Answer:
L = 1.15 m
Explanation:
The diffraction phenomenon is described by the equation
a sin θ = m λ
Where a is the width of the slit, λ the wavelength and m is an integer, the order of diffraction is left.
The diffraction measurements are made on a screen that is far from the slit, and the angles in the experiment are very small, let's use trigonometry
tan θ = y / L
tan θ = sint θ / cos θ≈ sin θ
We substitute in the first equation
a (y / L) = m λ
The first maximum occurs for m = 1
The distance is measured from the center point of maximum, which coincides with the center of the slit, in this case the distance is the total width of the central maximum, so the distance (y) measured from the center is
y = 1.15 / 2 = 0.575 cm
y = 0.575 10⁻² m
Let's clear the distance to the screen (L)
L = a y / λ
Let's calculate
L = 115 10⁻⁶ 0.575 10⁻² / 575 10⁻⁹
L = 1.15 m
Answer:
1.25kg
Explanation:
Simply multiply volume and density together
"Unbalanced forces" show themselves as a change in the speed
or direction of an object's motion.
The only choice where the speed or direction of motion is changing
is the car that's slowing down for the light.
Answer:
agree with student 2, disagree with student 1
Explanation:
If you want to know if the wavelength of light was shifted you have to know the original wavelengths
Since we know the absorption spectrum for elements like hydrogen, we can look for these absorption lines in the star's spectra and figure out what direction these lines are shifted and tell if the star is moving away or towards us
The color of the star refers to the temperature of the star's surface which is not related to the doppler shift of the star
