Answer:

Red light has longer wavelength, while blue light has higher frequency

Explanation:

Red light and blue light corresponds to two different portion of the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

The two colors have different wavelengths - more precisely:

Blue: 450 - 500 nm

Red: 620 - 750 nm

So, we see that red light has a longer wavelength than blue light.

Moreover, the frequency of an electromagnetic wave, f, is inversely proportional to the wavelength, $\lambda$ :

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

where c is the speed of light. This means that blue light, which has a shorter wavelength, has a higher frequency than red light.

2. Suppose that a parallel-plate capacitor has circular plates with radius R = 30 mm and a plate separation of d = 5.0 mm. Suppo

seropon [69]

Answer:

The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is $2.901\times10^{-13}\ T$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of plate = 30 mm

Separation = 5.0 mm

Frequency = 60 Hz

Suppose the maximum potential difference is 100 V and r= 130 mm.

We need to calculate the angular frequency

Using formula of angular frequency

$\omega=2\pi f$

Put the value into the formula

$\omega=2\times\pi\times60$

$\omega=376.9\ rad/s$

When r>R, the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the r.

We need to calculate the maximum value of the induced magnetic field that occurs at r = R

Using formula of magnetic filed

$B_{max}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}\epsilon_{0}R^2\timesV_{max}\times\omega}{2rd}$

Where, R = radius of plate

d = plate separation

V = voltage

Put the value into the formula

$B_{max}=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(30\times10^{-3})^2\times100\times376.9}{2\times130\times10^{-3}\times5.0\times10^{-3}}$

$B_{max}=2.901\times10^{-13}\ T$

Hence, The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is $2.901\times10^{-13}\ T$ .

Coherent light of frequency 6.37×1014 Hz passes through two thin slits and falls on a screen 88.0 cm away. You observe that the

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The distance between the two slits is 40.11 μm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency $f= 6.37\times10^{14}\ Hz$

Distance of the screen l = 88.0 cm

Position of the third order y =3.10 cm

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

where, c = speed of light

f = frequency

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{6.37\times10^{14}}$

$\lambda=471\ nm$

We need to calculate the distance between the two slits

$m\times \lambda=d\sin\theta$

$d =\dfrac{m\times\lambda}{\sin\theta}$

Where, m = number of fringe

d = distance between the two slits

Here, $\sin\theta =\dfrac{y}{l}$

Put the value into the formula

$d=\dfrac{3\times471\times10^{-9}\times88.0\times10^{-2}}{3.10\times10^{-2}}$

$d=40.11\times10^{-6}\ m$

$d = 40.11\ \mu m$

Hence, The distance between the two slits is 40.11 μm.
