A double-slit experiment is set up using red light (λ = 706 nm). A first order bright fringe is seen at a given location on a sc

Elanso [62]

Answer:

λ = 470.66 nm

Explanation:

for bright fringe $y_m = \frac{m\lambda D}{d}$

D= distance between slit and screen

d= distance between the slits

for first order bright fringe m = 1,

$y_1 = \frac{1\lambda D}{d}$

$y_1 = {706*D}{d}$

for dark fringe,we have

$y_m = {(m + 1/2)\lambda D}{d}$

Now to get the dark fringes at the same location we should have;

(706)D/d = (m + 1/2)λD/d

put m = 1

(1 + 1/2)λ = (706)

λ = 470.66 nm

How many nanoseconds are there in 1.90 yr ?<br> Express your answer using three significant figures.

shepuryov [24]

   (1.9 yr) x (365.24 day/yr) x (86,400 sec/day) x (10⁹ nsec/sec)

   = (1.9 x 365.24 x 86,400 x 10⁹) nanosec

   = 6.00 x 10¹⁶ nanoseconds

The graph below is called a heating curve. It shows how water changes from one state of matter to another based on temperature a

Neporo4naja [7]

Explanation :

The heating curve shows how water changes from one state of matter to another based on temperature and the addition or removal of heat over time.

Initially, ice is heated until its temperature reaches $0^0\ C$ and changes to liquid state.

From the attached graph it is clear that until $100^0\ C$ the temperature will rise steadily. Here, the liquid begins to vaporize. Vaporization is the state of matter at which liquid state changes to the gaseous state.

So, E is the point which shows the gaseous state.

A system of pulleys is used to raise a load of bricks that weighs 1,700 newtons. The force applied to the pulley is 340 newtons.

Law Incorporation [45]

By definition, we have that the mechanical advantage is given by the following equation:
$MA = \frac{W}{T} 
$
Where,
W: is the load
T: is the tension
Substituting the values in the given equation we have:
$MA = \frac{1700}{340}$
$MA = 5
$
Therefore, the mechanical advantage is equal to 5.
Answer:
The mechanical advantage of this machine is:
MA = 5

A police officer is parked by the side of the road, when a speeding car travelling at 50 mi/hrpasses. The police car immediately

Blababa [14]

Answer:

a) time taken to catch up with speeding car is 12.25 secs

b) the police car will travel 273.8 m to catch up with the speeding car

Explanation:

Given that;

speed of car $V_{c}$ = 50 mi/hr = 22.352 m/s

acceleration of police car = 10 mi/hr = 4.47 m/s²

$V_{f}$ = 70 mi/hr = 31.29 m/s

Now time taken to reach maximum speed is t₁

so

$V_{f}$ = $V_{i}$ + at₁

we substitute

31.29 = 0 + 4.47t₁

t₁ = 31.29 / 4.47

t₁ = 7 sec

now

d₁ = 0 + 1/2 × at₁²

d₁ = 0 + 1/2 × 0 + 4.47×(7)²

d₁ = 109.5 m

so distance travelled by the speeding car in time t₁ will be

$d_{c}$ = $V_{c}$ × t₁

we substitute

$d_{c}$ = 22.352 × 7

$d_{c}$ = 156.46 m

now distance between polive car and speeding car

Δd = $d_{c}$ - d₁

Δd = 156.46 - 109.5

Δd = 46.96 m

time taken to cover Δd will be

t₂ = Δd / ( $V_{f}$ - $V_{c}$ )

t₂ = 46.96 / ( 31.29 - 22.352 )

t₂ = 46.96 / 8.938

t₂ = 5.25 sec

distance travelled by the police in time t₂ will be

d₂ = $V_{f}$ × t₂

d₂ = 31.29 × 5.25

d₂ = 164.3 m

a) How long will it take before the officer catches up to the speeding car;

time taken to catch up with speeding car;

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 7 + 5.25

t = 12.25 secs

Therefore, time taken to catch up with speeding car is 12.25 secs

b) how far will it have travelled in order to do so;

distance = d₁ + d₂

distance = 109.5 + 164.3

distance = 273.8 m

Therefore, the police car will travel 273.8 m to catch up with the speeding car
