C. The daughters received a random set of genes from both of their parents
Answer:
When a light wave goes through a slit, it is diffracted, which means the slit opening acts as a new source of waves. How much a light wave diffracts<em> (how much it fans out)</em> depends on the wavelength of the incident light. The wavelength must be larger than the width of the slit for the maximum diffraction. Thus, for a given slit, red light, because it has a longer wavelength, diffracts more than the blue light.
The corresponding relation for diffraction is
,
where
is the wavelength of light,
is the slit width, and
is the diffraction angle.
From this relation we clearly see that the diffraction angle
is directly proportional to the wavelength
of light—longer the wavelength larger the diffraction angle.
i'm stuck on that question also
Complete question:
A block of solid lead sits on a flat, level surface. Lead has a density of 1.13 x 104 kg/m3. The mass of the block is 20.0 kg. The amount of surface area of the block in contact with the surface is 2.03*10^-2*m2, What is the average pressure (in Pa) exerted on the surface by the block? Pa
Answer:
The average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa
Explanation:
Given;
density of the lead, ρ = 1.13 x 10⁴ kg/m³
mass of the lead block, m = 20 kg
surface area of the area of the block, A = 2.03 x 10⁻² m²
Determine the force exerted on the surface by the block due to its weight;
F = mg
F = 20 x 9.8
F = 196 N
Determine the pressure exerted on the surface by the block
P = F / A
where;
P is the pressure
P = 196 / (2.03 x 10⁻²)
P = 9655.17 N/m²
P = 9655.17 Pa
Therefore, the average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa
