Physics
1 answer:
aleksandr82 [10.1K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a.) The main scale reading is 10.2cm

b.) Division 7 = 0.07

c.) 10.27 cm

d.)  10.31 cm

e.)  10.24 cm  

Explanation:

The figure depicts a vernier caliper readings

a.) The main scale reading is 10.2 cm

The reading before the vernier scale

b.) Division 7 = 0.07

the point where the main scale and vernier scale meet

c.) The observed readings is

10.2 + 0.07 = 10.27 cm

d.) If the instrument has a positive zero error of 4 division

correct reading = 10.27 + 0.04 = 10.31cm

e.)  If the instrument has a negative zero error of 3 division

correct reading = 10.27 - 0.03 = 10.24cm

The width of the central maxima, formed from light of wavelength 575 nm behind a single slit that has a width of 115 μm, is 1.15
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

 L  = 1.15 m

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the equation

        a sin θ = m λ

Where a is the width of the slit, λ  the wavelength and m is an integer, the order of diffraction is left.

The diffraction measurements are made on a screen that is far from the slit, and the angles in the experiment are very small, let's use trigonometry

          tan θ = y / L

          tan θ = sint θ / cos θ≈ sin θ

We substitute in the first equation

           a (y / L) = m λ

The first maximum occurs for m = 1

The distance is measured from the center point of maximum, which coincides with the center of the slit, in this case the distance is the total width of the central maximum, so the distance (y) measured from the center is

         y = 1.15 / 2 = 0.575 cm

         y = 0.575 10⁻² m

Let's clear the distance to the screen (L)

       L = a y / λ  

Let's calculate

     L = 115 10⁻⁶  0.575 10⁻² / 575 10⁻⁹

     L  = 1.15 m

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

A 62.0-kg athlete leaps straight up into the air from a trampoline with an initial speed of 9.6 m/s. The goal of this problem is
pochemuha

Answer:

2856.96 J

0

0

\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2+mgh_i=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2+mgh_f

6.78822 m/s

Explanation:

v_i = Initial velocity = 9.6 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height

The athlete only interacts with the gravitational potential energy. Air resistance is neglected.

At height y = 0

Kinetic energy

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 62\times 9.6^2\\\Rightarrow K=2856.96\ J

At height y = 0 the potential energy is 0 as

P=mgy\\\Rightarrow P=mg0=0

At maximum height her velocity becomes 0 so the kinetic energy becomes zero.

As the the potential and kinetic energy are conserved

The general equation

K_i+P_i=K_f+P_f\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2+mgh_i=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2+mgh_f

Half of maximum height

\\\Rightarrow mgh_i+\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2=mg\frac{h_i}{2}+\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow gh_i=g\frac{h_i}{2}+\frac{1}{2}v^2\\\Rightarrow g\frac{h_i}{2}=\frac{1}{2}v^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{gh}

h_i=\frac{v_i^2}{2g}

v=\sqrt{gh}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{g\times \frac{v_i^2}{2g}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{v_i^2}{2}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{9.6^2}{2}}\\\Rightarrow v=6.78822\ m/s

The velocity of the athlete at half the maximum height is 6.78822 m/s

Explain what happens to a light wave that hits the surface of a pool.
brilliants [131]

A light wave that hits the surface of a pool gets refracted and gives us an apparent image of the surface of the pool, following the concepts of refraction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let’s recall the concept of refraction when a light wave passes from medium of rarer to denser. There is a change in the speed of light while travelling from medium of rarer to denser.

There can be a change in the direction as well. This property is known as “Refraction” and the best example to see refraction is watching the surface of a clean pond, lake or pool.

When the light travels from a rarer medium (air) to a denser medium (water), it changes its angle of direction and gets refracted and hit to our eye lenses. With this, we see the surface of the pool at a changed angle and it seems to be a bit shallow than its original depth.
