A Michelson interferometer uses light from a sodium lamp. Sodium atoms emit light having wavelengths 589.0 nm and 589.6 nm. The

interferometer is initially set up with both arms of equal length (L1=L2), producing a bright spot at the center of the interference pattern. How far must mirror M2 be moved so that one wavelength has produced one more new maxima than the other wavelength?

The distance mirror M2 must be moved so that one wavelength has produced one more new maxima than the other wavelength is;

<u><em>L = 57.88 mm</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

We are given;

Wavelength 1; λ₁ = 589 nm = 589 × 10⁻⁹ m

Wavelength 2; λ₂ = 589.6 nm = 589.6 × 10⁻⁹ m

We are told that L₁ = L₂. Thus, we will adopt L.

Formula for the number of bright fringe shift is;

m = 2L/λ

Thus;

For Wavelength 1;

m₁ = 2L/(589 × 10⁻⁹)

For wavelength 2;

m₂ = 2L/(589.6)

Now, we are told that one wavelength must have produced one more new maxima than the other wavelength. Thus;

m₁ - m₂ = 2

Plugging in the values of m₁ and m₂ gives;

(2L/589) - (2L/589.6) = 2

divide through by 2 to get;

L[(1/589) - (1/589.6)] = 1

L(1.728 × 10⁻⁶) = 1

L = 1/(1.728 × 10⁻⁶)

L = 578790.67 nm

L = 57.88 mm

The density of mobile electrons in copper metal is 8.4 1028 m-3. Suppose that i = 4.6 1018 electrons/s are drifting through a co
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The time is 106.7 minute.

Explanation:

Given that,

Density = 8.4\times10^{28}\ m^3

Current i = 4.6\times10^{18}\ electron/s

Diameter of wire = 1.2 mm

Length = 31 cm

We need to calculate the drift velocity

Using formula of drift velocity

v_{d}=\dfrac{I}{neA}

v_{d}=\dfrac{Ne}{tne\times\pi r^2}

Put the value into the formula

v_{d}=\dfrac{4.6\times10^{18}}{8.4\times10^{28}\times\pi\times(0.6\times10^{-3})^2}

v_{d}=4.842\times10^{-5}\ m/s

We need to calculate the time

Using formula for time

v_{d}=\dfrac{l}{t}

t=\dfrac{l}{v_{d}}

Where, l = length

v_{d} = drift velocity

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{31\times10^{-2}}{4.842\times10^{-5}}

t=6402.31\ sec

t=106.7\ minute

Hence, The time is 106.7 minute.

notka56 [123]
Between 9:00 am and 10:45 am, there have been 1 hour and 45 minutes or 1.75 hours have passed. Let x be the speed of the slower cyclist and x+ 5 be the rate of the second cyclist. The given situation is best represented through the equation below,
                                 x(1.75) + (x + 5)(1.75) = 47.25 km
The value of x from the equation is 11. Thus, the two bicyclists' rates are 11 km/h and 16 km/h.

Please answer all of them <br>I'll give brainly if answer for points will be reported ​
enyata [817]

Answer:

Level 1-

1. It depends of the sense and the magnitude of the force

2. Electric force

3. A contact force need to touch to act in the object, like push a box for example. A non-contact force don't need to touch to act in the object, like an magnet attracting other magnet

4. The pressure is the force divided by the area. The unit for pressure in the international system is Pascal

5. Because the pressure is applied in all the surface of our bodies, so the force is divided by the surface area of our bodies.

Level 2-

1. The balloons stick to the walls because when she rubbed they in her clothes they earned eletric charge, and when they touched the wall, the electric charges of the wall got polarized and it creats a attraction force.

The same happened with the water stream. The balloons were charged with electric charges and the water was attracted by it.

2. Mass is the amount of matter, it's an scalar quantity. Weight is the force created by the attraction of a massive body as the Earth, and another body as a human, and a force is a vector

3. It's for increase the surface area, so the pressure will be decreased

4. When a person pulls up the syringe plunger the pressure inside the syringe is smaller than the pressure outside, so the pressure push the liquid into the syringe

5. a) The stream of the top is falling closer than the stream from the bottom, causa in the top the pressure is lower than in the bottom. In the bottom, beyond the air pressure, it has also the whole column of water making more pressure, so it goes far.

b) The streams are all near because the holes are in the same height, so the pressure is divided for all the holes.

Level 3-

1. The girl.

pressure of the girl: 50/1 = 50

pressure of the man: 100/25 = 4

pressure of the elephant: 4500/250 = 18

So, the girl exerts more pressure.

2. When the can is heated the air inside expands and get out of it. If you seal the mouth of the can, the air cannot return to inside it, and when it get colder the air inside will shrink back to the normal volume, so it will occupy less space and the outside pressure will exerts a force and deform the can.

a body thrown vertically upwards from grounf with inital vel 40m/s then time taken by it to reach max hieght is?
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

t = 4.08 s

Explanation:

if the body is thrown upward, it has negative gravity. Knowing through the International System that the earth's gravity is 9.8 m/s²

Data:

  • Vo = 40 m/s
  • g = -9.8 m/s²
  • t = ?

Use formula:

  • \boxed{\bold{t=\frac{-(V_{0})}{g}}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{t=\frac{-(40\frac{m}{s})}{-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{t=4.08\ s}}}

Time taken by it to reach max height is <u>4.08 seconds.</u>

Greetings.
