In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the

first light source has a wavelength of 646 nm. Two different interference patterns are observed. If the 9th order bright fringe from the first light source coincides with the 11th order bright fringe from the second light source, what is the wavelength of the light coming from the second monochromatic light source?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let λ be the required wavelength.

Two fringe patterns will be formed on the screen which will overlap each other. Let 9 th bright fringe of first coincides with 11 th bright fringe of second.

position of 9 the bright fringe of first = 9x 646 x D/d nm

position of 11 th bright fringe of second pattern = 11 x λ x D/d

now , 9 x 646 = 11 x λ

λ = 9 x 646 / 11 = 528.54 nm.

The current and the potential difference in an inductor are in phase. B. The current lags the potential difference by π/2 in an

slava [35]

Answer:

The current lags the potential difference by π/2 in an inductor

Explanation:

The potential difference leads to the current by $\frac{\pi}{2}$ . Alternate signals such as current and voltage -in this case- are periodic, this means that this signals are repeated at fixed spaces of time. Thus, In an inductor the current lags the potential difference by $\frac{\pi}{2}$ .

A 2kg mass is initially at rest on a frictionless surface. A 45N force acts at an angle of 300

raketka [301]

Answer:

a) The work done by the force is 136.400 joules.

b) The speed of the mass at the end of the 3.5 meters is approximately 11.679 meters per second.

Explanation:

The correct statement is shown below:

<em>A 2-kg mass is initially at reat on a frictionless surface. A 45 N force acts at an angle of 30º to the horizontal for a distance of 3.5 meters:</em>

<em>a)</em><em> Find the work done by the force.</em>

<em>b)</em><em> Find the speed of the mass at the end of the 3.5 meters.</em>

a) Given that a external constant force is acting on the mass on a frictionless surface, the work done by the force ( $W_{F}$ ), measured in joules, is:

$W_{F} = F\cdot \Delta s \cdot \cos \theta$ (1)

Where:

$F$ - External constant force exerted on the mass, measured in newtons.

$\Delta s$ - Horizontal travelled distance, measured in meters.

$\theta$ - Direction of the external force regarding the horizontal, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

If we know that $F = 45\,N$ , $\Delta s = 3.5\,m$ and $\theta = 30^{\circ}$ , then the work done by the force is:

$W_{F} = (45\,N)\cdot (3.5\,m)\cdot \cos 30^{\circ}$

$W_{F} = 136.400\,J$

The work done by the force is 136.400 joules.

b) The final speed of the mass at the end ot the 3.5 meter is calculated by means of the Work-Energy Theorem, which means that the work done on the mass is transformed into a translational kinetic energy. That is:

$W_{F} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{2}^{2}-v_{1}^{2})$ (2)

Where:

$m$ - Mass, measured in kilograms.

$v_{1}$ , $v_{2}$ - Initial and final speeds of the mass, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $W_{F} = 136.400\,J$ , $m = 2\,kg$ and $v_{1} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the final speed of the mass is:

$\frac{2\cdot W_{F}}{m} = v_{2}^{2}-v_{1}^{2}$

$v_{2}^{2} =v_{1}^{2}+\frac{2\cdot W_{F}}{m}$

$v_{2} =\sqrt{v_{1}^{2}+\frac{2\cdot W_{F}}{m} }$

$v_{2} =\sqrt{\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\frac{2\cdot (136.400\,J)}{2\,kg} }$

$v_{2} \approx 11.679\,\frac{m}{s}$

The speed of the mass at the end of the 3.5 meters is approximately 11.679 meters per second.

What are the materials necessary to create an electromagnet?

klemol [59]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Electromagnet: It is a temporary magnet. It consists of wrapping coils around iron core and the power source. When the current passes through the coils around the iron core then it will get magnetized. The domains of the electromagnet gets aligned.

As long as the current passes through it, it will get magnetized. It will loose its magnetism easily when the power is switched off.

In the electromagnet, the strength of the magnetism can be increased or decreased. The poles of the electromagnet are not fixed.
