Answer: 5.41 V

Explanation:in order to explain this result we have to use the Ohm law given by:

ΔV=R*I where R is the resistance which is equal R= ρ*L/A . ρ is the resistivity, L the length of the wire and A is the cross section. I is the current.

Then we have

ΔV=ρ*L*I/A= 1.68 * 10^-8 Ωm*93.4 m*72.5A/2.1* 10^-5 m^2=5.41 V

In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The wavelength is $\lambda_2 = 534 *10^{-9} \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength of the first light is $\lambda _ 1 = 587 \ nm$

The order of the first light that is being considered is $m_1 = 10$

The order of the second light that is being considered is $m_2 = 11$

Generally the distance between the fringes for the first light is mathematically represented as

$y_1 = \frac{ m_1 * \lambda_1 * D}{d}$

Here D is the distance from the screen

and d is the distance of separation of the slit.

For the second light the distance between the fringes is mathematically represented as

$y_2 = \frac{ m_2 * \lambda_2 * D}{d}$

Now given that both of the light are passed through the same double slit

$\frac{y_1}{y_2} = \frac{\frac{m_1 * \lambda_1 * D}{d} }{\frac{m_2 * \lambda_2 * D}{d} } = 1$

=> $\frac{ m_1 * \lambda _1 }{ m_2 * \lambda_2} = 1$

=> $\lambda_2 = \frac{m_1 * \lambda_1}{m_2}$

=> $\lambda_2 = \frac{10 * 587 *10^{-9}}{11}$

=> $\lambda_2 = 534 *10^{-9} \ m$

A man with a mass of 65.0 kg skis down a frictionless hill that is 5.00 m high. At the bottom of the hill the terrain levels out

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The horizontal distance is 4.823 m

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of man, m = 65.0 kg

Height of the hill, H = 5.00 m

Mass of the backpack, m' = 20.0 kg

Height of ledge, h = 2 m

Now,

To calculate the horizontal distance from the edge of the ledge:

Making use of the principle of conservation of energy both at the top and bottom of the hill (frictionless), the total mechanical energy will remain conserved.

Now,

$KE_{initial} + PE_{initial} = KE_{final} + PE_{final}$

where

KE = Kinetic energy

PE = Potential energy

Initially, the man starts, form rest thus the velocity at start will be zero and hence the initial Kinetic energy will also be zero.

Also, the initial potential energy will be converted into the kinetic energy thus the final potential energy will be zero.

Therefore,

$0 + mgH = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + 0$

$2gH = v^{2}$

$v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5} = 9.89\ m/s$

where

v = velocity at the hill's bottom

Now,

Making use of the principle of conservation of momentum in order to calculate the velocity after the inclusion, v' of the backpack:

$mv = (m + m')v'$

$65.0\times 9.89 = (65.0 + 20.0)v'$

$v' = 7.56\ m/s$

Now, time taken for the fall:

$h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2}{9.8} = 0.638\ s$

Now, the horizontal distance is given by:

x = v't = $7.56\times 0.638 = 4.823\ m$
