Answer:
R = 36.885 km
Explanation:
In order to distinguish the two planes we must use the Rayleigh criterion that establishes two distinguishable objects if in their diffraction the central maximum of one coincides with the first minimum of the other
The diffraction equation for slits is
a sin θ = m λ
the first minimum occurs for m = 1
sin θ = λ a
as the diffraction experiments the angles are very small, we approximate
sin θ = θ
θ = λ / a
This expression is for a slit, in the case of circular objects, when solving the system in polar coordinates, a numerical constant appears, leaving the expression of the form
θ = 1.22 λ / a
In this problem they give us the frequency, let's find the wavelength with the relation
c = λ f
λ = c / f
θ = 1.22 c/ f a
since they ask us for the distance between the planes, we can use the definition of radians
θ = s / R
if we assume that the distance is large, we can approximate the arc to the horizontal distance
s = x
we substitute
x / R = 1.22 c / fa
R = x f a / 1.22c
Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system
f = 9000 MHz = 9 109 Hz
a = 15 m
x = 100 m
let's calculate
R = 100 10⁹ 15 / (1.22 3 108)
R = 3.6885 10⁴ m
let's reduce to km
R = 3.6885 10¹ km
R = 36.885 km
If Superman really had x-ray vision at 0.12 nm wavelength and a 4.1 mm pupil diameter, at what maximum altitude could he distinguish villains from heroes, assuming that he needs to resolve points separated by 5.4 cm to do this?
Answer:
Maximum altitude to see(L) = 1.47 × 10⁶ m (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
wavelength (λ) = 0.12 nm = 0.12 × 10⁻⁹ m
Pupil Diameter (d) = 4.1 mm = 4 × 10⁻³ m
Separation distance (D) = 5.4 cm = 0.054 m
Find:
Maximum altitude to see(L)
Computation:
Resolving power = 1.22(λ / d)
D / L = 1.22(λ / d)
0.054 / L = 1.22 [(0.12 × 10⁻⁹) / (4 × 10⁻³ m)]
0.054 / L = 1.22 [0.03 × 10⁻⁶]
L = 0.054 / 1.22 [0.03 × 10⁻⁶]
L = 0.054 / [0.0366 × 10⁻⁶]
L = 1.47 × 10⁶
Maximum altitude to see(L) = 1.47 × 10⁶ m (Approx)
UVC light used in sterilizers, has wavelengths between 100 to 280 nm. If a certain UVC wave has a wavelength of 142.9 nm, what is the energy of one of its photons in J
Answer:
The energy of one of its photons is 1.391 x 10⁻¹⁸ J
Explanation:
Given;
wavelength of the UVC light, λ = 142.9 nm = 142.9 x 10⁻⁹ m
The energy of one photon of the UVC light is given by;
E = hf
where;
h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s
f is frequency of the light
f = c / λ
where;
c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
λ is wavelength
substitute in the value of f into the main equation;
E = hf
[tex]E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \\\\E = \frac{6.626*10^{-34} *3*10^{8}}{142.9*10^{-9}} \\\\E = 1.391*10^{-18} \ J[/tex]
Therefore, the energy of one of its photons is 1.391 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

An unstable particle at rest spontaneously breaks into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the first fragment is 3.00 10-28 kg, and that of the other is 1.86 10-27 kg. If the lighter fragment has a speed of 0.844c after the breakup, what is the speed of the heavier fragment
Answer: Speed = [tex]3.10^{-31}[/tex] m/s
Explanation: Like in classical physics, when external net force is zero, relativistic momentum is conserved, i.e.:
[tex]p_{f} = p_{i}[/tex]
Relativistic momentum is calculated as:
p = [tex]\frac{mu}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]
where:
m is rest mass
u is velocity relative to an observer
c is light speed, which is constant (c=[tex]3.10^{8}[/tex]m/s)
Initial momentum is zero, then:
[tex]p_{f}[/tex] = 0
[tex]p_{1}-p_{2}[/tex] = 0
[tex]p_{1} = p_{2}[/tex]
To find speed of the heavier fragment:
[tex]\frac{mu_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{c^{2}} } }=\frac{mu_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1.86.10^{-27}u_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }=\frac{3.10^{-28}.0.844.3.10^{8}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.844c)^{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1.86.10^{-27}u_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }=1.42.10^{-19}[/tex]
[tex]1.86.10^{-27}u_{1} = 1.42.10^{-19}.{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }[/tex]
[tex](1.86.10^{-27}u_{1})^{2} = (1.42.10^{-19}.{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } })^{2}[/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38}.(1-\frac{u_{1}^{2}}{9.10^{16}} )[/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38} -[2.02.10^{-38}(\frac{u_{1}^{2}}{9.10^{16}} )][/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38} -2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1}[/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2}+2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1} = 2.02.10^{-38}[/tex]
[tex]2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1} = 2.02.10^{-38}[/tex]
[tex]u^{2}_{1} = \frac{2.02.10^{-38}}{2.24.10^{-23}}[/tex]
[tex]u_{1} = \sqrt{9.02.10^{-62}}[/tex]
[tex]u_{1} = 3.10^{-31}[/tex]
The speed of the heavier fragment is [tex]u_{1} = 3.10^{-31}[/tex]m/s.

