Two lasers, one red (with wavelength 633.0 nm) and the other green (with wavelength 532.0 nm), are mounted behind a 0.150-mm sli

t. On the other side of the slit is a white screen. When the red laser is turned on, it creates a diffraction pattern on the screen.
a. The distance y3,red from the center of the pattern to the location of the third diffraction minimum of the red laser is 4.05 cm. How far L is the screen from the slit? Express this distance L in meters to three significant figures.
b. With both lasers turned on, the screen shows two overlapping diffraction patterns. The central maxima of the two patterns are at the same position. What is the distance Δy between the third minimum in the diffraction pattern of the red laser (from Part A) and the nearest minimum in the diffraction pattern of the green laser?

Answer:

a.3.20m

b.0.45cm

Explanation:

a. Equation for minima is defined as: sin \theta=\frac{m\lambda}{\alpha}

Given m=3,\lambda=6.33\times 10^-^7 and \alpha=0.00015:

#Substitute our variable values in the minima equation to obtain \theta:

\theta=sin^-^1 (\frac{3\times 6.33\times 10^-^7}{0.00015})\\\\\theta=0.01266rad

#draw a triangle to find the relationship between \theta, y \ and L.

tan(\theta)=y/L               #where y=4.05cm

L=y/tan(\theta)=3.20

Hence the screen is 3.20m from the split.

b.  To find the closest minima for green(the fourth min will give you the smallest distance)

#Like with a above, the minima equation will be defined as:

sin \theta=\frac{m\lambda}{\alpha}, where m=4 given that it's the minima with the smallest distance.

sin \theta=\frac{4\lambda}{\alpha}\\\theta=sin^-^1 (\frac{4\times 6.33\times 10^-^7}{0.00015})\\\\\theta=0.01688rad

#we then use tan(\theta)=y/L to calculate L=4.5cm

Then from the equation subtract y_3 from y:

4.50cm-4.05cm=0.45cm

Hence, the distance \bigtriangleup y is 0.45cm

Many kinds of analysis in the physical sciences are helped by identifying quantities that are constant. It is usual to begin by
AysviL [449]

Answer:

  • As, there are different physical quantities which are required to be measured in a more proper way to define the circuits properties.
  1. As, there is current,I which is the more directed flow of electrons inside the circuit.
  2. Along, with which the voltage,V or in other words the potential difference inside the circuit is also taken under consideration.
  3. And most importantly the resistance's,R value inside the circuit defines the parameters inside the circuit.
  4. All of these values are then determined or analyzed with the help of the digital multi-meter or simply the DMM.

A mass m slides down a frictionless ramp and approaches a frictionless loop with radius R. There is a section of the track with
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

   h = 2 R (1 +μ)

Explanation:

This exercise must be solved in parts, first let us know how fast you must reach the curl to stay in the

let's use the mechanical energy conservation agreement

starting point. Lower, just at the curl

       Em₀ = K = ½ m v₁²

final point. Highest point of the curl

        Em_{f} = U = m g y

Find the height y = 2R

      Em₀ = Em_{f}

      ½ m v₁² = m g 2R

       v₁ = √ 4 gR

Any speed greater than this the body remains in the loop.

In the second part we look for the speed that must have when arriving at the part with friction, we use Newton's second law

X axis

    -fr = m a                      (1)

Y Axis  

      N - W = 0

      N = mg

the friction force has the formula

     fr = μ  N

     fr = μ m g

    we substitute 1

    - μ mg = m a

     a = - μ g

having the acceleration, we can use the kinematic relations

    v² = v₀² - 2 a x

    v₀² = v² + 2 a x

the length of this zone is x = 2R

    let's calculate

     v₀ = √ (4 gR + 2 μ g 2R)

     v₀ = √4gR( 1 + μ)

this is the speed so you must reach the area with fricticon

finally have the third part we use energy conservation

starting point. Highest on the ramp without rubbing

     Em₀ = U = m g h

final point. Just before reaching the area with rubbing

     Em_{f} = K = ½ m v₀²

      Em₀ = Em_{f}

     mgh = ½ m 4gR(1 + μ)

       h = ½ 4R (1+ μ)

       h = 2 R (1 +μ)

Derive an expression for the acceleration of the car. Express your answer in terms of D and vt Determine the time at which the s
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

V(car) = V(truck) at t = Dt/2

acceleration = v(car) = D/t^2

Explanation:

acceleration = v(car) = D/t^2

Since the average velocities must be the same, the car's final velocity must be twice the trunk velocity assuming the car start with zero velocity, since acceleration remain the same throughout the journey velocities at half-time point must be equal.

Alicia can row 6 miles downstream in the same time it takes her to row 4 miles upstream. She rows downstream 3 miles/hour faster
m_a_m_a [10]
Let us assume the upstream rowing rate of Alicia = x
Let us assume the downstream rowing rate of Alicia = y
We already know that
Travelling time = Distance traveled/rowing rate
Then
6/(x + 3) = 4/x
6x = 4x + 12
6x - 4x = 12
2x = 12
x = 6
Then
Rowing rate of Alicia going upstream = 6 miles per hour
Rowing rate of Alicia going downstream = 9 miles per hour.
