C=(wavelength) x (frequency).
(0.007)(16)=0.112m/s

A screen is placed 1.20m behind a single slit. The central maximum in the resulting diffraction pattern on the screen is 1.40cm

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

2.8 cm

Explanation:

$y_1$ = Separation between two first order diffraction minima = 1.4 cm

D = Distance of screen = 1.2 m

m = Order

Fringe width is given by

$\beta_1=\dfrac{y_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=\dfrac{1.4}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=0.7\ cm$

Fringe width is also given by

$\beta_1=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}$

For second order

$\beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1$

Distance between two second order minima is given by

$y_2=2\beta_2$

$\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{2}{1}\times 0.7\\\Rightarrow y_2=2.8\ cm$

The distance between the two second order minima is 2.8 cm

An automobile with an initial speed of 4.92 m/s accelerates uniformly at the rate of 3.2 m/s2 . Find the final speed of the car

Rudik [331]

Answer:19.32 m/s

Explanation:

Given

initial speed of car(u)=4.92 m/s

acceleration(a)= $3.2 m/s^2$

Speed of car after 4.5 s

using equation of motion

v=u+at

$v=4.92+3.2\times 4.5=4.92+14.4$

v=19.32 m/s

Displacement of the car after 4.5 s

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$19.32^2-4.92^2=2\times 3.2\times s$

$349.05=2\times 3.2\times s$

s=54.54 m

Initially sliding with a speed of 1.9 m/s, a 1.8 kg block collides with a spring and compresses it 0.35 m before coming to rest.

Alika [10]

Let k = the force constant of the spring (N/m).

The strain energy (SE) stored in the spring when it is compressed by a distance x=0.35 m is
SE = (1/2)*k*x²
= 0.5*(k N/m)*(0.35 m)²
= 0.06125k J

The KE (kinetic energy) of the sliding block is
KE = (1/2)*mass*velocity²
= 0.5*(1.8 kg)*(1.9 m/s)²
= 3.249 J

Assume that negligible energy is lost when KE is converted into SE.
Therefore
0.06125k = 3.249
k = 53.04 N/m

Answer: 53 N/m (nearest integer)
