Monochromatic light of wavelength lambda, such as light from a laser, is directed through two narrow parallel slits that are a distance d apart. There is a viewing screen a very long distance R away from the slits that is used to observe the interference pattern that emerges from the light shining through the slits. The distance that light travels from one slit to the screen is r1 and the distance that light travels from the other slit to the screen is r2. The central bright fringe of the interference pattern results due to a path difference, r1 – r2, of zero. What path difference is required to produce the first order bright fringe that is adjacent to the central bright fringe?

Answers

Answer:

When r1 – r2 equal the wavelength of the monochromatic light

Explanation:

This is because to observe a bright fringe a constructive interference pattern of path difference, r1 – r2 = mλ is observed, where m is an integer and λ = wavelength of monochromatic light.

For bright fringes and thus constructive interference, r1 – r2 must be integral multiples of the wavelength, λ. When r1 – r2 , we have the central bright fringe and thus m = 0.

The first order bright fringe which is adjacent to the central bright fringe is obtained when m = 1,

So r1 – r2 = 1 × λ

r1 – r2 = λ

Thus, the path difference required to produce the first order bright fringe that is adjacent to the central bright fringe is when r1 – r2 = λ, the wavelength of the monochromatic light.

which way would 2 negatively charged balloons naturally move? what would that do to the amount of potential energy stored in the field?

Answers

Answer:

gsg

Explanation:

The balloons with negative charges moves apart from each other by electrostatic force of repulsion. The potential energy in them increases as they move away.

What is force of repulsion?

The basic principle of charges is that, two like charges repel and unlike charge attracts. That is: two negative charged bodies or two positively charged bodies will repel each other and one negative charged body attracts a positively charged body.

In both cases attraction or repulsion the charged particles exerts a force with each other called the electrostatic force. The electrostatic force between two charges is directly proportional to the magnitude of charges and inversely proportional to the distance between them.

Una rueda que gira a 300 r.P.M. Aumenta su velocidad bajo una aceleración angular de 6 2 s rad : calcula: a) La velocidad angular después de 10 s. b) El número de vueltas que da en ese tiempo. Respuestas: f = 873.0 r.P.M.  = 97.746 vueltas.

Answers

Answer:

a)   w = 873 rev,  b)  θ = 97.75 rev

Explanation:

This is a rotation kinematics exercise

         w = w₀ + α t

         θ = θ₀ + w₀ t + ½ α t²

let's start by reducing the magnitudes to the SI system

         w₀ = 300 rpm (2pi rad / 1 rev) (1 min / 60s) = 31.42 rad / s

          α = 6 rad / s²

a) let's look for the angular velocity

            w = 31.42 + 6 10

             w = 91.42 rad / s

b) θ₀ = 0

             θ = 0 + 31.42 to + ½ 6 10²

             θ = 614.2 rad

As they ask for the result in rpm and revolutions, let's carry out the reduction

         w = 91.42 rad / s (1 rev / 2pi rad) (60 s / 1min)

         w = 873 rev

         θ = 614.2 rad (1 rev / 2pi rad)

         θ = 97.75 rev

The ratio of the number of pigs to the number of horse in a farm is 2 to 3 (2:3), if therected are 24 horses, what is the number of pigs?

Answers

Answer:

16 pigs

Explanation:

Let the horses be H.

Let the pigs be P

Let the total number of animals be x.

Given the following data;

Ratio of P to H = 2:3 = 2 + 3 = 5

Number of horses = 24

To find the number of pigs;

First of all, we would determine the total number of animals x.

From the ratio of horse, H:

3/5 * x = 24

Cross-multiplying, we have;

3x = 120

x = 120/3 = 40

Next, we find the number of pigs;

Pigs = 2/5 * 40

Pigs = 80/5 = 16 pigs

A student applies a 10 N force to a wood block with a mass of 5 kg. The block is pushed across four different surfaces. The accelerations of the block are recorded. Which surface showed the least friction?

Answers

The complete question is as follows: A student is subjected to a reaction force of 10 N northward from a 5 kg block while pushing the block over a smooth, level surface. Ignoring friction, what is the acceleration of the block?

