A diffraction grating has 500 slits/mm. What is the longest wavelength of light for which there will be a third-order maximum?

Physics

Alexxandr [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The longest wavelength of light  is 666.7 nm

Explanation:

The general form of the grating equation is

mλ = d(sinθi + sinθr)

where;

m is third-order maximum = 3

λ is the wavelength,

d is the slit spacing (m/slit)

θi  is the incident angle

θr is the diffracted angle

Note: at longest wavelength, sinθi + sinθr = 1

λ = d/m

d = 1/500 slits/mm

λ = 1 mm/(500 *3) = 1mm/1500 = 666.7 X 10⁻⁶ mm = 666.7 nm

Therefore, the longest wavelength of light  is 666.7 nm

Answer: 96N

Explanation:

To calculate the velocity of the impact On the persons head, we have

h = gt²/2

14 = 9.81t²/2

t² = 28/9.8

t² = 2.86

t = 1.69s

V = u + at

V = 0 + 9.81*1.69

V = 16.58m/s

a(average) = (v1² + v2²) /2Δy

a(average) = 16.58² + 0)/2 * 0.005

a(average) = 274.8964/0.01

a(average) = 27489.64m/s²

Using newton's second law of motion,

F(average) = m * a(average)

F(average) = 0.0035 * 27489.64

F(average) = 96.21N

Therefore the force needed by the acorn to do much damage starts from 96N

What has a larger capacitance, an aluminum sphere with a 10 cm diameter or one with a 100 cm diameter? Question 16 options: 10 c
creativ13 [48]

\boxed{\sf C=\dfrac{Q}{V}}

But

\boxed{\sf \Delta V_{R_2\to R_1}={\displaystyle{\int}^{R_1}_{R_2}}dV=-{\displaystyle{\int}^{R_1}_{R_2}}\dfrac{kQ}{r^2}dR}

  • Hence higher the radius lower the voltage
  • Lower the voltage higher the capacitance .

Mekhanik [1.2K]

were solving for v velocity of the ball after it has hit the bottle. a. momentum ->p=mv->ball + bottle momentum during hit = ball + bottle momentum after hit-> ball (.5*21)+ bottle (.2*0) (it's 0 because the the bottle is standing still) = ball after hit (.5*v)+bottle after hit (.2*30) -> 10.5+0=.5v+6 ->4.5=.5v->v=9m/s

b. if bottle was heavier the ball would be slower so final velocity would decrease
