Answer:

a=12.97\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of a string, l = 0.87 m

Speed of the ball, v = 3.36 m/s

We need to find the acceleration of the ball. The acceleration acting on the ball is centripetal acceleration. It is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}\\\\a=\dfrac{(3.36)^2}{0.87}\\\\=12.97\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the ball is 12.97\ m/s^2.

A laser emits two wavelengths (λ1 = 420 nm; λ2 = 630 nm). When these two wavelengths strike a grating with 450 lines/mm, they pr
Westkost [7]

A) Order of the first laser: 3, order of the second laser: 2

B) The overlap occurs at an angle of 34.9^{\circ}

Explanation:

A)

The formula that gives the position of the maxima (bright fringes) for a diffraction grating is

d sin \theta = m \lambda

where

d is spacing between the lines in the grating

\theta is the angle of the maximum

m is the order of diffraction

\lambda is the wavelength of the light

For laser 1,

d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1

For laser 2,

d sin \theta = m_2 \lambda_2

where

\lambda_1 = 420 nm\\\lambda_2 = 630 nm

Since the position of the maxima in the two cases overlaps, then the term d sin \theta on the left is the same for the two cases, therefore we can write:

m_1 \lambda_1 = m_2 \lambda_2\\\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}=\frac{630}{420}=\frac{3}{2}

Therefore:

m_1 = 3

m_2 = 2

B)

In order to find the angle at which the overlap occurs, we use the 1st laser situation:

d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1

where:

N = 450 lines/mm = 450,000 lines/m is the number of lines per unit length, so the spacing between the lines is

d=\frac{1}{N}=\frac{1}{450,000}=2.2\cdot 10^{-6} m

m_1 = 3 is the order of the maximum

\lambda_1 = 420 nm = 420\cdot 10^{-9} m is the wavelength of the laser light

Solving for \theta, we find the angle of the maximum:

sin \theta = \frac{m_1 \lambda_1}{d}=\frac{(3)(420\cdot 10^{-9})}{2.2\cdot 10^{-6}}=0.572

So the angle is

\theta=sin^{-1}(0.572)=34.9^{\circ}

Betty (mass 40 kg), standing on slippery ice, catches her leaping dog (mass 15 kg) moving horizontally at 3.0 m/s. Show that the
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

v = 2.18m/s

Explanation:

In order to calculate the speed of Betty and her dog you take into account the law of momentum conservation. The total momentum before Betty catches her dog must be equal to the total momentum after.

Then you have:

Mv_{1o}+mv_{2o}=(M+m)v        (1)

M: mass Betty = 40kg

m: mass of the dog = 15kg

v1o: initial speed of Betty = 3.0m/s

v2o: initial speed of the dog = 0 m/s

v: speed of both Betty and her dog = ?

You solve the equation (1) for v:

v=\frac{Mv_{1o}+mv_{2o}}{M+m}=\frac{(40kg)(3.0m/s)+(15kg)(0m/s)}{40kg+15kg}\\\\v=2.18m/s

The speed fo both Betty and her dog is 2.18m/s

A 250. mL sample of gas at 1.00 atm and 20.0°C has the temperature increased to 40.0°C and the volume increased to 500. mL. What
ladessa [460]

Answer:

New pressure is 0.534 atm

Explanation:

Given:

Initial volume of the gas, V₁ = 250 mL

Initial pressure of the gas, P₁ = 1.00 atm

Initial temperature of the gas, T₁ = 20° C = 293 K

Final volume of the gas, V₂ = 500 mL

Final pressure of the gas = P₂

Final temperature of the gas, T₁ = 40° C = 313 K

now,

we know for a gas

PV = nRT

where,

n is the moles

R is the ideal gas constant

also, for a constant gas

we have

(P₁V₁/T₁) = (P₂V₂/T₂)

on substituting the values in the above equation, we get

(1.00 × 250)/293 = (P₂ × 500)/313

or

P₂ = 0.534 atm

Hence, the <u>new pressure is 0.534 atm</u>

Which of these instruments is listed with the wrong type of lens that it uses?
VikaD [51]

The wrong type of lens-Microscope, concave

Explanation:

A microscope Basically  uses t<u>wo convex lenses to magnify an object, or specimen.</u>

There are  2 lenses in a microscope

  1. <u>Object Lens:</u>The lens that is closer to the object
  2. <u>Eyepiece:</u>The lens that is closer to the eye

Both the object lens and the  eyepiece, is a convex lens.
