When laser light of wavelength 632.8 nm passes through a diffraction grating, the first bright spots occur at ± 17.8 ∘ from the

central maximum. at what angles do the second bright spots occur?

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.

In a compression wave, particles in the medium move
nikdorinn [45]

in the same direction as the wave

Explanation:

In a compression wave, the particles in the medium moves in the same direction as the wave source.

A wave is generally defined as a disturbance that transmits energy.

  • There are two types of waves based on the direction through which they are propagated.
  • Transverse waves are directed perpendicularly in the direction of propagation.
  • Examples are electromagnetic waves.
  • Longitudinal waves are parallel to their source. Examples are sound waves, p-waves.
  • They are made up of series of rarefaction and compression.

You do 120 j of work while pulling your sister back on a swing, whose chain is 5.10 m long. you start with the swing hanging ver
Goryan [66]
The work done to pull the sister back on the swing is equal to the increase in potential energy of the sister:
W= \Delta U = mg \Delta h (1)

where m is the sister's mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and \Delta h is the increase in altitude of the sister with respect to its initial position.

By calling \theta the angle of the chain with respect to the vertical, the increase in altitude is given by
\Delta h = L - L \cos \theta = L(1 - \cos \theta) (2)
where L is the length of the chain.

Putting (2) inside (1), we find
W= m g L (1 - \cos \theta)
from which we can find the mass of the sister:
m =  \frac{W}{g L (1 - \cos \theta)} =  \frac{120 J}{(9.81 m/s^2)(5.10 m)(1- \cos 32.0^{\circ})} =15.8 kg

nevsk [136]

Answer:

A. 2.2*10^-2m

Explanation:

Using

Area = length x L/ uo xN²

So A = 0.7m * 25 x 10^-3H /( 4π x10^-7*

3000²)

A = 17.5*10^-3/ 1.13*10^-5

= 15.5*10^-2m²

Area= π r ²

15.5E-2/3.142 = r²

2.2*10^2m

a skinny girl devours food that is equivalent to 600 kcal, as she is anorexic she repents and wants to lose twice as many calori
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done in lifting the weight once = mgh

= 20 x 9.8 x (1.9+1.7)

= 705.6 J  

= 705.6 / 4.2 calorie

= 168 cals

Total energy to be spent = 600 x 10³ cals

No of times weight is required to be lifted

= 600 x 10³ / 168

= 3.57  x 10³ times

Total time to be taken = 2 x 3.57 x 10³

= 7.14 x 10³ s

=119 minutes .
