Answer:

he correct answers are a, b

Explanation:

In the two-slit interference phenomenon, the expression for interference is

          d sin θ= m λ                       constructive interference

          d sin θ = (m + ½) λ             destructive interference

in general this phenomenon occurs for small angles, for which we can write

           tanθ = y / L

           tan te = sin tea / cos tea = sin tea

           sin θ = y / La

un

derestimate the first two equations.

Let's do the calculation for constructive interference

         d y / L = m λ

the distance between maximum clos is and

         y = (me / d) λ

this is the position of each maximum, the distance between two consecutive maximums

         y₂-y₁ = (L   2/d) λ - (L 1 / d) λ₁          y₂ -y₁ = L / d λ

examining this equation if the wavelength decreases the value of y also decreases

the same calculation for destructive interference

         d y / L = (m + ½) κ

         y = [(m + ½) L / d] λ

again when it decreases the decrease the distance

the correct answers are a, b

A wheel that was initially spinning is accelerated at a constant angular acceleration of 5.0 rad/s^2. After 8.0 s, the wheel is
notka56 [123]

Answer:

a)  Initial angular speed = 30 rad/s

b) Final angular speed = 70 rad/s        

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

    Here s = 400 radians

              t = 8 s

              a = 5 rad/s²

    Substituting

             400 = u x 8 + 0.5 x 5 x 8²

              u = 30 rad/s

   Initial angular speed = 30 rad/s

b) We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Here u = 30 rad/s

               t = 8 s

              a = 5 rad/s²  

    Substituting

             v = 30 + 5 x 8 = 70 rad/s    

   Final angular speed = 70 rad/s

The movement of a magnetic pole away from the actual pole
Lunna [17]

The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole.

Why is it important for body cell to have twice and many chromosomes as sex cells?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Why sex cells only need half the number of chromosomes compared to other cells in the body?  As gametes are produced, the number of chromosomes must be reduced by half. Why? The zygote must contain genetic information from the mother and from the father, so the gametes must contain half of the chromosomes found in normal body cells.

What is happening in the diagram?
pishuonlain [190]
In the diagram, the ship send sound(?) waves to the water, to determine if there is anything there. If there is something like a sunken ship shown in the diagram, the waves return in a shorter time hence you can understand if theres something or now. This is the principle of radars and sonars.

1.A body of certain mass is kept at a height of 15m from the ground, taking the value of g as 10m/s find out the mass of the bod
ehidna [41]

Answer:

1.#potential energy = PE, m = mass in kg, g = force of gravity, h= vertical height above the ground.  ** means to the power of ie exponent. * means multiply.

PE = mgh

300 = m(10)(15)

m = 300/(10)(15)

m= 2kg

2. KE = 1/2 mv**2

     = 1/2(50)(50)**2

     = 2500 joules