A car travels at 45 km/h. If the driver breaks 0.65 seconds after seeing the traffic light turn yellow, how far will the car continue to travel before it begins to slow?
Answer:
8.1 m
Explanation:
Convert km/h to m/s.
45 km/h × (1000 m/km) × (1 h / 3600 s) = 12.5 m/s
Distance = speed × time
d = (12.5 m/s) (0.65 s)
d = 8.125 m
A 750 gram grinding wheel 25.0 cm in diameter is in the shape of a uniform solid disk. (we can ignore the small hole at the center). when it is in use, it turns at a consant 220 rpm about an axle perpendicular to its face through its center. When the power switch is turned off, you observe that the wheel stops in 45.0 s with constant angular acceleration due to friction at the axle. What torque does friction exert while this wheel is slowing down?
Answer:
Torque = 0.012 N.m
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of wheel;m = 750 g = 0.75 kg
Radius of wheel;r = 25 cm = 0.25 m
Final angular velocity; ω_f = 0
Initial angular velocity; ω_i = 220 rpm
Time taken;t = 45 seconds
Converting 220 rpm to rad/s we have;
220 × 2π/60 = 22π/3 rad/s
Equation of rotational motion is;
ω_f = ω_i + αt
Where α is angular acceleration
Making α the subject, we have;
α = (ω_f - ω_i)/t
α = (0 - 22π/3)/45
α = -0.512 rad/s²
The formula for the Moment of inertia is given as;
I = ½mr²
I = (1/2) × 0.75 × 0.25²
I = 0.0234375 kg.m²
Formula for torque is;
Torque = Iα
For α, we will take the absolute value as the negative sign denotes decrease in acceleration.
Thus;
Torque = 0.0234375 × 0.512
Torque = 0.012 N.m

(a) The resistance R of the wire(b) The resistivity p, and(c) The number n of free electrons per unit volume.
Explanation:
According to Ohms Law :
V = I * R
(A) R (Resistance) = 0.022 / 0.75 = 0.03 Ohms
Also,
[tex]r = \alpha \frac{length}{area} = \alpha \frac{5.8}{3.14 \times 0.001 \times 0.001} [/tex]
(B)
[tex] \alpha(resistivity) = 1.62 \times {10}^{ - 8} [/tex]

1.7 × 10^(-5) m/s
A) R = 0.0293 ohms
B) ρ = 1.589 × 10^(-8)
C) n = 8.8 × 10^(28) electrons
This is about finding, resistance and resistivity.
We are given;Length; L = 5.8 m
Diameter; d = 2mm = 0.002 m
Radius; r = d/2 = 0.001 m
Voltage; V = 22 mv = 0.022 V
Current; I = 750 mA = 0.75 A
Area; A = πr² = 0.001²π
Drift speed; v_d = 1.7 × 10^(-5) m/s
A) Formula for resistance is;R = V/I
R = 0.022/0.75
R = 0.0293 ohms
B) formula for resistivity is given by;ρ = RA/L
ρ = (0.0293 × 0.001²π)/5.8
ρ = 1.589 × 10^(-8)
C) Formula for current density is given by;J = n•e•v_d
Where;
J = I/A = 0.75/0.001²π A/m² = 238732.44 A/m²
e is charge on an electron = 1.6 × 10^(-19) C
v_d = 1.7 × 10^(-5) m/s
n is number of free electrons per unit volume
Thus;
238732.44 = n(1.6 × 10^(-19) × 1.7 × 10^(-5))
238732.44 = (2.72 × 10^(-24))n
n = 238732.44/(2.72 × 10^(-24))
n = 8.8 × 10^(28)

