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

Explain how an iron needle can become magnetized...

Yanka [14]

Answer:

If a piece of iron is brought near a permanent magnet, the electrons within the atoms in the iron orient their spins to match the magnetic field force produced by the permanent magnet, and the iron becomes “magnetized.”

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 2.15 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d = 0.0895 m fr

Igoryamba

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.15 kg

Distance = 0.0895 m

Amplitude = 0.0235 m

We need to calculate the spring constant

Using newton's second law

$F= mg$

Where, f = restoring force

$kx=mg$

$k=\dfrac{mg}{x}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{2.15\times9.8}{0.0895}$

$k=235.41\ N/m$

We need to calculate the kinetic energy of the mass

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Here, $v = A\omega$

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times(A\omega)^2$

Here, $\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2$

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times A^2\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2$

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2$

Put the value into the formula

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times235.41\times(0.0235)^2$

$K.E=0.06500\ J$

Hence, The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

How can you use distance and displacement to describe an object's motion

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

distance can describe the total distance moved and displacement shows how far something has moved from its starting position (in a straight line from point a to point b) the object doesn't have to move in a straight line, but that is how displacement is measured
