Answer:

a)d=2.1\times10^-3

b)\theta=0.015^\circ

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Distance between the first and fifth minima = 0.4\ nm
  • Distance of screen from the slit D = 0.37\ m
  • Wavelength of the light \lambda = 570\ \rm nm

Let d be the width of the slit

a)

\dfrac{5\lambda D}{d}-\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}=0.4\times10^{-3}\\\dfrac{4\times570\times10^{-9}\times0.37}{d}=0.4\times10^{-3}\\d=2.1\times 10^{-3}\ \rm m

b)we know that

\tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{D}\\\tan\theta=\dfrac{\lambda}{d}\\\tan\theta=\dfrac{570\times10^{-9}}{2.1\times10^{-3}}\\\theta=0.015^\circ

Briefly describe the characteristics of each soil horizon from the top layer to the bottom layer
inna [77]
<span>There is six horizen. 1. O Horizon - The top, organic layer of soil, 2. A Horizon - The layer called topsoil; 3. E Horizon - This layer is beneath the A Horizon and above the B Horizon. It is made up mostly of sand. 4. B Horizon - Also called the subsoil - this layer is beneath the E Horizon and above the C Horizon. 5. C Horizon - it's called regolith: the layer beneath the B Horizon and above the R Horizon. 6 R Horizon - this is last and the unweathered rock layer that is beneath all the other layers.</span>

A weight lifter is trying to do a bicep curl with a weight of 300 N. At the "sticking point", the moment arm of this weight is 3
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The weight lifter would not get past this sticking point.

Explanation:

Generally torque applied on the weight is mathematically represented as

             T =  F z

To obtain Elbow torque we substitute 4000 N for F (the force ) and 2cm = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02m for z the perpendicular distance

So Elbow Torque is   T_e= 4000 * 0.02

                                   = 80Nm

 To obtain the torque required we substitute 300 N for F and 30cm =\frac{30}{100} = 0.3 m

  So the Required Torque is T_R = 300 *0.3

                                                     =90Nm

Now since   T_e < T_R it mean that the weight lifter would not get past this sticking point

A 0.3-kg object connected to a light spring with a force constant of 19.3 N/m oscillates on a frictionless horizontal surface. A
Ghella [55]

The total work <em>W</em> done by the spring on the object as it pushes the object from 6 cm from equilibrium to 1.9 cm from equilibrium is

<em>W</em> = 1/2 (19.3 N/m) ((0.060 m)² - (0.019 m)²) ≈ 0.031 J

That is,

• the spring would perform 1/2 (19.3 N/m) (0.060 m)² ≈ 0.035 J by pushing the object from the 6 cm position to the equilibrium point

• the spring would perform 1/2 (19.3 N/m) (0.019 m)² ≈ 0.0035 J by pushing the object from the 1.9 cm position to equilbrium

so the work done in pushing the object from the 6 cm position to the 1.9 cm position is the difference between these.

By the work-energy theorem,

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em> = <em>K</em>

where <em>K</em> is the kinetic energy of the object at the 1.9 cm position. Initial kinetic energy is zero because the object starts at rest. So

<em>W</em> = 1/2 <em>mv</em> ²

where <em>m</em> is the mass of the object and <em>v</em> is the speed you want to find. Solving for <em>v</em>, you get

<em>v</em> = √(2<em>W</em>/<em>m</em>) ≈ 0.46 m/s
