What is the force that opposes the movement of an object through water??

In air, you'd call it air resistance, pilots call it drag.  In water, some call it
water resistance, or just plain drag. 

Whatever it's called, it's the friction between the object and the fluid, plus
the force needed to push the fluid out of the way to let the object get through.

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

20 hertz of frequency produced.

Explanation:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{period} }

Here we will find frequency and period should be in second, here given: 0.05 seconds

using the formula:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{0.05} }

\boxed{frequency =20}

In a certain two slit diffraction experiment, two slits 0.02mm wide are spaced0.2mm between centers.(a) How many fringes appear
Kamila [148]

Answer:

a)   m = 10  and    b)  λ  = 3.119 10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

In the diffraction experiments the maximums appear due to the interference phenomenon modulated by the envelope of the diffraction phenomenon, for which to find the number of lines within the maximum diffraction center we must relate the equations of the two phenomena.

Interference equation      d sin θ = m λ

Diffraction equation         a sin θ = n λ

Where d is the width between slits (d = 0.2 mm), a is the width of each slit (a = 0.02 mm). θ is the angle, λ the wavelength, m and n  are an integer.

Let's find the relationship of these two equations

    d sin θ / a sin θ = m Lam / n Lam

The first maximum diffraction (envelope) occurs for n = 1, let's simplify

    d / a = m

Let's calculate

    m = 0.2 / 0.02

    m = 10

This means that 10 interference lines appear within the first maximum diffraction.

b) let's use the interference equation, remember that the angles must be given in radians

    θ = 0.17 ° (π rad / 180 °) = 2.97 10⁻³ rad

    d sin  θ = m λ

    λ = d sin θ / m

    λ = 0.2 10⁻³ sin (2.97 10⁻³) / 2

    λ  = 3.119 10⁻⁷ m
