Consider a beam of electrons in a vacuum, passing through a very narrow slit of width 2.00μm. The electrons then head toward an

array of detectors a distance 1.068 m away. These detectors indicate a diffraction pattern, with a broad maximum of electron intensity (i.e., the number of electrons received in a certain area over a certain period of time) with minima of electron intensity on either side, spaced 0.527 cm from the center of the pattern. What is the wavelength λ of one of the electrons in this beam? Recall that the location of the first intensity minima in a single slit diffraction pattern for light is y=Lλ/a, where L is the distance to the screen (detector) and a is the width of the slit. The derivation of this formula was based entirely upon the wave nature of light, so by de Broglie's hypothesis it will also apply to the case of electron waves.

Answer:

9.9\cdot 10^{-9}m

Explanation:

In a single-slit diffraction pattern, the location of the first minimum is given by

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

where

L is the distance between the slit and the screen

\lambda is the wavelength

a is the width of the slit

In this problem, we have

y=0.527 cm = 5.27\cdot 10^{-3} m (location of first minimum)

L = 1.068 m (distance of the screen)

a=2.00\mu m=2.00\cdot 10^{-6}m (width of the slit)

Solving the equation for \lambda, we find the De Broglie wavelength of the electron:

\lambda = \frac{ya}{L}=\frac{(5.27\cdot 10^{-3} m)(2.00\cdot 10^{-6} m)}{1.068 m}=9.9\cdot 10^{-9}m

Why is air considered a fluid

Answer:

A fluids is any substance that flows. Air is made of stuff, air particles, that are loosely held together in a gas form. Although liquids are the most commonly recognized fluids, gasses are also fluids. Since air is a gas, it flows and takes the form of its container.

an object is acted on by a drag force with a magnitude that is proportional to the speed. the object accelerates downward at 3.0
Nutka1998 [239]

The terminal speed of the object falling down is 66.67 m/s.

The terminal speed acquired by the body when,

Weight of the body = Drag force of the body

It is given,

Drag force is directly proportional to the speed,

So,

F = CV

Where F is drag force,

V is the speed,

C is the constant,

So, it can be written as C = F/V.

The weight of the body = mg

The weight of the body = 10m

M is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity,

The drag force when the speed is 20m/s.

Drag force = ma

a is the acceleration during the drag force which is given to be 3m/s²,

Drag force = 3m

Now we can write,

F₁/V₁ = F₂/V₂

F₁ is the drag force at 20m/s speed.

F₂ is the weight of the body and V₂ is the terminal speed,

Now, it can be written,

3m/20 = 10m/V₂

V₂ = 66.67 m/s.

So, the terminal speed is 66.67m/s.

What molecular geometry would be expected for f2 and hf?
Kaylis [27]
The molecular geometry of both F2 and HF is linear.

There are only two atoms which are covalently bonded and thus, the bonding scheme with the atoms looks like this;

F --- F

H---F

So, both are linear.
