Answer:

Explanation:

The question does not specify any outside forces that could slow down the ball horizontally. There fore the ball does not accelerate or decelerate horizontally. Therefore, a = 0m/s2

Light of wavelength 650 nm is normally incident on the rear of a grating. The first bright fringe (other than the central one) i

koban [17]

Answer:

$N = 1340.86 \ slits / cm$

$\theta = 15.7^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is $\lambda = 650 \ nm = 650 *10^{-9} \ m$

The angle of first bright fringe is $\theta = 5^o$

The order of the fringe considered is n =1

Generally the condition for constructive interference is

$dsin (\theta ) = n * \lambda$

=> $d = \frac{1 * 650 *10^{-9 }}{ sin(5)}$

=> $d = 7.458 *10^{-6} \ m$

Converting to cm

$d = 7.458 *10^{-6} \ m = 7.458 *10^{-6} * 100 = 0.0007458 \ cm$

Generally the number of grating pre centimeter is mathematically represented as

$N = \frac{1}{d}$

=> $N = \frac{1}{0.0007458}$

=> $N = 1340.86 \ slits / cm$

Considering question B

From the question we are told that

The first wavelength is $\lambda_1 = 650 \ nm = 650 *10^{-9} \ m$

The second wavelength is $\lambda_2 = 429 \ m = 420 *10^{-9 } \ m$

The order of the fringe is $n = 2$

The grating is $N = 5000 \ slits / cm$

Generally the slit width is mathematically represented as

$d = \frac{1}{N }$

=> $d = \frac{1}{ 5000 }$

=> $d = 0.0002 \ c m = 2.0 *10^{-6} \ m$

Generally the condition for constructive interference for the first ray is mathematically represented as

$d sin(\theta_1) = n * \lambda_1$

=> $\theta_1 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 * \lambda }{d}]$

=> $\theta_1 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 * 650 *10^{-9} }{ 2*10^{-6}}]$

=> $\theta_1 = 40.5 ^o$

Generally the condition for constructive interference for the second ray is mathematically represented as

$d sin(\theta_2) = n * \lambda_2$

=> $\theta_2 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 * \lambda_1 }{d}]$

=> $\theta_2 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 * 420 *10^{-9} }{ 2*10^{-6}}]$

=> $\theta_2 = 24.8 ^o$

Generally the angular separation is mathematically represented as

$\theta = \theta_1 - \theta_1$

=> $\theta = 42.5^o - 24.8^o$

=> $\theta = 15.7^o$

Reflection off of a smooth surface like a mirror is an example of diffuse reflection.

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. ... This is called diffuse reflection. Diffuse reflection is when light hits an object and reflects in lots of different directions.

Two blocks, joined by a string, have masses of 6.0 and 9.0 kg. They rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A second string,

Lynna [10]

Answer:

T= 27 N

Explanation:

Assuming that the string joining both masses is massless and inextensible, both masses accelerate at the same rate.

So, we can treat to both masses as a single system, and apply Newton's 2nd Law to both masses.

In this way, we can get the value of the acceleration without taking into account the tension in the string, as it is an internal force (actually a action-reaction pair).

Newton's 2nd law is a vector equation, so we can decompose the forces along perpendicular axis in order to convert it in two algebraic equations.

We can choose one axis as parallel to the horizontal surface (we call it x-axis, being the positive direction the one of the movement of the blocks due to the horizontal force applied to the 6.0 kg block), and the other, perpendicular to it, so it is vertical (we call y-axis, being the upward direction the positive one).

Taking into account the forces acting on both masses, we can write both equations as follows:

Fy = N- (m₁+m₂)*g = 0 (as there is no movement in the vertical direction)

Fx = Fh = (m₁ + m₂) * a ⇒ 45 N = 15.0 kg * a

⇒ a = 45 N / 15.0 kg = 3 m/s²

Now, in order to get the value of the tension T, we can choose as our system, to any mass, and apply Newton's 2nd Law again.

If we choose to the mass of 6.0 kg, in the horizontal direction, there are two forces acting on it, in opposite directions: the horizontal applied force of 45 N, and the tension in the string that join both masses.

The difference of both forces, must be equal to the mass (of this block only) times the acceleration, as follows:

F- T = m₂* a ⇒ 45 N - T = 6.0 kg * 3 m/s²

⇒ T = 45 N -18 N = 27 N

We could have arrived to the same result taking the 9.0 Kg as our system, as the only force acting in the horizontal direction is just the tension in the string that we are trying to find out, as follows:

F = m₁*a = 9.0 kg* 3 m/s² = 27 N

The greater the mass is in an object, the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have.

Bond [772]

True. Since Inertia states this law, we are bound to believe greater mass = greater resistance in change of motion
