Monochromatic light passes through a double slit, producing interference, the distance between the slit centres is 1.2 mm and th

Alik [6]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light is $7200\ \AA$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slit centers d= 1.2 mm

Distance between constructive fringes $\beta= 0.3\ cm$

Distance between fringe and screen D= 5 m

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of width

$\beta=\dfrac{D\lambda}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$0.3\times10^{-2}=\dfrac{5\times\lambda}{1.2\times10^{-3}}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{0.3\times10^{-2}\times1.2\times10^{-3}}{5}$

$\lambda=7.2\times10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=7200\ \AA$

Hence, The wavelength of the light is $7200\ \AA$ .

Assume a maximum stopping acceleration of g/2 where g is acceleration due to gravity.

Answer:

2.99 m/s

Explanation:

Stopping distance, s = 3 ft = 0.914 m

final velocity, v = 0

a = g/2 = 4.9 m/s²

Use third equation of motion:

$v^2-u^2 = 2as$

substitute the values to find the speed of train:

$0 -u^2 = 2\times -4.9 \times 0.914 \\u^2=8.96 \\u=2.99 m/s$

A capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 3 volt it delivers 30% store energy to lamp what is the final potential diff

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

3.98V

Explanation:

Given

Pontential difference V as 3v

Energy delivered is 30%,

Recall that Enery E=1/2cv^2 from this E=V^2(since Current C is not provided we can assume a value 2)

So E=V^2

E=3^2=9

At full charge E=9,30%of 9,0.3*9=2.7 energy in capacitor is 9-2.7=6.3

But E=V^2

✓E=V

✓6.3=3.98V
