Answer: hello the complete question is attached below
answer :
r2 = 4r1
Explanation:
Electric field strength = F / q
we will assume the rod has an infinite length
For an infinitely charged rod
E ∝ 1/ r
considering two electric fields E1 and E2 at two different locations as described in the question
E1/E2 = r1/r2 ----- ( 2 )
<u>Calculate for r2 when E2 = E1/4 </u>
back to equation 2
E1 / (E1/4) = r1 / r2
∴ r2 = 4r1
Answer:
- path differnce = 2.18*10^-6
- 1538 lines
Explanation:
- The path difference for the waves that produce the pattern of diffraction, is given by the following formula:
(1)
d: separation between slits = 0.50mm = 0.50*10^-3 m
θ: angle of a diffraction = 0.25°
Then, the path difference is:

- The maximum number of bright lines are calculated by using the following formula:
(2)
m: order of the bright
λ: wavelength = 650nm
The maximum bright is calculated for an angle of 90°:

The maxium number of bright lines are twice the previous result, that is, 1538 lines
