Ep=m*g*h
If h doubles Ep=m*g*2h
Meaning Ep=1*1*2
Ep=2
So 3)potential energy doubles.

A diffraction grating contains 15,000 lines/inch. We pass a laser beam through the grating. The wavelength of the laser is 633 n
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Recall the Diffraction grating formula for constructive interference of a light

y = nDλ/w                                      Eqn 1

Where;

w = width of slit = 1/15000in =6.67x10⁻⁵in =   6.67x10⁻⁵ x 0.0254m = 1.69x10⁻⁶m

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  = 1

Given  

y1 = ? from 1st order max to the central  

D = 2.66 m  

λ = 633 x 10-9 m  

and n = 1  

y₁ = 0.994m  

Distance (m) from the central maximum (n = 0) is the first-order maximum (n = 1)                =         0.994m

Q b. How far (m) from the central maximum (m = 0) is the second-order maximum (m = 2) observed?

w = width of slit = 1/15000in =6.67x10⁻⁵in =   6.67x10⁻⁵ x 0.0254m = 1.69x10⁻⁶m

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  = 1

Given  

y1 = ? from 1st order max to the central  

D = 2.66 m  

λ = 633 x 10⁻⁹ m  

and n =  2

y₂ = 0.994m  

Distance (m) from the central maximum (n = 0) is the first-order maximum (n = 2) =1.99m

What is thermal energy?A hot potato at 100 ºF is placed in a bowl of soup at 80 ºF. The surrounding room is at 65ºF. Which corre
jasenka [17]

Answer:

1. Thermal Energy is the internal energy that is produced from the temperature of a heated substance/object.

2. From the potato to the soup and from the soup to the surrounding room

Explanation:

1. When an object or substance is heated it causes a rise in temperature which makes the atoms and molecules within the object move/vibrate faster and collide with each other. This kinetic energy energy comes from the temperature of the object being heated and is the thermal energy.

2. The atoms present in a hot object have higher kinetic energy when compared to a colder object and usually flow towards the colder object. This is why it is possible for the hot potato whose temperature is higher than the bowl of soup to flow towards the soup and from the soup to the surrounding room.

On his fishing trip Justin takes the boat 25 km south. The fish aren’t biting so he goes 10 km west. He follows a school of fish
S_A_V [24]

Distance is 50 km

Displacement is 10 km

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Distance toward south, x = 25 km

Distance towards west, y = 10 km

Distance towards north, z = 15 km

(a) Total distance, D = ?

Total distance, D = x + y + z

                       D = 25 + 10 + 15

                       D = 50km

(b) Displacement, d = ?

Displacement = final position - initial position

                      = 10 - 0 km

                      = 10km

13) A mass attached to the free end of a spring executes simple harmonic motion according to the equation y = (0.50 m) sin (18π
Kitty [74]

Hi there!

The period is given by:

T = \frac{2\pi}{w}

T = Period (sec)

w = angular frequency (rad/sec)

According to the equation for SHM in terms of position:

y(t) = Asin(ωt + φ)

A = Amplitude (m)

ω = angular frequency (rad/sec)

t = time (sec)

φ = phase angle

In this instance, the angular frequency is given as 18π.

Plug this value into the equation for T:

T= \frac{2\pi}{18\pi} = \frac{1}{9} = \boxed{0.111 s}

What if when I find my product, I get the same compound as I did in my reactant? For example, FeCl3 + HCl ->FeCl3 + HCl. Then something is wrong. In this case, FeCl3 and HCl usually don't react. In very concentrated solutions of HCl, the FeCl4^- or FeCl6^-3 ion can form. In... There you go my friend
