Answer:

Explanation:

(a) The force of gravity is called an attractive force because it is the force (although weak) in which a planetary body or matter uses to attract an object towards itself.

(b) Yes, it does and the formula for force of gravity between any two object is

F = G\frac{m1m2}{r}

where m1 and m2 are masses of the first and second object respectively

r is the distance between the center of the two masses

G is the gravitational constant

Work done(as a measure of energy)=force x distance. Use this equation to show that the SI base units of energy are kg m^2 s^-2
Arturiano [62]
Force [kgms^-2] = mass [kg] x acceleration [ms^-2]
Work = force x distance
Work = [kgms^-2] x [m]
Work = [kgm^2s^-2]

A double-slit experiment is set up using red light (λ = 706 nm). A first order bright fringe is seen at a given location on a sc
Elanso [62]

Answer:

λ = 470.66 nm

Explanation:

for bright fringey_m = \frac{m\lambda D}{d}

D= distance between slit and screen

d= distance between the slits

for first order bright fringe m = 1,

        y_1 = \frac{1\lambda D}{d}

         y_1 = {706*D}{d}

for dark fringe,we have

y_m = {(m + 1/2)\lambda D}{d}    

Now to get the dark fringes at the same location we should have;

(706)D/d = (m + 1/2)λD/d    

put m = 1

(1 + 1/2)λ = (706)

λ = 470.66 nm
