A diffraction grating is placed 1.00 m from a viewing screen. Light from a hydrogen lamp goes through the grating. A hydrogen sp

ectral line with a wavelength of 656 nm is seen 60.0 cm to one side of the center. Then, the hydrogen lamp is replaced with an unknown lamp. A spectral line is seen on the screen 36.4 cm away from the center. What is the wavelength of this spectral line

Answer:

λ = 396.7 nm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the diffraction ratio of a grating

           d sin θ = m λ

in general the networks works in the first order m = 1

we can use trigonometry, remembering that in diffraction experiments the angles are small

           tan θ = y / L

           tan θ = \frac{sin \theta}{cos \theta} = sin θ

           sin θ = y / L

we substitute

          d \  \frac{y}{L} = m λ

with the initial data we look for the distance between the lines

           d = \frac{m \lambda \ L}{y}

           d = 1 656 10⁻⁹ 1.00 / 0.600

            d = 1.09 10⁻⁶ m

for the unknown lamp we look for the wavelength

           λ = d y / L m

           λ = 1.09 10⁻⁶ 0.364 / 1.00 1

           λ = 3.9676 10⁻⁷ m

           λ = 3.967 10⁻⁷ m

         

we reduce nm

           λ = 396.7 nm

Kim throws a beach ball up in the air. It reaches its maximum height 0.50s later. We can ignore air resistance. What was the bea
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is <u>4.9 m/s.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Time taken by the ball to reach maximum height is, t=0.50\ s

We know that, velocity of an object at the highest point is always zero. So, final velocity of the ball is, v=0\ m/s

Also, acceleration acting on the ball is always due to gravity. So, acceleration of the ball is, a=g=-9.8\ m/s^2

The negative sign is used as acceleration is a vector and it acts in the downward direction.

Now, we have the equation of motion relating initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and time given as:

v=u+at

Where, 'u' is the initial velocity.

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

0=u-9.8(0.5)\\u=9.8\times 0.5\\u=4.9\ m/s

Therefore, the beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is 4.9 m/s

Distance travelled can be found from the
meriva

Answer:

A

Explanation:

This is because distance traveled (i.e. displacement) is the integral of the velocity function, and velocity is the first derivative of the displacement function. To put this in perspective, the area bounded by a curve can be found by taking the integral of the equation of the curve, taking values on the x-axis as limits.

The speed of light in air is 3 x 108 m/s. The speed of light in ice is 2.29 x 108 m/s. What is the refractive index from air to
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

η = 1.31

Explanation:

The formula for the refractive index of from air to some other medium is given by the following formula:

\eta = \frac{c}{v}\\

where,

η = refractive index = ?

c = speed of light in air = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

v = speed of light in ice = 2.29 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore, using these values in the equation we get:

\eta = \frac{3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}{2.29\ x\ 10^8\ m/s} \\

<u>η = 1.31</u>

The speed of sound at temperature of________in the air is 360m/s.​
Aleks04 [339]

Vo= 331+0.6T

360=331+0.6T

360-331=0.6T

29=0.6T

0.6T/29

T=6/290 so change it to simplest form and us formulas good luck
