How do scientists use inference?

1 answer:

5 0

Their inferences are based on evidence that they collect during their investigations. Readers learn that scientists gather and interpret evidence and draw conclusions based on this evidence. ... Once scientists have gathered evidence, they use it to make inferences about the things they are investigating.

Monochromatic light falls on a slit that is 2.30×10−3mm wide. Part A If the angle between the first dark fringes on either side

slava [35]

Answer:

Wavelength, $\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-6}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Width of the slit, $d=2.3\times 10^{-3}\ mm=2.3\times 10^{-6}\ m$

The angle between the first dark fringes on either side of the central maximum is 34 degrees

To find,

The wavelength of the light used.

Solution,

The equation of maxima is given by :

$dsin\theta=n\lambda$

n = 1 here

$\lambda=\dfrac{d\ sin\theta}{n}$

$\lambda={d\ sin\theta}$

$\lambda={2.3\times 10^{-6}\times sin(34)}$

$\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-6}\ m$

So, the wavelength of the light used is $1.28\times 10^{-6}\ m$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

When you strike two tuning forks simultaneously, you hear three beats per second. The frequency of the first tuning fork is 440

tekilochka [14]

Answer:4

Explanation:

Given

Frequency of beats is 3 beats per second

Frequency of first tuning fork is $f_1=440\ Hz$

Beat frequency is difference in the frequency of tuning forks i.e.

either $f_1-f_2$ or $f_2-f_1 =3$

so $f_2=3+440=443\ Hz$

$f_2=440-3=437\ Hz$

so there is not enough information given to decide.

Two particles with masses m and 3m are moving toward each other along the x axis with the same initial speeds Vi. Particle m is

nignag [31]

Answer:

$v1 = \sqrt{(2)}Vi$

$v2 = \sqrt{(2/3)}Vi$

ANGLE is 35.3 degree celcius

Explanation:

Given data:

mass m and 3m

initial speed Vi

particle with mass m is moving toward left while particle with mass 3m is moving toward right

By using conservation of momentum :

$mVi + 3m(-Vi) = mv1 +3mv2$

$-2mVi = m(v1 + 3v2)$

$-2Vi = v1 + 3v2$

conservation of energy :

$m(Vi^2) + 3m(-Vi^2) = mv1^2 + 3mv2^2$

$4mVi^2 = m(v1^2+3v2^2)$

$4Vi^2 = v1^2+3v2^2$

After collision, particle with mass m moves at right angles, thus by considering conservation of momentum in x & y direction,

x direction : $-2mVi = 3m.v2i$

$-2Vi = 3v2i$

y direction : $0 = m(v1)j+3m(v2)j$

$-v1j = 3v2j$

subsitute these value in energy conservation

$v1 = \sqrt{(2)}Vi$

$v2 = \sqrt{(2/3)}Vi$

$angle = tan^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{(2)}}{2}) =$ 35.3 degree from x-axis
