Answer: D. Diffract
Explanation:
Diffraction is a phenomenon that is based on the deviation of the waves (light waves in this case) when encountering an obstacle.
In addition, it is important to note this phenomenom occurs in all types of waves (ncluding electromagnetic waves).
So, in a general way:
Diffraction happens when a wave (mechanical or electromagnetic wave) meets an obstacle or a slit . When this occurs, the wave bends around the corners of the obstacle or passes through the opening of the slit that acts as an obstacle.
Hence, the correct option is D:
<h3>In order to demonstrate the interference of light waves, the light source emits rays of light, which <u>diffract</u> towards the double slit.</h3>
Answer:
0.999958c
Explanation:
Remember that the trip involves traveling for six months at a constant velocity thus returning home at same speed . The time interval of this trip will therefore be one year.
Accurate time interval to be measured by the clock on the spaceship Δt0 = 1.0 years
Time interval as advanced on earth observed from the spacecraft Δt = 110 years
the formula for time dilation is
Δt = Δt0 /√(1-v2/c2)
or v = c*√1-(Δt0/Δt)2
=c*√[1-(1year/110years)2]
= 0.999958c
this is basically the same as volume, no?
So, 5.345*4.128*3.859=85.145
Answer:
each resistor is 540 Ω
Explanation:
Let's assign the letter R to the resistance of the three resistors involved in this problem. So, to start with, the three resistors are placed in parallel, which results in an equivalent resistance defined by the formula:
Therefore, R/3 is the equivalent resistance of the initial circuit.
In the second circuit, two of the resistors are in parallel, so they are equivalent to:
and when this is combined with the third resistor in series, the equivalent resistance () of this new circuit becomes the addition of the above calculated resistance plus the resistor R (because these are connected in series):
The problem states that the difference between the equivalent resistances in both circuits is given by:
so, we can replace our found values for the equivalent resistors (which are both in terms of R) and solve for R in this last equation:
