Coherent light with wavelength 460 nm falls on a pair of slits. On a screen 1.86 m away, the distance between dark fringes is 3.

90 mm. What is the slit separation?

Answer:

The split separation d = 2.12 * 10^-4 m

Explanation:

Mathematically, for a double split interference, the relation between separation of slit and fringe width is given by the formula;

d = Rλ/Δy

Where R represents the distance of screen from the slit given as 1.86m , λ is the wavelength of incident light given as 460 nm ,

Δy is the fringe width given as 3.90 nm

plugging these values into the equation, we have;

d = (1.86)(460 * 10^-9)/(3.9 * 10^-3)

d = 2.12 * 10^-4 m

Whats the force of gravitation of a 10kg rock and 100kg boulder which are 5 meters apart​
spayn [35]

Answer:

F = 2.6692 x 10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the rock, m = 10 kg

The mass of the boulder, M = 100 kg

The distance between them, d = 5 m

The gravitational force between the two bodies is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. It is given by the formula

                                   <em> F = GMm/d²  newton</em>

Where,

                                 G - Universal gravitational constant

Substituting the given values,

                                 F = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ x 100 x 10 / 5²

                                 F = 2.6692 X 10⁻⁹ N

Hence, the force between the two bodies is, F = 2.6692 X 10⁻⁹ N

In an electric shaver, the blade moves back and forth over a distance of 2.0 mm in simple harmonic motion, with frequency 124 Hz
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(a) A = 1 mm

(b) V_{max}=0.77872 m/s

(c) a_{max}=606.4 m/s^{2}/tex]Explanation:Distance moved back and forth = 2 mm Frequency, f = 124 HzSo, amplitude is the half of the distance traveled back and forth. (a) So, amplitude, A = 1 mm(b) Angular frequency, ω = 2 π f = 2 x 3.14 x 124 = 778.72 rad/s The formula for the maximum speed is given by [tex]V_{max}=\omega \times A

V_{max}=778.72 \times 0.001

V_{max}=0.77872 m/s

(c) The formula for the maximum acceleration is given by

a_{max}=\omega ^{2}A

a_{max}=778.72 ^{2}\times 0.001

[tex]a_{max}=606.4 m/s^{2}/tex]

An 8.50 m long ladder leans against the side of a building. The ladder is initially inclined at an angle of 47.0° to the horizon
erastova [34]

The angle of the ladder inclined with respect to the horizontal after being moved a distance of 0.82 m closer to the building is 53.84°

cos θ = Adjacent side / Hypotenuse

θ_{1} = 47°

Hypotenuse = Length of ladder = 8.5 m

cos 47° = Adjacent side / 8.5

Adjacent side = Initial distance of base of ladder from the building = 5.8 m

Adjacent side 2 = Final distance of base of ladder from the building

Adjacent side 2 = 5.8 - 0.82 = 4.98 m

cos θ_{2} = Adjacent side 2 / Hypotenuse

cos θ_{2} = 4.98 / 8.5 = 0.59

θ_{2} = cos^{-1} ( 0.59 )

θ_{2} = 53.84°

The formula used above is one of trigonometric ratios. Trigonometric ratios can used only in a right angled triangle where one of the angles in at 90 degrees and the other two angles are less than 90 degrees.

Therefore, the angle of the ladder inclined with respect to the horizontal after being moved is 53.84°

How do mass and distance affect gravity?
elixir [45]
A gravitational force between objects depends on two things- their masses and the distance between them. So the greater the mass and the less distance there is, the more gravitational force and is the mass is less and the distance is great the gravitational force is weak
