Suppose you are observing the interference pattern formed by a Michelson interferometer in a laboratory and a joking colleague h

olds a lit match in the light path of one arm of the interferometer. Will this have an effect on the interference pattern
Physics

Troyanec [42]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

In Michelson interferometer , two light waves from different directions are made to overlap so that fringes are formed on the screen due to interference . In it,  two monochromatic and coherent light are made to overlap which have some path difference or phase difference. They form dark and bright fringes .

Now when a match stick is lit in the path of a wave , the fringes will disappear  and an general illumination will be observed on the screen as the light from the lit match stick will not be coherent . Incoherent light can not form stable fringes.

In a 200-turn automobile alternator, the magnetic flux in each turn is ΦB = 2.50 10-4 cos ωt, where ΦB is in webers, ω is the an
n200080 [17]

Answer:

10.63952sin(209.43951t)

10.63952 V

Explanation:

N_t = Number of turns = 200

\phi_B = Magnetic flux = 2.5\times 10^{-4}cos(\omega t)

\omega_e = Engine angular speed = 1\times 10^{3}\ rpm

Alternator angular speed is given by

N_a=2\times \omega_e\\\Rightarrow N_a=2\times 1\times 10^{3}\\\Rightarrow N_a=2\times 10^{3}\ rpm

\omega=N_a\dfrac{2\pi}{60}\\\Rightarrow \omega=2\times 10^{3}\dfrac{2\pi}{60}\\\Rightarrow \omega=209.43951\ rad/s

Induced emf is given by

\epsilon=-N_t\dfrac{d\phi_B}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=-200\dfrac{d}{dt}2.54\times 10^{-4}cos(209.43951 t)\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=200\times 2.54\times 10^{-4}\times 209.43951 sin(209.43951t)\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=10.63952sin(209.43951t)

The function is 10.63952sin(209.43951t)

The induced maximum emf is 10.63952 V

5. A ball rolls off a 1.5 m tall horizontal table and lands on the floor 0.70 m away.
pav-90 [236]

Take the starting position of the ball 1.5 m above the floor to be the origin. Then at time t, the ball's horizontal and vertical positions from the origin are

x = v₀ t

y = -1/2 gt²

where v₀ is the initial speed with which it rolls off the edge and g = 9.8 m/s².

A. The floor is 1.5 m below the origin, so we solve for t when y = -1.5 m :

-1.5 m = -1/2 gt²

⇒   t² = (3.0 m)/g

⇒   t = √((3.0 m)/g) ≈ 0.55 s

B. It would take the same amount of time.

C. The ball travels a horizontal distance of 0.70 m before reaching the floor, so we solve for v₀ with t = 0.55 s :

0.70 m = v₀ (0.55 s)

⇒   v₀ = (0.70 m) / (0.55 s) ≈ 1.3 m/s

D. At time t, the ball has horizontal and vertical velocity components

v[x] = 1.3 m/s

v[y] = -gt

so the horizontal component of the ball's final velocity vector is the same as the initial one, 1.3 m/s.

E. The vertical component of velocity would be

v[y] = -g (0.55 s) ≈ -5.4 m/s

F. The magnitude of the final velocity would be

√((1.3 m/s)² + (-5.4 m/s)²) ≈ 5.6 m/s

G. The final velocity vector makes an angle θ with the horizontal such that

tan(θ) = (-5.4 m/s) / (1.3 m/s)

⇒   θ = arctan(-5.4/1.3) ≈ -77°

i.e. approximately 77° below the horizontal.
