Suppose that the light from the pinhole projects onto a screen 3.00 meters away. What is the radius r1 of the first dark ring on

that screen? Notice that the angle from part a is small enough that sinθ≈tanθ.

Answer:

16 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The next information is misssing: The first dark ring can be found at angle 0.305 degrees.

A rigth triangle is formed in wich one leg is the radius r1 of the first dark ring and the other leg is the distance between the screen and the laser (L), which is equal to 3 meters.

Using the relationship sinθ≈tanθ we get:

tanθ = r1/L

tan 0.305  = r1 / 3

r1 =  tan(0.305°) * 3 m

r1 = 0.016 m = 16 mm

astraxan [27]

Answer:

18 million kilometers in one min. and 0.3 million kilometers in one second

Step-by-step explanation:

so the one min. is easy because all you have to do is take 180 and divide it by 10 and you get 18 million kilometers in one min. and then you would take 18 and divide it by 60 and you would get 0.3 million kilometers in one second

A rope is 66 feet long. It is cut into two pieces such that one piece is half the length of the other. What is the length of the
dedylja [7]
So if one bit of the length, is half the size of the other bit then we can make the following equation, for x being the length of rope:

x + 2x = 66
3x = 66
x = 22

That is the length, of the smaller one (half the big one), so 2x = 44. Hence d) is your answer.

Hope I helped!
