Answer:

<em>The sea bed is 1125 m deep.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Speed</u>

It's the rate of change of the distance (d) traveled by an object over time (t).

The speed can be calculated by the formula:

\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}

It's known the speed of sound in water is v=1500 m/s. A sound wave is sent to the sea bed and bounces back to the ship 1.5 seconds later.

That is the time the wave takes to travel twice the distance from the ship to the sea bed, thus the required distance uses half of that time or t=1.5/2 = 0.75 seconds.

Solving the equation for d:

d = v.t

d = 1500 m/s * 0.75 s

d = 1125 m

The sea bed is 1125 m deep.

Red light of wavelength 633 nm from a helium-neon laser passes through a slit 0.360 mm wide. The diffraction pattern is observed
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) 0.0130 m

b') w' = =6.46*10^{-3] m

Explanation:

given data:

\lambda of light = 633 nm

width of siit a =0.360 mm

distance from screen = 3.75 m

a) the first minima is located at

sin\theta = \frac{\lambda}{a}

              == \frac{633 *10^{-9}}{.360*10^{-3}}

           \theta = 0.100

y_1 = dtan\theta_1 = 3.75*tan(0.100) = 6.54 *10^{-3} m

with of central fringe  = 2y_1 = 2*6.54 *10^{-3} = 0.0130 m

b)

width of the first bright fringe on either side of the central one = w' = y_2 -y_1

calculation for y_2

sin\theta = 2\frac{\lambda}{a}

              = = 2*\frac{633 *10^{-9}}{.360*10^{-3}}

             \theta  = 2*0.100 = 0.200

y_2 = dtan\theta_1 = 3.75*tan(0.200) =0.0130 m

w' = 0.0130  -6.54 *10^{-3}

w' = =6.46*10^{-3] m
