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.

Electric charges that are different attract each other.
n200080 [17]

There are two forces between any two charges
or charged objects.

Each one exerts a force on the other one, and
the forces are equal.

If the charges are the same sign, the the forces push.

If the charges are different signs, then the forces pull.

Plzz help! A stationary speed gun emits a
baherus [9]

Answer:

The speed of the baseball is approximately 19.855 m/s

Explanation:

From the question, we have;

The frequency of the microwave beam emitted by the speed gun, f = 2.41 × 10¹⁰ Hz

The change in the frequency of the returning wave, Δf = +3190 Hz higher

The Doppler shift for the microwave frequency emitted by the speed gun which is then reflected back to the gun by the moving baseball is given by 2 shifts as follows;

 \dfrac{\Delta f}{f} = \dfrac{2 \cdot v_{baseball}}{c}

\therefore{\Delta f}{} = \dfrac{2 \cdot v_{baseball}}{c} \times f

Where;

Δf = The change in frequency observed, known as the beat frequency = 3190 Hz

v_{baseball} = The speed of the baseball

c = The speed of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

f = The frequency of the microwave beam = 2.41 × 10¹⁰ Hz

By plugging in the values, we have;

\therefore{\Delta f} = 3190 \ Hz =  \dfrac{2 \cdot v_{baseball}}{3.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s} \times 2.41 \times 10^{10} \ Hz

v_{baseball} = \dfrac{3190 \ Hz \times 3.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s }{2.41 \times 10^{10} \ Hz \times 2} \approx 19.855 \ m/s

The speed of the baseball, v_{baseball} ≈ 19.855 m/s

Which equation represents mass-energy equivalence? E = m2c E = mc2 E = (mc)2 E = mc
motikmotik

Einstein's energy mass equivalence relation say that if the whole given mass is converted to energy then it would be

E = mc^2

where

m = mass in kg

c = speed of light in m/s

this is the origination of quantum physics and by this formula we can relate the dual nature of light and particle

So correct relation above will be

E = mc^2
