A laser emits two wavelengths (λ1 = 420 nm; λ2 = 630 nm). When these two wavelengths strike a grating with 450 lines/mm, they pr

Westkost [7]

A) Order of the first laser: 3, order of the second laser: 2

B) The overlap occurs at an angle of $34.9^{\circ}$

Explanation:

The formula that gives the position of the maxima (bright fringes) for a diffraction grating is

$d sin \theta = m \lambda$

where

d is spacing between the lines in the grating

$\theta$ is the angle of the maximum

m is the order of diffraction

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light

For laser 1,

$d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1$

For laser 2,

$d sin \theta = m_2 \lambda_2$

where

$\lambda_1 = 420 nm\\\lambda_2 = 630 nm$

Since the position of the maxima in the two cases overlaps, then the term $d sin \theta$ on the left is the same for the two cases, therefore we can write:

$m_1 \lambda_1 = m_2 \lambda_2\\\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}=\frac{630}{420}=\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore:

$m_1 = 3$

$m_2 = 2$

In order to find the angle at which the overlap occurs, we use the 1st laser situation:

$d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1$

where:

N = 450 lines/mm = 450,000 lines/m is the number of lines per unit length, so the spacing between the lines is

$d=\frac{1}{N}=\frac{1}{450,000}=2.2\cdot 10^{-6} m$

$m_1 = 3$ is the order of the maximum

$\lambda_1 = 420 nm = 420\cdot 10^{-9} m$ is the wavelength of the laser light

Solving for $\theta$ , we find the angle of the maximum:

$sin \theta = \frac{m_1 \lambda_1}{d}=\frac{(3)(420\cdot 10^{-9})}{2.2\cdot 10^{-6}}=0.572$

So the angle is

$\theta=sin^{-1}(0.572)=34.9^{\circ}$

Explain the role of energy in changes <br> of state.

slava [35]

A liquid requires enthalpy of vaporization to transform into vapor or gas at its boiling point. Here the element absorbs heat from surroundings or heat source.

This energy is used in breaking the forces of attraction among the atoms and molecules of the element. The molecules get separated to higher distances. The energy is converted in to the kinetic energy of the molecules in gaseous form and into the internal energy in terms of the temperature of the gas.

A bird flew 16 km west in 5 hours , then flew 20 km east in 6 hours . What was the birds velocity?

LenaWriter [7]

During that period of time, the bird's displacement was 4 km east. So its velocity was (4km east)/(11hrs). That's 0.36 km/hour east. (rounded)
