Answer:
1.696 nm
Explanation:
For a diffraction grating, dsinθ = mλ where d = number of lines per metre of grating = 5510 lines per cm = 551000 lines per metre and λ = wavelength of light = 467 nm = 467 × 10⁻⁹ m. For a principal maximum, m = 1. So,
dsinθ = mλ = (1)λ = λ
dsinθ = λ
sinθ = λ/d.
Also tanθ = w/D where w = distance of center of screen to principal maximum and D = distance of grating to screen = 1.03 m
From trig ratios 1 + cot²θ = cosec²θ
1 + (1/tan²θ) = 1/(sin²θ)
substituting the values of sinθ and tanθ we have
1 + (D/w)² = (d/λ)²
(D/w)² = (d/λ)² - 1
(w/D)² = 1/[(d/λ)² - 1]
(w/D) = 1/√[(d/λ)² - 1]
w = D/√[(d/λ)² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(551000/467 × 10⁻⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(1179.87 × 10⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/1179.87 × 10⁹ = 0.000848 × 10⁻⁹ = 0.848 × 10⁻¹² m = 0.848 nm.
w is also the distance from the center to the other principal maximum on the other side.
So for both principal maxima to be on the screen, its minimum width must be 2w = 2 × 0.848 nm = 1.696 nm
So, the minimum width of the screen must be 1.696 nm
I think the answer is c but I’m not sure
Answer:
Slope in Mathematics means the inclination of a line
Answer:
Points downward, and its magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2
Explanation:
The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform horizontal motion, with constant velocity and zero acceleration. In fact, there are no forces acting on the projectile along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration along this direction is zero.
- A vertical motion, with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground (downward), due to the presence of gravity wich "pulls" the projectile downward.
The total acceleration of the projectile is given by the resultant of the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration. But we said that the horizontal component is zero, therefore the total acceleration corresponds just to its vertical component, therefore it is a vector with magnitude 9.8 m/s^2 which points downward.
