Answer:

10 mm

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the spring constant of the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Extention (e) = 5 mm

Force (F) = 125 N

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

125 = K × 5

Divide both side by 5

K = 125 / 5

K = 25 N/mm

Finally, we shall determine how much the spring will stretch when a 250 N force is applied. This can be obtained as follow:

Force (F) = 250 N

Spring constant (K) = 25 N/mm

Extention (e) =?

F = Ke

250 = 25 × e

Divide both side by 25

e = 250 / 25

e = 10 mm

Thus, the spring will stretch 10 mm when a 250 N force is applied.

Parallel rays of monochromatic light with wavelength 571nm illuminate two identical slits and produce an interference pattern on

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength, $\lambda=571 nm=571\times 10^{-9} m$

$1 nm=10^{-9} m$

R=75 cm= $\frac{75}{100}=0.75 m$

1 m=100 cm

$d=0.640 mm=0.64\times 10^{-3} m$

$1 mm=10^{-3} m$

$a=0.434 mm=0.434\times 10^{-3} m$

$y=0.830 mm=0.830\times 10^{-3} m$

$I_0=5.00\times 10^{-4}W/m^2$

$tan\theta=\frac{y}{R}$

$\theta=\frac{0.830\times 10^{-3}}{0.75\times 10^{-2}}$

$\theta=1.1\times 10^{-3}rad$

$tan\theta\approx \theta$

Because $\theta$ is small.

$\phi=\frac{2\pi dsin\theta}{\lambda}$

$\sin\theta\approx \theta$ ,

Therefore

$\phi=\frac{2\times\pi\times 0.64\times 10^{-3}\times 1.1\times 10^{-3}}{571\times 10^{-9}}$

$\phi=7.74 rad$

$\beta=\frac{2\pi a\theta}{\lambda}$

$\beta=5.3 rad$

$I=I_0cos^2(\frac{\phi}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{\beta}{2}}{\frac{\beta}{2}})^2$

$I=5\times 10^{-4}cos^2(\frac{7.74}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{5.3}{2}}{\frac{5.3}{2}})^2$

$I=8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

What happens to balloon filled with air when it goes very high attitude from surface of earth why

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The balloon will continue to expand and eventually burst.

Explanation:

Simply, the reason for this is because the density of the atmosphere decreases gradually as you increase in altitude closer to space. This means that the air on the outside of the balloon can't provide enough pressure over the surface of the balloon in order to counteract the gas on the inside of the balloon from expanding.
