Answer:

Explanation:

Width of central diffraction peak is given by the following expression

Width of central diffraction peak= 2 λ D/ d₁

where d₁ is width of slit and D is screen distance and λ is wave length.

Width of other fringes become half , that is each of  secondary diffraction fringe is equal to

λ D/ d₁

Width of central interference  peak is given by the following expression

Width of  each of  bright fringe =  λ D/ d₂

where d₂ is width of slit and D is screen distance and λ is wave length.

Now given that the central diffraction peak contains 13 interference fringes

so ( 2 λ D/ d₁)  /  λ  D/ d₂ = 13

then (  λ D/ d₁)  /  λ  D/ d₂ = 13 / 2

= 6.5

no of fringes  contained within each secondary diffraction peak = 6.5

the weatherman reports the storm waves are about 2 meters high and 35 meters apart. What properties of waves is the reporter des
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Amplitude and wavelength

Explanation:

- The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the wave, measured with respect to the equilibrium position (so, for a water wave it is the maximum height of the wave relative to the equilibrium position)

- The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive crests (or throughs) of a wave. So, for a water wave, it is the distance between two consecutive waves

Therefore, in the example in the problem we have:

- 2 meters corresponds to the amplitude

- 35 meters corresponds to the wavelength

The diagram shows a ball resting at the top of a hill.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

Explanation:

Let be X the point where a ball rests at the top of a hill. By applying the Principle of Energy Conservation, the total energy in the physical system remains constant and gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill is equal to the sum of kinetic energy, a lower gravitational energy and dissipated work due to nonconservative forces (friction, dragging).

U_{grav, X} = U_{grav, Y} + K_{Y} + \Delta W_{X \rightarrow Y} = U_{grav,Z}+\Delta W_{X \rightarrow Z}

Conclusions are showed as follows:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

b) The kinetic energy is the lowest at X and Z.

c) Total energy remains constant as the ball moves from X to Y.

Hence, the correct answer is A.

MatroZZZ [7]
Initial velocity, u = 4 m/s

acceleration due to gusts of wind = 3 m/s^2

time, t = 1 min = 60 s

Let distance travelled = S

From equation of motion,

S = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}  \\  \\ S = 4 \times 60 +   \frac{1}{2}  \times 3 \times  {60}^{2}  \\  \\ S = 240 + 5400 \\  \\ S = 5640 \: m

Thus, the boat would have traveled 5640m after gusts picked up.
