Answer:
16916.4 V
Explanation:
Electric potential: This is the work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to that point in against the action of the field. The S.I unit of Electric potential is V.
mathematically, Electric potential can be expressed as
P = E×d ....................................... Equation 1.
Where P = Electric potential, E = Electric Field, d = distance/height of the level at the top of the Washington Monument.
Given: E = 100 V/m, d = 555 ft = 555×0.3048 m = 169.164 m.
Substitute into equation 1
P = 100×169.164
P = 16916.4 V.
Thus the potential difference = 16916.4 V.

We know upthrust on iron = weight of mercury displaced
To balance, the weight of iron = weight of mercury displaced . So
ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g
ρ₁V₁ = ρ₂V₂ where ρ₁ = density of iron = 7.2 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of iron = 10³ cm³ and ρ₂ = density of mercury = 13.6 g/cm³ and V₂ = volume of mercury displaced = ?
V₂ = ρ₁V₁/ρ₂ = 7.2 g/cm³ × 10³ cm³/13.6 g/cm³ = 529.4 cm³
So, the height of iron above the mercury is h = V₂/area of base iron block
= 529.4 cm³/10² cm² = 5.294 cm ≅ 5.3 cm
ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g

ρ₁V₁ = ρ₃V₃ where ρ₁ = density of iron = 7.2 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of iron = 10³ cm³ and ρ₃ = density of water = 1 g/cm³ and V₃ = volume of water displaced = ?
V₃ = ρ₁V₁/ρ₃ = 7.2 g/cm³ × 10³ cm³/1 g/cm³ = 7200 cm³
So, the height of column of water is h = V₃/area of base iron block
= 7200 cm³/10² cm² = 72 cm
Answer:
1.64 * 10^(-5) m
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Angular separation, θ = 0.018 rad
Wavelength, λ = 589 nm = 5.89 * 10^(-7) m
The angular separation when there are 2 slots is given as
θ = λ/2d
where d = separation between slits
d = λ/2θ
d = (589 * 10^(-9))/(2 * 0.018)
d = 1.64 * 10^(-5) m
