The answer to your question is 12 degrees because you subtract 42 degrees minus 30 degrees to get 12 degrees

Wouldn't mass stay the same and acceleration increase or am I mistaken?

Coherent light of wavelength 540 nm passes through a pair of thin slits that are 3.4 × 10-5 m apart. At what angle away from the

Scrat [10]

Answer: $1.8\°$

Explanation:

The diffraction angles $\theta_{n}$ when we have a slit divided into $n$ parts are obtained by the following equation:

$dsin\theta_{n}=n\lambda$ (1)

Where:

$d=3.4(10)^{-5}m$ is the width of the slit

$\lambda=540 nm=540(10)^{-9}m$ is the wavelength of the light

$n$ is an integer different from zero.

Now, the second-order diffraction angle is given when $n=2$ , hence equation (1) becomes:

$dsin\theta_{2}=2\lambda$ (2)

Now we have to find the value of $\theta_{2}$ :

$sin\theta_{2}=\frac{2\lambda}{d}$ (3)

Then:

$\theta_{2}=arcsin(\frac{2\lambda}{d})$ (4)

$\theta_{2}=arcsin(\frac{2(540(10)^{-9}m)}{3.4(10)^{-5}m})$ (5)

Finally:

$\theta_{2}=1.8\°$ (6)

In a closed system, a cart with a mass of 1.5 kg is rolling to the right at 1.4 m/s, while another cart of mass 1.0 kg is rollin

bija089 [108]

Answer: The correct option is (c.).

Explanation:

Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg

Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right

Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg

Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left

Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity

$P_A=1.5 kg\times 1.4 m/s=2.1 kg m/s$

$P_B=1.0 kg\times (-1.4m/s)=-1.4 kg m/s$

(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)

Total Momentum = $P_A+P_B=2.10 kg m/s-1.40 kg m/s=0.70 kg m/s$

Hence, the correct option is (c.).

An AC source is connected to a series combination of a light bulb and a variable capacitor. If the capacitance is increased, the

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

Since power P=IV

Then it means when current increases, the power increases hence brightness increases. I represent current, P is power and v is voltage.

Current of capacitor when in series connection is given by

$I=2\pi fCV$

where I is current across capacitor, f is frequency, C is capacitance and v is voltage across capacitance. From this second formula, it is evident that an increase in capacitance increases the current across the capacitor. Therefore, if current increases, power also increases leading to an increase in brightness
