Answer: i) 2.356 × 10^-3 m = 2.356mm, ii) 4.712 × 10^-3 m = 4.712mm

Explanation: The formulae that relates the position of a fringe from the center to the wavelength, distance between slits and distance between slits and screen is given below as

y = R×(mλ/d)

Where y = distance between nth fringes and the center fringe.

m = order of fringe

λ = wavelength of light = 589nm = 589×10^-9m

R = distance between slits and screen = 1.0m

d = distance between slits = 0.25mm = 0.00025m

For distance between the first dark fringe and the center fringe.

This implies that m = 1

y = 1 × 589×10^-9 × 1/0.00025

y = 589×10^-9/0.00025

y = 2,356,000 × 10^-9

y = 2.356 × 10^-3 m = 2.356mm

For the second dark fringe, this implies that m = 2

y = 1 × 2 × 589×10^-9/0.00025

y = 1178 × 10^-9 /0.00025

y = 4,712,000 × 10^-9

y = 4.712 × 10^-3 m = 4.712mm

Motion with Constant Acceleration

Constant acceleration occurs when an object's velocity changes by an equal amount in every equal time period.

There are five frequently used formulas for motion in a straight line with constant acceleration. The formulas are given in terms of the initial velocity u, the final velocity v, the displacement (position) x, the acceleration a and the time elapsed t.

A pulley system with a mechanical advantage of 15 is used to lift a 1750 N piano to a third floor balcony that is 7 m above the
devlian [24]

Answer:

The  force is E = 117 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  mechanical advantage is  ME =  15

     The load is L  =  1750 \  N

      The  height is  h  =  7  \  m

Generally mechanical advantage is mathematically represented as

       ME =  \frac{L }{E }

Here E is the force that must be applied to move the piano

=>     E =  \frac{L}{ ME }

=>     E =  \frac{1750 }{15  }

=>     E = 117 \  N
