Answer:
Diameter of Newton’s 5th ring = 0.30 cm
Diameter of Newton’s 15th ring = 0.62 cm
Diameter of Newton’s 25th ring = ?
From Newton’s rings experiment we infer that
D2n+m − D2n = 4λmR
For the 5th and 15th rings we have
D215 − D25 = 4λ * 10 * R _______ (1) (m = 10)
For 15th and 25th rings
D225 − D215 = 4λ * 10 * R _______ (2) (m = 10)
We equate the two derivatives
Equation (2) = Equation (1)
D225 − D215 = D215 − D25
D225 = 2D215 – D25
Substituting the values into the equation
D225 = 2 * 0.62 * 0.62 – 0.3 * 0.3 =0.6788 cm2
D25 = 0.8239 cm
The period of the wave is the reciprocal of its frequency.
1 / (5 per second) = 0.2 second .
The wavelength is irrelevant to the period. But since you
gave it to us, we can also calculate the speed of the wave.
Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)
= (5 per second) x (1cm) = 5 cm per second
Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A process in which transfer of heat occurring when one object touches another object is known as conduction.
For example, when a pan is heated and then an egg is placed over the pan. Then there will be transfer of heat from pan towards the egg.
As a result, the egg gets cooked because the egg was touching the pan.
Hence, we can conclude that it is conduction because the egg is touching the pan.
