Light containing two different wavelengths passes through a diffraction grating with 1,250 slits/cm. On a screen 17.5 cm from th

e grating, the third-order maximum of the shorter wavelength falls midway between the central maximum and the first side maximum for the longer wavelength. If the neighboring maxima of the longer wavelength are 8.44 mm apart on the screen, what are the wavelengths in the light

Answer:

\lambda_s =6.43*10^-4m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Diffraction grating N=1250slits/cm

Distance b/w Screen and grating length d_{sg}=17.5 cm

Distance b/w neighboring maxima and Screen d_{ms}=8.44

 

Generally the equation for grating space is mathematically given by

d(g)=\frac{1}{N}

d(g)=\frac{100}{1250}

d(g)=0.08

Generally the equation for small angle approximation is mathematically given by

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

Therefore for longest wavelength

\lambda _l=\frac{8.44*10^{-3}*(0.08)}{0.175m}

\lambda _l=3.858*10^{-3}

Therefore the third order maximum equation for the shorter wavelength as

\lambda_s =\frac{1}{6} \lambda_l

\lambda_s =\frac{1}{6} (3.858*10^-^3)

\lambda_s =6.43*10^-4m

The wavelengths in the light is given as

\lambda_s =6.43*10^-4m

A cube of plastic 1.2x10^-5 km on a side has a mas of 1.1 g. what is its density in g/cm^3?
Mamont248 [21]
Density = mass / volume

mass = 1.1 g

volume = length of side ^ 3 = [1.2 * 10^-5 km * 100000 cm/km]^3 = [1.2 cm]^3 = 1.728 cm^3

density = 1.1 g / 1.728 cm^3 = 0.64 g / cm^3

A well-insulated bucket of negligible heat capacity contains 129 g of ice at 0°C.
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The final equilibrium temperature of the system is T = 12.48^oC

For the ice it would melt completely the mass that would remain is Zero

Explanation:

In the following question we are provided with

Mass of the ice M_{i} = 129 g = 0.129 kg

Mass of the steam M_s = 19 g = 0.019 kg

Initial temperature is  T_i = 0°C

Temperature of  steam  T_s = 100°C

Following the change of state of water in the question

 The energy required by ice to change to water is mathematically given as

          Q_A = M_iL_f

Where L_f is a constant known as heat of fusion  and the value is 334*10^3 J/kg

           Q_A = 0.129 *334 *10^3  = 43086 J

The energy been released when the steam changes to water is mathematically given as

            Q_B = M_s * L_v

           Where L_v is a constant known as heat of vaporization and the value is 2256*10^3J/kg

           Q_B = 0.019 * 2256*10^3 = 42864J

         The energy released when the temperature of water decrease from 100°C to 0°C is

                 Q_C = M_s *C_water (100°C)

Where C_{water} is the specific heat of water which has a value 4186J/kg \cdot K

                  Q_C = 0.019 *4186*100 = 7953.4

Looking at the values we obtained we noticed that ]

             Q_B + Q_C > Q_A

What this means is that the ice will melt

bearing in mind the conservation of energy

     looking the way at which water at different temperature were mixed according to the question

     Heat lossed by the vapor   = heat gained by ice

        Q_B + M_s *C_{water}(100-T) = Q_A + M_i C_{water} T

                                               T = \frac{Q_B+M_s *C_{water}(100^oC)-Q_A}{(M_s *C_{water})+(M_i*C_{water})}

                                               T = \frac{42864+7953.4-43086}{(0.019+0.129)(4186)}

                                              T = 12.48^oC
