A two slit pattern is viewed on a screen 1.00m from the slits if the two third-order minima are 22.0 cm apart what is the width

Answer:

4.4 cm

Explanation:

Given:

Distance of the screen from the slit, D = 1 m

Distance between two third order interference minimas, x = 22 cm

Let's say, minima occurs at:

x_n = (n + \frac{1}{2}) \frac{wL}{d}

We have:

2x_2 = 2(2 + \frac{1}{2}) * \frac{w*22}{d}

Calculating further for the width of the central bright fringe, we have:

\frac{w}{d} = \frac{22}{5}

= 4.4 cm

Note: w in representswavelength

A car mass of 1.2 x 10 kilograms starts from rest and attains a speed of 20 meters/seconds in 5 seconds. What net force acted on
lorasvet [3.4K]

Net force on the car=F=4.8 x 10³ N

Explanation:

mass of car= 1.2 x 10³ Kg

initial velocity= Vi=0

Final velocity= Vf= 20 m/s

time = t= 5 s

Using kinematic equation,

Vf= Vi + at

20= 0 + a (5)

5 a=20

a= 20/5

a= 4 m/s²

Now force is given by F = ma

F= 1.2 x 10³ (4)

F=4.8 x 10³ N

C. A could be ruby (speed of light = 170,000 km/s); B could be diamond (speed of light = 120,000 km/s).

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon that occurs when a light rays crosses the boundary between two different mediums.

When this occurs, the light wave changes speed and also direction, according to Snell's law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2 (1)

where

n_1 is the index of refraction of the first medium

n_2 is the index of refraction of the second medium

\theta_1 is the angle of incidence (the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the boundary)

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction (the angle between the refracted ray and the normal to the boundary)

The index of refraction is the ratio between the speed of light in a vacuum (c) and the speed of light in the medium (v):

n=\frac{c}{v}

Using this definition, we can rewrite eq.(1) as

\frac{\sin \theta_2}{\sin \theta_1} = \frac{v_2}{v_1}

Where v_2 is the speed of light in the 2nd medium and v_1 the speed of light in the 1st medium.

Now let's analyze the situation represented in the figure: we see that as the light ray enters the 2nd medium, it bends towards the normal, this means that the angle of refraction is smaller than the angle of incidence:

\theta_2 < \theta_1

This means that

\frac{\sin \theta_2}{\sin \theta_1}

And therefore,

\frac{v_2}{v_1}

So, the speed of light in the second medium is smaller than the speed of light in the first medium: this occurs only in option C), which is therefore the correct choice.

3. An explosion of gas from a Hawaiian volcano blows a bunch of rocks into the sky. Each has 2000J of
anzhelika [568]

Answer: 3.906kg

Explanation:

K.E = 2000J

V = 32m/s

m =?

K.E = 1/2MV2

2000 = 1/2M x (32^2)

2000 = 1/2M x 1024

2000 = 512M

M = 2000/512

M = 3.906kg
