Answer:

0.1 m

Explanation:

d = slit width = 0.1 mm = 0.1 x 10⁻³ m

\lambda = wavelength of monochromatic light = 500 nm = 500 x 10⁻⁹ m

D = Distance of the screen = 10 m

w = Spacing between successive minima

Spacing between successive minima is given as

w = \frac{2D\lambda }{d}

Inserting the values given

w = \frac{2(10)(500\times10^{-9}) }{0.1\times10^{-3}}

w = 0.1 m

TWO QUESTIONS!
solong [7]

The correct answer to the question is : 1) Converting energy and 2) Within about twenty years, natural gas forms.

EXPLANATION:

In coal fired power plants, the water is heated by burning coals. The heat produced in this process will convert water into steam. The steam is allowed to rotate the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator which converts the kinetic energy of the steam into electric energy due to electromagnetic induction.

Hence, turbine helps in converting energy.

As per the second question, Walt listed the steps that occur during the formation of natural gas.

The natural gas is produced due to natural phenomenon. For this, millions of years are passed. So, it is a long range process in which the fossil of animals and planets buried beneath the surface are converted into natural gas under high pressure.

Hence, the mistake of Walt is  that the natural gas is produced withing twenty years.

One of your delivery trucks traveled 1,200 miles on 55 gallons of gas. How many miles per gallon did the truck get? (Round off y
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The word "Per" means divide

"miles per gallon" is the same as "miles / gallon"

The truck went 1,200 miles
on 55 gallons

1,200 ÷ 55 = 21.81

The next four questions refer to the situation below.

Answer:

 t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} t_{in},      t_{out} = \frac{D}{v_s +v_r}

Explanation:

This in a relative velocity exercise in one dimension,

let's start with the swimmer going downstream

its speed is

         v_{sg 1} = v_{sr} + v_{rg}

The subscripts are s for the swimmer, r for the river and g for the Earth

with the velocity constant we can use the relations of uniform motion

           v_{sg1} = D / t_{out}

           D = v_{sg1}  t_{out}

now let's analyze when the swimmer turns around and returns to the starting point

        v_{sg 2} =  v_{sr}  - v_{rg}

         v_{sg 2} = D / t_{in}

         D = v_{sg 2}  t_{in}

with the distance is the same we can equalize

           v_{sg1} t_{out} = v_{sg2} t_{in}

          t_{out} =  t_{in}

           t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} t_{in}

This must be the answer since the return time is known. If you want to delete this time

            t_{in}= D / v_{sg2}

we substitute

            t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} ()

            t_{out} = \frac{D}{v_s +v_r}
