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

Tires of a Bigfoot truck has a diameter of 2.2 m. If it rotates 60 revolutions find distance travel on the road.
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

s = 414.7 m\\

Explanation:

The relationship between the linear distance covered by an object and its angular displacement is given by the following formula:

s = rθ

where,

s = distance traveled on road = ?

r  radius of tires = diameter/2 = 2.2 m/2 = 1.1 m

θ = angular displacement = (60 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 377 rad

Therefore,

s = (1.1 m)(377 rad)\\s = 414.7 m

8. Il An 8.00 kg package in a mail-sorting room slides 2.00 m down a
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Normal force = m g cos 53 = 8 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * cos 53 = 47.1823 N

  no work is done by this force

Force friction = coeff friction * force normal = .4 * 47.1823 = 7.55 N

   work of friction = 7.55 * 2 m = 15.1 j

Force Downplane = mg sin 53 = 62.61  N

    work = 62.61 * 2 = 125.22 j

Net Force downplane =   force downplane - force friction = 55.06 N

net Work = force * distance = 55.06 N * 2 M = 110.12 j

As SCUBA divers go deeper underwater, the pressure from the weight of all the water above them increases tremendously which comp
slavikrds [6]

Answer: A.

As a diver rises, the pressure on their body decreases which allows the volume of the gas to decrease.

Explanation:

The problem is that a diver, experiences an increased pressure of water compresses nitrogen and more of it dissolves into the body. Just as there is a natural nitrogen saturation point at the surface, there are saturation points under water. Those depend on the depth, the type of body tissue involved, and also how long a diver is exposed to the extra pressure. The deeper a diver go, the more nitrogen the body absorbs.

The problem is getting rid of the nitrogen once you ascend again. As the pressure diminishes, nitrogen starts dissolving out of the tissues of the diver's body, a process called "off-gassing." That results in tiny nitrogen bubbles that then get carried to the lungs and breathed out. However, if there is too much nitrogen and/or it is released too quickly, small bubbles can combine to form larger bubbles, and those can do damage to the body, anything from minor discomforts all the way to major problems and even death.

A dog is 10 m from a cat, whose speeds are 6 and 5 m / s, respectively. What time does the dog require to catch the cat?
scoray [572]

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

because the cat is moving one m/s slower than the dog, the dog has a relative speed of 1 m/s. 10 meters would take 10 seconds for the dog to cover
