Complete Question

One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a small patch of light on the far wall. Having recently studied optics in your physics class, you're not too surprised to see that the patch of light seems to be a circular diffraction pattern. It appears that the central maximum is about 2 cm across, and you estimate that the distance from the window shade to the wall is about 5 m.

Required:

Estimate the diameter of the pinhole.

Answer:

The diameter is $d =0.000336 m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The central maxima is $D= 2cm = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02m$

The distance from the window shade is $L = 5m$

The average wavelength of the sun is mathematically evaluated as

$\lambda_{ave } = \frac{\lambda_i + \lambda_f}{2}$

Generally the visible light spectrum has a wavelength range between 400 nm to 700 nm

So the initial wavelength of the sun is $\lambda _i = 400nm$

and the final wavelength is $\lambda_f = 700nm$

Substituting this into the above equation

$\lambda_{sun} = \frac{400nm +700nm}{2}$

$= 550nm$

The diameter is evaluated as

$d = \frac{2.44 \lambda_{sun} L}{D}$

substituting values

$d = \frac{2.44 * 550*10^{-9} * 5 }{0.02}$

$d =0.000336 m$

Describe what happens when your circuit is completed. Tap on one of the wires with your mouse. Describe what happens. Explain yo

klemol [59]

Answer: when a circuit is completed (it allows the flow of electrons which causes the light bulb to produce light).

Explanation:

A circuit is described as an electrical setup that is consists of a light bulb, a switch, a wire, a battery which is arranged to allow the flow of electric current. The major components of the electrical circuit includes:

--> The BATTERY which is the source of voltage to the circuit,

--> the WIRE which is the conductive path,

--> the LIGHT BULB which is the load that needs electrical power to operate and

--> the SWITCH which is the controller.

When a circuit is COMPLETED when electrons can flow from one end of a battery all the way around, through the wires, to the other end of the battery. Along its way, it will carry electrons to electrical objects that are connected to it like the light bulb and make it to produce light.

There are different types of electric circuit which are designed to create a conductive path of current or electricity. They include:

--> closed circuit

--> open circuit

--> short circuit

--> parallel circuit

--> series circuit.

During a testing process, a worker in a factory mounts a bicycle wheel on a stationary stand and applies a tangential resistive

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The force is $F = 1041.7N$

Explanation:

The moment of Inertia I is mathematically evaluated as

$I = MR_A^2$

Substituting $1.9kg$ for M(Mass of the wheel) and $\frac{66cm}{2} * \frac{1m}{100cm} = 0.33m$ for $R_A$ (Radius of wheel)

$I = 1.9 * 0.33^2$

$= 0.207kgm^2$

The torque on the wheel due to net force is mathematically represented as

$\tau = FR_B - F_rR_A$

Substituting 135 N for $F_r$ (Force acting on sprocket), $\frac{8.7cm}{2} * \frac{1m}{100cm} = 0.0435m$ for $R_B$ (radius of the chain) and F is the force acting on the sprocket due to the chain which is unknown for now

$\tau = F (0.0435) - 135 (0.33)$

This same torque due to the net force is the also the torque that is required to rotate the wheel to have an angular acceleration of $\alpha = 3.70 rad/s^2$ and this torque can also be represented mathematically as
