Answer:

λ = 8.716 mm

Explanation:

Given:

- d = 10 cm

- Q >= 5 degrees

Find:

- Find the shortest wavelength of light for which this apparatus is useful

Solution:

- The formula that relates the split difference and angle of separation between successive fringes is given by:

                                            d*sin(Q) = n*λ

Where,

λ: wavelength

d: split separation

Q: angle of separation between successive fringes

m: order number.

- Since this apparatus only shows the first order light so m =1

- the shortest possible wavelength corresponds to:

                                            d*sin(Q) = λ

                                            λ = 0.1*sin(5)

                                            λ = 8.716 mm

How is amplitude changed in an instrument or tuning fork
azamat

Amplitude is affected by the energy wave in the instrument. High energy wave means high amplitude and low energy wave means low amplitude.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change over a single period. There are various definitions of amplitude, which are all functions of the magnitude of the differences between the variable's extreme values.

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave. Amplitude of an instrument is directly affected by the wave of the energy in the instruments. High energy wave means high amplitude and low energy wave means low amplitude in the instrument.

Sloan [31]
A)Ep'=mgh=mgl(1-cosa).At the bottom of the swing Ep=0(reference level),so the potential energy as the child is just released is bigger than the potential energy at the bottom of the swing.;B)The speed of the child at the bottom of the swing-->v=√(2gh)=√[2gl(1-cosa)];C)I don't think that the tension does any work.

Two children who are bored while waiting for their flight at the airport decide to race from one end of the 20-m-long moving sid
QveST [7]

Answer: Phillipe wins the race

Explanation:

Given

Length of track=20 m

Velocity of Phillippe=2 m/s w.r.t sidewalk

Velocity of sidewalk=1.5 m/s

Rena velocity=2 m/s

Therefore absolute velocity of P is 2+1.5=3.5 m/s

Time taken by phillippe \frac{20}{3.5}+\frac{20}{3.5-1.5}

t_P=5.714+10=15.714 s

Time taken by rena

t_r=\frac{20}{2}+\frac{20}{2}=20 s

as the time taken  by phillippe is less than rena therefore Phillippe wins the race.
