with a beam of the same monochromatic light. Which grating produces the greater separation of colors?
a. The grating with 3000 lines produces the greater dispersion.
b. The grating with 6000 lines produces the greater dispersion.
c. Both gratings produce the same dispersion.

Answer:

Option B, The grating with 6000 lines produces the greater dispersion

Explanation:

The diffraction ability of the grating is equal to the angular dispersion which depends on the dispersion angle.  

As per the equation  

\frac{dD}{d\lambda} = \frac{m}{a cos D}

where

\frac{dD}{d\lambda} represent the angular dispersion, m represents the order, a represent the spacing of the lines with in the grit and D represents the diffraction angle.

As per the equation, angular dispersion is inversely proportional to the number of lines (grit line spacing). Thus, the spacing should be minimum to produce greater angular dispersion.

Hence, option B is correct

If gas costs $3.65 per gallon at a local service station, how many cubic feet of gas can a customer buy with $40 ?
svet-max [94.6K]
Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly. 

For consistency you must convert gallons to cubic foot. The conversions are:

7.481 gal = 1 ft3

Then, $3.65 per gallon becomes $27.3 per ft3. If you buy $40 worth of gas, you get $40/$27.3 = 1.46 ft3 of gas. 

If you can travel for 4 miles per ft3, then with the amount of gas you have, you can travel up to 5.85 miles.

(4 miles/ft3)*(1.46 ft3) = 5.85 miles

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

\frac{3}{16\pi}in/sec

Explanation:

We are given that

\frac{dv}{dt}=3in^3/s

r=2 in when t=4 s

We have to find the rate of change of radius.

We know that

Volume of sphere=V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Differentiate w.r.t t

\frac{dV}{dt}=4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}

Substitute the values

3=4\pi(2)^2\times \frac{dr}{dt}

\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{3}{4\pi(2)^2}

\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{3}{16\pi}in/sec
