Coherent light from a sodium-vapor lamp is passed through a filter that blocks everything except for light of a single wavelengt

h. It then falls on two slits separated by 0.460 mm. In the resulting interference pattern on a screen 2.20 m away, adjacent bright fringes are separated by 2.82 mm. What is the wavelength of the light that falls on the slits

Answer:

5.896\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}

Explanation:

D = Distance of the screen from the light source = 2.2 m

d = Distance between slits = 0.46 mm

m = Order

Distance between adjacent bright fringes is 2.82 m

y_{m+1}-y_m=2.82\ \text{mm}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{D(m+1)\lambda}{d}-\dfrac{Dm\lambda}{d}=2.82\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{D\lambda}{d}(m+1-m)=2.82\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{d}{D}2.82\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{0.46\times 10^{-3}\times 2.82\times 10^{-3}}{2.2}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=5.896\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}

The wavelength of the light that falls on the slits is 5.896\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}.

A pendulum consists of a 1.7-kg block hanging on a 1.6-m length string. A 0.01-kg bullet moving with a horizontal velocity of 82
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

0.42 m

Explanation:

mass of pendulum, M = 1.7 kg

Length of pendulum , l = 1.6 m

mass of bullet, m = 0.01 kg

initial velocity of bullet, u = 828 m/s

final velocity of bullet, v = 340 m/s

initial velocity of pendulum, U = 0

Let the final velocity of pendulum is V.

Use conservation of momentum for bullet and the pendulum

m x u + M x U = m x v + M x V

0.01 x 828 + 1.7 x 0 = 0.01 x 340 + 1.7 x V

8.28 + 0 = 3.4 = 1.7 V

V = 2.87 m/s

Now the kinetic energy of the pendulum is converted into potential energy of pendulum and let it raised to a height of h from the initial level.

Use energy conservation

Kinetic energy of the pendulum  = potential energy of the pendulum

0.5 x M x V² = M x g x h

0.5 x 2.87 x 2.87 = 9.8 x h

h = 0.42 m

Citrus2011 [14]
The momentum of both the identical balls would eventually be transferred to one another when it comes to a point wherein they will collide. In addition, the phenomenon is called an elastic collision wherein both the momentum and energy of the system would considered to be conserved.
