Light from a helium-neon laser (λ=633nm) passes through a circular aperture and is observed on a screen 5.80 mm behind the apert
Helga [31]

Explanation:

Whenever the light passes through hole or slit then it tends to bend that is actually a diffraction. It will then made the interference pattern of light and dark bands that due to constructive and destructive interference.

So by using the equation of diffraction,

dsinA = nL

SinA is a geometric component it can be written as,

d\frac{y}{x} = nL

∵ x is the distance from screen.

∵ y is the half of the width of central maximum.

now by putting the values in mm,

d\frac{17}{5.80} = 0.000633

d = 2.15×10^{-4} mm

A hockey puck sliding at 60.0m/s slows uniformly to 20.0m/s while travelling 800.0m.
julia-pushkina [17]
A) -3.75 meters/second
A=(20^2-80^2)/(2x800)
=(400-6400)/1600
=-6000/1600
=-3.75
B) 16 seconds
t=(20-80)/-3.75
=-60/-3.75
=16

Particle A has very little mass in comparison to Particle B. Both particles are in the same atom. Which is the best conclusion a
ollegr [7]
Particle-A is an electron, racing around in a cloud that's far from the nucleus.

Particle-B is either a proton or a neutron, in the nucleus.

The big clue is where you said that particle-A has very little mass
compared to particle-B.  Protons and neutrons have almost identical
masses, but it's the same mass as more than 1,800 electrons !

Consider the two electron arrangements for neutral atoms a and b. Are atoms a and b the same element? a - 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s1 b -
Agata [3.3K]

The two neutral atoms A and B have the same number of electrons and atomic number 11. So, the two elements are said to be same.

The electronic configuration of the element is the arrangement of the electrons in the atom of the element in energy levels, orbitals around the nucleus.

The electrons in the atoms of the element with lowest energy are written first before those with higher energy levels. Thus, the electronic configuration shows the electrons in the atoms of the element arranged in order of increasing energies.

The electronic configuration of atoms are given as

A = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

B = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 5s¹

The number of electrons in both the elements is 11. Therefore, their atomic number is also the same i.e, 11. So, both the elements are the same.
