A diffraction grating is to be used to find the wavelength of the emission spectrum of a gas. The grating spacing is not known,

Bumek [7]

Answer:

528.9 nm

Explanation:

For a grating dsinθ = mλ where m = order of grating, d = grating space, λ = wavelength of light and θ = angle of deflection of light

First, we find the grating space d = mλ/sinθ where m = 2 for second order, λ = 632.8 nm = 632.8 × 10⁻⁹ m, θ = 43.2°

d = mλ/sinθ = 2 × 632.8 × 10⁻⁹ m ÷ sin43.2° = 1.849 × 10⁻⁶ m = 1.849 μm

We now find the wavelength of the light to be measured from λ = dsinθ/m

Here, θ = 34.9° and m = 2 for second order. So, we have

λ = dsinθ/m = 1.849 × 10⁻⁶ m × sin34.9° ÷ 2 = 0.5289 × 10⁻⁶ m = 528.9 nm

How much energy is needed to heat and melt 3.0 kg of copper initially at 83°C?

Ne4ueva [31]

As we know that in order to melt the copper we need to take the temperature of copper to its melting point

So here heat required to raise the temperature of copper is given as

$Q = ms\Delta T$

We know that

melting temperature of copper = 1085 degree C

Specific heat capacity of copper = 385 J/kg C

now we have

$Q = 3(385)(1085 - 83)$

$Q = 1157310 J$

$Q = 1157.3 kJ$

now in order to melt the copper we know the heat required is

$Q = mL$

here we know that

L = 205 kJ/kg

now from above formula

$Q = 3(205) kJ$

$Q = 615 kJ$

now total heat required will be

$Q = 1157.3 kJ + 615 kJ$

$Q = 1772.3 kJ$

As we know that

$1 Cal = 4.18 kJ$

now we have

$Q = \frac{1772.3}{4.18} = 430 KCal$

Two resistors, A and B, are connected in a series circuit with a battery. The resistance of A is twice that of B. Which resistor

IgorC [24]

Answer:

A dissipates more power.

Explanation:

In a series circuit, the current is the same at any point in it.
The power dissipated in any resistor follows Joule's law, as follows:

$P = I^{2} * R$

So, for a given current, the power is directly proportional to the resistance of the resistor.
In this case, as resistor A has twice the resistance of resistor B, A dissipates twice more power than B.

The power of motor is 50 w the motor drags a 2 object horizontally at a constant speed of 10m/s along a rough floor . What is th

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Frictional force between the object and the floor=5 N

Explanation:

power= 50 W

velocity= 10 m/s

power= force * velocity

50=F * 10

F=50/10

F=5 N

Thus the force of friction= 5 N

Calculate the potential energy of a body of a mass 2kg held 4 meters above the ground if g=10m/s?

Drupady [299]

Answer:

16000

Explanation:

Mass(m)=2Kg (1kg= 1ooo g then 2 kg=2000 g)

Velocity(v)= 4 meter

Acceleration due to gravity (g)=10m/s

We know that,

P.E= 1/2 mv^2

or, 1/2 × 2ooo × 4^2

or, 1/2×2000 ×16

or, 2000×8

Therefore= 16000
