Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Slit separation d = .1 x 10⁻³ m

Screen distance D = 4 m

wave length of light  λ = 650 x 10⁻⁹ m

Width of central fringe = λ D / d

= \frac{650\times10^{-9}\times4}{.1\times10^{-3}}

= 26 mm

b ) Distance between 1 st and 2 nd bright fringe will be equal to width of dark fringe which will also be equal to 26 mm

c ) Angular separation between the central maximum and 1 st order maximum will be equal to angular width of fringe which is equal to

λ  / d

= \frac{650\times10^{-9}}{.1\times10^{-3}}

= 6.5 x 10⁻³ radian.

A child throws a baseball upward with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. The child wants to throw the baseball at least as high as t
Umnica [9.8K]
When the ball starts its motion from the ground, its potential energy is zero, so all its mechanical energy is kinetic energy of the motion:
E= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the ball's mass and v its initial velocity, 20 m/s.

When the ball reaches its maximum height, h, its velocity is zero, so its mechanical energy is just gravitational potential energy:
E=mgh

for the law of conservation of energy, the initial mechanical energy must be equal to the final mechanical energy, so we have
\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh
From which we find the maximum height of the ball:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(20 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=20.4 m

Therefore, the answer is yes, the ball will reach the top of the tree.

A student drops a ball from the top of a tall building; it takes 2.9 s for the ball to reach the ground.
AlexFokin [52]

<h2><u>We have</u>,</h2>

  • Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
  • Time taken (t) = 2.9s
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = + 10 m/s² [Down]

<h2><u>To calculate</u>,</h2>

  • Final velocity (v)
  • Height (h)

<h2><u>Solution</u><u>,</u></h2>

→ v = u + gt

→ v = 0 + 10(2.9)

→ v = 29 m/s \qquad … ( Ans )

And,

→ h = ut + ½gt²

→ h = 0(2.9) + ½ × 10 × (2.9)²

→ h = 5 × 8.41

→ h = 42.05 m \qquad … ( Ans )
