Answer:

Part a)

f = 4.76 \times 10^{14} Hz

Part b)

d = 3.48 \times 10^{-4} m

Part c)

\theta = 0.311 degree

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the speed of light is given as

c = 3 \times 10^8 m/s

\lambda = 630 nm

now the frequency of the light is given as

f = \frac{c}{\lambda}

so we have

f = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{630 \times 10^{-9}}

f = 4.76 \times 10^{14} Hz

Part b)

Position of Nth maximum intensity on the screen is given as

y_n = \frac{n\lambda L}{d}

so here we know for 3rd order maximum intensity

y_3 = 0.76 cm

n = 3

L = 1.4 m

0.76 \times 10^{-2} = \frac{3(630 \times 10^{-9})(1.4)}{d}

d = 3.48 \times 10^{-4} m

Part c)

angle of third order maximum is given as

d sin\theta = 3 \lambda

3.48 \times 10^{-4} sin\theta = 3(630 \times 10^{-9})

\theta = 0.311 degree

A bottle lying on the windowsill falls off and takes 4.95 seconds to reach the ground. The distance from the windowsill to the g
Liula [17]
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is 
                        D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²) 
           Distance  =  (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)

We want to see how the time will be affected 
if  ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does. 
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.                                                      D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²)

Multiply each side by  2 :         2 D  =            g    t²  

Divide each side by ' g ' :      2 D/g =                  t² 

Square root each side:        t = √ (2D/g)

Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:

  -- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'

                                             and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .-- 

They don't change by the same factor, because  1/g  is inside the square root.  So 't' changes the same amount as  √1/g  does.

Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly  1/6  the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.

So we expect ' t ' to increase by  √6  =  2.45 times.

It would take the same bottle  (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.

Based on relative bond strengths, classify these reactions as endothermic (energy absorbed) or exothermic (energy released)
cluponka [151]
<span>Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy. This reaction releases heat energy or light . In an endotermic reaction energy is used. Enthaply is the heat energy change , delta H. If the sum of the enthalpies of the reactans is greater than the products the reaction is exothermic. If the products side has a larger enthaply than the process is endothermic. So, if delta H is negative then the process is exothermic. If delta H is positive, than the process is endothermic. Exothermic are: A+BC -> AB+C A2+B2 -> 2AB Endothermic are:AB+C -> AC+B A2 + C2 -> 2AC B2+C2 -> 2BC</span>

A small mirror is attached to a vertical wall, and it hangs a distance of 1.87 m above the floor. The mirror is facing due east,
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

 t = 1.62 h

Explanation:

A flat mirror fulfills the law of reflection where the incident angle is equal to the reflected angle.

          θ_i = θ_r

If we use trigonometry to find the angles, the mirror is at a height of L = 1.87 m,   and the reflected rays reach a distance x1 = 3.56 m

         tan θ₁ = x₁ / L

         tan θ₁ = \frac{3.56}{1.87}

         θ₁ = tan⁻¹  1.90

         θ₁ = 62.29º

for the second case x₂ = 1.46 m

        tan θ₂ = x₂ / L

        θ₂ = tan⁻¹  \frac{1.46}{1.87}

        θ₂ = 37.98º

the difference in degree traveled is

         Δθ = θ₁- θ₂

          Δθ = 62.29 - 37.98

          Δθ = 24.31º

as in the exercise they indicate that every 15º there is an hour

         t = 24.31º (1h / 15º)

         t = 1.62 h
