Design an experimental set up to show that white light is made up of different colours of light​

Physics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Issac Newton was the first to use a glass prism to obtain the spectrum of sunlight. He tried to split the colours of the spectrum of white light further by using another similar prism. However, he could not get any more colours. He then placed a second identical prism in an inverted position with respect to the first as shown.

This allowed all the colours of the spectrum to pass through the second prism. He found a beam of white light emerging from the other side of the second prism. This observation gave Newton the idea that the sunlight is made-up of seven colours.

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

a) -1.14 rev/min²

b) 9900 rev

c) -9.92×10⁻⁴ m/s²

d) 30.8 m/s²

Explanation:

First, convert hours to minutes:

2.2 h × 60 min/h = 132 min

a) Angular acceleration is change in angular velocity over change in time.

α = (ω − ω₀) / t

α = (0 rev/min − 150 rev/min) / 132 min

α = -1.14 rev/min²

b) θ = θ₀ + ω₀ t + ½ αt²

θ = 0 rev + (150 rev/min) (132 min) + ½ (-1.14 rev/min²) (132 min)²

θ = 9900 rev

c) The tangential component of linear acceleration is:

a_t = αr

First,  convert α from rev/min² to rad/s²:

-1.14 rev/min² × (2π rad/rev) × (1 min / 60 s)² = -1.98×10⁻³ rad/s²

Therefore:

a_t = (-1.98×10⁻³ rad/s²) (0.50 m)

a_t = -9.92×10⁻⁴ m/s²

d) The magnitude of the net linear acceleration can be found from the tangential component and the radial component:

a² = (a_t)² + (a_r)²

The radial component is the centripetal acceleration:

a_r = v² / r

a_r = ω² r

First, convert 75 rev/min to rad/s:

75 rev/min × (2π rad/rev) × (1 min / 60 s) = 7.85 rad/s

Find the radial component:

a_r = (7.85 rad/s)² (0.50 m)

a_r = 30.8 m/s²

Now find the net linear acceleration:

a² = (-9.92×10⁻⁴ m/s²² + (30.8 m/s²)²

a = 30.8 m/s²

A diet is to contain at least 2400 mg vitamin C, 1800mg Calcium, and 1200 calories every day. Two foods, a dairy-based meal and
Kay [80]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Let x represent the number of ounce of dairy based meal and let y represent the number of vegan option in ounce.

Since the diet must contain at least 2400 mg vitamin C, therefore:

50x + 20y ≥ 2400

Since the diet must contain at least 1800 mg Calcium, therefore:

30x + 20y ≥ 1200

Since the diet must contain at least 1200 calories, therefore:

10x + 40y ≥ 1200

Therefore the constraints are:

50x + 20y ≥ 2400

30x + 20y ≥ 1200

10x + 40y ≥ 1200

x > 0, y > 0

The graph was drawn using geogebra online graphing tool, and the solution to the problem is at:

C(30, 45) and D(48, 18)

dairy-based meal costs $0.042 per ounce and the vegan option costs $0.208 per ounce. The cost equation is:

Cost = 0.042x + 0.208y

At C(30, 45);  Cost = 0.042(30) + 0.208(45) = $10.62

At C(48, 18);  Cost = 0.042(48) + 0.208(18) = $5.76

The minimum cost is at (48, 18). That is 48 dairy based meal and 18 vegan
