Answer:

51793 bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed when the mirror M2 moves through 1.7cm

Explanation:

The number of maxima appearing when the mirror M moves through distance \Delta L is given as follows,

\Delta m = \frac{\Delta L}{\frac{\lambda}{2}}

Here,

\Delta L= is the distance moved by the mirror M

\lambda is the wavelenght of the light used.

\Delta L= 0.017m

\lambda = 656.45*10^{-9}m

\Delta m = \frac{0.017}{\frac{656.45*10^{-9}}{2}}

\Delta m = 51793.72

Therefore, 51793 bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed when the mirror M2 moves through 1.7

Why do we feel the effects of gravity given that the gravitational force is so weak?
almond37 [142]
Any two objects in the universe attract each other. Gravity is the force exerted by earth on you (you exert the same force on earth) but due to the fact that earth has a huge mass compared to yours, you will be attracted to earth only by a small gravitational force.

Which statement describes a controlled experiment?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

In a controlled experiment, an independent variable (the cause) is systematically manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are controlled. The researcher can operationalize (i.e. define) the variables being studied so they can be objectivity measured.

You look at a barometer and see that the air pressure is getting much higher... How will the weather probably change? *
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The weather will clear up and get sunnier.

Explanation:As weather forecasters monitor air pressure, falling barometer measurements can signal that bad weather is on the way. In general, if a low pressure system is on its way, be prepared for warmer weather with storms and rain. If a high pressure system is coming, you can expect clear skies and cooler temperatures.

hope this helped:)

olga_2 [115]

The correct answer is A. Acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7

Explanation:

The term "acid rain" is used to refer to rainwater with a low pH or a high acidity, this includes rainwater with a pH below 7 (solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic). In terms of formation, acid rain is mainly the result of human activities such as factories or cars that release pollutants into the atmosphere including nitric and sulfuric acids and these alter the natural pH of rain and makes it more acidic. Additionally, acid rain has negative consequences such as the death of fishes and other organisms in lakes, rivers, etc. because the acidity is toxic to many organisms. Thus, acid rain is the result of human activities and it lowers the pH of rain (Option A).
