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 particle starts from rest and has an acceleration function 5 − 10t m/s2 . (a) What is the velocity function? (b) What is the p
frez [133]

Explanation:

It is given that,

A particle starts from rest and has an acceleration function as :

a(t)=(5-10t)\ m/s^2

(a) Since, a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

v = velocity

dv=a.dt

v=\int(a.dt)

v=\int(5-10t)(dt)

v=5t-\dfrac{10t^2}{2}=5t-5t^2

(b) v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}

x = position

x=\int v.dt

x=\int (5t-5t^2)dt

x=\dfrac{5}{2}t^2-\dfrac{5}{3}t^3

(c) Velocity function is given by :

v=5t-5t^2

5t-5t^2=0

t = 1 seconds

So, at t = 1 second the velocity of the particle is zero.

Do any individual air molecules travel the length of the tube? how do you know?
Ivanshal [37]

When a gas is inside the tube, the individual air molecules travel the length of the tube.

<h3>What is molecules?</h3>

The individual particle of a gas element moving randomly inside the element structure.

When the gas contained in a container, the molecules move randomly inside it. According to the kinetic theory of gases, molecules travel the mean distance. The air molecules vibrates horizontally parallel to the length of the tube.

In an open tube, air molecules are distant from each other. So, they can travel the length of the tube.

Thus, individual air molecules travel the length of the tube.
