The equation we use is mλ=dsinθ for intensity maximas. We are given at the first maximum (m=1), it occurs at 17.8 degrees. Thus we can solve for d by substituting known values into our equation.

(1) (632.8*10^-9m)=dsin(17.8) => d = 2.07*10^-6m

Next we want to find the angle at the second maximum (m=2) so we need to solve for θ.

(2) (632.8*10^-9m) = (2.07*10^-6m)sinθ

θ=37.69 degrees

Hopes this helps!

P.S. I hope this is right. If not sorry in advance.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]
<span>Data organization is extremely important in science. One must be able to display data in a way that others can look at it and easily understand what's being said. This takes us to line charts, which are great for showing how something increases or decreases over an amount of time. Another example would be a pie chart which could show the percentages of different matter that makes up a full object.</span>

A 1.150 kg air-track glider is attached to each end of the track by two coil springs. It takes a horizontal force of 0.900 N to
shutvik [7]

k = 5.29

a = 0.78m/s²

KE = 0.0765J

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass of air tracker, m = 1.15kg

Force, F = 0.9N

distance, x = 0.17m

(a) Effective spring constant, k = ?

Force = kx

0.9 = k X0.17

k = 5.29

(b) Maximum acceleration, m = ?

We know,

Force = ma

0.9N = 1.15 X a

a = 0.78 m/s²

c) kinetic energy, KE of the glider at x = 0.00 m.

The work done as the glider was moved = Average force * distance

This work is converted into kinetic energy when the block is released. The maximum kinetic energy occurs when the glider has moved 0.17m back to position x = 0  

As the glider is moved 0.17m, the average force = ½ * (0 + 0.9)

Work = Kinetic energy

KE = 0.450 * 0.17

KE = 0.0765J

An object is moving to the left with a constant speed. What can be concluded about the forces acting upon the object?
MariettaO [177]

Answer: sum of forces is zero

Explanation: acording to the newton first law you can say that the sum of the forces acting over the object is zero no matter the direction of movement

good luck

if the vessel in the sample problem accelerates fir 1.00 min, what will its speed be after that minute ?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answers:

a) 154.08 m/s=554.68 km/h

b) 108 m/s=388.8 km/h

Explanation:

<u>The complete question is written below: </u>

<u></u>

<em>In 1977 off the coast of Australia, the fastest speed by a vessel on the water was achieved. If this vessel were to undergo an average acceleration of 1.80 m/s^{2}, it would go from rest to its top speed in 85.6 s.  </em>

<em>a) What was the speed of the vessel? </em>

<em> </em>

<em>b) If the vessel in the sample problem accelerates for 1.00 min, what will its speed be after that minute? </em>

<em></em>

<em>Calculate the answers in both meters per second and kilometers per hour</em>

<em></em>

a) The average acceleration a_{av} is expressed as:

a_{av}=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}=\frac{V-V_{o}}{\Delta t} (1)

Where:

a_{av}=1.80 m/s^{2}

\Delta V is the variation of velocity in a given time \Delta t, which is the difference between the final velocity V and the initial velocity V_{o}=0 (because it starts from rest).

\Delta t=85.6 s

Isolating V from (1):

V=a_{av}\Delta t + V_{o} (2)

V=(1.80 m/s^{2})(85.6 s) + 0 m/s (3)

V=154.08 \frac{m}{s} (4)

If 1 km=1000m and 1 h=3600 s then:

V=154.08 \frac{m}{s}=554.68 \frac{km}{h} (4)

b) Now we need to find the final velocity when \Delta t=1 min=60 s:

<em></em>

V=(1.80 m/s^{2})(60 s) + 0 m/s (5)

V=108 \frac{m}{s}=388.8 \frac{km}{h} (6)

An electron is accelerated from rest by a potential difference of 412 V. It then enters a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 18
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Potential difference, V = 412 V

Magnitude of magnetic field, B = 188 mT

(a) The potential energy of electron is balanced by its kinetic energy as :

eV=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v is speed of the electron

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2eV}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 412}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}} \\\\v=1.2\times 10^7\ m/s

(b) When the charged particle moves in magnetic field, it will move in circular path. The radius of the circular path is given by :

r=\dfrac{mv}{eB}\\\\r=\dfrac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.2\times 10^7}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 188\times 10^{-3}}\\\\r=3.63\times 10^{-4}\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.
