Answer:

θ = 22.2

Explanation:

This is a diffraction exercise

        a sin θ = m λ

The extension of the third zero is requested (m = 3)

They indicate the wavelength  λ = 630 nm = 630 10⁻⁹ m and the width of the slit  a = 5 10⁻⁶ m

         sin  θ = m λ / a

         sin  θ = 3 630 10⁻⁹ / 5 10⁻⁶

         sin  θ = 3.78 10⁻¹ = 0.378

          θ = sin⁻¹  0.378

         

to better see the result let's find the angle in radians

          θ = 0.3876 rad

let's reduce to degrees

         θ = 0.3876 rad (180º /π rad)

         θ = 22.2º

An object in a fluid experiences a buoyant force from the fluid. If the object is completely immersed, on which does the magnitu
loris [4]

Answer:

Weight of the fluid that the object displaces.

Explanation:

When the fluid is completely immersed in a fluid, it experiences pressure from all the direction. While the object is immersed in the fluid a force acts on it in the opposite direction, i.e., upwards. This force is termed as buoyant force.

Also, as per the Archimedes' Principle, the force experience by the object is the same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced by the object.

Thus on complete immersion of the object in the fluid, it experiences the force same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced

How do I do this physics problem about potential energy and kinetic energy?
larisa86 [58]

Ok i apologise for the messy working but I'll try and explain my attempt at logic

Also note i ignore any air resistance for this.

First i wrote the two equations I'd most likely need for this situation, the kinetic energy equation and the potential energy equation.

Because the energy right at the top of the swing motion is equal to the energy right in the "bottom" of the swing's motion (due to conservation of energy), i made the kinetic energy equal to the potential energy as indicated by Ek = Ep.

I also noted the "initial" and "final" height of the swing with hi and hf respectively.

So initially looking at this i thought, what the heck, there's no mass. Then i figured that using the conservation of energy law i could take the mass value from the Ek equation and use it in the Ep equation. So what i did was take the Ek equation and rearranged it for m as you can hopefully see. Then i substituted the rearranged Ek equation into the Ep equation.

So then the equation reads something like Ep = (rearranged Ek equation for m) × g (which is -9.81) × change in height (hf - hi).

Then i simplify the equation a little. When i multiply both sides by v^2 i can clearly see that there is one E on each side (at that stage i don't need to clarify which type of energy it is because Ek = Ep so they're just the same anyway). So i just canceled them out and square rooted both sides.

The answer i got was that the max velocity would be 4.85m/s 3sf, assuming no losses (eg energy lost to friction).

I do hope I'm right and i suppose it's better than a blank piece of paper good luck my dude xx

A rectangular loop of wire with width w = 5 cm, length L = 10cm, mass m = 40 g, and resistance R = 20 mΩ has an initial velocity
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The loop penetrate 4 cm into the magnetic field.

Explanation:

Given that,

Width w= 5 cm

Length L= 10 cm

mass m = 40 g

Resistance R = 20 mΩ

Initial velocity = 1 m/s

Magnetic field = 2 T

We need to calculate the induced emf

Using formula of emf

\epsilon=v_{0}Bw

Put the value into the formula

\epsilon =1\times2\times5\times10^{-2}

\epsilon =10\times10^{-2}\ volt

We need to calculate the current

Using Lenz's formula

i=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}

i=\dfrac{10\times10^{-2}}{20\times10^{-3}}

i=5\ A

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of force

F=i(\vec{w}\times\vec{B})

F=iwB

Put the value into the formula

F=5\times5\times10^{-2}\times2

F=0.5\ N

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

Put the value in to the formula

a=\dfrac{0.5}{40\times10^{-3}}

a=12.5\ m/s^2

We need to calculate the distance

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}

s=\dfrac{0-1^2}{2\times(-12.5)}

s=0.04\ m

s=4\ cm

Hence, The loop penetrate 4 cm into the magnetic field.