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 7.60 cm^2, separated by a distance of 1.70 mm. A 25.0-V potential difference is applied to these plates. Calculate: a. the electric field between the plates b. the surface charge density c. the capacitance d. the charge on each plate.
Answer:
(a) 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m
(b) 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²
(c) 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F
(d) 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C
Explanation:
(a) For a parallel plate capacitor, the electric field E between the plates is given by;
E = V / d -----------(i)
Where;
V = potential difference applied to the plates
d = distance between these plates
From the question;
V = 25.0V
d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m
Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;
E = 25.0 / 0.0017
E = 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m
(c) The capacitance of the capacitor is given by
C = Aε₀ / d
Where
C = capacitance
A = Area of the plates = 7.60cm² = 0.00076m²
ε₀ = permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹²F/m
d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m
C = 0.00076 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² / 0.0017
C = 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F
(d) The charge, Q, on each plate can be found as follows;
Q = C V
Q = 3.9 x 10⁻¹² x 25.0
Q = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C
Now since we have found other quantities, it is way easier to find the surface charge density.
(b) The surface charge density, σ, is the ratio of the charge Q on each plate to the area A of the plates. i.e
σ = Q / A
σ = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹ / 0.00076
σ = 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²
A nearsighted person has a far point that is 4.2 m from his eyes. What focal length lenses in diopters he must use in his contacts to allow him to focus on distant objects?
Answer:
-0.24diopters
Explanation:
The lens is intended that makes an object at infinity appear to be 4.2 m away, so do=infinity, dI = - 4.2m (minus sign because image is on same side of lens as object)
So 1/do +1/di = 1/f
1/infinity + 1/-4.2 = 1/f
1/f = 1/-4.2 = -0.24diopters
If the
refractive index of benzere is 2.419,

Answer:
The number of turns in the secondary coil is 4145 turns
Explanation:
Given;
the induced emf on the primary coil, [tex]E_p[/tex] = 95 V
the induced emf on the secondary coil, [tex]E_s[/tex] = 875 V
the number of turns in the primary coil, [tex]N_p[/tex] = 450 turns
the number of turns in the secondary coil, [tex]N_s[/tex] = ?
The number of turns in the secondary coil is calculated as;
[tex]\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{E_p}{E_s}[/tex]
[tex]N_s = \frac{N_pE_s}{E_p} \\\\N_s = \frac{450*875}{95} \\\\N_s = 4145 \ turns[/tex]
Therefore, the number of turns in the secondary coil is 4145 turns.

To clearly see an image, the wavelength used must be at most 1/4 of the size of the object that is to be imaged. What frequency is needed to image a fetus at 8 weeks of gestation that is 1.6 cm long?
A. 380 kHz
B. 3.8 kHz
C. 85 kHz
D. 3.8 MHz
Answer:
380 kHz
Explanation:
The speed of sound is taken as 1500 m/s
The length of the fetus is 1.6 cm long
The condition is that the wavelength used must be at most 1/4 of the size of the object that is to be imaged.
For this 1.6 cm baby, the wavelength must not exceed
λ = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of 1.6 cm = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x 1.6 cm = 0.4 cm =
0.4 cm = 0.004 m this is the wavelength of the required ultrasonic sound.
we know that
v = λf
where v is the speed of a wave
λ is the wavelength of the wave
f is the frequency of the wave
f = v/λ
substituting values, we have
f = 1500/0.004 = 375000 Hz
==> 375000/1000 = 375 kHz ≅ 380 kHz
What happens to the deflection of the galvanometer needle (due to moving the magnet) when you increase the number of loops
Answer:
If the magnet is moved, the galvanometer needle will deflect, showing that current is flowing through the coil which will increase total induced electromotive force
Explanation:
galvanometer is an instrument that can detect and measure small current in an electrical circuit.
If the magnet is moved, the galvanometer needle will deflect, showing that current is flowing through the coil. If it is move in a way into the coil,the needle deflect in that way and if it move in another way, it will deflect in the other way.
The total induced emf is equal to the emf induced in each loop by the changing magnetic flux, then multiplied by the number of loops and an increase in the number of loops will cause increase in the total induced emf.
The linear density rho in a rod 3 m long is 8/ x + 1 kg/m, where x is measured in meters from one end of the rod. Find the average density rhoave of the rod.
Answer:
The average density of the rod is 1.605 kg/m.
Explanation:
The average density of the rod is given by:
[tex] \rho = \frac{m}{l} [/tex]
To find the average density we need to integrate the linear density from x₁ = 0 to x₂ = 3, as follows:
[tex] \int_{0}^{3} \frac{8}{3(x + 1)}dx [/tex]
[tex] \rho = \frac{8}{3} \int_{0}^{3} \frac{1}{(x + 1)}dx [/tex] (1)
Using u = x+1 → du = dx → u₁= x₁+1 = 0+1 = 1 and u₂ = x₂+1 = 3+1 = 4
By entering the values above into (1), we have:
[tex] \rho = \frac{8}{3} \int_{0}^{3} \frac{1}{u}du [/tex]
[tex]\rho = \frac{8}{3}*log(u)|_{1}^{4} = \frac{8}{3}[log(4) - log(1)] = 1.605 kg/m[/tex]
Therefore, the average density of the rod is 1.605 kg/m.

