Two narrow slits 0.02 mm apart are illuminated by light from a CuAr laser (λ = 633 nm) onto a screen. a) If the first fringe is

0.2 cm away from the central fringe, what is the screen distance? b) What is the angle of the first dark fringe? c) How many fringes are visible? d) What wavelength would a laser have to provide a fringe that coincides (lines up) with the third order fringe of the CuAr laser?

Answer:

a) 0.063m

b) 2.72°

c) 3151 fringes

d) 1.87*10^-6m

Explanation:

a) To find the screen distance you use the following formula:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{d}\\\\D=\frac{dy}{m\lambda}

D: screen distance

d: distance between slits

m: order of the fringes

λ: wavelength

By replacing the values of the parameters you obtain:

D=\frac{(0.02*10^{-3}m)(0.2*10^{-2}m)}{(1)(633*10^{-9}m)}=0.063m

b) The condition for dark fringes is given by:

\lambda(m+\frac{1}{2})=dsin\theta

for the first dark fringe the angle is:

\theta=sin^{-1}(\frac{\lambda(m+\frac{1}{2})}{d})\\\\\theta=sin^{-1}(\frac{(633*10^{-9}m)(1+\frac{1}{2})}{0.02*10^{-3}m})=2.72\°

c) the visible number of fringes is given by:

N=1+2\frac{D}{d}=1+\frac{0.063m}{0.02*10^{-3}}=3151 \ fringes

d) the wavelength of a laser in which its first order fringe coincides with the third one of the CuAr laser is:

y=\frac{(3)(633*10^{-9}m)(0.063m)}{0.02*10^{-3}m}=5.98*10^{-3}m\approx0.59cm\\\\\lambda'=\frac{dy}{mD}=\frac{(0.02*10^{-3}m)(0.59*10^{-2}m)}{(1)(0.063m)}=1.87*10^{-6}m

A rock has a mass of 25kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 10m/s and the height of the rock is 42 m. Find the potential energ
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

Explanation:

 Mass of rock = 25 kg

 Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

 Height = 42 m

 Potential energy, PE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

 PE = 25 x 10 x 42 = 10500 N = 10.5 kN

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

A 6.00 A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has 8.5×1028 free elect
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Current, I = 6 A

diameter of wire, d = 2.05 mm

number of electrons per unit volume, n = 8.5 x 10^28

If the diameter is doubled,

The resistance of the wire is inversely proportional to the square of the diameter of the wire, so the resistance is  one forth an the current is directly proportional to the diameter of the wire so the current is four times the initial value.
