Answer:
These are Diffraction Grating Questions.
Q1. To determine the width of the slit in micrometers (μm), we will need to use the expression for distance along the screen from the center maximum to the nth minimum on one side:
Given as
y = nDλ/w Eqn 1
where
w = width of slit
D = distance to screen
λ = wavelength of light
n = order number
Making x the subject of the formula gives,
w = nDλ/y
Given
y = 0.0149 m
D = 0.555 m
λ = 588 x 10-9 m
and n = 3
w = 6.6x10⁻⁵m
Hence, the width of the slit w, in micrometers (μm) = 66μm
Q2. To determine the linear distance Δx, between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen
i.e we have to find the difference between distance along the screen (y₉-y₅) = Δx
Recall Eqn 1, y = nDλ/w
given, D = 27cm = 0.27m
λ = 632 x 10-9 m
w = 0.1mm = 1.0x10⁻⁴m
For the 9th order, n = 9,
y₉ = 9 x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.015m
Similarly, for n = 5,
y₅ = 5x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.0085m
Recall, Δx = (y₉-y₅) = 0.015 - 0.0085 = 0.0065m
Hence, the linear distance Δx between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen = 6.5mm
Answer:
To calculate the predicted surface elevation of a 50km thick crust above a surface of 2.5km we are given a density of 3 gram per centimeter cube.
The displacement of the material will be calculated by subtracting the surface elevation of 2.5 km from the 50 km thick crust. Therefore 50-25= 47.5 km.
Thus let the density of the material be Pm
50*3= 47.5*Pm
Therefore: Pm= (50*3)/47.5= 3.16gram per centimeter cube
Thus with an average density of 2.8gram per centimeter cube
50*2.8= (50-x)*3.16
(50-x)= (50*2.8)/3.16
50-x=44.3
x=50-44.3= 5.7

The answer is 36 kilometers per hour, or 10 meters per second.
Answer:
You can change the momentum of an object by giving the object more force or less force.
Explanation:
Think about a ball. It is going slow, you push it and you give it more momentum.
