What is the approximate wavelength of a light whose first-order bright band forms a diffraction angle of 45.0° when it passes

1 answer:

7 0

** Missing info: Lines per mm = 500 **

Ans: The wavelength is = λ = 1414.21 nm

Explanation:
The formula for diffraction grading is:

dsinθ = mλ --- (1)

Where
d = 1/lines-per-meter = (1/500)*10^-3 = 2 * 10^-6
m = order = 1
λ = wavelength
θ = 45°

Plug in the values in (1):
(1) => 2*10^-6*sin(45°) = (1)λ
=> λ = 1414.21 nm

Each vertical line on the graph is 1 millisecond (0.001 s) of time. What is the period and

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Each vertical line on the graph is 1 millisecond (0.001 s) of time.

We need to find the period and the frequency of the sound wave. The period of a wave is equal to the each vertical line on graph i.e. 0.001 s.

Let f be the frequency of the sound wave. So,

f = 1/T

i.e.

$f=\dfrac{1}{0.001 }\\\\f=1000\ Hz$

So, the period and the frequency of the sound waves is 1 milliseond and 1000 Hz respectively.

Calculate the period (T) of uniform circular motion if the velocity is 40.0 m/s and centripetal acceleration is 20.0 m/s2.

kirill [66]

T is the time for a whole round.

centripetal acceleration = V^2/R,

20 = 40^2 / R, find R = 40^2/20 = 40*40/20 = 80 m, right?

Now, one round is L = 2*pi*R = 2*pi*80 = 160*pi

And T = L/v (distance/speed) = 160*pi/40 = 4*pi seconds, or ~ 12.57 s

What is the magnitude of the velocity of a 25 kg mass that is moving with a momentum of 100 kg*m/s?

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

v= 4 m/s

Explanation:

Momenutm is, by definition, the product of mass and velocity.

$p = mv$

Let's replace what we know and solve for whatever's left

$100 kg\cdot m/s = 25kg \cdot v \rightarrow v= 4 m/s$

The gas pressure inside a container decreases when

avanturin [10]

Answer:

When the volume increases or when the temperature decreases

Explanation:

The ideal gas equation states that:

$pV= nRT$

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles of gas

R is the gas constant

T is the gas temperature

Assuming that we have a fixed amount of gas, so n is constant, we can rewrite the equation as

$\frac{pV}{T}=const.$

which means the following:

- Pressure is inversely proportional to the volume: this means that the pressure decreases when the volume increases

- Pressure is directly proportional to the temperature: this means that the pressure decreases when the temperature decreases

Two charged objects separated by some distance attract each other. If the charges on both objects are doubled with no change in

Serggg [28]

Answer:

(a) The force between them quadruples

Explanation:

According to coulomb's law, initial force between the two charged objects is given as;

$F_1=\frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

where;

k is coulomb's constant

q₁ is the charge on the first object

q₂ is the charge on the second object

r is the distance between the two objects

When the charges on both objects are doubled, then;

q₁ = 2q₁

q₂ = 2q₂

Force between the two charged objects will become

$F_2 = \frac{K2q_12q_2}{r^2} = \frac{4Kq_1q_2}{r^2} = 4(\frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}) = 4F_1$

Therefore, the force between them quadruples
