Answer:

1) θ = 45.91°

2) θ = 21.04°

Explanation:

We are given;

Wavelength; λ = 665 nm = 6.65 × 10^(-7) m.

Distance between slits; d = 1mm/270 = 1/270 mm = (1/270) × 10^(-3) m

1) To find the angle, we will use the formula;

d sin θ = mλ

Where m is the order of peak which in this question is 4.

Thus, we have;

sin θ = mλ/d

sin θ = (4 × 6.65 × 10^(-7))/((1/270) × 10^(-3))

sin θ = 0.7183

θ = sin^(-1) 0.7183

θ = 45.91°

2) Similarly, d sin θ = mλ

Where m is the order of peak which in this question is 2. Thus;

sin θ = (2 × 6.65 × 10^(-7))/((1/270) × 10^(-3))

sin θ = 0.3591

θ = sin^(-1) 0.3591

θ = 21.04°

aalyn [17]

Explanation:

the weight of an object is its force exerted by gravity.

on earth we take gravitational acceleration to be 9.8 m/s^2

so the weight of an object on earth is given by F = mg

hence,

F = 90 × 9.8

F = 882 Newtons (weight on earth)

gravitational acceleration on the moon is equal to 9.8/6. so, we can just use the same formula to find the weight on the moon.

F = 90 × 9.8/6

F = 147 Newtons (weight on the moon)

make sure to ask if you need any further guidance.

What is the force of a 24.52 kg Television dropped on Pluto (acceleration of 0.59 m/s2)
inna [77]

The force of gravity on the object is 14.47 N

Explanation:

The weight of an object (which is the force of gravity experienced by an object) at a certain location is given by

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity at the location of the object

IN this problem, we have:

m = 24.52 kg (mass of the object)

g=0.59 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity on Pluto)

Substituting, we find the force of gravity on the object:

F=(24.52)(0.59)=14.47 N
