In a double-slit experiment, if the central diffraction peak contains 13 interference fringes, how many fringes are contained wi
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Width of central diffraction peak is given by the following expression

Width of central diffraction peak= 2 λ D/ d₁

where d₁ is width of slit and D is screen distance and λ is wave length.

Width of other fringes become half , that is each of  secondary diffraction fringe is equal to

λ D/ d₁

Width of central interference  peak is given by the following expression

Width of  each of  bright fringe =  λ D/ d₂

where d₂ is width of slit and D is screen distance and λ is wave length.

Now given that the central diffraction peak contains 13 interference fringes

so ( 2 λ D/ d₁)  /  λ  D/ d₂ = 13

then (  λ D/ d₁)  /  λ  D/ d₂ = 13 / 2

= 6.5

no of fringes  contained within each secondary diffraction peak = 6.5

A rocket engine uses fuel and oxidizer in a reaction that produces gas particles having a velocity of 1380 ms The desired thrust
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

a. 141.3 kg/s b. 5.49 m/s² c. i. 104228.9 N ii. 8.53 m/s² d. i. 97305.2 N ii. 9.84 m/s²

Explanation:

a. What must be the fuel/oxidizer consumption rate (in kg s1)?

The thrust T = Rv where R = mass consumption rate and v = velocity of rocket. Since T = 195000 N and v = 1380 m/s,

R = T/v = 195000 N/1380 m/s = 141.3 kg/s

b. If the initial weight of the rocket is 125000 N, what is its initial acceleration?

We also know that thrust T - W = ma since the rocket has to move against gravity. where M = mass of rocket = W/g = 125000 N/9.8m/s² = 12755.1 kg, W = weight of rocket = 125000 N, a = acceleration of rocket and T = thrust = 195000 N.

So, T - W = Ma

195000 N - 125000 N = (12755.1 kg)a

70000 N = ma

a = 70000 N/12755.1 kg = 5.49 m/s²

c. What are the weight and acceleration of the rocket at t 15.0 s after ignition?

We know that the loss in mass ΔM = mass consumption rate × time = Rt. Since R = 141.3 kg/s and t = 15 s,

ΔM = 141.3 kg/s × 15 = 2119.5 kg

The new mass is thus M = M - ΔM = 12755.1 kg - 2119.5 kg = 10635.6 kg

i.The weight after 15 seconds is thus W' = M'g = 10635.6 kg × 9.8m/s² = 104228.9 N

ii. Since T - W' = M'a. where M' is our new mass and a our new acceleration,

a = (T - W')/M'

= (195000 N - 104228.9 N)/10635.6 kg

= 90771.1 N/10635.6 kg

= 8.53 m/s²

d. What are the weight and acceleration of the rocket at 20.0 s after ignition?

We know that the loss in mass ΔM" = mass consumption rate × time = Rt. Since R = 141.3 kg/s and t = 20 s,

ΔM" = 141.3 kg/s × 20 = 2826 kg

The new mass is thus M" = M - ΔM" = 12755.1 kg - 2826 kg = 9929.1 kg

i. The weight after 20 seconds is thus W" = M"g = 9929.1 kg × 9.8m/s² = 97305.2 N

ii. Since T - W" = M"a. where M" is our new mass and a our new acceleration,

a = (T - W")/M"

= (195000 N - 97305.2 N)/9929.1 kg

= 97694.8 N/9929.1 kg

= 9.84 m/s²

A wire that is 0.65 m long and carrying a current of 8.2 A is at right angles to a uniform magnetic field. The force on the wire
Luda [366]

Answer:

0.075 T

Explanation:

When a current-carrying wire is immersed in a region with magnetic field, the wire experiences a force, given by

F=ILB sin \theta

where

I is the current in the wire

L is the length of the wire

B is the strength of the magnetic field

\theta is the angle between the direction of I and B

In this problem we have:

L = 0.65 m is the length of the wire

I = 8.2 A is the current in the wire

F = 0.40 N is the force experienced by the wire

\theta=90^{\circ} since the current is at right angle with the magnetic field

Solving the formula for B, we find the strength of the magnetic field:

B=\frac{F}{IL sin \theta}=\frac{0.40}{(8.2)(0.65)(sin 90^{\circ})}=0.075 T

a ball of mass 16 kg on the end of a string is spun at a constant speed of 2 m/s in a horizontal circle with a radius of 1m. Wha
miss Akunina [59]

The work done by the centripetal force during om complete revolution is 401.92 J.

<h3>What is centripetal force?</h3>

Centripetal force is a force that acts on a body undergoing a circular motion and is directed towards the center of the circle in which the body is moving.

To Calculate the work done by the centripetal force during one complete revolution, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • W = (mv²/r)2πr
  • W = 2πmv²................... Equation 1

Where:

  • W = Work done by the centripetal force
  • m = mass of the ball
  • v = velocity of the ball
  • π = pie

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 16 kg
  • v = 2 m/s
  • π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • W = 2×3.14×16×2²
  • W = 401.92 J

Hence, The work done by the centripetal force during om complete revolution is 401.92 J.

Light travels in a straight line at a constant speed of 300000 m/s. What is the acceleration of light?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

As light travels in a straight line at a constant speed, it's acceleration is <u>0 m/s²</u>.

There is no rate of change of speed, so there is no acceleration.

  • <u>0 m/s²</u> is the right answer.
