Answer:

θ = 34.77°

Explanation:

From diffraction equation:

m\lambda = dSin\theta

where,

m = order of diffraction

λ = wavelength of light used

d = slit separation

θ = angle

Therefore, for initial case:

m = 2

λ = 600 nm = 6 x 10⁻⁷ m

d = slit seperation = ?

θ = angle 20°

Therefore,

(2)(6\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)=d(Sin\ 20^o)\\\\d = \frac{12\ x 10^{-7}\ m}{0.342}\\\\d = 3.5\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m

Now, for the second case:

m = 5

λ = 600 nm = 6 x 10⁻⁷ m

d = slit seperation = (1.5)(3.5 x 10⁻⁶ m) = 5.26 x 10⁻⁶ m

θ = angle = ?

Therefore,

(5)(6\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m) = (5.26\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m)Sin\theta\\\\Sin\theta = \frac{(5)(6\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)}{(5.26\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m)}\\\\\theta = Sin^{-1}(0.5703)

<u>θ = 34.77°</u>

An 8.0 cm object is 40.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Its image is 16.0 cm in front of the mirro
svet-max [94.6K]
 We can rearrange the mirror equation before plugging our values in. 
1/p = 1/f - 1/q. 
1/p = 1/10cm - 1/40cm
1/p = 4/40cm - 1/40cm = 3/40cm
40cm=3p  <-- cross multiplication
13.33cm = p

Now that we have the value of p, we can plug it into the magnification equation.

M=-16/13.33=1.2
1.2=h'/8cm
9.6=h'

So the height of the image produced by the mirror is 9.6cm.

At a particular instant, a proton at the origin has velocity &lt; 5e4, -2e4, 0&gt; m/s. You need to calculate the magnetic field
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

9.7\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

Velocity =5\times 10^4i-2\times 10^4j

r=0.03i+0.05j

r=\mid r\mid=\sqrt{(0.03)^2+(0.05)^2}=0.058

v=\mid V\mid=\sqrt{(5\times 10^4)^2+(-2\times 10^{4})^2}=5.39\times 10^{2}

We know that

B=\frac{mv}{qr}

Where q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Mass of proton=1.67\times 10^{-27} kg

Using the formula

B=\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 5.39\times 10^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.058}

B=9.7\times 10^{-5} T
