The second-order dark fringe in a single-slit diffraction pattern is 1.40 mm from the center of the central maximum. Assuming th

We know, for single slit :

y =\dfrac{ n\lambda L}{a}\\\\\lambda = \dfrac{ya}{nL}       ...1)

y = 1.4\ mm = 1.4 \times 10^{-3}\ m

n = 2

L = 89 cm = 0.89 m

a=7.1\times 10^{-4}\ m

Putting all these in equation 1), we get :

\lambda = \dfrac{ya}{nL}\\\\\lambda = \dfrac{1.4\times 10^{-3}\times 7.1\times 10^{-4}}{2\times 0.89 }\\\\\lambda = 5.584 \times 10^{-7}\ m

Therefore, wavelength of the incident light is 5.584 \times 10^{-7}\ m or 558.4 nm.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Two forces, one of 100 ponds and the other 150 pounds act on the same object, at angles of 20°and 60°, respectively, withthe pos

<h2>Resultant is 235.54 pounds at an angle 44.16° to X axis.</h2>

Explanation:

Forces are 100 pound and 150 pound and angles with x axis are 20°and 60°.

That is force 1 is 100 pound with x axis at 20°

           F₁ = 100 cos 20 i  +  100 sin 20 j

           F₁ = 93.97 i  +  34.20 j          

That is force 2 is 150 pound with x axis at 60°

           F₂ = 150 cos 60 i  +  150 sin 60 j

           F₂ = 75 i  +  129.90 j  

F₁ +  F₂ =  93.97 i  +  34.20 j + 75 i  +  129.90 j

F₁ +  F₂ =  168.97 i  +  164.10 j

\texttt{Magnitude = }\sqrt{168.97^2+164.10^2}\\\\\texttt{Magnitude = }235.54pounds\\\\\texttt{Angle = }tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{164.10}{168.97}\right )\\\\\texttt{Angle = }44.16^0

Resultant is 235.54 pounds at an angle 44.16° to X axis.

A tennis ball is tossed up off a building with a velocity of 22m/s. It takes 6.4s to reach the ground. How high is the building
Amanda [17]
The height of the tennis ball,relative to the ground is H=h max+h-->h max-the maximum height that the tennis ball reaches relative to the roof of the building; h-the height of the building;h max =v0^2/2g=24,2m(g=10m/s^2).H=gt^2/2=>24,2+h=gt^2/2=>h=gt^2/2-24,2=180,6m
