Answer:

101 meters

Explanation:

Distance traveled by the tourist:

d = 3.60 m/s × t

Distance traveled by the bear:

d + 39.3 m = 5.00 m/s × t

Substitute:

3.6 t + 39.3 = 5 t

39.3 = 1.4 t

t = 28.1

d = 101

Using monochromatic light of 410 nm wavelength, a single thin slit forms a diffraction pattern, with the first minimum at an ang
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

c. 307 nm

Explanation:

angular position of first dark fringe =  λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(40 x π ) / 180 = 410 / d

angular position of second  dark fringe =  2 x λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(60 x π ) / 180 = 2 x λ / d

Dividing these equations

60 / 40 =  2 x λ / 410

λ = 307.5 nm.

Lukalu is rappelling off a cliff. The parametric equations that describe her horizontal and vertical position as a function of t
andre [41]

Answer:

2.5 s, 5 m

Explanation:

The equations for the horizontal and vertical position of Lukalu are:

x(t) = 8t\\y(t) = -16t^2 + 100

we can find the time it takes her to reach the ground by requiring that the vertical position becomes zero:

y(t) = 0

So we find:

0=-16t^2 +100\\16t^2 = 100\\t=\sqrt{\frac{100}{16}}=2.5 s

The horizontal distance of Lukalu instead will be given by the equation for the horizontal position, substituting t = 2.5 s:

x=8t = 8 \cdot 2.5 s =5 m
