Answer:

0.0613°C

Explanation:

the given parameters are m=15gm=15×10⁻³  V₁=865m/s  V₂=534m/s

the bullet moves with different kinetic energies before and after the penetration, therefore

Kinetic energy before - kinetic energy after = 1/2 × m × ( V₁² - V₂²)

                                                                         =\frac{1}{2} × 15×10⁻³ × (865² - 534²)

                                                                         = 3.47 × 10⁻³J

 this loss in energy is transferred to the water, therefore

change in temperature = \frac{Q}{m  C}

where c = heat capacity of water = 4.19 x 10^3

          m = mass of water = 13.5 kg

= {3.47 × 10⁻³} / {13.5 x  4.19 x 10^3 }

=0.0613°C

The reflective surface of a CD consists of spirals of equally spaced grooves. If you shine a laser pointer on a CD, each groove
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

d = 1.55 * 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

To calculate the distance between the adjacent grooves of the CD, use the formula, d = \frac{m \lambda}{sin(A_{m}) }..........(1)

The fringe number, m = 1 since it is a first order maximum

The wavelength of the green laser pointer, \lambda = 532 nm = 532 * 10⁻⁹ m

Distance between the central maximum and the first order maximum = 1.1 m

Distance between the screen and the CD = 3 m

A_{m} = Angle between the incident light and the diffracted light

From the setup shown in the attachment, it is a right angled triangle in which

sin(A_{m}) = \frac{opposite}{Hypotenuse} \\sin(A_{m}) =\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1.1^{2}+3^{2}}}

sin(A_{m} ) = 0.344\\A_{m} = sin^{-1} 0.344\\A_{m} = 20.14^{0}

Putting all appropriate values into equation (1)

d = \frac{1* 532*10^{-9} }{0.344 }\\d = 0.00000155 m\\d = 1.55 * 10^{-6} m
