Answer:
λ = 596 nm.
Explanation:
Fringe width = λ D / d
λ is wave length , D is screen distance and d is slit separation.
Putting the values
1.62 x 10⁻² =( λ x 5.3 ) / .195 x 10⁻³
λ = 596 nm.
Answer:
A car accelerating to the right
Explanation:
The free-body diagram shows all the forces acting on an object. The length of each arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the force represented by that arrow.
In this free-body diagram, we see that there are 4 forces acting on the object, in 4 different directions. We also see that the two vertical forces are equal so they are balanced, while the force to the rigth is larger than the force to the left: this means that there is a net force to the right, so the object is accelerating to the right.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A car accelerating to the right
Answer:
Regular reflection
Explanation:
- Reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when a light wave hits the interface between two different mediums and it bounces off back into the same medium. The angle of reflection (measured between the reflected ray and the perpendicular to the interface) is equal to the angle of incidence (measured between the incident ray and the perpendicular to the interface).
There are two different types of reflection:
- Regular reflection: this occurs when the interface between the two mediums is smooth (such as in the case of the still lake), so all the parallel light waves (which have same angle of incidence) are reflected exactly with the same angle of reflection (so, they come out all with same direction)
- Diffuse reflection: this occurs when the interface between the two mediums is not smooth, so each light ray is reflected with a different angle because it hits the interface with a different angle of incidence.
Therefore, in the case of the still lake, the correct answer is regular reflection.
Answer:
in a transverse wave, The directions that energy and matter travel in are perpendicular to one another.
these waves are types of mechanical waves that doesn't require any material medium to transfer.
Answer:
717 Hz
Explanation:
<u>solution:</u>
The wave with three antinodes has m = 3. Thus, f_3 = 3f_1 and so the fundamental frequency of the string is
f_1 =f_3/3
=430 Hz/3
=143 Hz
Thus, the frequency of the fifth harmonic is
f_5 = 5*f_1
= 5*143 Hz
= 717 Hz
