Answer:

a) laser 1 has the maximum closest to the central maximum

b) y₂ –y₁ = L 1.66 10⁻²

Explanation:

a), B1, B2)  The expression that describes the constructive interference for a double slit is

            d sin θ = m λ

The pattern is observed on a screen

            tan θ = y / L

Since the angles are very small

           tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ = y/L

 

           d y / L = m λ  

In this case the laser has a wavelength

           λ ₁ = d/20

We substitute

            d y / L = m d / 20

            m = 1

            y₁ = L / 20

For the laser 2 λ ₂= d / 15

             y₂ = L / 15

When examining the two expressions, laser 1 has the maximum closest to the central maximum

b) the difference between the two patterns is

            y₂- y₁ = L (1/15 - 1/20)

           y₂ –y₁ = L 1.66 10⁻²

C) laser 1 second maximum

          y₁ ’= 2 L / 20

          y₁ ’= L 0.1

Laser 2 third minimum

To have a minimum, the equation must be satisfied

           d sin θ = (m + ½) λ  

           d y / L = (m + ½) λ  

           d y / L = (m + ½) d / 15

           y = L (m +1/2) / 15

           m = 3

           y₂’= L (3 + ½) / 15

           y₂’= L 0.2333

The difference is

           y₁ ’- y₂’ = L (0.1 - 0.2333)

          y₁ ’–y₂’ = L (-0.133)

17 copper wires of length l and diameter d are connected in parallel to form a single composite conductor of resistance R. What
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

\frac{D}{d} = 4.12

Explanation:

As we know that resistance of one copper wire is given as

r = \rho \frac{L}{a}

here we know that

a = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^2

now we have

r = \rho \frac{L}{\pi (\frac{d^2}{4})}

r = \rho \frac{4L}{\pi d^2}

now we know that such 17 resistors are connected in parallel so we have

R = \frac{r}{17}

R = \rho \frac{4L}{17 \pi d^2}

Now if a single copper wire has same resistance then its diameter is D and it is given as

R = \rho \frac{4L}{\pi D^2}

now from above two equations we have

\rho \frac{4L}{\pi D^2} = \rho \frac{4L}{17 \pi d^2}

D^2 = 17 d^2

now we have

\frac{D}{d} = 4.12
