Answer:

D) 763 nm

Explanation:

Calculation for the wavelength of light

Using this formula

Wavelength of light=Delta Y*Distance / Length

Where,

Delta Y represent the 2nd order bright fringe

Length represent the distance between both the slits and the screen

Distance represent the Distance between the slits

Let note that cm to m = (4.2) x 10^-2 and mm to m= ( 0.0400x 10^-3)

Now Let plug in the formula

Wavelength of light=[(4.2 x 10^-2m)(0.0400 x 10^-3m) / 2(1.1m)]*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light=[(0.042m) (0.0004m)/2.2m]*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =(0.0000168m/2.2m)*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =7.63 *10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =763 nm

Therefore the Wavelength of light will be 763 nm

The Earth and Moon are separated by about 4.0 10^6 m. Suppose Mars is [{MathJax fullWidth='false' 2.9 \times 10^{11} }] m from E
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

a) α=7.9x10^-4 rad

b) θ=1.12x10^-4 rad

c) The Earth and the Moon cannot be seen without a telescope.

Explanation:

In this exercise we will use the concepts of angular resolution, which depends on both the wavelength of the rays and the diameter of the eye or lens on the meter. Its unit of measure is the radian. The attached image shows the solution step by step.

A shopper pushes a 5.32 kg grocery cart
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

\text { acceleration of the cart is } 10.94 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

Explanation:

According to “Newton's second law”

“Force” is “mass” times “acceleration”, or F = m× a. This means an object with a larger mass needs a stronger force to be moved along at the same acceleration as an object with a small mass

Force = mass × acceleration

\text { Acceleration }=\frac{\text { force }}{\text { mass }}

Given that,

Mass = 5.32 kg

\text { Force }=12.7 \mathrm{N} \text { forces at }-28.7^{\circ}

x=-28.7^{\circ}

F = 12.7N

Normal force = mg + F sinx,  

“m” being the object's "mass",  

“g” being the "acceleration of gravity",

“x” being the "angle of the cart"

\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\text { (g is referred to as the acceleration of gravity. Its value is } 9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^ 2 \text { on Earth })

To find normal force substitute the values in the formula,

Normal force = 5.32 × 9.8 + 12.7 × sin(-28.7)

Normal force = 52.136 + 12.7 × 0.480

Normal force = 52.136 + 6.096

Normal force = 58.232 N

<u>Acceleration of the cart</u>:

\text { Acceleration }=\frac{\text {Normal force}}{\text { mass }}

\text { Acceleration }=\frac{58.232}{5.32}

\text { Acceleration }=10.94 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

\text { Therefore, "acceleration of the cart" is } 10.94 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
