Answer:

halve the slit separation

Explanation:

As we know that

In YDS experiment, the equation of fringe width is as follows

\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d}

where,

D denotes the separation in the middle of screen and slits

d denotes the distance in the middle of two slits

And to increase the Δx we have to decrease the d i.e, the distance between the two slits

Hence, the first option is correct

Answer:

E=477.92\ W.m^{-2}

Explanation:

Given that:

Absolute temperature of the body, T=273+30=303\ K

  • emissivity of the body, \epsilon=1

<u>Using Stefan Boltzmann Law of thermal radiation:</u>

E=\epsilon. \sigma.T^4

where:

\sigma =5.67\times 10^{-8}\ W.m^{-2}.K^{-4}   (Stefan Boltzmann constant)

Now putting the respective values:

E=1\times 5.67\times 10^{-8}\times 303^4

E=477.92\ W.m^{-2}

An object on a number line moved from x = 15 cm to x = 165 cm and then
olasank [31]

Answer:

v_avg = 2.9 cm/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of the object is the sum of the distance of all its trajectories divided the time:

v_{avg}=\frac{x_{all}}{t}

x_all is the total distance traveled by the object. In this case you have that the object traveled in the first trajectory 165cm-15cm = 150cm, and in the second one, 165cm - 25cm = 140cm

Then, x_all = 150cm + 140cm = 290cm

The average velocity is, for t = 100s

v_{avg}=\frac{290cm}{100s}=2.9\frac{cm}{s}

hence, the average velocity of the object in the total trajectory traveled is 2.9 cm/s

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

A) There are two important angles within the plastic: the angle immediately after the first refraction (the water/plastic interface) and the angle immediately before the second refraction (the plastic/air interface).

To find out how they relate, draw a picture with the path the light follows in the plastic and the normal to both surfaces.

Once you have labeled both angles, keep in mind that the surfaces are parallel, and thus their normal are parallel lines. An important theorem from geometry will give you the relationship between the angles.

zhenek [66]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Force on each hand is 196.22 N

Force on each foot is 95.8 N

Explanation:

In order to get a better understanding of this question let us explain some concepts

Normal Force:

We can define normal force Fn as that type of force which makes a 90 degree angle with the surface on which it is exerted.

Torque:

We can define torque as the moment of forces that tends to produce or cause rotation

From the question we are given that

Weight of body is (W) = 584 N

The normal force on both hands (Ha) = ?

The normal force on both legs (Lg) = ?

Looking at the diagram the person is at equilibrium so

                 584 = Ha + Lg

an also this mean that torques acting on the body is balanced

         So,   0.410 Ha  = 0.840 Lg

    Making Lg the subject of formula in the equation above we

   Lg = 0.4881 Ha

 Considering the first equation and replacing Lg with this recent equation we have

                      584 = Ha + 0.4881 Ha

          Therefore Ha = 392.44 N

This value obtained is  for both hands for each hand we divide by 2

Therefore we have for each hand = 392.44/2 =196.55 N

Since we have been able to get the force on both hands we can substitute it in to the equation where we made Lg the subject of formula and we have

             Lg = 0.4881 ×  392.44

                  = 191.22 N

The value above is the force on both legs to obtain the force on each leg we have

                  191.22/2 = 95.8 N.

A block of mass 3m is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface, and a second block of mass m is placed on top of the first bl
tatuchka [14]

By Newton's second law, assuming <em>F</em> is horizontal,

• the net <u>horizontal</u> force on the <u>larger</u> block is

<em>F</em> - <em>µmg</em> = 3<em>mA</em>

where <em>µmg</em> is the magnitude of friction felt by the larger block due to rubbing with the smaller one, <em>µ</em> is the coefficient of static friction between the two blocks, and <em>A</em> is the block's acceleration;

• the net <u>vertical</u> force on the <u>larger</u> block is

4<em>mg</em> - 3<em>mg</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

where 4<em>mg</em> is the mag. of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the combined mass of the two blocks, 3<em>mg</em> is the weight of the larger block, and <em>mg</em> is the weight of the smaller block;

• the net <u>horizontal</u> force on the <u>smaller</u> block is

<em>µmg</em> = <em>ma</em>

where <em>µmg</em> is again the friction between the two blocks, but notice that this points in the same direction as <em>F</em>. It is the only force acting on the smaller block in the horizontal direction, so (b) static friction is causing the smaller block to accelerate;

• the net <u>vertical</u> force on the <u>smaller</u> block is

<em>mg</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

where <em>mg</em> is the magnitude of both the normal force of the larger block pushing up on the smaller one, and the weight of the smaller block.

(You should be able to draw your own FBD's based on the forces mentioned above.)

(c) Solve the equations above for <em>A</em> and <em>a</em> :

<em>A</em> = (<em>F</em> - <em>µmg</em>) / (3<em>m</em>)

<em>a</em> = <em>µg</em>
