Answer: A = y/cos32

That is the amplitude A in terms of the displacement y.

Explanation: Since the displacement in the question In the question is the same in both direction, it is a Simple Harmonic Motion problem. In s.h.m the amplitude of displacement A is related to the displacement itself y by this simple equation

y = A* cos(theta)

So, A = y/cos(theta)

A = y/cos32.

If the magnitude of the displacement y is given, you just substitute in.

A single-slit diffraction pattern is formed by monochromatic electromagnetic radiation from a distant source passing through a s
tatiyna

Answer:

a. λ = 647.2 nm

b. I₀  9.36 x 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Given:

β = 56.0 rad , θ = 3.09 ° , γ = 0.170 mm = 0.170 x 10⁻³ m

a.

The wavelength of the radiation can be find using

β = 2 π / γ * sin θ

λ = [ 2π * γ * sin θ ] / β

λ = [ 2π * 0.107 x 10⁻³m * sin (3.09°) ] / 56.0 rad

λ = 647.14 x 10⁻⁹ m  ⇒  λ = 647.2 nm

b.

The intensity of the central maximum I₀

I = I₀ (4 / β² ) * sin ( β / 2)²

I = I₀ (4 / 56.0²) * [ sin (56.0 /2) ]²

I = I₀  9.36 x 10⁻⁵

Meter #1 can measure voltage to within 0.1 volts. Meter #2 can measure voltage to within 0.01 volts.
Ann [662]

Meter #2 is more precise.

There's no information here that tells us which meter is more accurate.

If the mass of the object is doubled and the speed is halved then kinetic energy will change by a factor of:
madam [21]

Answer:

kinetic energy will change by a factor of 1/2

Option C) 1/2 is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that;

Kinetic energy = 1/2.mv²

given that mass of the object is doubled; m1 = 2m

speed is halved; v1 = V/2

Now, New kinetic energy will be; 1/2.m1v1²

we substitute

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × 2m × (v/2)²

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × 2m × (v²/4)

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × m × (v²/2)

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 [ 1/2mv² ]

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 [ KE ]

Therefore; kinetic energy will change by a factor of 1/2

Option C) 1/2 is the correct answer
