Monochromatic coherent light shines through a pair of slits. If the wavelength of the light is decreased, which of the following
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

he correct answers are a, b

Explanation:

In the two-slit interference phenomenon, the expression for interference is

          d sin θ= m λ                       constructive interference

          d sin θ = (m + ½) λ             destructive interference

in general this phenomenon occurs for small angles, for which we can write

           tanθ = y / L

           tan te = sin tea / cos tea = sin tea

           sin θ = y / La

un

derestimate the first two equations.

Let's do the calculation for constructive interference

         d y / L = m λ

the distance between maximum clos is and

         y = (me / d) λ

this is the position of each maximum, the distance between two consecutive maximums

         y₂-y₁ = (L   2/d) λ - (L 1 / d) λ₁          y₂ -y₁ = L / d λ

examining this equation if the wavelength decreases the value of y also decreases

the same calculation for destructive interference

         d y / L = (m + ½) κ

         y = [(m + ½) L / d] λ

again when it decreases the decrease the distance

the correct answers are a, b

A ball of mass 2 kg is kept on the hill of height 3 km. Calculate the potential energy possessed by it ?
zysi [14]
We know that -

P.E=m*g*h

Where,

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h=height

First we convert height into meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

3 km = 1000 * 3 meters = 3000 meters

So, putting the values in the above formula, and by taking 'g' = 9.8 m/s², we get-

P.E.= 2*3000*9.8

P.E.= 58800 Joules

P.E.= 58.8 kJ
