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}.

Alika [10]

Answer:

Number of revolutions=1.532 revolutions

Explanation:

Given data

Distance s=8.0 m

Angular speed a=1.2 rev/s

To find

Number of revolutions

Solution

From the equation of simple motion we not that

S=ut+1/2gt^{2}\\ where\\u=0\\So\\8.0m=0+(1/2)(9.8m/s^{2} )t^{2}\\ t^{2}=\frac{8.0m}{0.5*9.8m/s^{2} } \\ t^{2}=1.63\\t=\sqrt{1.63} \\t=1.28s

So for the number of revolutions she makes is given as

n=a*t\\n=(1.2rev/s)(1.28s)\\n=1.532revolutions

According to the second law of thermodynamics, it is impossible for ____________. According to the second law of thermodynamics,
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

It's impossible for an ideal heat engine to have non-zero power.

Explanation:

Option A is incomplete and so it's possible.

Option B is possible

Option D is related to the first lae and has nothing to do with the second law.

Hence, the correct option is C.

The ideal engine follows a reversible cycle albeit an infinitely slow one. If the work is being done at this infinitely slow rate, the power of such an engine is zero.

We can also stat the second law of thermodynamics in this manner;

It is impossible to construct a cyclical heat engine whose sole effect is the continuous transfer of heat energy from a colder object to a hotter one.

This statement is known as second form or Clausius statement of the second law.

Thus, it is possible to construct a machine in which a heat flow from a colder to a hotter object is accompanied by another process, such as work input.
