Answer:

λ = 864 nm

Explanation:

To find the wavelength of the light you use the following formula, which determines the position of the m-th fringe in an interference pattern:

y_m=\frac{m\lambda D}{d}   (1)

ym: position of a bright fringe

D: distance from the slits to the screen = 3,7 m

d: distance between slits = 0,2mm = 0,2 *10^-3 m

m: order of the fringe

λ: wavelength of the light

You have the distance from the central peak to the third fringe (0,048m). Then, you can use the equation (1) with m=3 and solve for the wavelength:

y_3=\frac{3\lambda D}{d}\\\\\lambda=\frac{dy_3}{3D}=\frac{(0,2*10^{-3}m)(0,048m)}{3(3,7m)}=8,64*10^{-7}m\\\\\lambda=864*10^{-9}m=864nm

henc, the wavelength of the light is 864nm

A convex spherical mirror having a radius of curvature 18 cm (focal length = 1/2 radius of curvature for a spherical mirror) pro
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

distance between object and image =  18.9 cm

Explanation:

given data

radius of curvature = 18 cm

focal length = 1/2 radius of curvature

magnification = 40%

to find out

distance between object and image

solution

we know lens formula that is

1/f = 1/v + 1/u     ....................1

here f = 18 /2 and v and u is object and image distance

and we know m = 40% = 0.40

so 0.40 = -v / u

so here v = - 0.40 u

so from equation 1

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

2/18 = - 1/0.40u + 1/u

u = -13.5 cm   ..................2

and

v = -0.40 (- 13.5)

v = 5.4 cm     ......................3

so from equation 2 and 3

distance between object and image =  5.4 + 13.5

distance between object and image =  18.9 cm

You are driving at the speed of 27.7 m/s (61.9764 mph) when suddenly the car in front of you (previously traveling at the same s
densk [106]

Here when car in front of us applied brakes then it is slowing down due to frictional force on it

So here we can say that friction force on the car front of our car is given as

F_f = \mu m g

So the acceleration of car due to friction is given as

F_{net} = - \mu mg

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = -\mu g

now it is given that

\mu = 0.868

g = 9.81 m/s^2

so here we have

a = -0.868 * 9.81

a = -8.52 m/s^2

so the car will accelerate due to brakes by a = - 8.52 m/s^2

(1) A positive charge +3 C is separated from another positive charge of +5 C by a distance of 7m. What is the magnitude of the e
Aneli [31]

1. The magnitude of the electric force between the two charges is 2.8×10⁹ N (Option B)

2. The net charge on the molecule is -8×10⁻¹⁹ C (Option D)

3. The magnitude of the force between the charges is 16000 N (Option C)

4. The correct statement is: A neutral object has equal numbers of protons and electrons. (Option C)

<h3>1. How to determine the force</h3>
  • Charge 1 (q₁) = +3 C
  • Charge 2 (q₂) = +5 C
  • Electric constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²
  • Distance apart (r) = 7 m
  • Force (F) =?

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = (9×10⁹ × 3 × 5) / (7)²

F = 2.8×10⁹ N

<h3>2. How to determine the net charge on the molecule</h3>
  • Electron = 223 electrons
  • Proton = 218 protons
  • Net Charge =?

Charge = Proton - Electron

Charge = 218 - 223

Charge = -5 electrons

But

1 electron = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C

Thus,

Net Charge = -5 × 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C

Net Charge = -8×10⁻¹⁹ C

<h3>3. How to determine the force</h3>
  • Charge 1 (q₁) = 2×10⁻⁴ C
  • Charge 2 (q₂) = 8×10⁻⁴ C
  • Electric constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²
  • Distance apart (r) = 0.3 m
  • Force (F) =?

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = (9×10⁹ × 2×10⁻⁴ × 8×10⁻⁴) / (0.3)²

F = 16000 N

<h3>4. What is a neutral object?</h3>

A neutral object is an object having equal numbers of protons and electrons. For example, an object with 4 protons and 4 electrons is said to be neutral as illustrated below

  • Electron = 4 electrons
  • Proton = 4 protons
  • Net Charge =?

Charge = Proton - Electron

Charge = 4 - 4

Charge = 0 (neutral)

Thus, the correct statement about neutral object, given in the question is: A neutral object has equal numbers of protons and electrons (Option C)
