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.

Answer:

Mistakes, chaos theory.

Explanation:

Weather forecast refers to the application of technology and science in predicting what the condition's of an atmosphere would be at a particular time in a given location. Keyword here is "Predicting."

To accurately "predict" the weather, observation data needs to be collected from weather stations across the world. The data collected from the stations are too complex such that they can only be processed by supercomputers.

It is important to note that supercomputers used to predict weather are liable to make mistakes because the enormous challenge of weather forecasting is more than their capabilities.

In addition, there is a concept known as chaos theory. It explains how very small changes in initial weather conditions can change the final results. No thanks to chaos, meteorologists would not be able to predict weather accurately.

This is the reason why the world still suffers from the incidence of surprise rain, storms and other weather events that could be devastating.

A thin double convex glass lens with an index of 1.56 while surrounded by air has a 10 cm focal length. If it is placed under wa

bearhunter [10]

Explanation:

Formula which holds true for a leans with radii $R_{1}$ and $R_{2}$ and index refraction n is given as follows.

$\frac{1}{f} = (n - 1) [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

Since, the lens is immersed in liquid with index of refraction $n_{1}$ . Therefore, focal length obeys the following.

$\frac{1}{f_{1}} = \frac{n - n_{1}}{n_{1}} [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

$\frac{1}{f(n - 1)} = [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

and, $\frac{n_{1}}{f(n - n_{1})} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}$

or, $f_{1} = \frac{fn_{1}(n - 1)}{(n - n_{1})}$

$f_{w} = \frac{10 \times 1.33 \times (1.56 - 1)}{(1.56 - 1.33)}$

= 32.4 cm

Using thin lens equation, we will find the focal length as follows.

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{s_{o}} + \frac{1}{s_{i}}$

Hence, image distance can be calculated as follows.

$\frac{1}{s_{i}} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{s_{o}} = \frac{s_{o} - f}{fs_{o}}$

$s_{i} = \frac{fs_{o}}{s_{o} - f}$

$s_{i} = \frac{32.4 \times 100}{100 - 32.4}$

= 47.9 cm

Therefore, we can conclude that the focal length of the lens in water is 47.9 cm.

Rock X is released from rest at the top of a cliff that is on Earth. A short time later, Rock Y is released from rest from the s

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

C) True. S increases with time, v₁ = gt and v₂ = g (t-t₀) we see that for the same t v₁> v₂

Explanation:

You have several statements and we must select which ones are correct. The best way to do this is to raise the problem.

Let's use the vertical launch equation. The positive sign because they indicate that the felt downward is taken as an opponent.

Stone 1

y₁ = v₀₁ t + ½ g t²

y₁ = 0 + ½ g t²

Rock2

It comes out a little later, let's say a second later, we can use the same stopwatch

t ’= (t-t₀)

y₂ = v₀₂ t ’+ ½ g t’²

y₂ = 0 + ½ g (t-t₀)²

y₂ = + ½ g (t-t₀)²

Let's calculate the distance between the two rocks, it should be clear that this equation is valid only for t> = to

S = y₁ -y₂

S = ½ g t²– ½ g (t-t₀)²

S = ½ g [t² - (t²- 2 t to + to²)]

S = ½ g (2 t t₀ - t₀²)

S = ½ g t₀ (2 t -t₀)

This is the separation of the two bodies as time passes, the amount outside the Parentheses is constant.

For t <to. The rock y has not left and the distance increases

For t> = to. the ratio (2t/to-1)> 1 therefore the distance increases as time

passes

Now we can analyze the different statements

A) false. The difference in height increases over time

B) False S increases

C) Certain s increases with time, v₁ = gt and V₂ = g (t-t₀) we see that for the same t v₁> v₂
