An instructor wishes to determine the wavelength of the light in a laser beam. To do so, she directs the beam toward a partition

with two tiny slits separated by 0.195 mm. An interference pattern appears on a screen that lies 4.85 m from the slit pair. The instructor's measurements show that two adjacent bright interference fringes lie 1.55 cm apart on the screen. What is the laser's wavelength (in nm)

Answer:

λ = 623.2 nm

Explanation:

We are given;

separation distance; d = 0.195 mm = 0.195 × 10^(-3) m

interference pattern distance; D = 4.85 m

Width of two adjacent bright interference; w = 1.55 cm = 1.55 × 10^(-2) m

Formula for fringe width is given as;

w = λD/d

Where λ is wavelength

Thus;

λ = dw/D

λ = (0.195 × 10^(-3) × 1.55 × 10^(-2))/4.85

λ = 0.0000006232 m

Converting to nm gives;

λ = 623.2 nm

ss7ja [257]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A corrective action is defined as the action with the help of which a person can avoid a difficulty or problem that he/she was facing earlier.

For example, when the chef checked the temperature of soup using thermometer then it was 120 but his operation's critical limit was 135.

So, to avoid this problem he heated the soup to 165 at 15 seconds following which he got the result as desired.

Therefore, reheating the soup was his corrective action.

Thus, we can conclude that reheating the soup was the corrective action.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

f_n=3.75N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frictional force F=0.150N

Coefficient of kinetic friction \mu=0.04

Generally the equation for Normal for is mathematically given by

 f_n=\frac{F}{\mu}

Therefore

 f_n=\frac{0.150}{0.04}

 f_n=3.75N

Answer:

<em>The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T</em>

Explanation:

<u>Simple Pendulum</u>

A simple pendulum is a mechanical arrangement that describes periodic motion. The simple pendulum is made of a small bob of mass 'm' suspended by a thin inextensible string.

The period of a simple pendulum is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Where L is its length and g is the local acceleration of gravity.

If the length of the pendulum was increased to 9 times (L'=9L), the new period of oscillation will be:

T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L'}{g}}

T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{9L}{g}}

Taking out the square root of 9 (3):

T'=3*2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Substituting the original T:

T'=3*T

The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T

Very briefly describe two (2) key strategies for retaining staff.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

(1) Offer the right benefits

(2) Be transparent and open

Explanation:

There are two key strategies for retaining step are discussed below:

(1) Offer the right benefits: Benefits and perks can play a very good role in keeping employees happy, healthy and engaged. But benefits can go far beyond paid sick leaves and health coverage.

The company can give some financial awards to the employees which can help in exceeding performance and by this employees will stay in the company for a long period. Nearly 9 out of 10 companies will provide incentives and bonuses to the employees in coming next five years, according to the CTA.

(2) Be transparent and open: Creating open communication between the management and employees will help in the growth of the company as well as make the office atmosphere good. By this employees can share the ideas with the management and by these meetings, the employees can share their problems with management frankly will help employees to stay in the company for a longer period.
