Answer:

1.3889 x 10¹¹ miles.

Explanation:

2 Years = 2 x 365 days = 730 days

2 years and 9 days = 739 days .

739 days = 739 x 24 = 17736 hours

2 years 9 days and 4.5 hours = 17736 + 4.5 = 17740.5 hours

17740.5 hours = 17740.5 x 60 x 60 = 63.865 x 10⁶ s

Distance travelled = velocity  x time

2174.799173 x 63.865 x 10⁶ = 1.3889 x 10¹¹ miles.

Yung's experiment is performed with light of wavelength 502 nm from excited helium atoms. Fringes are measured carefully on a sc
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

1.082 mm

Explanation:

From the question, we can see that we were given The following

Wavelength of the atoms, λ = 502 nm = 502*10^-9 m

Radius of the screen away from the double slit, r = 1.1 m

We know that Y(20) = 10.2 mm = 10.2*10^-3 m

d = (20 * R * λ) / Y(20)

d = (20 * 1.1 * 502*10^-9)/10.2*10^-3

d = 1.1*10^-5 / 10.2*10^-3

d = 1.082 mm

Therefore, we can say that the distance of separation between the two slits is 1.082 mm

A)
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Distance covered is equal to all the distance traveled.

So for example, if you go from A to B, and then from B to C, the total distance covered is AB + BC.

Displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position.

So if we go from A to B, the displacement is simply the line AB.

While if we go from A to B, and then from B to C, the displacement will be a segment that directly connects A and C, such that:

displacement = √( (AB)^2 + (BC)^2)

Now, if we want to find the points such that the magnitude of the distance covered is equal to the magnitude of the displacement, we need to look at the pairs that are directly connected by a straight line.

Those are:

A to B  ( or B to A)

B to C  (or C to B)

C to D  (or D to C)

Two circus performers rehearse a trick in which a ball and a dart collide. Horatio stands on a platform 9.8 m above the ground a
xenn [34]

Answer:

Time = 0.55 s

Height = 8.3 m

Explanation:

The ball is dropped and therefore has an initial velocity of 0. Its acceleration, g, is directed downward in the same direction as its displacement, h_b.

The dart is thrown up in which case acceleration, g, acts downward in an opposite direction to its displacement, h_d. Both collide after travelling for a time period, t. Let the height of the dart from the ground at collision be h_d and the distance travelled by the ball measured from the top be h_b.

It follows that h_d+h_b=9.8.

Applying the equation of motion to each body (h = v_0t + 0.5at^2),

Ball:

h_b=0\times t + 0.5\times 9.8t^2 (since v_{b0} =0.)

h_b=4.9t^2

Dart:

h_d=17.8\times t - 0.5\times9.8t^2 (the acceleration is opposite to the displacement, hence the negative sign)

h_d=17.8\times t - 4.9t^2

But

h_b+h_d =9.8

17.8\times t - 4.9t^2+4.9t^2 =9.8

17.8\times t = 9.8

t = 0.55

The height of the collision is the height of the dart above the ground, h_d.

h_d=17.8\times t - 4.9t^2

h_d=17.8\times 0.55 - 4.9\times(0.55)^2

h_d=9.79 - 1.48225

h_d=8.3
