Answer:

Horizontal distance, R = vo2 sin(2x45)/g

v = 285 km/h = 79.17 m/s

R = 79.172 x 1/1.6

R = 3917 m

R = 3.9 km

(a) How many fringes appear between the first diffraction-envelope minima to either side of the central maximum in a double-slit
Ainat [17]

Answer:

a

The number of fringe is  z  = 3 fringes

b

The  ratio is I = 0.2545I_o

Explanation:

a

 From the question we are told that

        The wavelength is  \lambda = 600 nm

        The distance between the slit is  d = 0.117mm = 0.117 *10^{-3} m

        The width of the slit is  a = 35.7 \mu m = 35.7 *10^{-6}m

let  z be the number of fringes that appear between the first diffraction-envelope minima to either side of the central maximum in a double-slit pattern is  and this mathematically represented as

             z = \frac{d}{a}

Substituting values

             z = \frac{0.117*10^{-3}}{35.7 *10^{-6}}  

             z  = 3 fringes

b

   From the question  we are told that the order  of the bright fringe is  n = 3

   Generally the intensity of  a pattern  is mathematically represented as

                 I = I_o cos^2 [\frac{\pi d sin \theta}{\lambda} ][\frac{sin (\pi a sin \frac{\theta}{\lambda } )}{\pi a sin \frac{\theta}{\lambda} } ]

Where I_o is the intensity  of the  central fringe

 And  Generally  sin \theta = \frac{n \lambda }{d}

               I = I_o co^2 [ \frac{\pi (\frac{n \lambda}{d} )}{\lambda} ] [\frac{\frac{sin (\pi a (\frac{n \lambda}{d} ))}{\lambda} }{\frac{\pi a (\frac{n \lambda}{d} )}{\lambda} } ]

               I = I_o cos^2 (n \pi)[\frac{\frac{sin(\pi a (\frac{n \lambda}{d} ))}{\lambda} )}{ \frac{ \pi a (\frac{n \lambda }{d} )}{\lambda} } ]

               I = I_o cos^2 (3 \pi) [\frac{sin (\frac{3 \pi }{6} )}{\frac{3 \pi}{6} } ]

                I = I_o (1)(0.2545)

                  I = 0.2545I_o

Which of the following choices is a single-replacement reaction? A. 2K + Br2 2KBr B. 2H2 + O2 2H2O C. Mg + FeO Fe + MgO D. C + 2
Otrada [13]
A single replacement reaction occurs when two different cations switch places to combine with the same anion. One element forms a compound while another element is released from the compound. In a single replacement reaction, or single displacement reaction, a single<span> uncombined element replaces another in a compound.

So you're answer is probably c.

A certain atom has only three energy levels. From lowest to highest energy, these levels are denoted n = 1, n = 2, and n = 3. Wh
shtirl [24]

Answer:

D. 160 nm

Explanation:

The energy released from n = 3 to n = 1 must be equal to the sum of energies released from n = 3 to n = 2 and from n = 2 to n = 1. Therefore,

Energy of Photon from 3 to 1 = Energy of Photon from 3 to 2 + Energy of Photon from 2 to 1

\frac{hc}{\lambda} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{1}} + \frac{hc}{\lambda_{2}}\\\\\frac{1}{\lambda} = \frac{1}{\lambda_{1}} + \frac{1}{\lambda_{2}}

where,

λ = wavelength of photon released from 3 to 1 = ?

λ₁ = wavelength of photon released from 3 to 2 = 800 nm

λ₂ = wavelength of photon released from 2 to 1 = 200 nm

Therefore,

\frac{1}{\lambda} = \frac{1}{800\ nm} + \frac{1}{200\ nm}\\\\\frac{1}{\lambda} = 0.00625 nm^{-1}\\\\\lambda = \frac{1}{0.00625 nm^{-1}}\\\\\lambda = 160 nm

Therefore, the correct option is:

<u>D. 160 nm</u>

True or False: The height from which cliff divers jump affects the velocity at which they will fall. Velocity is speed in a cert
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

the diver's speed is independent of the launch height.

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Newton's second law

              fr - W = m a

the friction force has the general form

              fr = b v

Let's analyze this equation to find out what happens with the speed of the distant club.

When jumping, the initial speed is zero, so the friction force is zero and has an acceleration equal to the acceleration of gravity, as the speed increases the friction force increases decreasing the acceleration until it becomes zero, when it arrives at this value the velocity it has is called terminal velocity and this velocity remains fixed in relation to the trajectory.

             fr = W

             v = cte

The distance or time in which this equilibrium is reached is relatively fast, so the diver's speed is independent of the launch height.
