The term 'thermal energy' is used differently, and often loosely, in different contexts. It refers to several distinct physical concepts, such as the internal energy, or as the enthalpy, of a body of matter and radiation; or as heat, defined as a type of energy transfer (as is thermodynamic work); or as the characteristic energy of a degree of freedom,

oksian1 [2.3K]
In a nuclear power plant, energy is released from the nuclei of atoms. The correct option among all the options given in the question is the first option. Huge amount of thermal energy is released by the breaking of the uranium atoms. This energy is used for turning a turbine that produces electricity. It is a very clean method of producing electricity.

Using a 683 nm wavelength laser, you form the diffraction pattern of a 1.1 mm wide slit on a screen. You measure on the screen t
n200080 [17]

Answer:

10.2 m

Explanation:

The position of the dark fringes (destructive interference) formed on a distant screen in the interference pattern produced by diffraction from a single slit are given by the formula:

y=\frac{\lambda (m+\frac{1}{2})D}{d}

where

y is the position of the m-th minimum

m is the order of the minimum

D is the distance of the screen from the slit

d is the width of the slit

\lambda is the wavelength of the light used

In this problem we have:

\lambda=683 nm = 683\cdot 10^{-9} m is the wavelength of the light

d=1.1 mm = 0.0011 m is the width of the slit

m = 13 is the order of the minimum

y=8.57 cm = 0.0857 m is the distance of the 13th dark fringe from the central maximum

Solving for D, we find the distance of the screen from the slit:

D=\frac{yd}{\lambda(m+\frac{1}{2})}=\frac{(0.0857)(0.0011)}{(683\cdot 10^{-9})(13+\frac{1}{2})}=10.2 m
