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

two resistors of resistance 6 ohm and 3 ohm are connected in series and then in parallel .calculate the equivalent series resist
Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistors of resistance 6 ohm and 3 ohm are connected in series and then in parallel.

For series combination,

R_{eq}=R_1+R_2

For parallel combination,

\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}

When 6 ohm and 3 ohm are in series,

R_s=6+3\\\\R_s=9\ \Omega

When 6 ohm and 3 ohm are in paralle,

\dfrac{1}{R_p}=\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\R_p=2\ \Omega

So, the equivalent resistance in series combination is 9 ohms and in parallel combination it is 2 ohms.

Un tubo cilindrico hueco de cobre mide 3 m de longitud tienen un diametro exterior de 4cm y un diametro interior de 2 cm¿cuanto
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

 W = 9.93 10² N

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we must use the concept of density

           ρ = m / V

the tabulated density of copper is rho = 8966 kg / m³

let's find the volume of the cylindrical tube

           V = A L

           V = π (R_ext  ² - R_int ²) L

let's calculate

          V = π (4² - 2²) 10⁻⁴  3

          V = 1.13 10⁻²  m³

         m = ρ V

        m = 8966 1.13 10⁻²

        m = 1.01 10² kg

the weight of the tube

        W = mg

         W = 1.01 10² 9.8

         W = 9.93 10² N

The total resistance of the circuit <br>​
ZanzabumX [31]

The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of individual resistances. Voltage applied to a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops. The voltage drop across a resistor in a series circuit is directly proportional to the size of the resistor.

If you know the total current and the voltage across the whole circuit, you can find the total resistance using Ohm's Law: R = V / I. For example, a parallel circuit has a voltage of 9 volts and total current of 3 amps. The total resistance RT = 9 volts / 3 amps = 3 Ω

Current: The total circuit current is equal to the sum of the individual branch currents. Resistance: Individual resistances diminish to equal a smaller total resistance rather than add to make the total.

Can we use momentum to see how fast the earth is going?
Kisachek [45]

Yes, if we know the Earth's mass

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is a vector quantity given by the equation

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

In this case, we are asked if we can find the velocity of the Earth by starting from its momentum. Indeed, we can. In fact, we can rewrite the equation above as

v=\frac{p}{m}

Therefore, if we know the momentum of the Earth (p) and we know its mass as well (m), we can solve the formula to find the Earth's velocity.

How do smaller summer ice flores affect polar bears physically?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Bears lose necessary body fat because they must swim longer in open ocean water.

Explanation:

Polar bears, like their cousins, the grizzly bears, must build up a store of body fat that they can live off of during the winter months. This is especially true of mother bears who give birth to cubs during this time and need enough nourishment to feed the cubs.
