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>

Describes newton's 3 laws in collision
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Newton's third law of motion is naturally applied to collisions between two objects. In a collision between two objects, both objects experience forces that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Such forces often cause one object to speed up (gain momentum) and the other object to slow down (lose momentum).

Which of the following is a difference between sound and light?
inn [45]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Humans can detect light and sound, also light and sound travel in waves. Light is faster than sound but sound waves cannot travel through space because there is no medium for the sound waves to travel through.

he pressure inside a bottle of Champagne is 4.5 atm higher than the air pressure outside. The neck of the bottle has an inner ra
Effectus [21]

Answer:

F = 141.3 N

Explanation:

Pressure inside the Champagne bottle = 4.5 atm

         1 atm = 10⁵ Pa

        4.5 atm = 4.5 x 10⁵ Pa

inner radius of the bottle = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Area of the bottle = π r²

                             = π x 0.01²

                             = 3.14 x 10⁻⁴ m²

Force acting on the cork due to excess pressure

  F = P A

  F =  4.5 x 10⁵  x 3.14 x 10⁻⁴

  F = 141.3 N

The frictional force on the cork due to the neck bottle will also be equal to F = 141.3 N
