Plane microwaves are incident on a thin metal sheet that has a long, narrow slit of width 4.8 cm in it. The microwave radiation

strikes the sheet at normal incidence. The first diffraction minimum is observed at θ = 42°. What is the wavelength of the microwaves?

Answer:

\lambda = 3.21 \ cm

Explanation:

given,                                                                            

width of narrow slit = 4.8 cm                                

minimum angle of diffraction = θ = 42°                

wavelength of the microwave = ?                            

condition for the diffraction for single slit diffraction

      d sin \theta = m \lambda              

for the first minima m = 1                          

      d sin \theta = \lambda                  

wavelength of microwave radiation is equal to

      \lambda = d sin \theta                

      \lambda = 4.8\times sin 42^0  

      \lambda = 3.21 \ cm                

the wavelength of microwaves is equal to \lambda = 3.21 \ cm

Here is the complete question:

https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/magnetic-field-372-t-achieved-mit-francis-bitter-national-magnetic-laboratory-find-current-q900632

a) Current for long straight wire  =3.7\ MA

b) Current at the center of the circular coil =2.48\times 10^{5}\ A

c) Current near the center of a solenoid 236.8\ A

Explanation:

⇒ Magnetic Field due to long straight wire is given by (B),where B=\frac{\mu\times I}{2\pi(r) },so\ I=\frac{B\ 2\pi(r)}{\mu}

\mu=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ \frac{henry}{m}

Plugging the values,

Conversion 1\times 10^6 A = 1\ MA,and 2cm=\frac{2}{100}=0.02\ m

I=\frac{37.2\times \ 2\pi(0.02)}{4\ \pi \times (10^{-7})}=3.7\ MA

⇒Magnetic Field at the center due to circular coil (at center) is given by,B=\frac{\mu\times I (N)}{2(a)}

So I= \frac{2B(a)}{\mu\ N} = \frac{2\times 37.2\times 0.42}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 100}=2.48\time 10{^5}\ A

⇒Magnetic field due to the long solenoid,B=\mu\ nI=\mu (\frac{N}{l})I

Then I=\frac{B}{\mu(\frac{N}{L})} \approx 236.8\A  

So the value of current are  3.7 MA,2.48\times 10^{5} A and 236.8\ A respectively.
