Answer:

Highest order: m = 1

Explanation:

Formula for solving this is;

dsin θ_m = mλ

We want to find m, thus;

m = (dsin θ_m)/λ

We are told that White light spans from 380nm - 750 nm. Thus, at maximum, λ = 750 nm.

θ_m = 90°

d = (900 lines/mm) = 9000 × 10^(-7) lines/nm

Since we want to find m, the units nm has to cancel out in the equation.

Thus, we will write d in nm/lines as (10^(7))/9000 nm/lines

Thus;

m = ((10^(7))/9000 × sin 90)/750

m = 1.48

estion: Why is it important to use vector quantities and not just scalar quantities to describe the motion of an object? Vector
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Vector quantities are important in the study of motion. Some examples of vector quantities include force, velocity, acceleration, displacement, and momentum. The difference between a scalar and vector is that a vector quantity has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude. Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. A quantity which does not depend on direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude and a direction. The resulting motion of the aircraft in terms of displacement, velocity, and acceleration are also vector quantities. A vector quantity is different to a scalar quantity because a quantity that has magnitude but no particular direction is described as scalar. A quantity that has magnitude and acts in a particular direction is described as vector.

Which process is the most scientifically plausible explanation for how the organisms released oxygen into Earth's atmosphere? Gr
Stels [109]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Studies about the time period of oxygen accumulation suggests that free oxygen was first produced by prokaryotic and then later by eukaryotic organisms in the ocean. These organisms carried out photosynthesis more efficiently, producing oxygen as a waste product.

The organism mainly responsible for this is known as cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae. These microbes conduct photosynthesis: using sunshine, water and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and, oxygen.

The vertical force f acts downward at A on the two membered frames. Determine the magnitude of the two components of F directed
galben [10]

Answer:

The magnitude will be "353.5 N". A further solution is given below.

Explanation:

The given values is:

F = 500 N

According to the question,

In ΔABC,

⇒ \angle BCA = (90-30)

⇒             =60^{\circ}

then,

⇒ \angle BAC=(180-45-60)

⇒             =75^{\circ}

Now,

The corresponding angle will be:

⇒ \angle FAC=60^{\circ}

⇒ \angle FAB=70+60

⇒             =135^{\circ}

Aspect of F across the AC arm will be:

= F\times cos(60)

On putting the values of F, we get

= 500\times (.5)

= 200 \ Newton

Component F along the AC (in magnitude) will be:

= F\times cos(135)

= 500\times (-.707)

= -353.5 \ N \
