A battery charges a parallel-plate capacitor fully and then is removed. The plates are immediately pulled apart. (With the batte
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<em>There will be an increase in potential difference.</em>

Explanation:

As we know that the potential difference depends upon the capacitance.

ΔV = Q/C

When battery is disconnected the charge remains constant on the plates but the capacitance decreases. As the capacitance has an inverse relation with the potential difference, there will be an increase in it.

In addition to that the potential difference can also be defined as the product of field and distance between the plates. As the charge is constant so the field is constant. Upon increasing the separation between the plates the potential difference will also increased.

Monochromatic light of wavelength 385 nm is incident on a narrow slit. On a screen 3.00 m away, the distance between the second
LiRa [457]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the concept of overlap and constructive interference.

For this purpose we have that the constructive interference in waves can be expressed under the function

a sin\theta = m\lambda

Where

a = Width of the slit

d = Distance of slit to screen

m = Number of order which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum

\theta = Angle between incident rays and scatter planes

At the same time the distance on the screen from the central point, would be

sin\theta = \frac{y}{d}

Where y = Represents the distance on the screen from the central point

PART A ) From the previous equation if we arrange to find the angle we have that

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

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{1.4*10^{-2}}{3})

\theta = 0.2673\°

PART B) Equation both equations we have

a sin\theta = m\lambda

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

Re-arrange to find a,

a = \frac{(2)(385*10^{-9})(3)}{(1.4*10^{-2})}

a = 1.65*10^{-4}m
