The force exerted by a magnetic field of intensity B on a wire of length L is:
F=ILB \sin \theta
where I is the current in the wire and \theta is the angle between the wire and the direction of B.
In our problem, the length of the wire is L=260 m, the current is I=115 A, the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field is B=5.0 \cdot 10^{-5}T and the angle between the wire and B is 80^{\circ}, and by substituting these numbers in the previous expression we can find the magnitude of the force:
F=(115 A)(260 m)(5.0 \cdot 10^{-5}T)(\sin 80^{\circ})=1.48 N

A laser beam of wavelength λ=632.8 nm shines at normal incidence on the reflective side of a compact disc. The tracks of tiny pi
Juliette [100K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts given by the principles of superposition, specifically those described by Bragg's law in constructive interference.

Mathematically this relationship is given as

dsin\theta = n\lambda

Where,

d = Distance between slits

\lambda = Wavelength

n = Any integer which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum

\theta = sin^{-1} (\frac{n\lambda}{d})

Calculating the value for n, we have

n = 1

\theta_1 = sin^{-1} (\frac{\lambda}{d})\\\theta_1 = sin^{-1} (\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_1 = 23.3\°

n=2

\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (\frac{2\lambda}{d})\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (2\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_2 = 52.28\°

n =3

\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (\frac{2\lambda}{d})\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (3\frac{632.8*10^{-9}}{1.6*10^{-6}})\\\theta_2 = \text{not possible}

Therefore the intensity of light be maximum for angles 23.3° and 52.28°

You throw a baseball a distance of 20 meters. Is it work or not work?
OverLord2011 [107]
Yes it is work because when you throw a ball, you transfer energy to it and it moves.

Do radio waves travel at the speed of sound
adell [148]

Sound travels at approximately 1,100 feet per second (766 miles per hour). Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 186,000 miles per second. This means that in the time radio waves travel the length of a football field, light can travel further than all the way around the world.
