Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

Explanation:

From the Young's interference expression, we have;

(λ ÷ d) = (Δy ÷ D)

where λ is the wavelength of the light, D is the distance of the slit to the screen, d is the width of slit and Δy is the fringe separation.

Thus,

d = (Dλ) ÷ Δy

D = 3.30 m, Δy = 4.7 mm (0.0047 m) and λ = 563 nm (563 ×10^{-9} m)

d = (3.30 × 563 ×10^{-9} ) ÷ (0.0047)

  = 1.8579 × 10^{-6} ÷ 0.0047

  = 0.0003951 m

d = 0.00040 m

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum speed of 35.5 m/s. a) What is the coeff
postnew [5]

Answer:

The coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is <u>0.833</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the curve (R) = 150 m

Maximum speed of truck (v) = 35.5 m/s

Let the coefficient of friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck be "μ".

As the truck is moving around a circular curve. So, the force acting on it is centripetal force which acts in the radial inward direction towards the center of the circular curve.

The centripetal force acting on the truck is given as:

F_c=\frac{mv^2}{R}

Now, the friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is responsible for providing the necessary centripetal force. So, frictional force is equal to the centripetal force necessary for circular motion.

Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu N

Where, 'N' is the normal force. Since there is no vertical motion, the normal force is equal to weight of truck. So,

N=mg

Therefore, frictional force, f=\mu mg

Now, frictional force = centripetal force

f=F_c\\\\\mu mg=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\\mu = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

Plug in the given values and solve for 'μ'. This gives,

\mu=\frac{(35\ m/s)^2}{(150\ m)(9.8\ m/s^2)}\\\\\mu=\frac{1225\ m^2/s^2}{1470\ m^2/s^2}\\\\\mu=0.833

Therefore, the coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is 0.833

solong [7]

Answer: Erosion or water level rising

Explanation: Erosion happens when water goes against a rock and breaks it down little by little so these mountains may have once been above water but became eroded. Also, people might’ve added so much pollution into the ocean that the water level rose or there was an increase in the population of large animals. Sorry for my very long answer lol

The maximum number of orbits in an atom is _____
svp [43]

Correct answer is:

<h2>The maximum number of orbits in an atom is <u>Seven.</u></h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

Every energy level has a limited one orbital including two electrons. The orbits are settled in the sub-levels and there can be further than 1 sub-level as the number of energy levels rises. On energy level 1, there is 1 sub-level and 1 orbital. Energy level 2 can possess 2 sub-levels and 2 orbitals. These remain to develop as you progress from the nucleus of the atom, closing up with an infinite potential number of levels and orbits.
