Answer:

Explanation:

distance between two slit  d = \frac{1 \times 10^{-2}}{5510}

d = 18.15 x 10⁻⁷ m

Let wave length of light λ

formula for  position of  first pair of bright spot

Tanθ = λ / d , λ is wave length of light and d is distance between two slit .

Tan 15.4 = \frac{\lambda}{18.15\times10^{-7}}

λ = Tan 15.4 x 18.15 x 10⁻⁷

=5 x 10⁻⁷ m

If θ be the position of next bright spot

Tanθ = 2 λ / d

= \frac{2 \times\ 5\times\ 10^ {-7}}{18.15\times10^{-7}}

=\frac{2\times5}{18.5}

θ = 28.4 degree .

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

v = 1.2 m/s

Explanation:

The wavelength of the waves is given as the horizontal distance between the crests:

λ = wavelength = 5.5 m

Now, the time period is given as the time taken by boat to move from the highest point again to the highest point. So it will be equal to twice the time taken by the boat to travel from highest to the lowest point:

T = Time Period = 2(2.3 s) = 4.6 s

Now, the speed of the wave is given as:

v = f\lambda

where,

v= speed of wave = ?

f = frequency of wave = \frac{1}{T} = \frac{1}{4.6\ s} = 0.217\ Hz

Therefore,

v = (0.217\ Hz)(5.5\ m)\\

<u>v = 1.2 m/s</u>

1. The horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's velocity are
Anni [7]

The horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's velocity are independent of each other.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The path of a projectile is determined by two components of motion. They are termed as horizontal and the vertical components. Since both components velocity are perpendicular to each other, so it can stated that they are independent of each other.

Even it can seen that when the horizontal components of velocity is constant, then there will be change in the vertical components of velocity leading to free fall projectile path.

And in the absence of gravity, there will be change in the horizontal components of velocity with zero vertical component of velocity. Thus, the horizontal and the vertical components of a projectile’s velocity are seemed to be independent of each other.

The eiffel tower has a mass of 7.3 million kilograms and a height of 324 meters. its base is square with a side length of 125 me
uranmaximum [27]

Since the tower base is square with a side length of  125 m,

Therefore,

(125\ m)^2+ (125\ m)^2=31250 m^2

Square root of 31250 = 176.776953 (Diameter) , so this is the diameter of the cylinder to enclose it, and radius, r = 88.38834765 m and height, h = 324 m.

The volume of cylinder,

=\pi r^2h=3.14(88.38834765 m)^2\times 324 m =7948168.803\ m^3

Thus, the mass of the air in the cylinder,

=1.225\ kg/m^3 \times 7948168.803\ m^3=9736506.78\ kg

Hence, the mass of the air in the cylinder is this more  than the mass of the tower.
