In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the

first light source has a wavelength of 640 nm. Two different interference patterns are observed. If the 10th order bright fringe from the first light source coincides with the 12th order bright fringe from the second light source, what is the wavelength of the light coming from the second monochromatic light source

Answer:

533.33 nm

Explanation:

Since dsinθ = mλ  for each slit, where m = order of slit and λ = wavelength of light. Let m' = 10 th order fringe of the first slit of wavelength of light, λ = 640 nm and m"= 12 th order fringe of the second slight of wavelength of light, λ'.

Since the fringes coincide,

m'λ = m"λ'

λ' = m'λ/m"

= 10 × 640 nm/12

= 6400 nm/12

= 533.33 nm

What is the major difference between the natural frequency and the damped frequency of oscillation.​
natita [175]

Answer:

This causes the amplitude of the oscillation to decay over time. The damped oscillation frequency does not equal the natural frequency. Damping causes the frequency of the damped oscillation to be slightly less than the natural frequency

suppose a ball is thrown vertically upward. Eight seconds later it returns to its point of release. What is the initial velocity
valentinak56 [21]
The ball took half of the total time ... 4 seconds ... to reach its highest
point, where it began to fall back down to the point of release.

At its highest point, its velocity changed from upward to downward. 
At that instant, its velocity was zero.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².  That means that an object that's
acted on only by gravity gains 9.8 m/s of downward speed every second. 

-- If the object is falling downward, it moves 9.8 m/s faster every second.

-- If the object is tossed upward, it moves 9.8 m/s slower every second.

The ball took 4 seconds to lose all of its upward speed.  So it must have
been thrown upward at  (4 x 9.8 m/s)  =  39.2 m/s .

(That's about  87.7 mph straight up.  Somebody had an amazing pitching arm.)

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Chemical composition, Temperature, Radial velocity, Size or diameter of the star, Rotation.

Explanation:  

Elemental abundances are determined by analyzing the relative strengths of the absorption lines in the spectrum of a star.

The Spectral class to which the star belongs gives the information related to the temperature of the star. It is the spectral lines that determine the spectral class O B A F G K M are the spectral classes.

By measuring the wavelengths of the lines in the star's spectrum gives the radial velocity. Doppler shift is the method used to find the radial velocity.

A star can be classified as a giant or a dwarf . A giant star will have narrow width spectral lines whereas a dwarf star has wider spectral lines.

Broadening of the spectral lines will determine the star's rotation.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

82.4 cm

Explanation:

The object and screen are kept fixed ie the distance between them is fixed and by displacing lens between them images are formed on the screen . In the first case let u be the object distance and v be the image distance

then ,

u + v = 184 cm

In the second case of image formation , v becomes u and u becomes v only then image formation in the second case is possible.

The difference between two object distance ie(  v - u ) is the distance by which lens is moved so

v - u = 82.4 cm
