Answer:
225 N
Explanation:
"Below the horizontal" means he's pushing down at an angle.
Draw a free body diagram of the box. There are three forces: normal force N pushing up, weight force mg pulling down, and the applied force F at an angle θ.
Sum of forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
N − mg − F sin θ = 0
N = F sin θ + mg
Plug in values:
N = (50 N) (sin 30°) + (20.0 kg) (10 m/s²)
N = 225 N
Answer:
λ = a
Explanation:
This is a diffraction exercise that is described by the expression
a sin θ = m λ
sin θ = m λ/ a
the first zero of the diffraction occurs for m = 1
sin θ = λ / a
angles are generally very small and are measured in radians
sin θ = θ = y / x
we substitute
the width of the central maximum is twice the distance to zero
w = 2y
in the exercise indicate that this width is equal to twice the distance to the screen (2x)
W = 2x
2y = 2x
we substitute
1 = λ/ a
λ = a
we see that the width of the slit is equal to the wavelength used.
