Explanation:

Single slit diffraction

Diffraction is the phenomenon of spreading out of waves as they pass through an aperture or around objects. Diffraction occurs when the size of the aperture or obstacle is of the same order of magnitude as the wavelength of the incident wave. For very small aperture sizes, the vast majority of the wave is blocked. in case of  large apertures the wave passes by or through the obstacle without any significant diffraction.

The mass of a moving object increases, but its speed stays the same. What happens to the kinetic energy of the object as a resul
Ronch [10]
We Know, K.E. = 1/2 × m × v²
From the expression, we can conclude that Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass. So, as mass will increase, Kinetic energy will also increase.

In short, Your Correct answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

At t=0, a block A of mass 8 kg and block B of mass 16 kg are both at position x=0 . Block A is at rest, and block B is moving at
love history [14]

The center of mass of the two objects is the average position of the parts of the two object system

The center of mass of block <em>A</em>, and block <em>B</em>  after displacement of block <em>B</em> is at <u>20 m from block </u><u><em>A</em></u>

<em />

Reason:

The given parameters are;

The position of block A and block B at t = 0 is x = 0

The mass of block A, m₁ = 8 kg

Mass of block B, m₂ = 16 kg

Speed of block <em>A</em> = 0 m/s

Speed of block <em>B</em>, v₂ = 10 m/s

Location of the center of mass of the two object at t = 3 s; Required

Solution;

The location of block <em>A</em>, after 3 s is x₁ = 0 (block A is at rest)

The location of block <em>B</em>, = v₂ × t

The location of block <em>B</em>, after 3 s is x₂ = 10 m/s × 3 s = 30 m

The center of mass of two masses are given as follows;

x_{cm} = \dfrac{m_1 \cdot x_1 +m_2\cdot x_2}{m_1 + m_2}

x_{cm} = \dfrac{8  \times0 + 16 \times  30}{8 + 16} = 20

The center of mass of the two objects is at at the position x = <u>20 m</u> (from block <em>A</em>)

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

z1/z2

Explanation:

we have no quantum effects therefore we can make use of Maxwell Boltzmann distribution in the description of this system.

using the boltzman distribution the probability of finding a particle in energy state

P_{ei}  = \frac{gie^{-ei/kol} }{z}

we have

gi to be degeneration of the ith state

ei to be energy of ith state

z=e^{-ei/kbt} summation

P_{ope} = \frac{e^{-ei/kBt} }{z} = \frac{Z_{1} }{Z}

We have R to be equal to

\frac{P_{ope} }{P_{Close} } = \frac{Z1}{Z2}
