An electromagnetic wave is the oscillation of electric and magnetic fields that propagate in the space. Electromagnetic waves carry energy and they do not need a medium to propagate (they can travel in vacuum as well).
The correct relationship between the speed of the wave (speed of light, c), the frequency f and the wavelength \lambda is
f=  \frac{c}{ \lambda}

Light of wavelength 608.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 88.5 cm from the slit.
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.167 mm

Explanation:

Wavelength of light, \lambda=608\ nm=608\times 10^{-9}\ m

Distance from screen to slit, D = 88.5 cm = 0.885 m

The distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is 1.61 cm, y = 1.61 cm = 0.0161 m

We need to find the width of the slit. The formula for the distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is :

y=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{a}

where

a = width of the slit

a=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{y}

a=\dfrac{5\times 0.885\ m\times 608\times 10^{-9}\ m}{0.0161\ m}

a = 0.000167 m

a=1.67\times 10^{-4}\ m

a = 0.167 mm

So, the width of the slit is 0.167 mm. Hence, this is the required solution.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

8.75

Explanation:

First, find the force of friction.

Kinetic energy = work done by friction

½ mv² = Fd

½ (3.9 kg) (2.9 m/s)² = F (1.4 m)

F = 11.7 N

Next, find the distance at the new velocity.

Kinetic energy = work done by friction

½ mv² = Fd

½ (3.9 kg) (2.5 × 2.9 m/s)² = (11.7 N) d

d = 8.75 m
