You perform a double‑slit experiment in order to measure the wavelength of the new laser that you received for your birthday. Yo

u set your slit spacing at 1.09 mm and place your screen 8.61 m from the slits. Then, you illuminate the slits with your new toy and find on the screen that the tenth bright fringe is 4.53 cm away from the central bright fringe (counted as the zeroth bright fringe). What is your laser's wavelength ???? expressed in nanometers?

Answer:

λ = 5.734 x 10⁻⁷ m = 573.4 nm

Explanation:

The formula of the Young's Double Slit experiment is given as follows:

\Delta x = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\\lambda = \frac{\Delta x d}{L}

where,

λ = wavelength = ?

L = distance between screen and slits = 8.61 m

d = slit spacing = 1.09 mm = 0.00109 m

Δx = distance between consecutive bright fringes = \frac{4.53\ cm}{10} = 0.00453 m

Therefore,

\lambda = \frac{(0.00453\ m)(0.00109\ m)}{8.61\ m}

<u>λ = 5.734 x 10⁻⁷ m = 573.4 nm</u>

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 31.0 m/s and lands 156.3 m from the base of a ramp how high is th
BartSMP [9]

<u>Answer:</u>

The height of ramp = 124.694 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Using second equation of motion,

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

From the question,

u = 31 m/s; s = 156.3 m, a=0

substituting values

156.3 = 31\times t + 0

t = \frac{156.3}{31 }

= 5.042 s

Similary, for the case of landing

t = 5.042 s; initial velocity, u =0

acceleration = acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting in h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times (5.042)^2

h = 124.694 m

So height of ramp = 124.694 m

You and your friend throw balloons filled with water from the roof of a several story apartment house. You simply drop a balloon
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

74.529 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

For first ball

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=4.9t^2\ m

For second ball

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=50.96\times (t-2.6)+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (t-2.6)^2\\\Rightarrow s=25.48t-99.372+4.9t^2

As the displacement is equal

25.48t-99.372+4.9t^2=4.9t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{99.372}{25.48}\\\Rightarrow t=3.9\ s

s=4.9\times 3.9^2=74.529\ m

So, height of the building is 74.529 m
