3 0

Answer:

the number of lines is 526

Explanation:

The wavelength  λ =600nm = 600 × 10⁻⁶ mm

The diffraction angle θ = 39°

Recall the expression for the relation between the wavelength, angle and central maxima distance.

Recall the expression for the relation between the wavelength, angle and central maxima distance.

Recall the expression for the relation between the wavelength, angle and central maxima distance.

relation between the wave length, angle and central maxima distance

d =  nλ / sinθ

Here n = 2 for second order maxima and d is the distance

= 2(600 × 10⁻⁶) / sin 39°

= 1200 × 10⁻⁶ / 0.6293

= 1.9 × 10⁻³ mm

N = 1/d

= 1 / 1.9 × 10⁻³

= 526

The grating has a line density of 526 lines per millimeter

A radio station broadcast on a frequency of 3.7 mhz what is the energy of the radio wave
Ratling [72]

A radio station broadcast on a frequency of 3.7 mhz what is the energy of the radio wave A radio station broadcasts its programmes at a wavelength of 500 m. Find the frequency of the radiowaves transmitted by the radio station, if the speed of radiowaves in air is 3 x 108 m/s. Ans: 6 x 10 Hz

<h3>What is radio station ?</h3>

Radio broadcasting is the act of sending audio (sound), occasionally together with accompanying metadata, across radio waves to radio receivers used by the general public. Unlike satellite radio, which uses a satellite in Earth's orbit, terrestrial radio broadcasting uses a land-based radio station to transmit radio waves. The listener needs a broadcast radio receiver to hear the material (radio). A radio network with which stations frequently have affiliations provide content in a standard radio format, whether through broadcast syndication, simulcasting, or both. Radio stations use a variety of modulations to transmit their signals, including FM (frequency modulation), which is an older analog audio standard, and AM (amplitude modulation).

If the total momentum of a system is changing:
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

(d) a net external force must be acting on the system

Explanation:

Momentum is given as the product of mass and velocity.

P = MV

According to Newton's second law of motion, " Force applied to a body (system) is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the body (system) which takes place in the direction of the applied force (external force).

F ∝ΔMV

Therefore, If the total momentum of a system is changing, a net external force must be acting on the system.

(d) a net external force must be acting on the system
