Light of wavelength 623.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 76.5 cm from the slit.

The distance on the screen between the second order minimum and the central maximum is 1.11 cm . What is the width a of the slit in micrometers (μm)?

Answer:

Explanation:

wave length of light λ = 623 x 10⁻⁹ m .

Distance of screen D = 76.5 x 10⁻² m

width of slit        =      d

Distance on the screen between the second order minimum and the central maximum       =  2  λ D / d

1.11 x 10⁻²  = (2 x 623 x 10⁻⁹ x 76.5 x 10⁻² )/ d

d =  ( 2 x 623 x 10⁻⁹ x 76.5 x 10⁻²) / 1.11 x 10⁻²

= 85872.97 x  10⁻⁹

=  85.87297 x  10⁻⁶

= 85.87 μm

width a of the slit is = 85.87 μm

A convex lens of focal length 35 cm produces a magnified image 2.5 times the size of the object. What is the object distance if
Zanzabum

Answer:

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 35

m = Magnification = 2.5

m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow 2.5=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow v=-2.5 u

Lens equation

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-2.5u}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{3}{5u}\\\Rightarrow u=21\ cm

v=-2.5\times 21=-52.5\ cm

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

An ice skater has a moment of inertia of 5.0 kgm2 when her arms are outstretched. at this time she is spinning at 3.0 revolution
givi [52]
With arms outstretched,
Moment of inertia is I = 5.0 kg-m².
Rotational speed is ω = (3 rev/s)*(2π rad/rev) = 6π rad/s
The torque required is
T = Iω = (5.0 kg-m²)*(6π rad/s) = 30π 

Assume that the same torque drives the rotational motion at a moment of inertia of 2.0 kg-m².
If u = new rotational speed (rad/s), then
T = 2u = 30π
u = 15π rad/s
   = (15π rad/s)*(1 rev/2π rad)
   = 7.5 rev/s

Answer: 7.5  revolutions per second.

it takes 560s for a runner to complete one circular lap, moving at a speed of 6.00 m/s. what is the radius of a track?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

534.8 meters

Explanation:

Use T=(2*pi*r)/v

560=(2*pi*r)/6

3360=2*pi*r

1680=pi*r

534.8 meters=radius
