In a single-slit diffraction experiment, a coherent light source illuminates a slit in a barrier, and the resulting pattern is p

rojected on a screen that is separated from the barrier by a distance which is very large as compared to the slit width and the wavelength of the light source. A student makes sketches of the resulting patterns. While the center of each bright or dark band is accurately represented, the shading is qualitative, and the choice of color may not reflect the wavelength of the light source. The distance from the barrier to the screen is 2.3 m, and the slit has width 7.3 μm.
A) What is the ratio of the slit width to the wavelength of the incident light?
B) What is the wavelength of the incident light, in nanometers?
C) If the screen is very wide, how many dark bands appear to one side of the central maximum?

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656 nm (red) and 486 nm (blue). The light enters a flint-g
mezya [45]

Answer:

The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 656 nm

Wavelength of blue = 486 nm

Angle = 37°

Suppose we need to find the angle between the red and blue light as it leaves the prism

n_{r}=1.572

n_{b}=1.587

We need to calculate the angle for red wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{r}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

1.572\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{r}

\theta_{r}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.572\sin37}{1})

\theta_{r}=71.0^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle for blue wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{b}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{b}

Put the value into the formula

1.587\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{b}

\theta_{b}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.587\sin37}{1})

\theta_{b}=72.7^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle between the red and blue light

Using formula of angle

\Delta \theta=\theta_{b}-\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta \theta=72.7-71.0

\Delta \theta=1.7^{\circ}

Hence, The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

A food packet is dropped from a helicopter during a flood-relief operation from a height of 750 meters. Assuming no drag (air fr
Leviafan [203]

1. Velocity at which the packet reaches the ground: 121.2 m/s

The motion of the packet is a uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration a=g=9.8 m/s^2 directed downward, initial vertical position d=750 m, and initial vertical velocity v_0 = 0. We can use the following SUVAT equation to find the final velocity of the packet after travelling for d=750 m:

v_f^2 -v_i^2 =2ad

substituting, we find

v_f^2 = 2ad\\v_f = \sqrt{2ad}=\sqrt{2(9.8 m/s^2)(750 m)}=121.2 m/s

2. height at which the packet has half this velocity: 562.6 m

We need to find the heigth at which the packet has a velocity of

v_f=\frac{121.2 m/s}{2}=60.6 m/s

In order to do that, we use again the same SUVAT equation substituting v_f with this value, so that we find the new distance d that the packet travelled from the helicopter to reach this velocity:

v_f^2-v_i^2=2ad\\d=\frac{v_f^2}{2a}=\frac{(60.6 m/s)^2}{2(9.8 m/s^2)}=187.4 m

Which means that the heigth of the packet was

h=750 m-187.4 m=562.6 m

Imagine an infinite earth with a hole dripped through it. You fall in and accelerate at g~10m/s/s. How long until you reach the
Soloha48 [4]

An object with non-zero mass (even negligible mass is non-zero) will never reach the speed of light. Due to relativistic effects, each "unit" of acceleration becomes less effective at increasing your velocity (relative to some other object, of course) as your relative velocity approaches the speed of light.

And even if there was a way, If you would accelerate to the 99,99% of the speed light in just 1 second, you would experience a G-force of aprox. 30,600,000 g's which is enough to kill you in a few seconds

Why is it important to select a coordinate system when studying motion?
kvv77 [185]

Motion is detected when an object changes its position with respect to a reference point. Coordinate system is basically used to represent motion. A coordinate system uses numbers or coordinates which represent position of the reference points on a two-dimensional or three-dimensional space. The trajectory of a point or line can be studied on a coordinate system which describes various aspects of motion like velocity, acceleration, distance, displacement etc. Coordinate system is important because it helps to choose a starting point and the direction (which will be positive).
