Consider a double slit experiment in the air. The wavelength of light is 500nm light, the screen is 1m away and two adjacent bri

ght peaks are 1cm apart. If the same experiment is now done in water, what will be the spacing between the two adjacent bright peaks?

Answer: 0.75\ cm

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of light \lambda=500\ nm

Screen is D=1\ m away

Distance between two adjacent bright fringe is \Delta y=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

When same experiment done in water, wavelength reduce to \dfrac{\lambda }{\mu}

So, the distance between the two adjacent bright fringe is \Delta y'=\dfrac{\lambda D}{\mu d}

Keeping other factor same, distance becomes

\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{\frac{4}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{4}\quad \text{Refractive index of water is }\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow 0.75\ cm

On a frictionless surface how much force is necessary to accelerate a 0.49 kg object to the left at 4.8 m/s2?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

<h2>2.35 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

force = 0.49 × 4.8 = 2.352

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.35 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

A tennis player standing 12.6m from the net hits the ball at 3.00 degrees above the horizontal. To clear the net, the ball must
mezya [45]
We actually don't need to know how far he/she is standing from the net, as we know that the ball reaches its maximum height (vertex) at the net. At the vertex, it's vertical velocity is 0, since it has stopped moving up and is about to come back down, and its displacement is 0.33m. So we use v² = u² + 2as (neat trick I discovered just then for typing the squared sign: hold down alt and type 0178 on ur numpad wtih numlock on!!!) ANYWAY....... We apply v² = u² + 2as in the y direction only. Ignore x direction. 
IN Y DIRECTION: v² = u² + 2as 0 = u² - 2gh u = √(2gh) (Sub in values at the very end) 
So that will be the velocity in the y direction only. But we're given the angle at which the ball is hit (3° to the horizontal). So to find the velocity (sum of the velocity in x and y direction on impact) we can use: sin 3° = opposite/hypotenuse = (velocity in y direction only) / (velocity) So rearranging, velocity = (velocity in y direction only) / sin 3° = √(2gh)/sin 3° = (√(2 x 9.8 x 0.33)) / sin 3° = 49 m/s at 3° to the horizontal (2 sig figs)

Answer: gases

Explanation: because gases move around freely and they would be the only one to make sense because solid are compacted together and liquid are not so fast at moving but gases are wild
