You perform a double‑slit experiment in order to measure the wavelength of the new laser that you received for your birthday. Yo

u set your slit spacing at 1.03 mm and place your screen 8.49 m from the slits. Then, you illuminate the slits with your new toy and find on the screen that the tenth bright fringe is 4.69 cm away from the central bright fringe (counted as the zeroth bright fringe). What is your laser's wavelength expressed in nanometers?

Answer:

\lambda = 6.25\times10^{-9}= 625 nm

Explanation:

We now that for

for maximum intensity(bright fringe) d sinθ=nλ n=0,1,2,....

d= distance between the slits, λ= wavelength of incident ray

for small θ, sinθ≈tanθ= y/D where y is the distance on screen and D is the distance b/w screen and slits.

Given

d=1.19 mm, y=4.97 cm,  and,   n=10,   D=9.47 m

applying formula

λ= (d*y)/(D*n)

putting values we get

\lambda = \frac{1.19\times10^{-3}\times4.97\times10^{-2}}{9.47\times10}

on solving we get

\lambda = 6.25\times10^{-9}= 625 nm

Two equal point charges QQQ are separated by a distance ddd. One of the charges is released and moves away from the other due on
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The kinetic energy K of the moving charge is K = 2kQ²/3d = 2Q²/(4πε)3d = Q²/6πεd

Explanation:

The potential energy due to two charges q₁ and q₂ at a distance d from each other is given by U = kq₁q₂/r.

Now, for the two charges q₁ = q₂ = Q separated by a distance d, the initial potential energy is U₁ = kQ²/d. The initial kinetic energy of the system K₁ = 0 since there is no motion of the charges initially. When the moving charge is at a distance of r = 3d, the potential energy of the system is U₂ = kQ²/3d and the kinetic energy is K₂.

From the law of conservation of energy, U₁ + K₁ = U₂ + K₂

So, kQ²/d + 0 = kQ²/3d + K

K₂ = kQ²/d - kQ²/3d = 2kQ²/3d

So, the kinetic energy K₂ of the moving charge is K₂ = 2kQ²/3d = 2Q²/(4πε)3d = Q²/6πεd

you throw a ball vertically so it leaves the ground withe velocity of 3.71m/s. what is its acceleration at this point
tino4ka555 [31]

No matter what direction you throw it, or with what speed, its acceleration is immediately 9.8 m/s^2 downward as soon as you release it from your hand, and it doesn't change until the ball hits something.

How is our magnetic field made?
Grace [21]

Answer:

On Earth, flowing of liquid metal in the outer core of the planet generates electric currents. The rotation of Earth on its axis causes these electric currents to form a magnetic field which extends around the planet. The magnetic field is extremely important to sustaining life on Earth.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!
