A sodium atom will absorb light with a wavelength near 589 nm if the light is within 10 MHz of the resonant frequency. The atomi

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

i)20369 photons

ii) 40 ps

Explanation:

Momentum of one Sodium atom:

$P=m*v =600m/s*23amu*\frac{1 kg}{6.02*10^{23}amu}\\P=2.29*10^{-23}kgm/s$

In other to stop it, it must absorb the same momentum in photons:

$P=2.29*10^{-23}kgm/s=n_{photons}*\frac{h_{planck}}{\lambda}\\=n*\frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{589*10^{-9}} \\==>n=20369 photons$

Now, for the minimun time, we use the speed of light and the wavelength. For the n photons:

$t=n*T=n*\frac{\lambda}{c} =20369*\frac{589nm}{3*10^{8}m/s}=4*10^{-11} second=40 ps$

Two small stereo speakers are driven in step by the same variable-frequency oscillator. Their sound is picked up by a microphone

anygoal [31]

Answer:

The fundamental frequency at which the sound of speakers at the microphone produce constructive interference is 801.076458 Hz

Explanation:

For a given arrangement having constructive interference, we have;

R₁ - R₂ = 2·x = 0 + n·λ

The distance from one speaker to the microphone. R₁ = 4.50 m

The distance between the two speakers = 2.00 m

The angle formed between the direction from the microphone to the speaker closest and the directional path between the speakers = 90°

Therefore, by Pythagoras's theorem, the distance from the speaker furthest from the microphone, to the microphone, 'R₂' is given as follows;

R₂ = √(4.50² + 2.00²) = √(24.25) = 4.9244289009 ≈ 4.924

∴ R₂ ≈ 4.9244289 m

R₂ - R₁ = 4.9244289 m - 4.5 m = 0.4244289 m

For constructive interference, R₂ - R₁ =0.4244289 m = n·λ

For n = 1, we have;

R₂ - R₁ =0.4244289 m = n·λ = 1 × λ = λ

λ = 0.4244589 m

f = v/λ = 340 m/sec/(0.4244289 m) ≈ 801.076458 Hz

Therefore the lowest possible fundamental frequency at which the speakers produce constructive interference, f = 801.076458 Hz

____ [38]

Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation: According to the Newton 3rd law of motion which state that;

In every action, there will be equal and opposite reaction.

when the piston of a fountain pen with a nib is dipped into ink and and the air is released by pressing it, a force is applied which act on the molecules of the ink by pushing the molecules. When the force is released, there will be a reaction force by pulling the molecules of the ink into the pen. Thereby the ink fills in the pen.
