Answer

Correct answer is amplitude

Explanation:

Frequency: frequency is the number of complete waves which passes through a point in one second. SI unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz). Frequency depends on Wavelength. Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength. It means if wavelength of wave is higher, then its frequency will be shorter.

Wavelength: wavelength is the distance between adjacent crests. SI unit of wavelength is meters. Wavelength depends on frequency. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, it means if frequency of wave is higher, then its wavelength will be shorter.

Speed : Speed of wave is defined as the speed with which a wave propagate in a medium or vacuum. SI unit of speed is m/s. Wave speed depends on wavelength and frequency by following equation

$speed=frequency\times wavelength$

Amplitude: Amplitude is the height of the wave. SI unit of amplitude is meter. Amplitude is independent of frequency, wavelength and speed. So it is correct answer

Light of wavelength 400 nm is incident on a single slit of width 15 microns. If a screen is placed 2.5 m from the slit. How far

olganol [36]

Answer:

0.0667 m

Explanation:

λ = wavelength of light = 400 nm = 400 x 10⁻⁹ m

D = screen distance = 2.5 m

d = slit width = 15 x 10⁻⁶ m

n = order = 1

θ = angle = ?

Using the equation

d Sinθ = n λ

(15 x 10⁻⁶) Sinθ = (1) (400 x 10⁻⁹)

Sinθ = 26.67 x 10⁻³

y = position of first minimum

Using the equation for small angles

tanθ = Sinθ = y/D

26.67 x 10⁻³ = y/2.5

y = 0.0667 m

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

The momentum of the first piece = m v =- m x 31 i kg m/s in - x direction direction

The momentum of the second piece = -m x 31 j kg m /s in Y - direction

Total momentum = - 31 m( i + j )

To conserve momentum , the third piece must have momentum equal to this

and opposite to it

So momentum of the third piece = 3m x V = 31 m ( i +j )

V = 31/3 ( i + j ) =

Magnitude of velocity V = √2 x 31/ 3 = 14.6 m / s

Its direction will be towards the vector i + j ie 45° from x - axis in positive direction
