Answer:

Nicolaus Copernicus  (Mathematician)

Explanation:

Copernicus (1473-1543) was not the first person to claim that the Earth rotates around the Sun. In Western civilization, ancient Greek astronomer Aristarchus of Samos is generally credited with being the first person to propose a Sun-centred astronomical hypothesis of the universe (heliocentric).

Suppose you wish to fabricate a uniform wire out of 1.10 g of copper. If the wire is to have a resistance R = 0.390 Ω, and if al
Citrus2011 [14]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to volume, as a function of length and area, as of mass and density. Later we will take the same concept of resistance and resistivity, equal to the length per unit area. Once obtained from the known constants it will be possible to obtain the area by matching the two equations:

Mass of copper wire(m) = 1.10g = 1.10*10^{-3} kg

Density (\rho)= 8.92*10^3kg/m^3

Resistively of copper (\gamma) = 1.7*10^{-8}\Omega \cdot m

Resistance (R) = 0.390\Omega

Volume is defined as,

V= lA \text{ and }\frac{m}{\rho}

lA= \frac{1.10*10^{-3}}{8.92*10^3}

lA = 1.233*10^{-7} m^3 (1)

We know that,

\frac{l}{A} = \frac{R}{\gamma}

\frac{l}{A}= \frac{0.390\Omega}{1.7*10^{-8}\Omega m}

\frac{l}{A} = 2.2941*10^7 m^{-1} (2)

Multiplying equation we have

l^2 = (1.233*10^{-7})( 2.2941*10^7)

l^2 = 2.8286m^2

l =\sqrt{2.8286m^2}

l = 1.68m

Therefore the length of the wire is 1.68m

Light of wavelength 480 nm illuminates a pair of slits separated by 0.27 mm. If a screen is place 1.7 m from the slits, determin
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

  Δy = 6.05 mm

Explanation:

The double slit phenomenon is described by the expression

      d sin θ = m λ                constructive interference

      d sin θ = (m + ½) λ       destructive interference

      m = 0,±1, ±2, ...

As they tell us that they measure the dark stripes, we are in a case of destructive interference, let's use trigonometry to find the sins tea

      tan θ = y / x

      y = x tan θ

In the interference experiments the measured angle is very small so we can approximate the tangent

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

     cos θ = 1

     tan θ = sin θ

     y = x sin θ

We substitute in the destructive interference equation

     d (y / x) = (m + ½) λ

    y = (m + ½) λ x / d

The first dark strip occurs for m = 0 and the third dark strip for m = 2. Let's find the distance for these and subtract it

 m = 0

      y₀ = (0+ ½) 480 10⁻⁹ 1.7 / 0.27 10⁻³

      y₀ = 1.511 10⁻³ m

 m = 2

     y₂ = (2 + ½) 480 10⁻⁹ 1.7 / 0.27 10⁻³

     y₂ = 7.556 10⁻³ m

The separation between these strips is Δy

     Δy = y₂-y₀

     Δy = (7.556 - 1.511) 10⁻³

     Δy = 6.045 10⁻³ m

     Δy = 6.05 mm
