When hydrogen is heated or subjected to an electric discharge, it emits light with specific visible wavelengths. A diffraction g

rating having a spacing between adjacent lines of 4926 nm is used in an experiment to study the visible spectrum of hydrogen. The hydrogen light is sent through the grating and the light emitted by the hydrogen at 656 nm is observed. At what angle does the fourth order bright fringe occur for this specific wavelenth of light occur?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the double slit-experiment. For which we will relate the distance between the Slits and the Diffraction Angle with the order of the bright fringe and the wavelength, this is mathematically given as,

d sin\theta = m\lambda

Here,

d = Distance between Slits

m = Order of the fringes

\lambda = Wavelength

\text{Spacing between adjacent lines} = d = 4926nm

\text{Wavelength of light} = \lambda = 656nm

Rearranging to find the angle,

sin\theta = \frac{m\lambda}{d}

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{m\lambda}{d})

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{(4)(656*10^{-9}m)}{4926*10^{-9}m})

\theta = 32.19\°

Therefore the angle that the fourth order bright fringe occur for this specific wavelenth of light occur is 32.19°

the apparent weight of a body wholly immersed in water is 32N and its weight in 96N and calculate volume of the body
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

0.0065 m³

Explanation:

Apparent weight = weight − buoyancy

32 N = 96 N − (1000 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²) V

V = 0.0065 m³

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 m/s^2

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles =  40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles  =  64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = \frac{1}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{30}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{1}{2}hours

Now

Average velocity = \frac{Speed}{time}

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = \frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}

Average velocity = 64.3738 \times 2

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting  velocity to m/s

128.74  \times \frac{5}{18}

=>35.75 m/s----------------------------------------------------------(1)

kinetic energy  K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Substituting the values,

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(35.75)^2

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(1278.06)

K= \frac{1500 \times (1278.06)}{2}

K= \frac{1917093.75}{2}

K=958546.875 Joule---------------------------------------------(2)

(c)When the driver applies the brake, it takes 15 seconds to stop. How far does the car travel (in meters) while stopping

Lets use Distance formula,

S= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substituting the known values,

s= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

s= (37.75)(15)+\frac{1}{2}a(15)^2

s=566.25+\frac{1}{2}a(225)

s=566.25+\frac{(225a)}{2}-------------------------------------(3)

(D) What is the average acceleration of the car (in m/s2) during braking?

Using the formula

v=u +at

re arranging the formula we get,

a = \frac{v - u}{t}

Substituting the values

a = \frac{0 - 35.75}{15}

a = \frac{- 35.75}{15}

a= - 2.38 m/s^2----------------------------------------(4)

Now substituting 4 in 3 we get

s=566.25+\frac{(225( - 2.38)}{2}

s=566.25+\frac{-535.5}{2}

s=536.25-267.75

s=268.8m--------------------------------------------------------------(5)

An astronaut on the moon places a package on a scale and finds its weight to be 10. N. () What would the weight of the package
jeka94

Answer:

(a) 61.25 N

(b) 6.25 kg

(c) 6.25 Kg

Explanation:

Weight on moon = 10 N

Acceleration due to gravity on moon = 1.6 m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s^2

Let m be the mass of the package.

(a) Weight on earth = mass x acceleration due to gravity on earth

Weight on earth = 6.25 x 9.8 = 61.25 N

(b) Weight on moon = mass x acceleration due to gravity on moon

10 = m x 1.6

m = 6.25 kg

(c) Mass of the package remains same as mass does not change, so the mass of package on earth is 6.25 kg.

How do the wavelengths of electromagnetic energy absorbed by materials on earth compare?
Dmitrij [34]

Explanation:

The shorter wavelength electromagnetic waves from sun are absorbed by earth material in form of short wavelength and the radiated wavelength are longer ones. Also higher energy waves are of shorter wavelength and lower energy waves have longer wavelength. So, they are absorbed as short wavelength and radiated back as long wavelength.
