3. The angular dispersion of a prism depends on

Physics
1 answer:
oksian1 [2.3K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The angular dispersion of a prism depends on the index of refraction only.

Explanation:

The angular dispersion of a prism mainly depends upon the refractive index of a material. And this refractive index is dependent on the wavelength of light. Each colour possesses its own characteristic and the wavelength is also different. There has been a relation between refractive index of a material and wavelength of light  higher the wavelength of the colour, greater would be the dispersion of light. As like when we passes light from a prism, according to this principle, the colours are dispersed.  

All the other options are incorrect as cannot decide angle of dispersion.

Calculate the number of molecules/m3 in an ideal gas at stp.
vivado [14]
STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure) has the following conditions:

Temperature = 273.15 K = 0°C
Pressure = 101325 Pa = 101.325 KPa = 1 atm

We also know that 1 mole = 6.022x10^23 molecules

Using the ideal gas equation: PV=nRT

n/V = P/RT

molecules/V = P*6.022x10^23/RT
molecules/V = 101325 Pa (6.022x10^23 molecules/mole)/ (8.314 Pa-m3/mol-K)(273.15K)

molecules/V = 7.339x10^27 molecules/m^3 - Final answer

Calculate the wavelength associated with electrons moving with p.d of 1500v
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

3.16X10∧-11 m

Explanation:

1/2 mv2 = qV (KE = Electric potential energy)

velocity = √2qV/m = √( 2X 1.6X10∧-19 X 1500/9.11X10∧-31)

2.3X10∧7m/s

now use De Broglie equation

λ = h/mv

= 6.62X10∧-34/( 9.11X10∧-31 X 2.3X10∧7)

3.16 X 10∧-11 m

or

use the above equations and substitute to get the final eqiation

λ = h/√(2mqV) = 3.16X 10∧-11 m

Describe the term of inertia with the respect of motion
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

Explanation:

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

Newton's First Law of Motion is also known as Law of Inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

The inertia of an object such as a truck is greatly dependent or influenced by its mass; the higher quantity of matter in a trailer, the greater will be its tendency to continuously remain at rest.

In conclusion, inertia is applicable to all physical objects.
