Visible light passes through a diffraction grating that has 900 slits per centimeter, and the interference pattern is observed o

n a screen that is 2.30m from the grating.In the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 2.98 mm. What is the difference between these wavelengths?

Answer:

\Delta \lambda=14.3\ nm

Explanation:

It is given that,

The number of lines per unit length, N = 900 slits per cm

Distance between the formed pattern and the grating, l = 2.3 m

n the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 2.98 mm, \Delta Y=2.98\ mm = 0.00298\ m

Let d is the slit width of the grating,

d=\dfrac{1}{N}

d=\dfrac{1}{900\ cm}

d=1.11\times 10^{-5}\ m

For the first wavelength, the position of maxima is given by :

y_1=\dfrac{L\lambda_1}{d}

For the other wavelength, the position of maxima is given by :

y_2=\dfrac{L\lambda_2}{d}

So,

\Delta \lambda=\dfrac{\Delta y d}{l}

\Delta \lambda=\dfrac{0.00298\times 1.11\times 10^{-5}}{2.3}

\Delta \lambda=1.43\times 10^{-8}\ m

or

\Delta \lambda=14.3\ nm

So, the difference between these wavelengths is 14.3 nm. Hence, this is the required solution.

LenaWriter [7]
During that period of time, the bird's displacement was 4 km east. So its velocity was (4km east)/(11hrs). That's 0.36 km/hour east. (rounded)

1. What did you observe about the magnitudes of the forces on the two charges? Were they the same or different? Does your answer
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

Its strength from both charges is equivalent or identical. The power is equal. And it is passed down

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Therefore, the extent doesn't rely on the fact that charges are the same or different. Newton's third law complies with Electrostatic Charges due to a couple of charges. They are similar in magnitude, and they're in the other way.

|F_{12}| = |F_{21}|
