Answer:

<em>Part A</em><em>:</em>

a) If the wavelength of the light is decreased the fringe spacing Δy will decrease.

<em>Part B</em><em>:</em>

b) If the spacing between the slits is decreased the fringe spacing Δy will increase.

<em>Part C</em><em>:</em>

a) If the distance to the screen is decreased the fringe spacing will decrease.

<em>Part D</em><em>:</em>

The dot in the center of fringe E is $920\ x\ 10^{-9} m$ farther from the left slit than from the right slit.

Explanation:

In the double-slit experiment there is a clear contrast between the dark and bright fringes, that indicate destructive and constructive interference respectively, in the central peak and then is less so at either side.

The position of bright fringes in the screen where the pattern is formed can be calculated with

$\vartriangle y =\frac{m \lambda L}{d}$

$m=0,\pm 1,\pm 2,\pm 3,.....$

m is the order number.
$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the monochromatic light.
L is the distance between the screen and the two slits.
d is the distance between the slits.

Part A: a) In the above equation for the position of bright fringes we can see that if the wavelength of the light $\lambda$ is decreased the overall effect will be that the fringes are going to be closer. That means that the fringe spacing Δy will decrease.

Part B: b) In the above equation for the position of bright fringes we can see that if the spacing between the slits d is decreased the fringes are going to be wider apart. That means the fringe spacing Δy will increase.
Part C: a) In the above equation we can see that if the distance to the screen L is decreased the fringes are going to be closer. That means the fringe spacing Δy will decrease.

Part D: We are told that the central maximum is the fringe C that corresponds with m=0. That means that fringe E corresponds with the order number m=2 if we consider it to be the second maximum at the rigth of the central one. To calculate how much farther from the left slit than from the right slit is a dot located at the center of the fringe E in the screen we use the condition for constructive interference. That says that the path length difference Δr between rays coming from the left and right slit must be $\vartriangle r=m \lambda$

We simply replace the values in that equation :

$\vartriangle r= m \lambda =2.\ 460\ nm$

$\vartriangle r= 920\ x\ 10^{-9} m$

The dot in the center of fringe E is $920\ x\ 10^{-9}m$ farther from the left slit than from the right slit.

Convert the following to relative uncertainties <br>a) 2.70 ± 0.05cm<br>b) 12.02 ± 0.08cm

DENIUS [597]

data which is expressed in form of following way

$a = a_o + \Delta a$

here in above expression

$a_o$ = true value

$\Delta a$ = uncertainty in the value

now the relative uncertainty is given as

$\frac{\Delta a}{a_o}$

now by above formula we can say

a) 2.70 ± 0.05cm

here

True value = 2.70

uncertainty = 0.05

Relative uncertainty = $\frac{0.05}{2.70}$ = 0.0185

b) 12.02 ± 0.08cm

here

True value = 12.02

uncertainty = 0.08

Relative uncertainty = $\frac{0.08}{12.02}$ = 0.00665

The maximum speed with which you can throw a stone is about 20 m/s. Can you hit a window 45 m away horizontally and 10 m up from

Allushta [10]

Answer:

y = 17 m

Explanation:

For this projectile launch exercise, let's write the equation of position

x = v₀ₓ t

y = $v_{oy}$ t - ½ g t²

let's substitute

45 = v₀ cos θ t

10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

the maximum height the ball can reach where the vertical velocity is zero

v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

0 = v₀ sin θ - gt

0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

Let's write our system of equations

45 = v₀ cos θ t

10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

We have a system of three equations with three unknowns for which it can be solved.

Let's use the last two

v₀ sin θ = 9.8 t

we substitute

10 = (9.8 t) t - ½ 9.8 t2

10 = ½ 9.8 t2

10 = 4.9 t2

t = √ (10 / 4.9)

t = 1,429 s

Now let's use the first equation and the last one

45 = v₀ cos θ t

0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

9.8 t = v₀ sin θ

45 / t = v₀ cos θ

we divide

9.8t / (45 / t) = tan θ

tan θ = 9.8 t² / 45

θ = tan⁻¹ ( 9.8 t² / 45 )

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.4447)

θ = 24º

Now we can calculate the maximum height

v_y² = $v_{oy}^2$ - 2 g y

vy = 0

y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

y = (20 sin 24)²/2 9.8

y = 3,376 m

the other angle that gives the same result is

θ‘= 90 - θ

θ' = 90 -24

θ'= 66'

for this angle the maximum height is

y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

y = (20 sin 66)²/2 9.8

y = 17 m

thisis the correct

A force off 700 newtons is applied to a 600 kg bowling ball. What is the acceleration of the bowling ball once the force is appl

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

$a = \frac{700}{600} = \frac{7}{6} \\ = 1.1666666...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A 10 kg cart is rolling across a parking lot with a velocity of .5 m/s. What is its momentum?

-Dominant- [34]

Hello!

$\large\boxed{p = 5 \text{ } kgm/s}$

Use the equation for momentum:

$p = mv$

Plug in the given mass and velocity into the equation:

$p = 10 * 0.5$

$p = 5 kgm/ s$
