When laser light of wavelength 632.8 nm passes through a diffraction grating, the first bright spots occur at ± 17.8 ∘ from the
o-na [289]
The equation we use is mλ=dsinθ for intensity maximas. We are given at the first maximum (m=1), it occurs at 17.8 degrees. Thus we can solve for d by substituting known values into our equation.

(1) (632.8*10^-9m)=dsin(17.8) => d = 2.07*10^-6m

Next we want to find the angle at the second maximum (m=2) so we need to solve for θ.

(2) (632.8*10^-9m) = (2.07*10^-6m)sinθ

θ=37.69 degrees

Hopes this helps!

P.S. I hope this is right. If not sorry in advance.

if a person with a mass of 70kg is standing on scale in an elevator when the cable snaps, what will the reading on the scale be
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The reading will be the same.

Explanation:

Mass does not depend upon anything and it remains the same anywhere. What changes is the weight of the body because it depends upon gravity and is different at different places.

Giving me the brainest will be helpful.

How does solar energy produce electricity?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
By the use of "Solar cells" or "Solar panel", we can trap solar energy in silicon/germanium rods, then we can convert in into electricity too.

Hope this helps!

The number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to a continuous exponential growth model, with a growth rate
sveta [45]

Answer:

It would take approximately 289 hours for the population to double

Explanation:

Recall the expression for the continuous exponential growth of a population:

N(t)=N_0\,e^{kt}

where N(t) measures the number of individuals, No is the original population, "k" is the percent rate of growth, and "t" is the time elapsed.

In our case, we don't know No (original population, but know that we want it to double in a certain elapsed "t". We also have in mind that the percent rate "k" would be expressed in mathematical form as: 0.0024 (mathematical form of the given percent growth rate).

So we need to solve for "t" in the following equation:

2\,N_0=N_0\,e^{0.0024\,t}\\\frac{2\,N_0}{N_0} =e^{0.0024\,t}\\2=e^{0.0024\,t}\\ln(2)=0.0024\,t\\t=\frac{ln(2)}{0.0024} \\t=288.811\,\, hours

Which can be rounded to about 289 hours
