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 swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.00 m/s, and
garri49 [273]

Answer:

(a) t = 1.14 s

(b) h = 0.82 m

(c) vf = 7.17 m/s

Explanation:

(b)

Considering the upward motion, we apply the third equation of motion:

2gh = v_f^2 - v_i^2

where,

g = - 9.8 m/s² (-ve sign for upward motion)

h = max height reached = ?

vf = final speed = 0 m/s

vi = initial speed = 4 m/s

Therefore,

(2)(9.8\ m/s^2)h = (0\ m/s)^2-(4\ m/s)^2\\

<u>h = 0.82 m</u>

Now, for the time in air during upward motion we use first equation of motion:

v_f = v_i + gt_1\\0\ m/s = 4\ m/s + (-9.8\ m/s^2)t_1\\t_1 = 0.41\ s

(c)

Now we will consider the downward motion and use the third equation of motion:

2gh = v_f^2-v_i^2

where,

h = total height = 0.82 m + 1.8 m = 2.62 m

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

vf = final speed = ?

Therefore,

2(9.8\ m/s^2)(2.62\ m) = v_f^2 - (0\ m/s)^2\\

<u>vf = 7.17 m/s</u>

Now, for the time in air during downward motion we use the first equation of motion:

v_f = v_i + gt_1\\7.17\ m/s = 0\ m/s + (9.8\ m/s^2)t_2\\t_2 = 0.73\ s

(a)

Total Time of Flight = t = t₁ + t₂

t = 0.41 s + 0.73 s

<u>t = 1.14 s</u>

kap26 [50]

Answer: -5013.65\ J

Explanation:

Given

No of moles n=3

Temperature T=290\ K

Initial volume V_1=2\ m^3

Final volume V_2=1\ m^3

Work done in constant temperature process is

W=nRT\ln \left(\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}\right)

Insert the values

\Rightarrow W=3\times 8.314\times 290\ln \left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right)\\\\\Rightarrow W=-870\times 8.314\times \ln (2)\\\Rightarrow W=-5013.65\ J
