Visible light passes through a diffraction grating that has 900 slits per centimeter, and the interference pattern is observed o

n a screen that is 2.40 m from the grating. Part A In the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 2.92 mm . What is the difference between these wavelengths? Express your answer in meters.

Answer:

13.51 nm

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we are going to use angle approximation that sin θ ≈ tan θ ≈ θ where our θ is in radians

y/L=tan θ ≈ θ

and ∆θ ≈∆y/L

Where ∆y= wavelength distance= 2.92 mm =0.00292m

L=screen distance= 2.40 m

=0.00292m/2.40m

=0.001217 rad

The grating spacing is d = (90000 lines/m)^−1

=1.11 × 10−5 m.

the small-angle

approx. Using difraction formula with m = 1 gives:

mλ = d sin θ ≈ dθ →

∆λ ≈ d∆θ = =1.11 × 10^-5 m×0.001217 rad

=0.000000001351m

= 13.51 nm

According to the ph scale, which substance has the highest hydrogen ion concentration
Damm [24]

Answer:

C) stomach acid

Explanation:

D is wrong due to water have very little to hydrogen ion concentration. tomato juice has acids but it doesn't remove things like stomach acid. oven cleaner does remove some items, but not in a fast fashion like stomach acid. Stomach acid is extremely acidic and will melt about anything that comes in contact. burn is known for doing serious damage if it gets past the stomach lining.

A ceiling fan with 90-cm-diameter blades is turning at 64 rpm . Suppose the fan coasts to a stop 28 s after being turned off. Wh
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 16.889 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the ceiling fan, d = 90 cm = 0.9 m

angular speed of the fan, ω = 64 rpm

time taken for the fan to stop, t = 28 s

The distance traveled by the ceiling fan when it comes to a stop is calculated as;

d = vt = \omega r\times  t= ( \frac{64 \ rev}{\min} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{rev} \times \frac{1 \min}{60 \ s} \times 0.9 \ m) \times 28 \ s\\\\d = 168.89 \ m

The speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is calculated as;

v = \frac{d}{t} \\\\v = \frac{168.89}{10} \\\\v = 16.889 \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 16.889 m/s.

A 3.1 kg ball is dropped from the top of a 38 m tall building. What is the speed of the ball when it is halfway from the buildin
Archy [21]

Answer:

19.3m/s

Explanation:

Use third equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2gh

where v is the velocity at halfway, u is the initial velocity, g is gravity (9.81m/s^2) and h is the height at which you'd want to find the velocity

insert values to get answer

v^2-0^2=2(9.81m/s^2)(38/2)\\v^2=9.81m/s^2 *38\\v^2=372.78\\v=\sqrt[]{372.78} \\v=19.3m/s
