Answer:

14.9 mm

Explanation:

We know dsinθ = mλ where d = separating of slit, m = order of maximum = 3 and λ = wavelength = 510nm = 510 × 10⁻⁹ m

Also tanθ = L/D where L = distance of m order fringe from central bright spot = 17 mm = 0.017 m and D = distance of screen from slit = 1.6 m

So, sinθ = mλ/d

Since θ is small, sinθ ≅ tanθ

So,

mλ/d = L/D

d = mλD/L

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

d = 3 × 510 × 10⁻⁹ m × 1.6 m/0.017 m

d = 2448 × 10⁻⁹ m²/0.017 m

d = 144000 × 10⁻⁹ m

d = 1.44 × 10⁻⁴ m

d = 0.144 × 10⁻³ m

d = 0.144 mm

Now, for the second-order maximum, m' of the 670 nm wavelength of light,

m'λ'/d = L'/D where m' = order of maximum = 2, λ' = wavelength of light = 670 nm = 670 × 10⁻⁹ m, d = slit separation = 0.144 mm = 0.144 × 10⁻³ m, L' = distance of second order maximum from central bright spot and D = distance of screen from slit = 1.6m

So, L' = m'λ'D/d

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

L' = 2 × 670 × 10⁻⁹ m × 1.6 m/0.144 × 10⁻³ m

L' = 2144  × 10⁻⁹ m²/0.144 × 10⁻³ m

L' = 14888.89 × 10⁻⁶ m

L' = 0.01488 m

L' ≅ 0.0149 m

L' = 14.9 mm

The rms (root-mean-square) speed of a diatomic hydrogen molecule at 50∘C is 2000 m/s. Note that 1.0 mol of diatomic hydrogen at
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

A) d. (1/4)(2000m/s) = 500 m/s

B) c. 4000 J

C) f. None of the above (2149.24 m/s)

Explanation:

A)

The translational kinetic energy of a gas molecule is given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 1^-23 J/K

T = Absolute Temperature

but,

K.E = (1/2) mv²

where,

v = root mean square velocity

m = mass of one mole of a gas

Comparing both equations:

(3/2)KT = (1/2) mv²

v = √(3KT)/m  _____ eqn (1)

<u>FOR HYDROGEN:</u>

v = √(3KT)/m = 2000 m/s  _____ eqn (2)

<u>FOR OXYGEN:</u>

velocity of oxygen = √(3KT)/(mass of oxygen)  

Here,

mass of 1 mole of oxygen = 16 m

velocity of oxygen = √(3KT)/(16 m)

velocity of oxygen = (1/4) √(3KT)/m

using eqn (2)

<u>velocity of oxygen = (1/4)(2000 m/s) = 500 m/s</u>

B)

K.E = (3/2)KT

Since, the temperature is constant for both gases and K is also a constant. Therefore, the K.E of both the gases will remain same.

K.E of Oxygen = K.E of Hydrogen

<u>K.E of Oxygen = 4000 J</u>

C)

using eqn (2)

At, T = 50°C = 323 k

v = √(3KT)/m = 2000 m/s

m = 3(1.38^-23 J/k)(323 k)/(2000 m/s)²

m = 3.343 x 10^-27 kg

So, now for this value of m and T = 100°C = 373 k

v = √(3)(1.38^-23 J/k)(373 k)/(3.343 x 10^-27 kg)

<u>v = 2149.24 m/s</u>

<u></u>

Water enters a typical garden hose of diameter 0.016 m with a velocity of 3 m/s. Calculate the exit velocity of water from the g
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

v₂ = 306.12 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the volume flow rate of the water or any in-compressible liquid remains constant throughout motion. Therefore, from continuity equation, we know that:

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂

where,

A₁ = Area of entrance pipe = πd₁²/4 = π(0.016 m)²/4 = 0.0002 m²

v₁ = entrance velocity = 3 m/s

A₂ = Area of nozzle = πd₂²/4 = π(0.005 m)²/4 = 0.0000196 m²

v₂ = exit velocity = ?

Therefore,

(0.0002 m²)(3 m/s) = (0.0000196 m²)v₂

v₂ = (0.006 m³/s)/(0.0000196 m²)

<u>v₂ = 306.12 m/s</u>
