A diffraction grating with 1000 lines per mm is used in a spectrometer to measure the wavelengths of light emitted from a gas di

scharge tube. You measure the diffraction angle to be at 20° for one emission line. What would happen to this emission line’s diffraction angle if you replaced the diffraction grating with one having 500 lines per mm instead

Answer:

= 9.8°

Explanation:

Width of one slit (a₁ ) = 1 / 1000 mm=0.001 mm = 10⁻⁶ m.

width of one slit in case 2 (a₂ ) = 1/500 =2 x 10⁻⁶ m

angular position of fringe, Sinθ  = n λ /a

n is order of fringe , λ is wave length of light and a  is slit aperture

So Sinθ  ∝ 1 / a

Sin θ₁ /Sin θ₂ = a₂/a₁ ;

Sin20°/sinθ₂ = 2 / 1

sinθ₂ = Sin 20° / 2 = .342/2 = .171

θ₂ = 9.8 °

Radio waves travel at a speed of 300,000,000 m/s. WFNX broadcasts radio waves at a
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength, \lambda=2.94\ m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of radio waves is v=3\times 10^8\ m/s

Frequency of radio waves is f = 101,700,000 Hz

We need to find the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves. The relation between wavelength, frequency and speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda

\lambda is wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{101,700,000}\\\\\lambda=2.94\ m

So, the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves is 2.94 m.
