Answer:

These are Diffraction Grating Questions.

Q1. To determine the width of the slit in micrometers (μm), we will need to use the expression for distance along the screen from the center maximum to the nth minimum on one side:  

Given as  

y = nDλ/w                                                       Eqn 1

where  

w = width of slit  

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  

Making x the subject of the formula gives,  

w = nDλ/y  

Given  

y = 0.0149 m  

D = 0.555 m  

λ = 588 x 10-9 m  

and n = 3

w = 6.6x10⁻⁵m

Hence, the width of the slit w, in micrometers (μm) = 66μm

Q2. To determine the linear distance Δx, between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen

i.e we have to find the difference between distance along the screen (y₉-y₅) = Δx

Recall Eqn 1,     y = nDλ/w  

given, D = 27cm = 0.27m  

λ = 632 x 10-9 m  

w = 0.1mm = 1.0x10⁻⁴m

For the 9th order, n = 9,

y₉ = 9 x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.015m

Similarly, for n = 5,

y₅ = 5x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.0085m

Recall,  Δx = (y₉-y₅) = 0.015 - 0.0085 = 0.0065m

Hence, the linear distance Δx between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen = 6.5mm

How much time would it take to go up to the moon and back
marusya05 [52]

That completely depends on your speed and the trajectory (path) you choose.

The Apollo missions took about 3 days each way.

The New Horizons spacecraft passed the moon within a couple of hours after it was launched.

A mercury in barometer shows a height of 70cm.What height would be shown in the barometer at the same place if water density 1.0
Pie

Answer:

P = d g h      pressure due to density of liquid of height h

d1 g h1 = d2 g h2       since P1 equals P2

d1 h1 = d2 h2      and the density of Hg is 13.6 times that of water

h2 = (d1 / d2) * h1 = 13.6 * 70 cm =  952 cm or 9.52 m

A ball that has a mass of 0.25 kg spins in a circle at the end of a 1.6 m rope. the ball moves at a tangential speed of 12.2 m/s
NARA [144]

The centripetal force acting on the ball will be 23.26 N.The direction of the centripetal force is always in the path of the center of the course.

<h3>What is centripetal force?</h3>

The force needed to move a body in a curved way is understood as centripetal force. This is a force that can be sensed from both the fixed frame and the spinning body's frame of concern.

The given data in the problem is;

m is the mass of A ball = 0.25 kg

r is the radius of circle= 1.6 m rope

v is the tangential speed = 12.2 m/s

\rm F_C is the centripetal force acting on the ball

The centripetal force is found as;

\rm F_C = \frac{mv^2}{r}  \\\\ F_C = \frac{0.25 \times (12.2)^2}{1.6}  \\\\ F_C=23.26\ N

Hence the centripetal force acting on the ball will be 23.26 N.
