In a computer-based experiment to study diffraction, the width of the central diffraction peak is 15.20 mm. The wavelength of th

e laser is 638 ????m (1 ????m = 10-. m) and the distance from the screen containing the slits to the camera screen is 68.0 cm. Calculate the slit width ( make sure all your values are meters).Which equation should I use? slit width = (2)(638*10^-9)(0.68)/(15.20*10^-3) OR slit width = (1)(638*10^-9)(0.68)/(15.20*10^-3)? please explain why.

In this diffraction experiment, the width of the central maximum peak equals 15.20 mm, and the laser wavelength is 638 nm. The distance from the camera screen to the slits measures 68.0 cm. To find the slit width, one must use the appropriate equation, considering this parameter when values are expressed in meters.

A block moves at 5 m/s in the positive x direction and hits an identical block, initially at rest. A small amount of gunpowder h
Yuliya22 [2420]

Answer:

Speeds of 1.83 m/s and 6.83 m/s

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of momentum,

mv_o=m(v_1 + v_2)where m represents mass, v_o is the initial speed before impact, v_1 and v_2 are the velocities of the impacted object after the collision and of the originally stationary object after the impact.

5m=m(v_1 +v_2)

Thus, v_1+v_2=5

After the collision, the kinetic energy doubles, therefore:

2m*(0.5mv_o)=0.5m(v_1^{2}+v_2^{2})

2v_o^{2}=v_1^{2} + v_2^{2}

Substituting the initial velocity of 5 m/s provides the equation needed to proceed.v_o

2*(5^{2})= v_1^{2} + v_2^{2}We know that v_1+v_2=5 leads to v_1=5-v_2

50=(5-v_2)^{2}+ v_2^{2}

50=25+v_2^{2}-10v_2+v_2^{2}

2v_2^{2}-10v_2-25=0

Using the quadratic formula leads us to solve for the speeds after the explosion, specifically where a=2, b=-10, and c=-25. v_2=6.83 m/s

By substituting the values, the solution yields results for the speeds of the blocks, which are ultimately 1.83 m/s and 6.83 m/s.

A uniformly charged spherical droplet of mercury has electric potential Vbig throughout the droplet. The droplet then breaks int
kicyunya [2264]

Answer:

\frac{V_{big}}{V_{small}} = n^{2/3}

Explanation:

Let the charge on the large droplet be denoted as Q.

When the radius of the droplet is R, the electric potential for the larger droplet can be expressed as:

V_{big} = \frac{KQ}{R}

If it splits into n identical droplets, let the charge of each be "q" and their radius be "r".

Applying volume conservation gives us:

\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3 = n(\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3)

r = \frac{R}{n^{1/3}}

Now, the potential for the smaller droplets is given as:

V_{small} = \frac{kq}{r}

V_{small} = \frac{K(Q/n)}{\frac{R}{n^{1/3}}}

V_{small} = \frac{1}{n^{2/3}}\frac{KQ}{R}

\frac{V_{big}}{V_{small}} = n^{2/3}

Ostrovityanka [2198]

Answer:

Explicación:

Definamos v como la velocidad lineal, ω como la velocidad angular e I como el momento de inercia del disco.

La energía cinética (lineal) = 1/2 mv²

La energía cinética rotacional = 1/2 I ω²

I = 1/2 m r² (donde m y r son la masa y el radio del disco)

La energía cinética rotacional = 1/2 x1/2 m r² ω²

= 1/4 m v² (v = r ω)

Energía total

= Energía cinética (lineal) + Energía cinética rotacional

= 1/2 mv² + 1/4 mv²

= 3/4 mv²

La relación de K E rotacional / K E total = 1/4 m v² / 3/4 mv²

= 1 /3

Por lo tanto, 1 /3 de la energía total se debe a la energía cinética rotacional.
