Answer:

0.01 rad

Explanation:

For a double-slit experiment, we have that dsinθ = nλ. The separation between the central maximum and an adjacent maximum is when n = 1

dsinθ = λ

The angular separation θ = sin⁻¹(λ/d)

now d = 100λ

θ = sin⁻¹(λ/100λ) = sin⁻¹(0.01) = 0.573°

θ = 0.573° × π/180 = 0.01 rad

GRAPH INCLUDED PLEASE HELP
swat32

Answer:

10 days

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioactive sample is the time taken for half of the sample to decay.

In the diagram, the half-life corresponds to the time after which the % of cobalt-57 has halved. We can observe the following:

At t=10 days, the % of Co remaining is approximately 45%

At t=20 days, the % of Co remaining is approximately 22%

This means that the sample of cobalt-57 has halved in 10 days, so the half-life of cobalt-57 is 10 days.

What would be the net force and in what direction for the motion to be? The first one* and explain
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

11. 5 N to the left.

12. 10 N to the right.

Explanation:

11. Determination of the net force.

Force in the left direction (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force in the right direction (Fᵣ) = 5 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

The net force can be obtained as follow:

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ (Since the forces act in opposite direction)

Fₙ = 10 – 5

Fₙ = 5 N to left

Thus, the net force is 5 N to the left.

12. Determination of the net force.

Force in the right direction 1 (Fᵣ₁) = 5 N

Force in the right direction 2 (Fᵣ₂) = 5 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

The net force can be obtained as follow:

Fₙ = Fᵣ₁ + Fᵣ₂ (Since the forces act in the same direction)

Fₙ = 5 + 5

Fₙ = 10 N to the right

Thus, the net force is 10 N to the right.
