Yung's experiment is performed with light of wavelength 502 nm from excited helium atoms. Fringes are measured carefully on a sc

reen 1.10 m away from the double slit, and the center of the 20th fringe (not counting the central bright fringe) is found to be 10.2 mm from the center of the central bright fringe. What is the separation of the two slits?

Answer:

1.082 mm

Explanation:

From the question, we can see that we were given The following

Wavelength of the atoms, λ = 502 nm = 502*10^-9 m

Radius of the screen away from the double slit, r = 1.1 m

We know that Y(20) = 10.2 mm = 10.2*10^-3 m

d = (20 * R * λ) / Y(20)

d = (20 * 1.1 * 502*10^-9)/10.2*10^-3

d = 1.1*10^-5 / 10.2*10^-3

d = 1.082 mm

Therefore, we can say that the distance of separation between the two slits is 1.082 mm

16. The energy absorbed in 10minutes by an electrical heater is 1.5 MJ. The supply voltage is 240 V. calculate: a) The current d
dsp73

Answer:

If by 1.5 MJ you mean 1.5E6 Joules then

W = P t    = power X time

W / t = P   power

P = 1.5E6 J / 600 sec = 2500 J / s

P = I V

a) I = 2500 J/s / (240 J/c) = 10.4 C / sec  = 10.4 amps

b) Q = I t = 10.4 C / sec * 300 sec = 3120 Coulombs

c)  E = P * t = 2500 J / sec * 100 hr * 3600 sec / hr = 9.0E8 Joules

A solid concrete block weighs 150. N and is resting on the ground. Its dimensions are 0.400 m ✕ 0.200 m ✕ 0.100 m. A number of i
N76 [4]

Answer:

27 blocks

Explanation:

First, the expression to use here is the following:

P = F/A

Where:

P: pressure

F: Force exerted

A: Area of the block.

Now , we need to know the number of blocks needed to exert a pressure that equals at least 2 atm. To know this, we should rewrite the equation. We know that certain number of blocks, with the same weight and dimensions are putting one after one over the first block, so we can say that:

P = W/A

P = n * W1 / A

n would be the number of blocks, and W1 the weight of the block.We have all the data, and we need to calculate the area of the block which is:

A = 0.2 * 0.1 = 0.02 m²

Solving now for n:

n = P * A / W1

The pressure has to be expressed in N/m²

P = 2 atm * 1.01x10^5 N/m² atm = 2.02x10^5 N/m²

Finally, replacing all data we have:

n = 2.02x10^5 * 0.02 / 150

n = 26.93

We can round this result to 27. So the minimum number of blocks is 27.

Why are the plates in a capacitor parallel to each other?
TiliK225 [7]
To have a uniform field. The field is the voltage between the plates divided by the distance between the plates. If the distance varies so would the field between them.
