Answer:

Δx = 4.68 x 10⁻³ m = 4.68 mm

Explanation:

The distance between the consecutive maxima, in Young's Double Slit Experiment is given bu the following formula:

Δx = λD/d

So, the distance between the eighth order maximum and the fourth order maximum on the screen will be given as:

Δx = 4λD/d

where,

Δx = distance between eighth order maximum and fourth order maximum=?

λ = wavelength = 487 nm = 4.87 x 10⁻⁷ m

d = slit separation = 0.2 mm = 2 x 10⁻⁴ m

D = Distance between slits and screen = 48 cm = 0.48 m

Therefore,

Δx = (4)(4.87 x 10⁻⁷ m)(0.48 m)/(2 x 10⁻⁴ m)

<u>Δx = 4.68 x 10⁻³ m = 4.68 mm</u>

Dropping a stone from a height is work or not?​
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Dropping a stone from a height is work  

Explanation:

Work is the action of a force through a distance.

w = fd

The Earth's gravitational attractive force is pulling the stone to its centre, so the Earth is doing work on the stone.

¿Cuál es la velocidad del sonido en el aíre a -25°C?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

La velocidad del sonido en el aire (a una temperatura de 20 ºC) es de 343 m/s. La ecuación creada por Newton y posteriormente modificada por Laplace que permite obtener la velocidad del sonido en el aire teniendo en cuenta la variable de la temperatura es "331+(0,6 x Temperatura)".

How long( in hours, will it take for 500 000 C of charge to flow through a diode if it requires
Alina [70]

Answer:

277.78 hours

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the amount of charge is expressed as;

Q = It

I is the current

t is the time

Given

I =0.05A

Q = 50,000C

Required

Time t

Recall that: Q = It

t = Q/I

t = 50,000/0.05

t = 1,000,000secs

Convert to hours

1,000,000secs  = 1,000,000/3600

1,000,000secs = 277.78 hours

Hence it will take 277.78 hours for the charge to flow through the diode

A field measuring 12 meters by 16 meters is to have a brick paver walkway installed all around it, increasing the total area to
kolezko [41]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Length. L = 12 m

Width, W = 16 m

Area, A = 12 x 16 = 192 m^2

Let the width of pavement be d.

The new length, L' = 12 + 2d

the new width, W' = 16 + 2d  

New Area, A' = L' x W' = (12 + 2d)(16 + 2d) = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2

Difference in area = A' - A

285 =  192 + 56 d + 4d^2 - 192

93 =  56 d + 4d^2

4d^2 + 56 d - 93 = 0

d = \frac{-56\pm \sqrt{56^{2}+4\times 4\times 93}}{8}

d=\frac{-56\pm 87.72}{8}\

d = 1.5 m

Thus, the width of the pavement is 1.5 m.
