How can the distance between the first bright band and the central band be increased in a double-slit experiment?

Answer:

Decrease the slit separation, increase the distance of the screen from the slits, and increase the wavelength.

Explanation:

The distance y from the central band to the first bright band is given by

y = \dfrac{ \lambda D}{d}

where \lambda is the wavelength of light (or any particle), D is the distance to the screen, and d is the slit separation.

From this equation we see that, by increasing the wavelength \lambda , increasing the distance from the screen D, and decreasing the slit separation d, we increase the distance between the first bright band and the central band.

Therefore, the 2nd choice "<em>Decrease the slit separation, increase the distance of the screen from the slits, and increase the wavelength.</em>" is correct.

Another way to test your question is to build your own miniature buildings. Depending on how in-depth you go, building could get a little pricey, but if you keep it basic there shouldn't be a problem. Decide on a certain number of foundations to test [maybe 3 or so] and try simulating an earthquake.

Why is the overall charge of the atom neutral or zero?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

this is because the neutrons do not have a charge, the things that have charge in an atom are electrons and protons.

and in the nucleus of an atom, there are protons and neutrons so you can see that A is not the answer

if you see the periodic table, you will know that the number of electrons and protons are equal, so the charges cancel each other out, hence the charge of an atom will be neutral

let me give you a tip which I got from my teacher, never write there is no charge in the atom, this suggests that there is no protons or electrons.

instead, write, the it is neutral

hope it helps if not please report it so that someone else gets to try it out

How is newton's first law used in basketball?
arlik [135]

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. This law appears in basketball when the player is shooting the ball. When the player is holding the ball, the ball is at rest but when a player shoots the ball, they use force to throw the ball in the hoop.
