Answer:
λ = 864 nm
Explanation:
To find the wavelength of the light you use the following formula, which determines the position of the m-th fringe in an interference pattern:
(1)
ym: position of a bright fringe
D: distance from the slits to the screen = 3,7 m
d: distance between slits = 0,2mm = 0,2 *10^-3 m
m: order of the fringe
λ: wavelength of the light
You have the distance from the central peak to the third fringe (0,048m). Then, you can use the equation (1) with m=3 and solve for the wavelength:
henc, the wavelength of the light is 864nm
The results of the experiments should be similar.
Answer: 14 m/s
Explanation:
The speed of a sound wave is given by the following equation:
Where:
is the wavelength of the sound wave
Hence:
Answer:
i₃ > i₁ > i₂
Explanation:
For this exercise we use the resistance ratio
R = ρ
where ρ is the resistivity of the wire, in this case it is the same for all three cases, l the length and A the area of the wire.
We have three cases
a) length l = L
area A = A
b) length l = 2L
area A = A
c) length l = L
area A = 2A
we calculate the resistance for each case
a) R₁ = ρ L / A
b) R₂ = ρ 2L / A
R₂ = 2 ρ L / A
R₂ = 2 R₁
c) R₃ = ρ L / 2A
R₃ = ½ ρ L / A
R₃ = 0.5 R₁
therefore when the connect of the circuit is carried out we can use ohm's law
V = i R
i = V / R
whereby
a) i₁ = V / R₁
b) i₂ = V / 2R₁
i₂ = ½ i₁
i₂ = 0.5 i₁
c) i₃ = V / 0.5 R₁
i₃ = 2 I₁
the order from highest to lowest in the current is
i₃ > i₁ > i₂
The answer to this question is: C) Meteor Shower
