The object represented by this graph is moving
Vinil7 [7]

The object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.

Option 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the figure, x-axis is representing increase in the time and y-axis is presenting increase in the distance from bottom to up. But the line in the graph which is plotted is decreasing from high distance to small distance with increase in time. So this indicates that as the time is increasing, the distance is decreasing.

And the object is moving toward the origin as the distance of the object motion is found to decrease with increase of time as per the graph. But the slope of the graph is found to be almost constant, this indicates that the velocity of the object is constant. Thus, the object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.

All but two gaps within a set of Venetian blinds have been blocked off to create a double-slit system. These gaps are separated
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Explanation:

separation between two gaps, d = 5 cm

angle between central and second order maxima, θ = 0.52°

use

d Sinθ = n λ

n = 2

0.05 x Sin 0.52° = 2 x λ

λ = 2.27 x 10^-4 m

λ = 226.9 micro metre
