Answer:

The speed of light changes as it moves between media. This causes refraction. Angles of refraction can be calculated using known speeds or wavelengths. Beyond the critical angle, light is reflected.

Light of wavelength 630 nm is incident on a long, narrow slit. Determine the angular deflection of the first diffraction minimum
asambeis [7]

Answer:

a) 1.8°

b) 0.18°

c) 0.018°

Explanation:

Wavelength (λ) = 630nm = 630 *10^-9m

The equation that describes the angular deflection of a dark band is

Wsin(βm) = mλ

w = width of the single slit

λ = wavelength of the light

βm = angular deflection of the mth dark band.

a) In order to get the angular deflection of the first dark band for a slit with 0.02mm width, substitute w = 0.02mm = 0.02*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

0.02*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 0.02*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 0.0315

β1 = Sin^-1(0.0315)

= 1.8°

b) substitute w = 0.2mm = 0.2*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

0.2*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 0.2*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 0.00315

β1 = Sin^-1(0.00315)

= 0.18°

c) substitute w = 2mm = 2*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

2*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 2*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 3.15*10^-4

β1 = Sin^-1(3.15*10^-4)

= 0.018°

Calculate the temperature of the air mass when it has risen to a level at which atmospheric pressure is only 8.00×104 Pa . Assum
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

T_{2}=278.80 K

Explanation:

Let's use the equation that relate the temperatures and volumes of an adiabatic process in a ideal gas.

(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}.

Now, let's use the ideal gas equation to the initial and the final state:

\frac{p_{1} V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{p_{2} V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Let's recall that the term nR is a constant. That is why we can match these equations.  

We can find a relation between the volumes of the initial and the final state.

\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}=\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}}

Combining this equation with the first equation we have:

(\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}

(\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}^{\gamma}}{T_{1}^{\gamma}}

Now, we just need to solve this equation for T₂.

T_{1}\cdot (\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma}} = T_{2}

Let's assume the initial temperature and pressure as 25 °C = 298 K and 1 atm = 1.01 * 10⁵ Pa, in a normal conditions.

Here,

p_{2}=8.00\cdot 10^{4} Pa \\p_{1}=1.01\cdot 10^{5} Pa\\ T_{1}=298 K\\ \gamma=1.40

Finally, T2 will be:

T_{2}=278.80 K
