A mango falls fromthe top its tree passing a window which is 2.4m tall by taking 0.4s

Explanation:

There are three points in time we need to consider.  At point 0, the mango begins to fall from the tree.  At point 1, the mango reaches the top of the window.  At point 2, the mango reaches the bottom of the window.

We are given the following information:

y₁ = 3 m

y₂ = 3 m − 2.4 m = 0.6 m

t₂ − t₁ = 0.4 s

a = -9.8 m/s²

t₀ = 0 s

v₀ = 0 m/s

We need to find y₀.

Use a constant acceleration equation:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

Evaluated at point 1:

3 = y₀ + (0) t₁ + ½ (-9.8) t₁²

3 = y₀ − 4.9 t₁²

Evaluated at point 2:

0.6 = y₀ + (0) t₂ + ½ (-9.8) t₂²

0.6 = y₀ − 4.9 t₂²

Solve for y₀ in the first equation and substitute into the second:

y₀ = 3 + 4.9 t₁²

0.6 = (3 + 4.9 t₁²) − 4.9 t₂²

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − t₂²)

We know t₂ = t₁ + 0.4:

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − (t₁ + 0.4)²)

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − (t₁² + 0.8 t₁ + 0.16))

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − t₁² − 0.8 t₁ − 0.16)

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (-0.8 t₁ − 0.16)

0 = 2.4 − 3.92 t₁ − 0.784

0 = 1.616 − 3.92 t₁

t₁ = 0.412

Now we can plug this into the original equation and find y₀:

3 = y₀ − 4.9 t₁²

3 = y₀ − 4.9 (0.412)²

3 = y₀ − 0.83

y₀ = 3.83

Rounded to two significant figures, the height of the tree is 3.8 meters.

A laser of wavelength 720 nm illuminates a double slit where the separation between the slits is 0.22 mm. Fringes are seen on a
kumpel [21]

Answer:

The appropriate solution is "2.78 mm".

Explanation:

Given:

\lambda = 720 \ nm

or,

  = 720\times 10^{-9} \ m

D=0.85 \ m

d = 0.22 \ mm

or,

  =0.22 \times 10^{-3} \ m

As we know,

Fringe width is:

⇒ \beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d}

hence,

Separation between second and third bright fringes will be:

⇒ \theta=\beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d}

       =\frac{720\times 10^{-9}\times 0.85}{0.22\times 10^{-3}}

       =2.78\times 10^{-3} \ m

or,

       =2.78 \ mm
