Answer:

a.Beth

b.2232 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Distance,d=400 mi

Speed of Alan,v=45 mph

Speed of Beth,v'=55 mph

a.Time =\frac{distance}{speed}

Using the formula

Time taken by Alan=\frac{400}{45}=8.89 hr

Time taken by Beth=\frac{400}{55}=7.27hr

Alan will reach San Francisco at 4:53 PM

Beth will reach San Francisco at 4:16 PM

Beth will reach before Alan.

b.Difference between time=8.89-7.27=1.62 hr

t=1.62 hr

1.62-1=0.62 hr

0.62 hr=0.62\times 60\times 60=2232 s

Hence, Beth has to wait 2232 s for Alan to arrive .

Find the slit separation of a double-slit arrangement that will produce interference fringes 0.018 rad apart on a distant screen
inessss [21]

Answer:

1.64 * 10^(-5) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Angular separation, θ = 0.018 rad

Wavelength, λ = 589 nm = 5.89 * 10^(-7) m

The angular separation when there are 2 slots is given as

θ = λ/2d

where d = separation between slits

d = λ/2θ

d = (589 * 10^(-9))/(2 * 0.018)

d = 1.64 * 10^(-5) m

What does deposition mean in a sedimentary formation
Zinaida [17]
Answer:

Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of that material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water. Deposition means that all the sediments, soil, and rocks are all compressed (tightly pressed into each other) and create sedimentary rocks.

I hope this helps! :)
