Physics
1 answer:
Ivan3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Pressure is the ratio of applied force to the area over which the force is applied. Atmospheric pressure, which is also referred to as barometric pressure, is the pressure due to the force of the weight of the air in the atmosphere on the surface of the earth

The unit of pressure in atmosphere, with symbol, atm, is given as follows;

1 atm = 101,325 Pa

1 atm is also equivalent to 1.01325 bar

The atmospheric pressure reduces as altitude increases such that the atmospheric pressure in Honolulu is twice the atmospheric pressure in Denali, Alaska

41. City A lies 30 km directly south of city B. A bus, beginning at city A travels 50 km at 37° north of east to reach city C. H
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

B) 40 km West

Explanation:

Let position of B is origin so with respect of City B the position of A is given as

r_A = 30 km south of city B

now Bus starts from City A and travels a distance of 50 km at 37 degree North of East to reach city C

so it is

r_{CA} = 50(cos37\hat i + sin37 \hat j)

r_{CA} = 40\hat i + 30\hat j

now the position of C is given with respect to A

in order to find the position of C with respect to B we can say

r_C = r_{CA} + r_A

r_C = 40\hat i + 30\hat j + (-30 \hat j)

r_C = 40 \hat i

so in order to reach at city B from city C bus has to travel 40 km towards West

What happens to the distance between interference fringes if the separation between two slits is increased?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

It will decrease

Explanation:

The double-slit interference equation, which gives us the position y of a maximum on the screen (measured relative to the central position), is

y=\frac{n\lambda D}{d}

where

n is the order of the maximum

D is the distance between the slits and the screen

\lambda is the wavelength of the light

d is the separation between the two slits

From the formula, we see that y is inversely proportional to d: this means that if the separation between the slits is increased, the distance of each maximum from the central position (y) decreases, therefore the distance between the interference fringes will decrease.
