Answer:

w=4.88*10^{-3}m\\or\\w=4.88mm

Explanation:

Given data

Diameter D=0.50 mm

Wavelength λ=500 nm

Length L=2.0 m

To find

Width w

Solution

Circular aperture of diameter D will have bright central maximum of diameter:

w=(2.44λL)/D

w=(\frac{2.44(500*10^{-9}m )(2.0m)}{0.50*10^{-3}m} )\\w=4.88*10^{-3}m\\or\\w=4.88mm

How is energy conserved in a transformation?
irina [24]
As the water plunges, its velocity increases. Its potential energy<span> becomes kinetic</span>energy<span>. The law of conservation of </span>energy<span> states that when one form of </span>energy<span> is</span>transformed<span> to another, no </span>energy<span> is destroyed in the process. ... So the total amount of </span>energy<span> is the same before and after any </span>transformation<span>.

The outer layer of cable on a cable reel is 16.2 cm from the center of the reel. The reel is initially stationary and can rotate
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. w=12.68rad/s

C. α=3.52rad/s^2

Explanation:

B)

We can solve this problem by taking into account that (as in the uniformly accelerated motion)

\theta=\omega_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}\\\theta = \frac{s}{r}      ( 1 )

where w0 is the initial angular speed, α is the angular acceleration, s is the arc length and r is the radius.

In this case s=3.7m, r=16.2cm=0.162m, t=3.6s and w0=0. Hence, by using the equations (1) we have

\theta=\frac{3.7m}{0.162m}=22.83rad

22.83rad=\frac{1}{2}\alpha (3.6s)^2\\\\\alpha=2\frac{(22.83rad)}{3.6^2s}=3.52\frac{rad}{s^2}

to calculate the angular speed w we can use\alpha=\frac{\omega _{f}-\omega _{i}}{t _{f}-t _{i}}\\\\\omega_{f}=\alpha t_{f}=(3.52\frac{rad}{s^2})(3.6)=12.68\frac{rad}{s}

Thus, wf=12.68rad/s

C) We can use our result in B)

\alpha=3.52\frac{rad}{s^2}

I hope this is useful for you

If 100 J of electrical energy enter the bulb and 5 J of light energy leave the bulb, how many joules of heat energy leave the bu
Novay_Z [31]

As per energy conservation we know that

Energy enter into the bulb = Light energy + Thermal energy

so now we have

energy enter into the bulb = 100 J

Light energy = 5 J

now from above equation we have

100 = 5 + heat

Heat = (100 - 5) J

Heat = 95 J
