A flat screen is located 0.55 m away from a single slit. Light with a wavelength of 544 nm (in vacuum) shines through the slit a

nd produces a diffraction pattern. The width of the central bright fringe on the screen is 0.052 m. What is the width of the slit?

Answer:

Explanation:

The diffraction pattern is given as

Sinθ = mλ/ω

Where m=1,2,3,4....

Now, when m=1

Sinθ = λ/ω

Then,

ω = λ/Sinθ

The width of the central bright fringe is given as

y=2Ltanθ. From trigonometric

Then,

θ=arctan(y/2L)

Given that,

y=0.052m

L=0.55m

θ=arctan(0.052/2×0.55)

θ=arctan(0.0473)

θ=2.71°

Substituting this into

ω = λ/Sinθ

Since λ=544nm=544×10^-9m

Then,

ω = 544×10^-9/Si.2.71

ω = 1.15×10^-5m.

A square is 1.0 m on a side. Point charges of +4.0 μC are placed in two diagonally opposite corners. In the other two corners ar
finlep [7]

Answer:

<em>B) 1.0 × 10^5 V</em>

Explanation:

<u>Electric Potential Due To Point Charges </u>

The electric potential produced from a point charge Q at a distance r from the charge is

\displaystyle V=k\frac{Q}{r}

The total electric potential for a system of point charges is equal to the sum of their individual potentials. This is a scalar sum, so direction is not relevant.

We must compute the total electric potential in the center of the square. We need to know the distance from all the corners to the center. The diagonal of the square is

d=\sqrt2 a

where a is the length of the side.

The distance from any corner to the center is half the diagonal, thus

\displaystyle r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}

\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=0.707\ m

The total potential is  

V_t=V_1+V_2+V_3+V_4

Where V1 and V2 are produced by the +4\mu C charges and V3 and V4 are produced by the two opposite charges of \pm 3\mu\ C. Since all the distances are equal, and the charges producing V3 and V4 are opposite, V3 and V4 cancel each other. We only need to compute V1 or V2, since they are equal, but they won't cancel.

\displaystyle V_1=V_2=k\frac{Q}{r}=9\times 10^9 \frac{4\times 10^{-6}}{0.707}

V_1=V_2=50912\ V

The total potential is

V_t=50912\ V+50912\ V=1\times 10^5\ V

\boxed{V_t=1\times 10^5\ V}

Determine the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor that is charged to a potential difference of 150 V. The plates are 4.5
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: E = 1.93×10^-7 J

Explanation: The formulae for getting the energy stored in a capacitor is given as

E =Cv²/2

Where E = energy stored in capacitor (joules), C = capacitance of capacitor (farad), v = applied voltage =150v.

The formulae implies that we need to get the capacitance of the capacitor (C) first before we can get the energy.

From the parameters given to us

Area of plates =A = 87.5cm² = 87.5/10000 = 0.00875m²

Distance between plates = d = 4.50mm = 4.50/1000 = 0.0045m

C = ε0A/d

Where ε0 = permittivity of free space = 8.85×10^-12 F/m

C = 8.85×10^-12 × 0.00875/ 0.0045

C = 7.743×10^-14/0.0045

C = 1.72×10^-11 F.

Recall that E = Cv²/2

E = ( 1.72×10^-11 × 150×150) /2

E = 3.87×10^-7/2

E = 1.93×10^-7 J

List five rules of golf etiquette. Explain the correct stance, grip, orientation, and parts of a swing.
Verizon [17]
- keep you eyes on the ball, after you hit the ball you look up, you have to see the club hit the ball

- your grip it really matters on what your comfortable with but first you put your left hand on the club then put your right hand below your left hand, then put your right pinky on top of your index finger, but you can inter lock your pinky and index finger

- DON'T HIT AT THE BALL HIT THREW THE BALL

- parts of the swing, can be pretty tricky to explain, but I'll try my best to explain it, okay so a golf swing is like a pendulum, you swing right to left. Once you lift the club to the right you still look down at the ball. After swimming to the right your have to hit the ball with your right hand strength, in order the ball to fly.

- the way you do your grip defines if the ball will go straight or not. But also the way you swing towards the ball also defines how far the ball is going to go.
