You have a double slit experiment, with the distance between the two slits to be 0.025 cm. A screern is 120 cm behind the double

slits. The distance between the central maximum and the Sh maximum is 1.52 cm. Please calculate the wavelength of the light used in the experiment

Answer:

The wavelength of the light is 633 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the two slits d= 0.025 cm

Distance between the screen and slits D = 120 cm

Distance between the slits y= 1.52 cm

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of double slit

\tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{D}

Where, y = Distance between the slits

D = Distance between the screen and slits

Put the value into the formula

\tan\theta=\dfrac{1.52}{120}

\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{1.52}{120}

\theta=0.725

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

d\sin\theta=n\lambda

Put the value into the formula

0.025\times\sin0.725=5\times\lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{0.025\times10^{-2}\times\sin0.725}{5}

\lambda=6.326\times10^{-7}\ m

\lambda=633\ nm

Hence, The wavelength of the light is 633 nm.

A truck on a straight road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00m/s^2 until it reaches a speed of 20.0m/s. Then the truck trave
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Time to reach the speed of 20 m/s with an acceleration of 2 m/s² can be calculated as follows .

v = u + a t

20 = 0 + 2 t

t = 20 /2 = 10 s .

Total time = 10 s + 20 s + 5 s = 35 s .

b) Average velocity = Total distance travelled / total time

Distance travelled in first 10 s

S₁ = ut + 1/2 a t²

= 0 + .5 x 2 x 10²

= 100 m

Distance travelled in next 20 s

S₂= 20s x 20 m/s  = 400 m

Distance travelled in last 5 s .

deceleration in last 5 s

v = u + at

0 = 20 m/s + a x 5

a = - 4 m/s²

v² = u² - 2 a s

0 = (20 m/s)² - 2 x 4 m/s² x s

s = 50 m

S₃ = 50 m

Total distance = S₁ + S₂ + S₃

= 100 m + 400 m + 50 m

= 550 m .

Average velocity = 550 m / 35 s

= 15.71 m /s .

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Angular velocity (w) = 8.86 rad/s

Explanation:

Angular velocity (w) = \sqrt{} 4ghi/R^{2}

g= 9.81 m/s

R= 0.5

hi (initial depth) = 0.5m

Hence= \sqrt4* 9.81* 0.5/0.5^{2}  = 8.86 rad/s

A device consisting of four heavy balls connected by low-mass rods is free to rotate about an axle. It is initially not spinning
zubka84 [21]

The angular speed of the device is 1.03 rad/s.

<h3>What is the conservation of angular momentum?</h3>

A spinning system's ability to conserve angular momentum ensures that its spin will not change until it is subjected to an external torque; to put it another way, the rotation's speed will not change as long as the net torque is zero.

Using the conservation of angular momentum

L_{i}=L_{f}

Here,  = the system's angular momentum before the collision

L_{i} = 0 + mv

= (0.005)(450)(0.752)

= 1.692 kgm²/s

The moment of inertia of the system is given by

I = 2(M₁R₁² + M₂R₂²)+ mR₁²

= 2[(1.2)(0.8)² +(0.5)(0.3)²]+0.005(0.8)²

= 1.6292 kgm²

Here,  = Iω

So,

1.692 = 1.6292(ω)

ω = 1.03 rad/s
