Answer:

\theta_2 = 34.61^0

Explanation:

Path difference for the destructive interference of a single slit:

D sin \theta = n \lambda

For the first - order minimum, n = 1, and \theta = \theta_1

D sin \theta_1 = \lambda.........(1)

For the second - order minimum, n = 2,  and \theta = \theta_2

D sin \theta_2 = 2 \lambda.........(2)

Dividing equation (2) by equation (1):

\frac{D sin \theta_2}{Dsin \theta_1}  = \frac{2 \lambda}{\lambda} \\\frac{ sin \theta_2}{sin \theta_1}  = 2 \\\theta_1 = 16.5^0\\\frac{ sin \theta_2}{sin 16.5}  = 2\\sin \theta_2 = 2 sin 16.5\\sin \theta_2 = 0.568\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} 0.568\\\theta_2 = 34.61^0

Answer:

  • <u>77.8 m/s, downward</u>

Explanation:

For uniform acceleration motion, the average speed is equal to half the soum of the initial velocity, Vi, and the final velocity, Vf

  • Average speed = (Vf + Vi)/2

Also, by definition, the average speed is the distance divided by the time:

  • Average speed = distance / time

Then:

  • (Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

Other kinematic equation for uniform acceleration is:

  • Vf = Vi + a×t

Since the window is falling and the air resistance is ignored, a = g (gravitational acceleration ≈ 9.8m/s²)

Replacing the known values we can set a system of two equations:

From (Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

(Vf + Vi) = 2 × 300m/6.62s

  • Vf + Vi = 90.634      equation 1

From Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf - Vi = 9.8 (6.62)

  • Vf - Vi = 64.876     equation 2

Adding the two equations:

  • 2Vf = 155.510

  • Vf = 77.8 m/s downward (velocities must be reported with their directions)

A car’s tire rotates 5.25 times in 3 seconds. What is the tangential velocity of the tire?
Lena [83]

The tangential velocity of the car's tire is the product of the angular velocity and radius of the car's tire which is 11(r) m/s.

<h3>Angular velocity of the tire</h3>

The angular velocity of the tire is the rate of change of angular displacement of the tire with time.

The magnitude of the angular velocity of the tire is calculated as follows;

ω = 2πN

where;

  • N is the number of revolutions per second

ω = 2π x (5.25 / 3)

ω =  11 rad/s

<h3>Tangential velocity of the tire</h3>

The tangential velocity of the car's tire is the product of the angular velocity and radius of the car's tire.

The magnitude of the tangential velocity is caculated as follows;

v = ωr

where;

  • r is the radius of the car's tire

v = 11r m/s

26. A transformer increases or decreases
uysha [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Single-phase transformers can operate to either increasing or decreasing the voltage applied to the primary winding. When a transformer is used to “increase” the voltage on the secondary winding with respect to the primary, it is called a Step-up transformer
