Infrared light of wavelength 2.5 µm illuminates a 0.20-mm-diameter hole. What is the angle of the first dark fringe in radians?

In degrees?
Physics

Answer:

Θ=0.01525 rad

or

Θ=0.87°

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength λ=2.5 µm =2.5×10⁻⁶m

Diameter d=0.20 mm =0.20×10⁻³m

To find

Angle Θ in radians and degree

Solution

Circular apertures have first dark fringe at

Θ=(1.22λ)/d

Substitute the given values

So

Θ=[1.22(2.5×10⁻⁶m)]/0.20×10⁻³m

Θ=0.01525 rad

or

Θ=0.87°

You toss a ball straight up with an initial speed of 30m/s. How high does it go, and how long is it in the air (neglecting air r
Brut [27]

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball is tossed straight up with an initial speed of 30 m/s

We need to find the height it will go and the time it takes in the air.

At its maximum height, its final speed, v = 0 and it will move under the action of gravity. Using equation of motion :

v = u +at

Here, a = -g

v = u -gt

i.e. u = gt

t=\dfrac{u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{30\ m/s}{9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\t=3.06\ s

So, the time for upward motion is 3.06 seconds. It means that it will in air for 3.06×2 = 6.12 seconds

Let d is the maximum distance covered by it.

d=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Putting all values

d=30(3.06)-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (3.06)^2\\\\d=45.91\ m

Hence, it will go to a height of 45.91 m and it will in the air for 6.12 seconds.

Mary pushes a crate by applying force of 18 newtons. Unable to push it alone, she gets help from her friend, Anne. Together they
maw [93]
 <span>This problem is relatively simple, in order to solve this problem the only formula you need to know is the formula for friction, which is: 

Ff = UsN 

where Us is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force. 

In order to get the crate moving you must first apply enough force to overcome the static friction: 

Fapplied = Ff 

Since Fapplied = 43 Newtons: 

Fapplied = Ff = 43 = UsN 

and it was given that Us = 0.11, so all you have to do is isolate N by dividing both sides by 0.11 

43/0.11 = N = 390.9 which is approximately 391 or C. 3.9x10^2</span>

wlad13 [49]
The answers are A and D.

Engine oil reacts with rubber, changing its properties and causing it to expand. This will compromise rubber seals in the brake system and lead to a failure.

How does seismic waves cause earthquakes?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Seismic waves cause Earthquakes by shaking the ground aggressively and dangerously. These waves are usually calculated on a seismograph to calculate how hard the earthquake hit that area. A transform Boundary creates the tension when the tectonic plates gets stuck. It stays stuck for a long period of time. Then, at one point, the tectonic plates become unstuck which releases the tension into waves which are called seismic waves. Hope I answered you question.
