Light from two lasers is incident on an opaque barrier with a single slit of width 4.0 x 10^-4 m. One laser emits light of wavel

ength 480 nm and the other is 640 nm. A screen to view the light intensity pattern is 2.0 m behind the barrier. The distance from the center of the pattern to the nearest completely dark spot (dark for both colors) is ____ cm. (include 2 digits after the decimal point)

Answer:

a) y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm

b) y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm

Explanation:

The formula of Young's Double Slit experiment will be used here:

y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\

where,

y = distance between dark spots = ?

λ = wavelength

L = distance of screen = 2 m

d = slit width = 4 x 10⁻⁴ m

a) FOR λ = 480 nm = 4.8 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(4.8\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm</u>

<u></u>

a) FOR λ = 640 nm = 6.4 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(6.4\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm</u>

In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the expression x= 5.0 cos
lakkis [162]

Answer:

a)   x = 4.33 m ,   b)  w = 2 rad / s ,  f = 0.318 Hz ,  c) a = - 17.31 cm / s²,  

d) T =  3.15 s,  e)  A = 5.0 cm

Explanation:

In this exercise on simple harmonic motion we are given the expression for motion

          x = 5 cos (2t + π / 6)

they ask us for t = 0

a) the position of the particle

      x = 5 cos (π / 6)

      x = 4.33 m

remember angles are in radians

 

b) The general form of the equation is

          x = A cos (w t + Ф)

when comparing the two equations

         w = 2 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 2 / 2pi

           f = 0.318 Hz

c) the acceleration is defined by

      a == d²x / dt²

      a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)

for t = 0 ,  we substitute

      a = - 5,0 2² cos (π / 6)

      a = - 17.31 cm / s²

d) El period is

          T = 1/f

         T= 1/0.318

         T =  3.15 s

e) the amplitude

        A = 5.0 cm

First, you will investigate purely vertical motion. The kinematics equation for vertical motion (ignoring air resistance) is giv
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

2.85 s .

Explanation:

y(t) = y(0) + v₀t + 1/2 gt²

y(t) is vertical displacement , y(0) is initial position , v₀ is initial velocity and t is time required to make vertical displacement and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Here  y(0) is zero , v₀ = 14 m/s , g = 9.8 m s⁻² , y(t ) = 0 , as the pumpkin after time t comes back to its initial position, that is ground .

We shall take v₀ as negative as it is in upward direction and g as positive as it acts in downward direction

Put the values in the equation above,

0 = 0 - 14t + 1/2 x 9.8 t²

14 t = 1/2 x 9.8 t²

t = 28 / 9.8

t = 2.85 s .
