.02599

    θ =  1.489°

tan θ = y / d

y = d tan θ

  = 1.26 tan 1.489°

  = 0.03275

the total width of the central bright fringe  

Y = 2y

  = 2(0.03275)

  = 0.0655m

  = 6.55cm

Bruno the bat flies at a speed of 0.5 m/s in circle of radius 1 m. What is his acceleration?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Acceleration is 0.25m/s^2

Explanation:

Given the following :

Speed = 0.5m/s

Radius(r) of circle = 1m

Acceleration round a circular path is given as :

a = v^2 / r

Where

a = acceleration of the body

v = speed / velocity

r = radius

Therefore,

a = v^2 / r

a = (0.5)^2 / 1

a = 0.25m/s^2
