Answer:

the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2

Explanation:

To find how the distance between fringes is modified you can use the following formula for the calculation of the distance between fringes:

\Delta y=\frac{\lambda D}{d}

D: distance to the screen

d: distance between slits

λ: wavelength of the light

if d is decreased by a factor of 2, that is d'=1/2d, you have:

\Delta y'=\frac{\lambda D}{d'}=\frac{\lambda D}{(1/2)d}=2\Delta y

hence, the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2

A kayaker moves 22 meters northward, then 18 meters southward , and finally 24 meters northward what is the distance and magnitu
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Distance = 64 metres

Displacement = 28 metres

Direction = northward

Explanation:

Given that a  kayaker moves 22 meters northward, then 18 meters southward , and finally 24 meters northward

Distance covered is only about the magnitude of the length covered.

Distance = 22 + 18 + 24 = 64 metres

The direction will be considered when calculating the displacement

Let northward be positive and southward be negative

Displacement = 22 - 18 + 24 = 28 metres

Since the displacement is positive, the direction of the motion is northward.

Select answer about motion and newtons law and explain why it's correct 23POINTS NEED ASAP
zlopas [31]

The train would need the greatest amount of force due to weight! If you think of it, a baseball won't need much force to stop it, but if you have a heavy train, it will need excessive force to stop the train. The answer would be #3


I hope this answer helps!

Sorry if it doesn't make sense, as I don't know that much about physics! I am just thinking of what makes sense.
