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>

Which object would have the most momentum?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Momentum is the product or multiplication of a body's mass and its speed.

Since all options have the mass and speed in the same units, there is no need for conversion.

A. 20 x 500 = 10000,  B. 200 x 60 = 12000

The same goes for the rest!

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

A car speed off around a bend at a constant 10m/s explain why it's velocity is not constant
VARVARA [1.3K]
It's velocity is not constant as direction is changing.
 
We know, velocity is speed with direction, so if direction is changing, velocity can't be constant, doesn't matter that speed is constant.

Hope this helps!

Technician A says that a power-assisted brake system reduces stopping distances compared to a nonpower-assisted brake system. Te
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Technician B

Explanation:

here on analyzing both the statements from technician A and technician B. The Statement from Technician B is more logical and correct. That the power-assisted brake system reduces the force that the driver must exert on the brake pedal.

The power-assisted brake system does not reduce the distance of stopping. What it does is it reduces the force to be applied by the driver. Thus, making the drive more comfortable.
