Answer:

The wavelength of the incident light, \lambda = 612 nm

Given:

Distance from the slit to the screen, x = 5.00 m

Slit width, d = 0.180 mm

Fringe width, \beta = 1.70 cm = 0.017 m

Solution:

To determine the wavelength of the incident light, \lambda:

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

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

\lambda = \frac{0.017\times 0.180\times 10^{- 3}}{5} = 6.12\times 10^{- 7}m = 612 nm

\lambda = 612 nm

An axle passes through a pulley. Each end of the axle has a string that is tied to a support. A third string is looped many time
Keith_Richards [2256]

Answer:

ΔL = MmRgt / (2m + M)

Explanation:

The system starts from rest, so the change in angular momentum correlates directly to its final angular momentum.

ΔL = L − L₀

ΔL = Iω − 0

ΔL = ½ MR²ω

To determine the angular velocity ω, begin by drawing a free body diagram for both the pulley and the block.

For the block, two forces act: the weight force mg downward and tension force T upward.

For the pulley, three forces are present: weight force Mg down, a reaction force up, and tension force T downward.

For the sum of forces in the -y direction on the block:

∑F = ma

mg − T = ma

T = mg − ma

For the sum of torques on the pulley:

∑τ = Iα

TR = (½ MR²) (a/R)

T = ½ Ma

Substituting gives:

mg − ma = ½ Ma

2mg − 2ma = Ma

2mg = (2m + M) a

a = 2mg / (2m + M)

The angular acceleration of the pulley is:

αR = 2mg / (2m + M)

α = 2mg / (R (2m + M))

Finally, the angular velocity after time t is:

ω = αt + ω₀

ω = 2mg / (R (2m + M)) t + 0

ω = 2mgt / (R (2m + M))

Substituting into the previous equations gives:

ΔL = ½ MR² × 2mgt / (R (2m + M))

ΔL = MmRgt / (2m + M)

1. Use Coulomb’s Law (equation below) to calculate the approximate force felt by an electron at point A in the schematic below.
Keith_Richards [2256]

Answer:

Explanation:

The data indicates that point A is located midway between two charges.

To calculate the electric field at point A, we begin with the field produced by charge -Q ( 6e⁻ ) at A:

= 9 x 10⁹ x 6 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / (2.5)² x 10⁻⁴

= 13.82 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

This field points towards Q⁻.

A similar field will arise from the charge Q⁺, but it will direct away from Q⁺ toward Q⁻.

To find the resultant field, we add these contributions:

= 2 x 13.82 x 10⁻⁶

= 27.64 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

For the force acting on an electron placed at A:

= charge x field

= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 27.64 x 10⁻⁶

= 44.22 x 10⁻²⁵ N

A very small round ball is located near a large solid sphere of uniform density. The force that the large sphere exerts on the b
Softa [2029]

Respuesta:

Opción e

Explicación:

La Ley de Gravitación Universal indica que toda masa puntual atrae a otra masa puntual en el universo con una fuerza que se dirige en línea recta entre los centros de masa de ambos, siendo esta fuerza proporcional a las masas de los objetos y inversamente proporcional a su separación. Esta fuerza atractiva siempre es dirigida del uno hacia el otro. La ley es aplicable a objetos de cualquier masa, sin importar su tamaño. Dos objetos grandes pueden ser considerados masas puntuales si la distancia entre ellos es considerablemente mayor que sus dimensiones o si presentan simetría esférica. En tales casos, la masa de cada objeto puede ser modelada como una masa puntual en su centro de masa.

La misma fuerza actúa sobre ambas bolas.

A spin bike has a flywheel in two parts—a 12.5 kg disk with radius 0.23 m, and a 7.0 kg ring with mass concentrated at the outer
Keith_Richards [2256]

Response:

Clarification:

Provided

weight of disk m=12.5 kg

diameter of disc R=0.23 m

weight of ring m_r=7 kg

Force F=9.7 N

N=180 rpm

\omega =\frac{2\pi N}{60}

\omega =6\pi rad/s

Overall moment of inertia

=Disc's moment of inertia +Ring's Moment of Inertia

=0.5\cdot 12.5\times 0.23^2+7\times 0.23^2

=13.25\times 0.23^2=0.7009 kg-m^2

At this point, Torque is T=F\times R=I\cdot \alpha

9.7\times 0.23=0.7\times \alpha

\alpha =3.18 rad/s^2

Utilizing \omega _f=\omega +\alpha t

\omega _f=0 in this scenario

0=6\pi -3.18\times t

t=\frac{6\pi }{3.18}

t=5.92 s

Several charges in the neighborhood of point P produce an electric potential of 6.0 kV (relative to zero at infinity) and an ele
ValentinkaMS [2425]

Answer:

0.018 J

Explanation:

The work required to bring the charge from infinity to the point P is equal to the change in its electric potential energy. This can be expressed as

W = q \Delta V

where

q=3.0 \mu C = 3.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C represents the charge's magnitude

and \Delta V = 6.0 kV = 6000 V signifies the potential difference between point P and infinity.

After substituting into the formula, we arrive at

W=(3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(6000 V)=0.018 J
