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

with two tiny slits separated by 0.195 mm. An interference pattern appears on a screen that lies 5.10 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 = 610.6 nm

Explanation:

We are given;

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

Interference pattern distance; D = 4.95 m

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

Formula for the Fringe width is;

β = Dλ/d

Where;

λ is laser's wavelength

Thus;

λ = (d × β)/(D)

λ = (0.195 × 10^(-3) × 1.55 × 10^(-2))/4.95

λ = 610.6 × 10^(-9) m

λ = 610.6 nm

Suppose a plane accelerates from rest for 30 s, achieving a takeoff speed of 80 m/s after traveling a distance of 1200 m down th
Margaret [11]

Answer:

300 m

Explanation:

The train accelerate from the rest so u = 0 m/sec

Final speed that is v = 80 m/sec

Time t = 30 sec

The distance traveled by first plane = 1200 m

We know the equation of motion S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2 where s is distance a is acceleration and u is initial velocity

Using this equation for first plane 1200=0\times 30+\frac{1}{2}a30^2

a=2.67\frac{m}{sec^2}

As the acceleration is same for both the plane so a for second plane will be 2.67 \frac{m}{sec^2}

The another equation of motion is v^2=u^2+2as using this equation for second plane 40^2=0+2\times 2.67\times s

s = 300 m

NikAS [45]

Answer:

Theta1 = 12° and theta2 = 168°

The solution procedure can be found in the attachment below.

Explanation:

The Range is the horizontal distance traveled by a projectile. This diatance is given mathematically by Vo cos(theta) t. Where t is the total time of flight of the projectile in air. It is the time taken for the projectile to go from starting point to finish point. This solution assumes the projectile finishes uts motion on the same horizontal level as the starting point and as a result the vertical displacement is zero (no change in height).

In the solution as can be found below, the expression to calculate the range for any launch angle theta was first derived and then the required angles calculated from the equation by substituting the values of the the given quantities.
