A Michelson interferometer operating at a 500 nm wavelength has a 3.73-cm-long glass cell in one arm. To begin, the air is pumpe

d out of the cell and mirror M2 is adjusted to produce a bright spot at the center of the interference pattern. Then, a valve is opened and air is slowly admitted into the cell. The index of refraction of air at 1.00 atm pressure is 1.00028.
How many bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed as the cell fills with air?

Answer:

The number of bright-dark fringe is 42

Solution:

As per the question:

Wavelength of light, \lambda = 500\ nm = 500\times 10^{- 9}\ m

Length of the glass cell, x = 3.73 cm = 0.0373 m

Refractive index, \mu = 1.00028

Now,

To calculate the bright-dark fringe shifts, we use the formula given below:

d_{m} = \frac{2x}{\lambda }\times (\mu - 1)

Now, substituting the appropriate values in the above formula:

d_{m} = \frac{2\times 0.0373}{500\times 10^{- 9}}\times (1.00028 - 1)

d_{m} = 41.77 ≈ 42

Problem 4.079 SI A rigid tank whose volume is 3 m3, initially containing air at 1 bar, 295 K, is connected by a valve to a large
salantis [7]

Answer:

Q_{cv} = -1007.86kJ

Explanation:

Our values are,

State 1

V=3m^3\\P_1=1bar\\T_1 = 295K

We know moreover for the tables A-15 that

u_1 = 210.49kJ/kg\\h_i = 295.17kJkg

State 2

P_2 =6bar\\T_2 = 296K\\T_f = 320K

For tables we know at T=320K

u_2 = 228.42kJ/kg

We need to use the ideal gas equation to estimate the mass, so

m_1 = \frac{p_1V}{RT_1}

m_1 = \frac{1bar*100kPa/1bar(3m^3)}{0.287kJ/kg.K(295k)}

m_1 = 3.54kg

Using now for the final mass:

m_2 = \frac{p_2V}{RT_2}

m_2 = \frac{1bar*100kPa/6bar(3m^3)}{0.287kJ/kg.K(320k)}

m_2 = 19.59kg

We only need to apply a energy balance equation:

Q_{cv}+m_ih_i = m_2u_2-m_1u_1

Q_{cv}=m_2u_2-m1_u_1-(m_2-m_1)h_i

Q_{cv} = (19.59)(228.42)-(3.54)(210.49)-(19.59-3.54)(295.17)

Q_{cv} = -1007.86kJ

The negative value indidicates heat ransfer from the system

1: A baseball is hit 4 feet above the ground leaves the bat with an initial speed of 98 ft/sec at an angle of 0 45 is caught by
zvonat [6]

Answer:

299.36 feet

Explanation:

To \ find  \   the  \ distance \  of  \ the  \ ball \  from  \ the \ home  \ plate.  \\ \\ From  \ the  \ given  \ information:

Height \ h = 4 \ ft

Initial \ speed \ V_o = 98 \ ft/s ec

The  \ angle \  \theta = 45^0

Acceleration \ due \ to \ gravity (g)= 32.2 \ ft/s

U_x = V_o \ cos 45 = \dfrac{98}{\sqrt{2}}

U_y = V_o \ sin 45 = \dfrac{98}{\sqrt{2}}

So;

S_y = u_y t - \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

-1 =\dfrac{98}{\sqrt{2}}t - \dfrac{1}{2}*32*1.85t^2

By solving:

t_1 = 4.32 \ sec

Thus;

horizontal \ distance = U_x t

= \dfrac{98}{\sqrt{2}}\times 4.32

\mathbf{=299.36  \ feet}

\mathbf{Thus \ , the  \  distance \ from \  the  \ home  \ plate \  =  \ 299.36  \ feet}
