Acceleration is the rate at which an object picks up speed. deceleration is the rate at which an object loses speed.
Answer:
Explanation:
separation between two gaps, d = 5 cm
angle between central and second order maxima, θ = 0.52°
use
d Sinθ = n λ
n = 2
0.05 x Sin 0.52° = 2 x λ
λ = 2.27 x 10^-4 m
λ = 226.9 micro metre
Answer:
33.6 Ns backward.
Explanation:
Impulse: This can be defined as the product of force and time. The S.I unit of impulse is Ns.
From Newton's second law of motion,
Impulse = change in momentum
I = mΔv................................. Equation 1
Where I = impulse, m = mass of the skater, Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity.
Given: m = 28 kg, t = 0.8 s, Δv = -1.2-0 = -1.2 m/s (Note: the initial velocity of the skater = 0 m/s)
Substituting into equation 1
I = 28(-1.2)
I = -33.6 Ns
Thus the impulse = 33.6 Ns backward.
Answer:
Y = 3.87 x 10⁻³ m = 3.87 mm
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by using Young's double-slit experiment formula:
where,
Y = fringe spacing = ?
L = slit to screen distance = 2 m
λ = wavelength of light = 580 nm = 5.8 x 10⁻⁷ m
d = slit width = 0.3 mm = 3 x 10⁻⁴ m
Therefore,
<u>Y = 3.87 x 10⁻³ m = 3.87 mm</u>
