Light passes through a 0.15 mm-wide slit and forms a diffraction pattern on a screen 1.25 m behind the slit. The width of the central maximum is 0.75 cm. What is the wavelength of the light?

a. 400nm
b. 450nm
c. 510nm
d. 600nm

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. 450 nm

Explanation:

The wavelength of light can be calculated by using the formula derived in Young's double slit experiment. The formula is as follows:

Δx = λL/d

Δx/2 = λL/2d

where,

Δx/2 = half distance between consecutive dark fringes = width of central maximum = 0.75 cm = 0.0075 m

λ =  wavelength of light = ?

L = Distance of Screen = 1.25 m

d = width of slit = 0.15 mm = 0.00015 m

Therefore,

0.0075 m = λ(1.25 m)/(0.00015 m)

λ = (0.0075 m)(0.00015 m)/2(1.25 m)

λ = 4.5 x 10⁻⁷ m = 450 nm

Thus, the correct option is:

b. 450 nm

Consider a person standing in an elevator that is moving at a constant velocity down. The upward normal force N exerted by the elevator floor on the person is Select one: a. smaller than the downward force of gravity on the person. b. identical to the downward force of gravity on the person. c. larger than the downward force of gravity on the person.

Answers

Answer:

b. identical to the downward force of gravity on the person.

Explanation:

For an object in an elevator,

F = mg - ma       (g > a)

But since the velocity is uniform, a = 0.

Then,

F = mg - 0

F = mg

This is the actual weight of the object.

The object does not feel weightless, so that its actual weight can be measured during the downward motion of the elevator with uniform velocity.

Thus, the upward normal force, N, exerted by the elevator floor on the person is identical to the downward force of gravity on the person.

Assuming the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is exactly one-sixth of the acceleration due to gravity on Earth, what is the weight of the object on the moon?

Answers

I have assumed a weight of 120 N on Earth.

Answer:

The object weighs 20 N on the moon

Explanation:

Weight

The weight of an object depends on the mass m of the object and the acceleration of gravity g of the place they are in.

The formula to calculate the weight is:

W = m.g

If g_e is the acceleration of gravity on Earth, and g_m is the acceleration of gravity on the moon, we know:

[tex]g_m=1/6 g_e[/tex]

Dividing by ge:

[tex]g_m/g_e = 1/6[/tex]

An object of weight We=120 N on planet Earth has a mass of:

[tex]m = 120 / g_e[/tex]

Multiplying by gm:

[tex]m.g_m=120 g_m/g_e[/tex]

Substituting the ratio of accelerations of gravity:

[tex]m.g_m=120 * 1/6[/tex]

Since m.gm is the weight on the Moon Wm:

[tex]W_m=20~N[/tex]

The object weighs 20 N on the moon

Assuming the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is exactly one-sixth of the acceleration due to gravity on Earth, the weight of the object on the moon would be one-sixth of its weight on Earth.

Knowing an object's weight on Earth and applying the ratio of the acceleration caused by gravity on the moon to that on Earth will allow us to determine an object's weight on the moon.

Assume that the object's weight on Earth is W (in newtons).

On Earth, the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 [tex]m/s^2[/tex].

On the moon, = (1/6) * 9.8 [tex]m/s^2[/tex] = 1.6333 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

Weight = Mass * Acceleration due to gravity

Weight on the moon = W * (1/6)

Thus, the weight of the object on the moon would be one-sixth of its weight on Earth.

A 4.8-g particle is moving toward a stationary 7.4-g particle at 3.0 m/s. What percentage of the original kinetic energy is convertible to internal energy?

Answers

Answer:

60.185 percent of the original kinetic energy is convertible to internal energy.

Explanation:

Let suppose that collision between both particles is entirely inellastic. If there is no external forces exerted on any of the particles, then we can apply the Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation. That is:

[tex]m_{A}\cdot v_{A,o} + m_{B}\cdot v_{B,o} = (m_{A}+m_{B})\cdot v[/tex]

[tex]v = \frac{m_{A}\cdot v_{A,o}+v_{B}\cdot v_{B,o}}{m_{A}+m_{B}}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]m_{A}[/tex] - Mass of the 4.8-g particle, measured in kilograms.

[tex]m_{B}[/tex] - Mass of the 7.4-g particle, measured in kilograms.

[tex]v_{A,o}[/tex] - Initial speed of the 4.8-g particle, measured in meters per second.

[tex]v_{B,o}[/tex] - Initial speed of the 7.4-g particle, measured in meters per second.

[tex]v[/tex] - Final speed of the collided particles, measured in meters per second.

