Answer:

  m = 4

Explanation:

The expression that explains the constructive interference of a diffraction pattern is

         a sin θ = m λ

where a  is the width of the slit and λ the wavelength

         sin θ = m λ / a

The maximum value is for when the sine is 1, let's substitute

         1 = m λ/a  

         m = a /λ

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

        a = 2.1 um = 2.1 10⁻⁶

        lam = 475 nm = 475 10⁻⁹ m

let's calculate

        m = 2.1  10⁻⁶ / 475 10⁻⁹

        m = 4.42

with m must be an integer the highest value is

         m = 4

kristine speeds past a parked police car at 32 m/s. The police car starts from rest with a uniform acceleration of 2.5 m/s^2. Ho
Digiron [165]

32 = 0 \times t +  \frac{1}{2} \times 2.5 \times t^{2}     \\  32 = 0 + 1.25 \times t {}^{2}  \\ 32 = 1.25t {}^{2}   \\   \frac{32}{1.25}  =  \frac{1.25t {}^{2} }{1.25}  \\ t {}^{2}  = 25.6 \\  \sqrt{t {}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{25.6}  \\ t = 5.1seconds \\

A circular 10-turn coil with a radius of 5.0 cm carries a current of 5 A. It lies in the xy plane in a uniform magnetic field =
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

U = – 0.12J

Explanation:

Given N = 10 turns, I = 5A, r = 5×10-²m

B^ = 0.05 T iˆ+ 0.3 T kˆ

Magnitude of the magnetic field vector B = √(0.05²+0.3²) = 0.304T

Area = πr² = π(5×10-²)² = 7.85×10-³m²

Magnetic moment μ = NIA

μ = 10×5×7.85×10-³ = 0.3925Am²

U = -μ•B = –0.3925×0.304 = –0.12J

The sign is negative because the magnetic moment is aligned with the magnetic field.

Write about the similarities and differences between kinetic and potential energy. Include specific, real world example in your
lord [1]

Answer:

Energy is transformed from potential to kinetic and vice versa

Explanation:

The energy is transformed from mechanical to kinetic energy when the object changes its position with respect to a reference point, where it loses height but increases its speed. When the object is at maximum height with respect to a reference point, it will have its maximum potential energy value. When the object passes through the reference point it will have potential energy equal to zero, but this energy will become kinetic energy.

The most characteristic and real example is that of a pendulum at one end, as can be seen in the attached image.

When the pendulum is located at the top end, as shown in Figure 1, at that point the maximum potential energy will be held. Then the pendulum is released and when it passes through the reference point and its height is zero, with respect to that point, all potential energy will have become kinetic energy in the same way at this point the maximum speed of the pendulum will be set.

Una pelota de béisbol de 142g de masa, luego de ser arrojada por el pitcher lleva una velocidad de 90mph. Luego de ser bateada s
V125BC [204]

Answer:

a)    I = 13.38 kg m / s, b)    F = 1,373 10³ N

Explanation:

The impulse is given by the relation

          I = ∫ F dt = Δp

          I = p_f -p₀

          I = m (v_f - v₀)

take the ball's exit direction as positive, whereby the ball velocities

v₀ = -90mph, the final velocity v_f = + 54 m / s

Let's reduce the units to

         I = 0.142 [54- (-40.23) ]

      the SI system

        v₀ = - 90 mph (1609.34 m / 1 mile) (1h / 3600 s = -40.23 m / s

        m = 142 g (1kg / 1000) = 0.142 kg

we calculate  

          I = 0.142 [54- (-40) ]

          I = 13.38 kg m / s

b) let's use the definition of momentum

         I = ∫ F .dt

         I = F ∫ dt

         F = I / t

         F = 13.38 / 0.008

         F = 1,373 10³ N
