Which is the destructive interference formula for diffraction grating problems?

1 answer:

meriva2 years ago

5 0

The formula for the brighter patches resulting from constructive interference and darker patches resulting from destructive interference in a diffraction grating is:

dsin(θ) = nλ

Here, d is the spacing between the grating, θ is the angle of light, n is the fringe order and λ is the wavelength. N has integer values only.

Destructive interference occurs between the fringes, so the formula for destructive interference becomes:

dsin(θ) = (n+1/2)λ, where n is again an integer.

The function p(x) = -2(x-9)2 + 100 used to determine the profit on T-shirts sold for x dollars. What would the profit from sales

Elden [556K]

Answer:

$28.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = -2(x - 9)^2 + 100

If the prices (x) = 15 dollars we work out the profit by substituting x = 15 in the above formula:

p(15) = -2(15 - 9)^2 + 100

= -2 * 6^2 + 100

= $28.

"Immediately after a ban on using hand-held cell phones while driving was implemented, compliance with the law was measured. A r

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

(a) Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1-p_2=0$ or $p_1= p_2$

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1-p_2\neq 0$ or $p_1\neq p_2$

(b) We conclude that there is a statistical difference in these two proportions measured initially and then one year later.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of 1,250 drivers found that 98.9% were in compliance. A year after the implementation, compliance was again measured to see if compliance was the same (or not) as previously measured.

A different random sample of 1,100 drivers found 96.9% compliance."

Let $p_1$ = proportion of drivers that were in compliance initially

$p_2$ = proportion of drivers that were in compliance one year later

(a) Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1-p_2=0$ or $p_1= p_2$ {means that there is not any statistical difference in these two proportions measured initially and then one year later}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1-p_2\neq 0$ or $p_1\neq p_2$ {means that there is a statistical difference in these two proportions measured initially and then one year later}

The test statistics that will be used here is Two-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{ \frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} + \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of drivers in compliance initially = 98.9%

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of drivers in compliance one year later = 96.9%

$n_1$ = sample of drivers initially = 1,250

$n_2$ = sample of drivers one year later = 1,100

(b) So, the test statistics = $\frac{(0.989-0.969)-(0)}{\sqrt{ \frac{0.989(1-0.989)}{1,250} + \frac{0.969(1-0.969)}{1,100}} }$

= 3.33

Now, P-value of the test statistics is given by;

P-value = P(Z > 3.33) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 3.33)

= 1 - 0.99957 = 0.00043

Since in the question we are not given with the level of significance so we assume it to be 5%. Now at 5% significance level, the z table gives critical values between -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistics does not lies within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that there is a statistical difference in these two proportions measured initially and then one year later.

A company manufactures aluminum mailboxes in the shape of a box with a half-cylinder top. The company will make 1863 mailboxes t

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

3433 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image, we have a rectangular box without cover and half a cylinder on top.

Formula for surface area of rectangular box with top is;

S = 2(lh + wh + lw)

From the image,

l = 0.6 m

w = 0.4 m

h = 0.55 m

Thus;

S = 2((0.6 × 0.55) + (0.4 × 0.55) + (0.6 × 0.4))

S = 1.58 m²

Now, since the top is not included for this figure, then;

Surface area of this rectangular box is;

S1 = 1.58 - (lw) = 1.58 - (0.4 × 0.6) = 1.34 m²

Surface area of a cylinder is;

S = 2πr² + 2πrh

r is radius and in this case = 0.4/2 = 0.2 m

h = 0.6

S = 2π(0.2² + (0.2 × 0.6))

S = 1.005 m²

Since it is half cylinder, then we have;

S2 = 1.005/2

S2 = 0.5025 m²

Total surface area; S_t = S1 + S2

S_t = 1.34 + 0.5025

S_t = 1.8425 m²

This is the surface area of one mail box.

Thus, for 1863 mailboxes, total surface area is;

S = 1863 × 1.8425 = 3432.5775 m²

Approximating to the nearest Sq.m gives;

S = 3433 m²

The manager of a video game store found that 35 of the 140 people who preordered the latest baseball game canceled their orders

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer: $\frac{1}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The manager of a video game store found that 35 of the 140 people who preordered the latest baseball game canceled their orders the day before the game was released.

The probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released

$=\frac{35}{140}\times\frac{35}{140}=\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}$

Hence, The probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released is $\frac{1}{16}$ .
