Suppose you and a friend are test driving a new car. You drive out of the car dealership and go 10 miles east and then 8 miles s

outh. Then your friend drives 8 miles west, and 6 miles north. If you had the dealer's homing pigeon in the car. How far do you think it would have to fly to get back to the dealership? Use the simulation to test ideas. The distance that the bird has to fly represents the sum of the 4 displacement vectors. Use the simulation to test ideas you have about vector addition. After your tests, describe how you can use the simulation to add vectors.

a =12miles

b =10miles

ab =2miles

Explanation:

at first the car is drown out of dealership and went 10 miles east and then 8 miles south

then your friend drives 8 miles west and 6 miles north.

then the distance it flies to get back to dealership is

10²+8 ²=12miles

8²+6²=10miles

12-10= 2 miles

Light from a laser strikes a diffraction grating that has 5500 lines per centimeter. The central and first-order maxima are sepa
WINSTONCH [101]

.Answer:

491.4 nm

Explanation:

The distance between central and first maxima is,

y=0.455m

And the distance between screen abnd grating is,

L=1.62 m

Now the angle can be find as,

tan\theta=\frac{y}{L} \\\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{0.455}{1.62})  \\\theta=15.68^{\circ}

Now the grating distance is,

d=\frac{1}{5500} cm\\d=1.82\times 10^{-6}m

Now with m=1 condition will become,

\lambda=dsin\theta

So,

\lambda=1.82\times 10^{-6}m\times sin(15.68^{\circ})\\\lambda=1.82\times 10^{-6}m\times 0.270\\\lambda=491.4\times 10^{-9}m\\\lambda=491.4 nm

Therefore the wavelength of laser light is 491.4 nm.
