Answer:

L = 2.8 cm

Explanation:

Period T = 4 / 12 = 1/3 s

T = 2π√(L/g)

L = (T/2π)²g

L = ((1/3)/2π)²9.8 = 0.02758... ≈ 2.8 cm

Coherent light of wavelength 525 nm passes through two thin slits that are 4.15Ã—10^(âˆ’2) mm apart and then falls on a screen 7

IRINA_888 [86]

A) 4.7 cm

The formula for the angular spread of the nth-maximum from the central bright fringe for a diffraction from two slits is

$sin \theta=\frac{n \lambda}{d}$

where

n is the order of the maximum

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

$a$ is the distance between the slits

In this problem,

n = 5

$\lambda=525 nm =5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m$

$a=4.15\cdot 10^{-2} mm=4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m$

So we find

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(5)(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=3.62^{\circ}$

And given the distance of the screen from the slits,

$D=75.0 cm = 0.75 m$

The distance of the 5th bright fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 3.62^{\circ}=0.047 m = 4.7 cm$

B) 8.1 cm

The formula to find the nth-minimum (dark fringe) in a diffraction pattern from double slit is a bit differente from the previous one:

$sin \theta=\frac{(n+\frac{1}{2}) \lambda}{d}$

To find the angle corresponding to the 8th dark fringe, we substitute n=8:

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(8+\frac{1}{2})(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=6.17^{\circ}$

And the distance of the 8th dark fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 6.17^{\circ}=0.081 m = 8.1 cm$

Which of the following is true for a parallel circuit? The current is the same across all resistors in the circuit. The voltage

wel

A Parallel circuit has certain characteristics and basic rules: A parallel circuit has two or more paths for current to flow through. Voltage is the same across each component of the parallel circuit. The sum of the currents through each path is equal to the total current that flows from the source.

Describe a ball's motion as it rolls up a slanted

emmasim [6.3K]

The ball will decelerate as it moves upwards.

The magnitude of the ball's acceleration is 0.3 m/s² and it directed backwards.

The given parameters;

initial velocity of the ball, u = 1.25 m/s
time of motion of the ball, t = 4.22 s

As the ball rolls up the inclined plane, the velocity decreases and eventually becomes zero when the ball reaches the highest point of the plane.

Thus, the ball decelerate as it moves upwards.

The acceleration of the ball is calculate as;

$a = \frac{v_f -v_0}{t} \\\\$

<em>at the highest point on the incline plane, the final velocity </em> $v_f$ <em> is zero</em>

$a = \frac{0-1.25}{4.22} \\\\a = -0.3 \ m/s^2$

Thus, the magnitude of the ball's acceleration is 0.3 m/s² and it directed backwards.
