Answer:
0.0667 m
Explanation:
λ = wavelength of light = 400 nm = 400 x 10⁻⁹ m
D = screen distance = 2.5 m
d = slit width = 15 x 10⁻⁶ m
n = order = 1
θ = angle = ?
Using the equation
d Sinθ = n λ
(15 x 10⁻⁶) Sinθ = (1) (400 x 10⁻⁹)
Sinθ = 26.67 x 10⁻³
y = position of first minimum
Using the equation for small angles
tanθ = Sinθ = y/D
26.67 x 10⁻³ = y/2.5
y = 0.0667 m

Answer:
Newton's Third Law of Motion
Explanation:
Newton's Third Law of Motion which states that, for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.
This ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects.
In this scenario, a ball bounced by a basketball player on the floor bounces back up at her.
According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, the statement above simply means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects i.e the ball and floor. The size of the force on the ball equals the size of the force on the floor. These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion.
Hence, the ball bounced by the basketball player on the floor would bounce back in equal magnitude.