If we know that [tex]m_{A} = 4.8\times 10^{-3}\,kg[/tex], [tex]m_{B} = 7.4\times 10^{-3}\,kg[/tex], [tex]v_{A,o} = 3\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then the final speed of the system is:

[tex]v = \frac{(4.8\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(3\,\frac{m}{s} \right)+(7.4\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{4.8\times 10^{-3}\,kg+7.4\times 10^{-3}\,kg}[/tex]

[tex]v = 1.180\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

During the collision part of the initial energy is dissipated in the form of heat, which is related to the internal energy ([tex]\Delta U[/tex]), measured in joules. According to the Principle of Energy Conservation, we have the following model:

[tex]\Delta U = K_{A}+K_{B}-K[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]K_{A}[/tex], [tex]K_{B}[/tex] - Initial translational kinetic energies of each particle, measured in joules.

[tex]K[/tex] - Final translational kinetic energy of the collided particles, measured in joules.

By applying the definition of translational kinetic energy, we expand and simplify the equation above:

[tex]\Delta U = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{A}\cdot v_{A,o}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{B}\cdot v_{B,o}^{2} -\frac{1}{2}\cdot (m_{A}+m_{B})\cdot v^{2}[/tex] (3)

If we get that  [tex]m_{A} = 4.8\times 10^{-3}\,kg[/tex], [tex]m_{B} = 7.4\times 10^{-3}\,kg[/tex], [tex]v_{A,o} = 3\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]v = 1.180\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], the internal energy associated with the system is:

[tex]\Delta U = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (4.8\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(3\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+ \frac{1}{2}\cdot (7.4\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot (4.8\times 10^{-3}\,kg+7.4\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(1.180\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta U = 0.013\,J[/tex]

And the initial energy of both particles is:

[tex]E_{o} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (4.8\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(3\,\frac{m}{s}\right)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (7.4\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]E_{o} = 0.0216\,J[/tex]

Lastly, the percentage of the original kinetic energy that is convertible to internal energy is: ([tex]\Delta U = 0.013\,J[/tex], [tex]E_{o} = 0.0216\,J[/tex])

[tex]\%e = \frac{\Delta U}{E_{o}}\times 100\,\%[/tex] (4)

[tex]\%e = \frac{0.013\,J}{0.0216\,J}\times 100\,\%[/tex]

[tex]\%e = 60.185\,\%[/tex]

60.185 percent of the original kinetic energy is convertible to internal energy.

b. 79 m/s2.
c. zero m/s2.
d. 120 m/s2.
e. 110 m/s2.

Answers

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of a circular disk, r = 2 m

Angular acceleration, [tex]\alpha =2\ rad/s^2[/tex]

We need to find the tangential acceleration of a point on the edge of the disk at the instant that its angular speed is 1.0 rev/s.

Let a is the tangential acceleration. The relation between the angular acceleration and tengential acceleration. Let it is a.

[tex]a=\alpha r\\\\a=20\times 2\\\\a=40\ m/s^2[/tex]

So, the tangential acceleration is [tex]40\ m/s^2[/tex].

A solid spherical ball and a hollow spherical ball made out of the same material are released from rest at the top of a ramp. They roll down the ramp without slipping to the bottom. On what quantities does the speed of each ball at the bottom of the ramp depend?A. Radius of the ball.B. Distribution of mass within the ball.C. Mass of the ball.D. Height of the ramp.

Answers

Answer:

D. Height of the ramp.

Explanation:

The solid spherical ball is expected to have more mass than that of the hollow spherical ball. And the speed of both balls would be influenced by the gravitational force as they roll down the ramp. Thus, the masses would move at different speed.

At the bottom of the ramp, the speed of the balls can be varied by varying the height of the ramp. So that the speed of both balls depend on the height of the ramp. As the height of the ramp increases, consequently, the speed of the balls increases. And if the height of the ramp decreases, the speed of the balls decreases consequently.

b) What is the intensity, I, of the sound at a distance of 10 meters from the speaker? What is the sound intensity level, β, of the sound at a distance of 10 meters from the speaker?

c) How many deciBels do you increase walking from 20 meters away from the speaker to 10 meters away from the speaker?

c) What power output would the speaker have to put out in order to create 100 dB at a distance 20 meters from the speaker?

