Although we have discussed single-slit diffraction only for a slit, a similar result holds when light bends around a straight, t

user100 [1]

Answer:

The width of the strand of hair is 1.96 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For this diffraction problem they tell us that it is equivalent to the diffraction of a single slit, which is explained by the equation

Where the different temrs are: “a” the width of the hair, λ the wavelength, θ the angle from the center, m the order of diffraction, which is the number of bright rings (constructive diffraction)

We can see that the diffraction angle is missing, but we can find it by trigonometry, where L is the distance of the strand of hair to the observation screen and "y" is the perpendicular distance to the first minimum of intensity

L = 1.25 m 100 cm/1m = 125 cm

y = 5.06 cm

Tan θ = y/L

Tan θ = 5.06/125

θ = tan⁻¹ ( 0.0405)

θ = 2.32º

With this data we can continue analyzing the problem, they indicate that they measure the distance to the first dark strip, thus m = 1

a = m λ / sin θ

a = 1 633 10⁻⁹ 1.25/sin 2.3

a = 1.96 10⁻⁵ m

a = 0.0196 mm

The width of the strand of hair is 1.96 10⁻⁵ m

Foraging bees often move in straight lines away from and toward their hives. Suppose a bee starts at its hive and flies 680 m du

lys-0071 [83]

Represent the motion in the number line.

Movement to the east is movement to the negative side. Movement to the west is movement to the positive side.

Total displacement = -680m + 430m - 620m = -870m

Total displacement = 860m to the east.

A 200 kg weather rocket is loaded with 100 kg of fuel and fired straight up. It accelerates upward at 35 m/s2 for 35 s , then ru

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

T = 295.57 s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the rocket = 200 Kg

mass of the fuel = 100 Kg

acceleration = 35 m/s²

time, t = 35 s

time taken by the rocket to hit the ground, = ?

Final speed of the rocket when fuel is empty

using equation of motion

v = u + a t

v = 0 + 35 x 35

v = 1225 m/s

height of the rocket where fuel is empty

v² = u² + 2 a s

1225² = 0 + 2 x 35 x h₁

h₁ = 21437.5 m

After 35 s the rocket will be moving upward till the final velocity becomes zero.

Now, using equation of motion to find the height after 35 s

v² = u² + 2 g h₂

0² = 1225² + 2 x (-9.8) h₂

h₂ = 76562.5 m

total height = h₁ + h₂

= 76562.5 m + 21437.5 m = 98000 m

now, time taken by before the rocket hit the ground

using equation of motion

$s = u t +\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

$-13500 = 1225 t -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times t^2$

negative sign is used because the distance travel by the rocket is downward.

4.9 t² - 1225 t - 13500 = 0

$t = \dfrac{-(-1225)\pm \sqrt{1225^2 - 4\times 4.9 \times (-13500)}}{2\times 4.9}$

t = 260.57 s

neglecting the negative sign

total time the rocket was in air

T = t₁ + t₂

T = 35 + 260.57

T = 295.57 s

Time for which rocket was in air is equal to 295.57 s.

At a point 1.2 m out from the hinge, 14.0 N force is exerted at an angle of 27 degrees to the moment arm in a plane which is per

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

$\tau = 7.63 Nm$

Explanation:

As we know that moment of force is given as

$\tau = \vec r \times \vec F$

now we have

$\vec r = 1.2 m$

$\vec F = 14 N$

now from above formula we have

$\tau = r F sin\theta$

here we know that

$\theta = 27 degree$

so we have

$\tau = (1.2)(14) sin27$

$\tau = 7.63 Nm$
