Answer:

The intensity at 10° from the center is 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

Explanation:

The intensity of light I = I₀(sinα/α)² where α = πasinθ/λ

I₀ = maximum intensity of light

a = slit width = 2.0 μm = 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ m

θ = angle at intensity point = 10°

λ = wavelength of light = 650 nm = 650 × 10⁻⁹ m

α = πasinθ/λ

= π(2.0 × 10⁻⁶ m)sin10°/650 × 10⁻⁹ m

= 1.0911/650 × 10³

= 0.001679 × 10³

= 1.679

Now, the intensity I is

I = I₀(sinα/α)²

= I₀(sin1.679/1.679)²

= I₀(0.0293/1.679)²

= 0.0175²I₀

= 0.0003063I₀

= 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

So, the intensity at 10° from the center is 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

How are magnetic poles and electrical charges similar? A. Their same forces repel each other, and their opposite forces attract
melomori [17]

Answer:

A. Their same forces repel each other, and their opposite forces attract each other.

Explanation:

As we know by the property of electric charge that similar charges repel each other and opposite charges attracts each other

So here we have similar situation in magnets also

Two similar poles or like poles of magnet i.e. North - North poles or South - South poles always repel each other

And also we can see that opposite poles of magnet each other i.e. North pole and south pole always attract each other.

SO here correct answer is

A. Their same forces repel each other, and their opposite forces attract each other.

Tpy6a [65]
Hello
It is called lightning. Lightning in a storm occurs when there are two regions (it can be cloud-cloud or cloud-ground), one with a strong excess of positive charges and the other one with a strong excess of negative charges. The two types of charge attract each other, and then a sudden flow of charges from one region to the other occurs, which is called lightning.
