How are interference patterns made?

1 answer:

3 0

To set up a stable and clear interference pattern, two conditions must be met: The sources of the waves must be coherent, which means they emit identical waves with a constant phase difference.

Calculate the change in entropy as 0.3071 kg of ice at 273.15 K melts. (The latent heat of fusion of water is 333000 J / kg)

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

374.39 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of disorder or randomness of a substance.

The S.I unit of entropy is J/K

ΔS = ΔH/T ..................................... Equation 1

Where ΔS = entropy change, ΔH = Heat change, T = temperature.

ΔH = cm................................... Equation 2

Where,

c = specific latent heat of fusion of water = 333000 J/kg, m = mass of ice = 0.3071 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

ΔH = 333000×0.3071

ΔH = 102264.3 J.

Also, T = 273.15 K

Substitute into equation 1

ΔS = 102264.3/273.15

ΔS = 374.39 J/K

Thus, The change in entropy = 374.39 J/K

The dimensions of a cylinder are changing, but the height is always equal to the diameter of the base of the cylinder. If the he

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

dV/dt = 9 cubic inches per second

Explanation:

Let the height of the cylinder is h

Diameter of cylinder = height of the cylinder = h

Radius of cylinder, r = h/2

dh/dt = 3 inches /s

Volume of cylinder is given by

$V = \pi r^{2}h$

put r = h/2 so,

$V = \pi \frac{h^{3}}{4}$

Differentiate both sides with respect to t.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{3h^{2}}{4}\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

Substitute the values, h = 2 inches, dh/dt = 3 inches / s

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{3\times 2\times 2}{4}\times 3$

dV/dt = 9 cubic inches per second

Thus, the volume of cylinder increases by the rate of 9 cubic inches per second.

How much time will it take to do 33j of work with 11 w of power

Yuri [45]

Time required : 3 s

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Power is the work done/second.

$\tt P=\dfrac{W}{t}\\\\P=power,j/s,watt\\\\W=work, J\\\\t=times=s$

To do 33 J of work with 11 W of power

P = 11 W

W = 33 J

$\tt t=\dfrac{W}{P}\\\\t=\dfrac{33}{11}\\\\t=\boxed{\bold{3~s}}$

if you use the compound pulley, you will need to pull twice the distance but with less force. the force you need is equal to one

algol13

Answer:

F= 25/2 = 12.5N

Explanation:

When you use a compound pulley the force required depends on the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley. This is known as rate of loss of distance or the ratio of the force to the load.

M.A = Effort distance /Load distance. OR M.A = Load/Effort

Does a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis satisfy the first and second conditions for equilibrium?

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis does not satisfy both the condition of equilibrium .

First condition of equilibrium is that net force on the body should be zero.

or F net = 0

A body under uniform rotation is experiencing a centripetal force all the time so F net ≠ 0

So first condition of equilibrium is not satisfied.

Second condition is that , net torque acting on the body must be zero.

In case of a rigid object in uniform rotation , centripetal force is applied towards the centre ie towards the line joining the body under rotation with the axis .

F is along r

torque = r x F

= r F sinθ

θ = 0 degree

torque = 0

Hence 2nd condition is fulfilled.
