All but two gaps within a set of Venetian blinds have been blocked off to create a double-slit system. These gaps are separated

by a distance of 5.0 cm. Infrared radiation is then passed through the two gaps in the blinds. If the angle between the central and the second-order maxima in the interference pattern is 0.52°, what is the wavelength of the radiation?

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

Why are we not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere on our shoulders?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Due to equal pressure in all the direction at a particular level in a fluid medium (Pascal's Law)

Explanation:

We are not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere because atmosphere is a fluid and we are immersed into it. So, according to the Pascal's law the the pressure a each point in a horizontal level is equal in all the direction irrespective of the orientation of a body.

Variation of pressure in term of the height of a fluid medium is given as:

P=\rho.g.h

\rho=density of fluid

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the free surface of the fluid from the immersed object.

  • And atmosphere has very less variation of pressure with change in height as it is a rare medium fluid and so for a human height there is very negligible variation of pressure at the heat of a human with respect to his toe.

A man starts walking north at 2 ft/s from a point p. five minutes later a woman starts walking south at 4 ft/s from a point 500
icang [17]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

After 5 minutes (300 seconds):
The man travels north by (2 ft/s)*(300 s) = 600 ft
The woman, located at q, 500 east of p, begins walking south at 4 ft/s.
The distance separating them is
d₁ = √(600² + 500²) = 781.025 ft

After 20 minutes:
The man has traveled for 20 minutes (1200 s).
The woman has traveled for 15 minutes (900 s).
The man has moved (2 ft/s)*(1200 s) = 2400 ft north of p.
The woman has moved (4 ft/s)*(900 s) = 3600 ft south of q.
The distance separating them is
d₂ = √(6000² + 500²) = 6020.8 ft

The separation from d₁ to d₂ occurs in 15 minutes (900s).
Therefore the rate of separation is
Rate = (d₂ - d₁ ft)/(900 s) = (6020.8 - 781.025)/900 = 5.822 ft/s
or
Rate = (5.822 ft/s)*(60 s/min) = 349.32 ft/min

Answer: 349.32 ft/min (or 5.82 ft/s)

What is the answer? Explain best and I will mark brainliest!
iVinArrow [24]
I would say B because it is near the ocean which can cause a tsunami but also because of the wind coming from the ocean (it might cause hurricanes and lots of storms) I’m not sure though but that’s what I think makes sense. Good Luck!

Select inductive reasoning, deductive reasoning, or neither.
JulsSmile [24]
Based on the given situation above about the ants tasting a sample of a certain liquid, the kind of reasoning that is applicable to it would be inductive reasoning. Inductive reasoning is a kind of reasoning which is based on specific instances going to the conclusion.
