It is supernova! :D

A supernova is an astronomical concussion that momentarily surpasses the whole universe, emitting as many energy since the Day-Star(sun) practically any normal star is supposed to release across its whole lifespan, before it disappears from appearance over some weeks or periods.

One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a s
baherus [9]

Given that,

Central maximum = 1 cm

Distance from the window shade to the wall =4 m

We know that,

The visible range of the sun light is 400 nm to 700 nm.

(a). We need to calculate the average wavelength

Using formula of average wavelength

\lambda_{avg}=\dfrac{\lambda_{1}+\lambda_{2}}{2}

Put the value into the formula

\lambda_{avg}=\dfrac{400+700}{2}

\lambda_{avg}=550\ nm

(b). We need to calculate the diameter of the pinhole

Using formula for diameter

w=\dfrac{2.44\lambda L}{D}

D=\dfrac{2.44\lambda L}{w}

Put the value into the formula

D=\dfrac{2.44\times550\times10^{-9}\times4}{1\times10^{-2}}

D=0.537\ mm

Hence, (a). The average wavelength 550 nm.

(b). The diameter of the pinhole is 0.537 mm.

To analyze the experiment used to determine the properties of an electron. In 1909, Robert Millikan performed an experiment invo
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

C has 5 electrons

Explanation:

Given:

The data acquired from the experiment performed by Millikan:

Q_a = 3.20 x10^{-19}  C

Q_b = 4.80 x10^{-19}  C

Q_c = 8.00 x 10^{-19}  C

Q_d = 9.60 x 10^{-19}  C

Find:

How many Electrons were present in drop C

Solution:

It is known that the charge of an electron e = 1.602 *10^-19 C / electron.

Hence the number of electrons n in drop C will be:

      n = Q_c / e

      n = 8.00 x 10^{-19}  / 1.602*10^-19

      n = 4.99 = 5 electrons  

Answer: The drop C contains 5 electrons.

The total amount of water on earth_____. Remains the same. Is decreasing Is increasing
Elena L [17]

The total amount of water on earth <u>remains the same</u>.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The quantity of water on Earth remains the same now as it was in the Olden days. All water which is consumed by living things continue to be as part of the Earth's total water content.

The total amount is not exactly constant, as there are two fluxes of water between Earth and the rest of the solar system. There is a steady rain of water-bearing meteoroids hitting the planet, which slowly increases the amount of water. At the same time, molecules of water often dissociate in the upper atmosphere into hydrogen and oxygen due to ultraviolet light from the sun. Some of the hydrogen atoms have enough energy to escape from Earth’s gravitational field, and so are lost. This slowly decreases the amount of water. In addition, tectonic plate subduction is constantly carrying water down into Earth’s mantle, and volcanoes are constantly spewing water out onto the surface again. The balance between the two processes can change considerably over time. But all of these actions are meager  compared to the total quantity of water on our planet, and two of them are in the opposite direction of the other two. So the overall change is insignificant, even when considered over long spans of geologic time.
