A laser beam is incident on two slits with a separation of 0.195 mm, and a screen is placed 5.30 m from the slits. If the bright

Answer:

λ = 596 nm.

Explanation:

Fringe width = λ D / d

λ is wave length , D is screen distance and d is slit separation.

Putting the values

1.62 x 10⁻² =(  λ x 5.3 ) / .195 x 10⁻³

\lambda=\frac{1.62\times10^{-2}\times195\times10^{-6}}{5.3}

λ = 596 nm.

Which of the following quantities is inversely proportional to the gravitational pull between two objects?
Contact [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces

I hope this helps a little bit

a flag of mass 2.5 kg is supported by a single rope. A strong horizontal wind exerts a force of 12 N on the flag. Calculate the
tatuchka [14]
The free-body diagram of the forces acting on the flag is in the picture in attachment.

We have: the weight, downward, with magnitude
W=mg = (2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N
the force of the wind F, acting horizontally, with intensity
F=12 N
and the tension T of the rope. To write the conditions of equilibrium, we must decompose T on both x- and y-axis (x-axis is taken horizontally whil y-axis is taken vertically):
T \cos \alpha -F=0
T \sin \alpha -W=
By dividing the second equation by the first one, we get
\tan \alpha =  \frac{W}{F}= \frac{24.5 N}{12 N}=2.04
From which we find
\alpha = 63.8 ^{\circ}
which is the angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal.

By replacing this value into the first equation, we can also find the tension of the rope:
T= \frac{F}{\cos \alpha}= \frac{12 N}{\cos 63.8^{\circ}}=27.2 N

Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of a 1200 kg automobile moving at 18 m/s .
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

194,400 joules of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Remember that to calculate the Kinetic energy you need to use the next formula:

Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2

We know that Mass= 1200 kg and velocity is 18m/s, so we insert those values into the formula:

Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2\\Ke=\frac{1}{2}1200kg*(18m/s)^2\\Ke=194,400 joules

So the kinetic energy of a car moving at 18m/s with a mass of 1200 kg would be 194,400 joules.

determine the force of gravitational attraction between a 78kg boy sitting 2 meters away from a 65kg girl.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

F=8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a boy is 78 kg

Mass of a girl is 65 kg

We need to find the force of gravitational attraction between them if they are 2 m away.

The formula for the gravitational force is given by :

F=\dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 78\times 65}{(2)^2}\\\\=8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N

So, the force between them is 8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N.

What are the elements in silk?
Zanzabum

Answer:Silk emitted by the silkworm consists of two main proteins, sericin and fibroin, fibroin being the structural center of the silk, and serecin being the sticky material surrounding it. Fibroin is made up of the amino acids Gly-Ser-Gly-Ala-Gly-Ala and forms beta pleated sheets.
