Need help to find the potential energy

Physics
1 answer:
VladimirAG [237]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Potential energy is defined as <em>"the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to the other objects". </em>

  • For the gravitational force ,<em> Potential energy =</em> <em>mgh  </em><em>Joules.</em>
  • <em>g = 9.81 m/s² ; acceleration due to gravity</em>
  • Examples: <em>1. A raised weight, water behind the dam, stretched rubber band.</em>

In a Young’s interference experiment, the two slits are separated by 0.150 mm and the incident light includes two wavelengths: l
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

2.52 × 10⁻² cm

Explanation:

The distance of bright fringe from the center of the screen is given by the formula

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

Here, wavelength is λ, Distance of the screen from the slits is D, seperation between the

slits is d.

   

Separation between the slits, d = 0.15 mm

                                                     = 0.15 * 10^{-3} m

Distance of the screen from the slits = 1.40 m

We have a wavelength, λ1 = 540 nm

                                           = 540 * 10^{-9} m

By substituting all these values in the above equation we get

                y1 = mλD/d

                y1 = m(540 \times 10^{-9} m)(1.40 m)/(0.15 \times 10^{-3} m)

                y1 = m(5.04 * 10^{-3} m)

We have a wavelength, λ2 = 450 nm

                                           = 450 * 10^-9 m

By substituting all these values in the above equation we get

                y_2 = \frac{m\lambda D}{d}

                y_2 = m(450 * 10^{-9} m)(1.40 m)/(0.15 * 10^{-3} m)

                y_2 = m'(4.20 * 10^{-3} m)

According to the problem, these two distance are coincides with each other.

So,

                           y_1 = y_2

m(5.04 * 10^{-3} m) = m'(4.20 * 10^{-3} m)

by testing values, the above equation is satisfied only when, m = 5 and m' = 6

Then from the above we have

                           y1 = y2 = 0.0252 m

                                         = 2.52 × 10⁻² cm

An ultrasound unit is being used to measure a patient's heartbeat by combining the emitted 2.0 MHz signal with the sound waves r
alexandr402 [8]
Hi there, 
for this question we have:
Signal 2.0 MHz = Emitted so we can call it f_e
and we need the Reflected = f_{r}
In this question, we have a source which goes to the heart and a reflected which comes back from the heart and we need the speed of the reflected.
So you should know that the speed of reflected is lower than the source(Emitted). 
we also know: ΔBeat frequency(max) = 560 Hz = f_{b}
so we have: 
f_{e} - f_{r} = f_{b}
so frequency of Reflected is: 
2.0 × 10^6 Hz - 560 Hz = 1.99 × 10^6 Hz = f_{r}
now you know that Lambda = v/f 
so if we find the lambda with our Emitted then we can find v with the Reflected: 
Lambda = 1540(m/s) / 2.0 × 10^6 Hz = 7.7 × 10^-4 m 
=> v_{max} = (lambda)(f_{r} 
=> 7.7 × 10^-4m (1.99 × 10^6Hz) = 1532 m/s 
so the v_{max} is equal to 1532 m/s :)))
This question is solved by two top teachers as fast as they could :))
