Answer:

Tstring = 343.35 [N].

Explanation:

Since the block is in equilibrium, we can say that the sum of the forces on the Y-axis or vertical is equal to zero.

∑Fy = 0

$T_{string}-W=0$

where:

Tstring = tension of the string [N]

W = weight of the block [N]

And the weight can be calculated multiplying the mass of the block by the gravity acceleration.

Now replacing:

$T_{string}=m*g\\T_{string}=35*9.81\\T_{string}=343.35[N]$

bekas [8.4K]

The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value

Coherent light with wavelength 598 nm passes through two very narrow slits, and the interference pattern is observed on a screen

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

1.196 μm

Explanation:

D = Screen distance = 3 m

$\lambda$ = Wavelength = 598 m

y = Distance of first-order bright fringe from the center of the central bright fringe = 4.84 mm

d = Slit distance

$tan\theta=\frac{y}{D}\\\Rightarrow \theta=tan^{-1}{\frac{y}{D}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=tan^{-1}{\frac{4.84\times 10^{-3}}{3}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=0.09243\ ^{\circ}$

$sin\theta=\frac{\lambda}{d}\\\Rightarrow d=\frac{\lambda}{sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow d=\frac{598\times 10^{-9}}{sin0.09243}\\\Rightarrow d=0.00037066\ m$

For first dark fringe

$dsin\theta=\frac{\lambda'}{2}\\\Rightarrow \lambda'=2dsin\theta\\\Rightarrow \lambda'=2\times 0.00037066\times sin0.09243\\\Rightarrow \lambda'=1.196\times 10^{-6}\\\Rightarrow \lambda'=1.196\ \mu m$
