Answer:

We have learned that refraction occurs as light passes across the boundary between two media. Refraction is merely one of several possible boundary behaviors by which a light wave could behave when it encounters a new medium or an obstacle in its path.

The second minimum in the diffraction pattern of a 0.11-mm-wide slit occurs at 0.72°. What is the wavelength of the light?

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

691.13 nm

Explanation:

d = width of the slit = 0.11 x 10⁻³ m

θ = angle of diffraction pattern = 0.72° degree

λ = wavelength of the light = ?

m = order = 2 (since second minimum)

for the second minimum diffraction pattern we use the equation

d Sinθ = m λ

Inserting the values

(0.11 x 10⁻³) Sin0.72 = (2) λ

λ = 691.13 x 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 691.13 nm

How can you make your motor run in reverse? make sure to try it?

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

We are asked in what manner can one make the motor run in reverse. One way to do so is to flip the magnet on the other side so that the opposite charge faces to the motor. The magnetic field induced by the magnet to the motor results to a reactive force opposite to the induced motion.

A car is driving down the highway at a 50 m/s. Suddenly, the driver sees an accident and slams on his breaks, coming to a comple

vlada-n [284]

Given parameters:

Speed of the car = 50m/s

Time = 10s

Unknown:

Distance traveled before the car stopped = ?

We need to establish speed - time - distance relationship.

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. It is a scalar quantity .

Mathematically;

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Distance = speed x time

Input the parameters and solve;

Distance = 50 x 10 = 500m

The car traveled 500m before it stopped.

A torsion-bar spring consists of a prismatic bar, usually of round cross section, that is twisted at one end and held fast at th

ra1l [238]

Answer:

d₁ = 0.29 in

d₂ = 0.505 in

Explanation:

Given:

T = 1500 lbf in

L = 10 in

x = 0.5 L = 5 in

$T_{1} =\frac{T(L-x)}{L} =\frac{1500*(10-5)}{10} =750lbfin$

First case: T = T₁ + T₂

T₂ = T - T₁ = 1500 - 750 = 750 lbf in

If the shafts are in series:

θ = θ₁ + θ₂

θ = ((T₁ * L₁)/GJ) + ((T₂ * L₂)/GJ)

Second case: If d₁ ≠ d₂

θ = ((T₁ * L₁)/GJ₁) + ((T₂ * L₂)/GJ₂) = 0 (eq. 1)

t₁ = t₂

$\frac{16T_{1} }{\pi d_{1}^{3} } =\frac{16T_{2} }{\pi d_{2}^{3} }$ (eq. 2)

T₁ + T₂ = 1500 (eq. 3)

θ₁ first case = θ₁ second case

Replacing:

$\frac{750*5}{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*0.5^{4} } =\frac{T_{1}*3.7 }{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*d_{1} ^{4} }\\T_{1} =16216d_{1} ^{4}$

The same way to θ₂:

$\frac{750*5}{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*0.5^{4} } =\frac{T_{2}*6.3 }{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*d_{2} ^{4} } \\T_{2} =9523.8d_{2} ^{4}$

From equation 2, we have:

d₁ = 0.587 * d₂

From equation 3, we have:

d₂ = 0.505 in

d₁ = 0.29 in

netineya [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

All of the planets listed are classified as "Gas Giants" due to them being much larger than the terrestrial rocky planets. They are also strictly composed of gaseous elements such as nitrogen, hydrogen, methane, etc.. Both A and B are correct. I am unsure if you can choose more than one.
