Light with a wavelength of λ = 614 nm is shone first on a single slit of width w = 3.75 μm. The single slit is then replaced wit

h a double slit separated by a distance w. The ratio of the single slit angle to the double slit angle for the first dark fringe is Rθ.Find the ratio between these angles numerically.

Answer:

The ratio, R_{\theta} is 2

Solution:

As per the question:

Wavelength, \lambda = 614\ nm = 614\times 10^{- 9}\ m

Single slit width, w = 3.75\ mu m

Now,

We know from the eqn for diffraction:

n\lambda = wsin\theta

Now,

For single slit:

n = 1

\lambda = wsin\theta_{s}

sin\theta = \frac{\lambda}{w}

For very small angle:

sin\theta ≈ \theta

\theta = \frac{\lambda}{w}              (1)

For double slit:

n = 2

Thus

2\lambda = wsin\theta_{s}

sin\theta' = \frac{\lambda}{2w}

For very small angle:

sin\theta ≈ \theta

\theta' = \frac{\lambda}{2w}             (2)

For the ratio, R_{\theta}, we divide en (1) by eqn (2):

R_{\theta} = \frac{\frac{\lambda}{w}}{\frac{\lambda}{2w}} = 2

the density of dry air at 20 degrees celsius is 1.20 g/L. What is the mass of air, in kilograms, of a room that measures 24.0m b
horsena [70]
<h2>Mass of air in a room that measures 24.0 m by 15.0 m by 4.0 m is 1728 kg.</h2>

Explanation:

Density of air = 1.20 g/L = \frac{1.20\times 10^{-3}kg}{10^{-3}m^3}=1.2kg/m^3

Size of room is 24.0m by 15.0 m by 4.0 m

Volume of room = 24 x 15 x 4 = 1440 m³

We know the equation

            Mass = Volume x Density

            Mass = 1440 x 1.2

            Mass = 1728 kg  

Mass of air in a room that measures 24.0 m by 15.0 m by 4.0 m is 1728 kg.

Es frecuente que en las instalaciones eléctricas domésticas se utilice alambre de cobre de 2.05 mm de diámetro. Determine la res
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The resistance is 0.124 ohm.

Explanation:

It is common for domestic electrical installations to use copper wire with a diameter of 2.05 mm. Determine the resistance of such a wire with a length of 24.0 m.

diameter, d = 2.05 mm

radius, r = 1.025 mm

Length, L = 24 m

resistivity of copper = 1.7 x 10^-8 ohm m

Let the resistance is R.

R =\rho \frac{L}{A}\\\\R = \frac {1.7\times10^{-8}\times 24}{3.14\times1.025\times1.025\times 10^{-6}}\\\\R = 0.124 ohm

Interactive Solution 11.13 presents a model for solving this problem. A solid concrete block weighs 100 N and is resting on the
mash [69]

Answer:

The value is }  N  =  66 \  blocks

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the block is W_b  = 100 \  N

The dimension of the block is d =  0.400 m  \ X  \ 0.250 \  m  \  X  \ 0.130 \ m

Generally two atmosphere is equivalent to

P_{2atm} =  2 *  1.013 *10^{5} =  202600 \  N/m^2

Generally 1 atm = 1.013 *10^{5} N/m^2

The area of the block would be evaluated using width and height because we need for the smaller surface to be in contact with the ground in order to maximize the pressure and minimize number of blocks

So

A =  0.250 *  0.130

=> A =  0.0325 \  m^2

Generally the force due to this blocks is mathematically represented as

F =  N  *  W_b

Here N is the number of blocks

So

}  202600 =  \frac{N  *  100 }{ 0.0325}

=>   }  N  =  66 \  blocks