[tex]E = c * B[/tex]
Where c is the speed of light with value [tex]c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]
So
[tex]E = 3.0 *10^{8} * 17.5 *10^{-9}[/tex]
[tex]E = 5.25 V/m[/tex]
The peak magnitude of the electric field will be "5.25 V/m".
Magnetic fieldAccording to the question,
Magnetic field's peak magnitude, B = 17.5 nT or,
= 17.5 × 10⁻⁹ T
Speed of light, c = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s
We know the relation,
→ E = c × B
By substituting the values, we get
= 3.0 × 10⁸ × 17.5 × 10⁻⁹
= 5.25 V/m
Thus the above approach is appropriate.

You're conducting an experiment on another planet. You drop a rock from a height of 1 m and it hits the ground 0.4 seconds later. What is acceleration due to gravity on the planet ?
Answer:
Here,
v (final velocity) = 0
u (initial velocity) = u
a = ?
s = 1m
t = 0.4s
using the first equation of motion,
0 = u + 0.4a
= -0.4a = u
using the second equation of motion:
1 = 0.4u + 0.08a
from the bold equation
1 = 0.4(-0.4a) + 0.08a
1 = -0.16a + 0.08a
1 = -0.08a
a = -1/0.08
a = -100/8
a = -12.5 m/s/s

If one could transport a simple pendulum of constant length from the Earth's surface to the Moon's, where acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth (1/6) that on the Earth, by what factor would be the pendulum frequency be changed
Answer:
The frequency will change by a factor of 0.4
Explanation:
T = 2(pi)*sqrt(L/g)
Since g(moon) = (1/6)g(earth), the period would change by sqrt[1/(1/6)] = sqrt(6) ~ 2.5 times longer on the moon. Since the period & frequency are inverses, the frequency would be 1/2.5 or 0.4 times shorter on the moon.
When a mercury thermometer is heated, the mercury expands and rises in the thin tube of glass. What does this indicate about the relative rates of expansion for mercury and glass
Answer:
This means that mercury has a higher or faster expansion rate than glass
Explanation:
This is because When a container expands, the reservoir in the glass expands at the same rate as the glass. Thus, if there is something in a glass and both expand at the same rate, they have no change - but if the contents expand faster, they will fill the container to a higher level, and if the contents expand slower, they will fill the container to a lower level (relative to the new size of the container).
The roller coaster car reaches point A of the loop with speed of 20 m/s, which is increasing at the rate of 5 m/s2. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration at A if pA
Answer and Explanation:
Data provided as per the question is as follows
Speed at point A = 20 m/s
Acceleration at point C = [tex]5 m/s^2[/tex]
[tex]r_A = 25 m[/tex]
The calculation of the magnitude of the acceleration at A is shown below:-
Centripetal acceleration is
[tex]a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}[/tex]
now we will put the values into the above formula
= [tex]\frac{20^2}{25}[/tex]
After solving the above equation we will get
[tex]= 16 m/s^2[/tex]
Tangential acceleration is
[tex]= \sqrt{ac^2 + at^2} \\\\ = \sqrt{16^2 + 5^2}\\\\ = 16.703 m/s^2[/tex]
The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Which statement about those waves is true?
OA. The mechanical waves reach Earth, while the electromagnetic waves do not.
OB. The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not.
OC. Both the mechanical waves and the electromagnetic waves reach Earth.
OD. Neither the mechanical waves nor the electromagnetic waves reach Earth.
Answer: The correct answer for this question is letter (B) The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not. The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Space, between the sun and the earth is a nearly vacuum. So mechanical wave can not spread out in the vacuum.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not
If mirror M2 in a Michelson interferometer is moved through 0.233 mm, a shift of 792 bright fringes occurs. What is the wavelength of the light producing the fringe pattern?
Answer:
The wavelength is [tex]\lambda = 589 nm[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The distance of the mirror shift is [tex]k = 0.233 \ mm = 0.233*10^{-3} \ m[/tex]
The number of fringe shift is n = 792
Generally the wavelength producing this fringes is mathematically represented as
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ 2 * k }{ n }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ 2 * 0.233*10^{-3} }{ 792 }[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = 5.885 *10^{-7} \ m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = 589 nm[/tex]
