Answer:

λ = 5.773 x 10⁻⁷ m = 577.3 nm

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we will use the grating equation:

mλ = d Sin θ

where,

m = order = 3

λ = wavelength of light = ?

d = slit separation = 2 μm = 2 x 10⁻⁶ m

θ = angle = 60°

Therefore,

(3)λ = (2 x 10⁻⁶ m)Sin 60°

λ = 1.732 x 10⁻⁶ m/3

1. Which wave refracts?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

I want to say your answer is A) an ocean wave approaching the shore at an angle. But not 100% sure. I'm so sorry if it's wrong I really tried to figure it out.

Explanation:

Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another. Refaction , or the bending of the path of the waves, is accompanied by a change in speed and wavelength of the waves. Thus, if water waves are passing from deep water into shallow water, they will slow down. ( This is what I read on google maybe it'll help you out).

The current theory of the structure of the

IRISSAK [1]

1) The mass of the continent is $3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg$

2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 624 J

3) The speed of the jogger must be 4 m/s

Explanation:

We start by finding the volume of the continent. We have:

$L = 5850 km = 5.85\cdot 10^6 m$ is the side

$t = 35 km = 3.5\cdot 10^4 m$ is the depth

So the volume is

$V=L^2 t = (5.85\cdot 10^6)^2 (3.5\cdot 10^4)=1.20\cdot 10^{18} m^3$

We also know that its density is

$d=2750 kg/m^3$

Therefore, we can find the mass by multiplying volume by density:

$m=dV=(2750)(1.20\cdot 10^{18})=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg$

The kinetic energy of the continent is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

$m=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg$ is its mass

v = 3.2 cm/year is the speed

We have to convert the speed into m/s. We have:

3.2 cm = 0.032 m

$1 year = 1(365)(24)(60)(60)=3.15\cdot 10^7 s$

So, the speed is:

$v=\frac{0.032 m}{3.15 \cdot 10^7 s}=1.02\cdot 10^{-9} m/s$

So, we can now find the kinetic energy:

$K=\frac{1}{2}(1.20\cdot 10^{21})(1.02\cdot 10^{-9})^2=624 J$

Here we have a jogger of mass

m = 78 kg

And the jogger has the same kinetic energy of the continent, so

K = 624 J

The kinetic energy of the jogger is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where v is the speed of the jogger.

Solving for v, we find the speed that the jogger must have:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(624)}{78}}=4 m/s$

In general, the time it takes from when in interstellar cloud fragment first begins collapsing until it gives birth to a main-se

erik [133]

Answer:

longer for less massive stars.

Explanation:

A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.

It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).

Some of the examples of stars are Canopus, Sun (closest to the Earth), Betelgeus, Antares, Vega etc.

Generally, the time taken for the collapse of an interstellar cloud fragment to the period (time) when a main-sequence star is given birth to, is usually longer for less massive stars.

This ultimately implies that, stars that are not so massive or big in size are transformed from interstellar cloud fragment to a main-sequence star is lesser.