Answer: The acceleration of the block is [tex]2 m/s^{2}[/tex].

Explanation:

Given: Force = 10 N

Mass = 5 kg

It is known that force applied on an object is the product of mass and acceleration.

Mathematically, [tex]F = m \times a[/tex]

where,

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]F = m \times a\\10 N = 5 kg \times a\\a = \frac{10}{5}\\= 2 m/s^{2}[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration of block is [tex]2 m/s^{2}[/tex].

Is this attractive or repulsive?


Can someone help me please? Thank you!!!!

Answers

Answer:

43740 N and attractive force

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, q₁ = -54.0 μC

Charge 2, q₂ = +36.0 μC

The distance between charges, r = 2 cm = 0.02 m

We need to find the force between charges. The formula for the force between charges is given by :

[tex]F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{54\times 10^{-6}\times 36\times 10^{-6}}{(0.02)^2}\\\\F=43740\ N[/tex]

As the charges are opposite, the force between them is attractive. Hence, the required force is 43740 N.

Explanation:

The Doppler effect is related to waves such as sound or light. the effect causes an increase or decrease in the frequency of sound light or other waves when the souces either move towards or away from the observer. For example the siren of the train to a person on the platform, the redshift seen by astronomers.

Therefore, The Doppler shift can be observed when the source of sound moves towards an observer From a place closer to the observer than the last wave's crest, each consecutive wave crest is sent. Each wave therefore, takes a little less time than the preceding wave to reach the observer.

The primary coil of a transformer has 411 turns; the secondary coil has 1000 turns. An alternating current is sent through the primary coil. The emf in the primary is of amplitude 11.7 V. What is the emf amplitude in the secondary

Answers

Answer:

The emf amplitude in the secondary coil is 26.53 V

Explanation:

Given that,

The number of turns of the primary coil of a transformer = 441

The number of turns of the secondary coil of a transformer = 1000

The emf in the primary is of amplitude 11.7 V

We need to find the emf amplitude in the secondary. We know that,

[tex]\dfrac{E_1}{N_1}=\dfrac{E_2}{N_2}\\\\E_2=\dfrac{E_1N_2}{N_1}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]E_2=\dfrac{11.7\times 1000}{441}\\\\E_2=26.53\ V[/tex]

So, the emf amplitude in the secondary coil is 26.53 V.

At apogee the moon is at its farthest from earth and thus appears smaller than normal. Because of this it has the smallest angular size in the sky at this time. True False

Answers

Answer:

the statement is FALSE

Explanation:

In the movement of celestial bodies the most common orbit is the ellipse, in this the sun orbits or in this case the planet Earth is in a focus and the lighter body rotates around in a closed orbit.

The closest point is called perigee and the farthest apogee, but throughout the movement the kinetic moment must be conserved, so at the farthest point the speed decreases so that the angular momentum remains constant since the radius is greater.

 

This phenomenon is also described in Kepler's second law as that the areas must be equal in equal periods of time, so the speed decreases when being further from the Earth.

Consequently the statement is FALSE

An alpha particle (charge 2e) is sent at high speed toward an atomic nucleus. The electric force acting on the alpha particle is 79.8 N when it is 2.29 x 10(-14) m away from the nucleus. What is the charge on the atomic nucleus? (e = 1.60 x 10(-19) C, Kc = 9 x 10(9) N•m(2)/c(2)

Answers

Answer:

1.45×10⁻¹⁶ C

Explanation:

Applying,

F = kqq'/r²................ Equation 1

Where F = force acting on the alpha particle, k = coulomb's constant, q = charge on the alpha particle, q' = charge on the atomic nucleus, r = distance of seperation between the alpha particle and the atomic nucleus.

make q' the subject of the equation

q' = Fr²/(kq)................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 79.8 N, r = 2.29×10⁻¹⁴ m, q = 2e = (2×1.6×10⁻¹⁹) = 3.2×10⁻¹⁹ C, k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 2

q' = [79.8×(2.29×10⁻¹⁴)²]/(3.2×10⁻¹⁹×9×10⁹)

q' = (4.18×10⁻²⁶)/(2.88×10⁻¹⁰)

q' = 1.45×10⁻¹⁶ C
