Parallel rays of monochromatic light with wavelength 582 nm illuminate two identical slits and produce an interference pattern o

n a screen that is 75.0 cm from the slits. The centers of the slits are 0.640 mm apart and the width of each slit is 0.434 mm. If the intensity at the center of the central maximum is 4.40×10^−4 W/m^2.
Required:
What is the intensity at a point on the screen that is 0.710 mm from the center of the central maximum?

Answer:

What is the intensity is 1.3349 × 10⁻⁷ w/m²

Explanation:

Given that;

λ = 582 nm = 582 × 10⁻⁹

R = 75.0 cm = 0.75 m

d = 0.640 mm = 0.000640 m

a = 0.434 mm = 0.000434 m

I₀ =  4.40×10⁻⁴ W/m²

y = 0.710 mm  = 0.00071 m

Now to get our tanФ we say

tanФ = y/R =  0.00071 / 0.75 = 0.0009466  

Ф is so small

∴ tanФ ≈ sinФ

So

∅ = 2πdsinФ / λ

we substitute

∅ = ( 2π × 0.000640 × 0.0009466  ) /  582 × 10⁻⁹

=  6.54 rad

Now

β = 2πasinФ / λ

we substitute

β = ( 2π × 0.000434 × 0.0009466  ) /  582 × 10⁻⁹

β = 4.435 rad

I = I₀ cos²(∅/2) [(sin(β/2))/(β/2)]²

we substitute

I = 4.40×10⁻⁴ cos(3.27)² [ (sin(2.2175)) / (2.2175) ]²  

= 4.40×10⁻⁴ × 0.9967 × 0.0003044

= 1.3349 × 10⁻⁷ w/m²

Collapse question part Part 4 (d) What is the unit vector in the direction of the spacecraft's velocity? (Express your answer in
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

Explanation:

Given:

                            v =  (-23.2, -104.4, 46.4) m/s

Above expression describes spacecraft's velocity vector v.

Find:

Find unit vector in the direction of spacecraft velocity v.

Solution:

Step 1: Compute magnitude of velocity vector.

                            mag (v) = sqrt ( 23.2^2 + 104.4^2 + 46.4^2)

                            mag (v) = 116.58 m/s

Step 2: Compute unit vector unit (v)

                            unit (v) = vec (v) / mag (v)

                            unit (v) = [ -23.2 i -104.4 j + 46.4 k ] / 116.58

                            unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

Calculate the wavelength λ1 for gamma rays of frequency f1 = 7.20×1021 hz .
bagirrra123 [75]
The relationship between wavelength \lambda, frequency f and speed of light c for an electromagnetic wave is
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
Using the data of the problem, we find
\lambda= \frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s }{7.20 \cdot 10^{21} Hz}=4.17 \cdot 10^{-14} m

What color would a yellow cloth appear to have if illuminated with sunlight?
den301095 [7]
The colour we see is a measure of the wavelengths of light nor absorbed by the cloth. We would call the colour of the cloth blue if it absorbed longer wavelengths of yellow/orange/red. Sunlight contains all the visible wavelengths. Whatever is not absorbed is reflected.

Ezekiel pushes a 34 kg sled with 101 N for 8.0 m. How much work did he do on the sled?
Simora [160]

Answer: 810 J

Explanation: work W = F·s = 101 N · 8.0 m = 808 J

Force F = u mg = 101 N in which u is friction constant. Also mass is included in force.
