The spreading of waves behind an aperture is more for long wavelengths and less for short wavelengths.Less for long wavelengths
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Increase in wavelength of incident wave also increases the spread angle or spread of the interference pattern.

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The diffraction occurs when light bends in the same medium. The bending is the result of light waves "squeezing" through small openings or "curving" around sharp edges.

- Moreover, waves diffract best when the size of the diffraction opening (or grting or groove) corresponds to the size of the wavelength. Hence, light diffracts more through small openings than through larger openings.

- The formula for diffraction shows a direct relationship between the angle of diffraction (theta) and wavelength:

                                         d sin (θ) = m λ

Where,

     λ : Wavelength , θ : The spread angle , d : Slit opening or grating

- We can see that the wavelength λ and spread angle θ are related proportionally. So if we increase the wavelength of incident wave we also increase the spread angle or spread of the interference pattern.

A ball is thrown straight up into the air. At each of the following instants, is the ball's acceleration ay equal to g, −g, 0, g
Leto [7]

Answer:

a= (-g) from the moment the ball is thrown, until it stops in the air.

a = (0) when the ball stops in the air.

a = (g) since the ball starts to fall.

Explanation:

The acceleration is <em>(-g)</em> <em>from the moment the ball is thrown, until it stops in the air</em> because the movement goes in the opposite direction to the force of gravity. In the instant <em>when the ball stops in the air the acceleration is </em><em>(0)</em> because it temporarily stops moving. Then, <em>since the ball starts to fall, the acceleration is </em><em>(g)</em><em> </em>because the movement goes in the same direction of the force of gravity

A rocket ship in space is at rest relative to a rock floating in deep space. The
Lesechka [4]
So the equation used in this problem is ΔX=V0*T+1/2AT^2 the X is the distance, v0 is initial velocity, T is time, and a is acceleration. So when we plug these values it we get: 108= 0•T+1/2•3•T^2,the 0•t disappears, and the 1/2•3 gets us 1.5, so we have 108=1.5T^2, then we divide 108 by 1.5 which gets us 72=t^2, and we then take the square root and get 8.49=T so the answer is 8.49 seconds.

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 1.86
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

t = 1.09 s.

Explanation:

This is a one-dimensional kinematics question, so the equations of kinematics will be sufficient to solve the question.

y-y_0 = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2\\0 - 3.82 = 1.86t +\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)t^2\\-3.82 = 1.86t - \frac{1}{2}9.8t^2\\4.9t^2 - 1.86t - 3.82 = 0

This quadratic equation can be solved using determinant.

\Delta = b^2 - 4ac\\t_{1,2} = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}\\t_1 = 1.09~s\\t_2 = -0.71~s

Of course, we will choose the positive time.