Answers

Answer:

A) I = 0.09947 W , β = 109 db , B) β = 116 db , β = 116 db , c) Δβ = 7 dB,

D)  P = 50.27 W

Explanation:

A) The intensity of a spherical sound wave is

          I = P / A

where A is the area of ​​the sphere where the sound is distributed

          A = 4π R²

       

we substitute

          I = P / 4πR²

let's calculate

          I = 500 / (4π 20²)

          I = 0.09947 W

to express this quantity in decibels we use relate

         β = 10 log (I / I₀)

The detectivity threshold is I₀ = 1 10⁻¹² W / m²

         β = 10 lob (0.09947 / 10⁻¹²)

         β = 10 (10.9976)

         β = 109 db

B) intensity at r = 10m

          I = 500 / (4π 10²)

          I = 0.3979 W / m²

          β = 10 log (0.3979 / 10⁻¹²)

          β = 10 (11.5997)

          β = 116 db

C) the change in intensity in decibles is

          Δβ = β₁ - β₂

          Δβ = 116 - 109

          Δβ = 7 dB

D) let's find the intensity for 100 db

          I = I₀ 10 (β / 10)

          I = 10⁻¹² 10 (100/10)

          I = 10⁻² W / m²

Thus

           P = I A

           P = I 4π R²

           P = 10⁻² 4π 20²

           P = 50.27 W

While riding a multispeed bicycle, the rider can select the radius of the rear sprocket that is fixed to the rear axle. The front sprocket of a bicycle has radius 12.0 cm. If the angular speed of the front sprocket is 0.600 rev/s, what is the radius of the rear sprocket for which the tangential speed of a point on the rim of the rear wheel will be 5.00 m/s?

Answers

Answer:

2.9 cm

Explanation:

Assuming that the rear wheel has a radius of 0.330 m

Given that

r(a) = 12 cm -> 0.12 m

w(a) = 0.6 rev/s -> 3.77 rad/s

v = 5 m/s

r(w) = 0.330 m

The speed on any point on the rim at the sprocket in the front is

v(a) = w(a).r(a) = 3.77 * 0.12 = 0.4524 m/s

Also,

v(a) = speed at any point on the chain

v(b) = speed at any point on the rim of the rear sprocket

v(a) = v(b)

where v(b) = w(b).r(b)

Recall that the speed at any point on the rear wheel is v, where

v = w(b).r(w)

5 = w(b) * 0.330

w(b) = 5/0.330

w(b) = 15.15 rad/s

On substituting this in the equation, we have

v(b) = w(b).r(b).

Remember also, that v(a) = v(b), so

0.4524 = 15.15 * r(b)

r(b) = 0.4524 / 15.15

r(b) = 0.029 m -> 2.9 cm

Therefore, the radius of the rear sprocket needed is 2.9 cm

A rocket traveling at 36.96 m/s is accelerated uniformly to 74.44 m/s over a 21.37 s interval. What is its displacement during this time?

Answers

Answer:

s = 1190.3 m = 1.19 km

Explanation:

First we find the acceleration by using first equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = 74.44 m/s

Vi = Initial Velocity = 36.96 m/s

a = acceleration = ?

t = time = 21.37 s

Therefore,

74.44 m/s = 36.96 m/s + a(21.37 s)

a = (74.44 m/s - 36.96 m/s)/21.37 s

a = 1.75 m/s²

Now, we use 2nd equation of motion to find distance covered (s):

s = Vi t + (1/2)at²

s = (36.96 m/s)(21.37 s) + (1/2)(1.75 m/s²)(21.37 s)²

s = 789.83 m + 400.47 m

s = 1190.3 m = 1.19 km

A rock dropped from a 5 m height accelerates at 10 m/s and strikes the ground 1 s later. If the rock is dropped

from a height of 2,5 m, its acceleration of fall is

Answers

Answer:

10 m/s²

Explanation:

The above question simply indicates motion under gravity.

The acceleration due to gravity (i.e acceleration of free fall) has a constant value of 10 m/s².

Whether the rock is dropped from a height of 5 m or 2.5 m, it will accelerate at 10 m/s² before striking the ground. The only thing that will be different is the time taken for the rock to strike the ground when released from both 5 m and 2.5 m.

Thus, the rock will have a constant acceleration of 10 m/s² irrespective of the height to which it was released.

Since acceleration due to gravity is a constant,  the acceleration of the rock dropped from the 5 m height is the same as that dropped from the 2.5 m height and is equal to 10 m/s²

What is the acceleration due to gravity?

Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration a body falling freely from a height above the earth surface which a body experiences due to the gravitational force of attraction of the earth on the body.

Acceleration due to gravity has a constant value which is equal to 10 m/s².

Therefore, the acceleration of the rock dropped from the 5 m height is the same as that dropped from the 2.5 m height and is equal to 10 m/s².
