Ek = 1/2 x m x v ²

1/2 x 620.0 x 9.00 ² = 25,100

34.6 cL= (blank) hL convert

shepuryov [24]

Answer

0.00346 hL

Explanation

cL means Centilitre while hL means Hectolitre.

10,000 cL = 1 hL

∴ 34.6 cL = 34.6/10,000 hL

= 0.00346 hL

A technician wishes to determine the wavelength of the light in a laser beam. To do so, she directs the beam toward a partition

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

λ = 5.656 x 10⁻⁷ m = 565.6 nm

Explanation:

Using the formula of fringe spacing from the Young's Double Slit experiment, which is given as follows:

$\Delta x = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\\lambda = \frac{\Delta x\ d}{L}$

where,

λ = wavelength = ?

Δx = fringe spacing = 1.6 cm = 0.016 m

L = Distance between slits and screen = 4.95 m

d = slit separation = 0.175 mm = 0.000175 m

Therefore,

$\lambda = \frac{(0.016\ m)(0.000175\ m)}{4.95\ m}\\\\$

λ = 5.656 x 10⁻⁷ m = 565.6 nm

The reflective surface of a CD consists of spirals of equally spaced grooves. If you shine a laser pointer on a CD, each groove

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

d = 1.55 * 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

To calculate the distance between the adjacent grooves of the CD, use the formula, $d = \frac{m \lambda}{sin(A_{m}) }$ ..........(1)

The fringe number, m = 1 since it is a first order maximum

The wavelength of the green laser pointer, $\lambda$ = 532 nm = 532 * 10⁻⁹ m

Distance between the central maximum and the first order maximum = 1.1 m

Distance between the screen and the CD = 3 m

$A_{m}$ = Angle between the incident light and the diffracted light

From the setup shown in the attachment, it is a right angled triangle in which

$sin(A_{m}) = \frac{opposite}{Hypotenuse} \\sin(A_{m}) =\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1.1^{2}+3^{2}}}$

$sin(A_{m} ) = 0.344\\A_{m} = sin^{-1} 0.344\\A_{m} = 20.14^{0}$

Putting all appropriate values into equation (1)

$d = \frac{1* 532*10^{-9} }{0.344 }\\d = 0.00000155 m\\d = 1.55 * 10^{-6} m$

PLEASE HELP!!!!!

never [62]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

When a rockets thrusters push on the ground the ground pushes back on the rocket with equal force in the opposite direction. Hence the rocket takes off.

Newtons third law of motion states, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

A 1-kg rock is suspended by a massless string from one end of a

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The weight of measuring stick is 9.8 N

Explanation:

given information:

the mass of the rock, $m_{r}$ = 1 kg

measuring stick, x =1 m

d = 0.25 m

to find the weight of measuring stick, we can use the following equation:

τ = Fd

τ = 0

$F_{r} d$ - $F_{s}d$ = 0

F_{r} = the force of the rock

F_{s} = the force of measuring stick

$F_{s} =F_{r}$

= m g

= 1 kg x 9.8 m/s

= 9.8 N

thus, the weight of measuring stick is 9.8 N
