How wide is the central diffraction peak on a screen 2.20 mm behind a 0.0328-mmmm-wide slit illuminated by 588-nmnm light?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]y = 0.0394 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The  distance of the screen is  [tex]D = 2.20 \ m[/tex]

       The distance of separation of the slit is  [tex]d = 0.0328 \ mm = 0.0328*10^{-3} \ m[/tex]

        The  wavelength of light is  [tex]\lambda = 588 \ nm = 588 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

Generally the condition for constructive interference is

            [tex]dsin\theta = n * \lambda[/tex]

=>        [tex]\theta = sin^{-1} [ \frac{ n * \lambda }{d } ][/tex]

here n = 1 because we are considering the central diffraction peak

=>        [tex]\theta = sin^{-1} [ \frac{ 1 * 588*10^{-9} }{0.0328*10^{-3} } ][/tex]

=>       [tex]\theta = 1.0274 ^o[/tex]

Generally the width of central diffraction peak on a screen is mathematically evaluated as

           [tex]y = D tan (\theta )[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]y = 2.20 * tan (1.0274)[/tex]

        [tex]y = 0.0394 \ m[/tex]

a. How much heat would be required to melt this iceberg (assumed to be at 0°C) into liquid water at 0°C?
b. The annual U.S. energy consumption is 1.2 x 10^20 J. If all the U.S. energy was used to melt the ice, how many days would it take to do so?

Answers

Answer:

a

  [tex]Q = 5.34 *10^{19} \ J[/tex]

b

   [tex]T = 0.445 * 365 = 162. 413 \ days[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  area of  Manhattan is  [tex]a_k = 87.46 *10^{6} \ m^2[/tex]

      The area of the ice is [tex]a_i = 4* 87.46 *10^{6 } = 3.498 *10^{8}\ m^2[/tex]

        The  thickness is  [tex]t = 500 \ m \\[/tex]

       

Generally the volume of the ice is mathematically represented is

         [tex]V = a_i * t[/tex]

substituting value

         [tex]V = 500 * 3.498*10^{8}[/tex]

         [tex]V = 1.75 *10^{11}\ m^3[/tex]

Generally the mass of the ice is

       [tex]m_i = \rho_i * V[/tex]

Here [tex]\rho_i[/tex] is the density of ice the value is  [tex]\rho _i = 916.7 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

=>   [tex]m_i = 916.7 * 1.75*10^{11}[/tex]

=>    [tex]m_i = 1.60 *10^{14} \ kg[/tex]

Generally the energy needed for the ice to melt is mathematically represented as

        [tex]Q = m _i * H_f[/tex]

Where [tex]H_f[/tex] is the latent heat of fusion of ice and the value is  [tex]H_f = 3.33*10^{5} \ J/kg[/tex]

=>    [tex]Q = 1.60 *10^{14} * 3.33*10^{5}[/tex]

=>    [tex]Q = 5.34 *10^{19} \ J[/tex]

Considering part b

  We are told that the annual energy consumption is  [tex]G = 1.2*10^{20 } \ J / year[/tex]

So  the time taken to melt the ice is

      [tex]T = \frac{ 5.34 *10^{19}}{ 1.2 *10^{20}}[/tex]

        [tex]T = 0.445 \ years[/tex]

converting to days

      [tex]T = 0.445 * 365 = 162. 413 \ days[/tex]

An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 520 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel slits separated by a distance (between centers) of 0.440 mm.
1. If the slits are very narrow, what would be the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima?
2. What would be the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima in this case?
3. Let the slits have a width 0.310 mm . In terms of the intensity I0 at the center of the central maximum, what is the intensity at the angular position of θ1?
4. What is the intensity at the angular position of θ2?

Answers

Answer:

1) θ = 0.00118 rad, 2)  θ = 0.00236 rad , 3) I / I₀ = 0.1738, 4)  I / Io = 0.216

Explanation:

In the double-slit interference phenomenon it is explained for constructive interference by the equation

          d sin θ = m λ

1) the first order maximum occurs for m = 1

           sin θ = λ  / d

           θ = sin⁻¹ λ  / d

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

           λ  = 520 nm = 520 10⁻⁹  θ = 0.00118 radm

           d = 0.440 mm = 0.440 10⁻³ m ³

let's calculate

           θ = sin⁻¹ (520 10⁻⁹ / 0.44 10⁻³)

            θ = sin⁻¹ (1.18 10⁻³)

            θ = 0.00118 rad

2) the second order maximum occurs for m = 2

            θ = sin⁻¹ (m λ  / d)

            θ = sin⁻¹ (2 5¹20 10⁻⁹ / 0.44 10⁻³)

            θ = 0.00236 rad

3) To calculate the intensity of the interference spectrum, the diffraction phenomenon must be included, so the equation remains

          I = I₀ cos² (π d sin θ /λ ) sinc² (pi b sin θ /λ )

where the function sinc = sin x / x

and b is the width of the slits

we caption the values

             x = π 0.310 10⁻³ sin 0.00118 / 520 10⁻⁹)

             x = 2.21

            I / I₀ = cos² (π 0.44 10⁻³ sin 0.00118 / 520 10⁻⁹) (sin (2.21) /2.21)²

remember angles are in radians

            I / I₀ = cos² (3.0945) [0.363] 2

            I / I₀ = 0.9978 0.1318

            I / I₀ = 0.1738

4) the maximum second intensity is

            I / I₀ = cos² (π d sinθ / λ) sinc² (πb sin θ /λ)

            x =π 0.310 10⁻³ sin 0.00236 / 520 10⁻⁹)

            x = 4.41

            I / Io = cos² (π 0.44 10⁻³ sin 0.00236 / 520 10⁻⁹) (sin 4.41 / 4.41)²

            I / Io = cos² 6.273    0.216

            I / Io = 0.216

The skin and structure of the balloon has a mass of 950 kg. Neglect the buoyant force on the cargo volume itself. Determine the largest mass of cargo the balloon can lift. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answers

volume of balloon

= 4/3 T R3

= 4/3 x 3.14 x 6.953

= 1405.47 m3

uplift force

= volume of balloon x density of air x 9.8

= = 1405.47 x 1.29 x 9.8

= 1813.05 x 9.8 N

weight of helium gas

= volume of balloon x density of helium x

9.8

= 1405.47 x .179 x 9.8

= 251.58 x 9.8 N

Weight of other mass = 930 x 9.8 N Total weight acting downwards

= 251.58 x 9.8 +930 x 9.8

= 1181.58 x 9.8 N

If W be extra weight the uplift can balance

1181.58 × 9.8 + W × 9.8 = 1813.05 * 9.8

The same force is applied to two hoops. The hoops have the same mass, but the larger hoop has twice the radius. How are the angular accelerations of the hoops related

Answers

Answer:

The angular accelerations of the hoops are related by the following equation [tex]\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex].

Explanation:

Net force on the hoop is given by;

[tex]F_{net} = ma[/tex]

where;

a is linear acceleration

m is the mass

Net torque on the hoop is given by;

[tex]\tau_{net} =I\alpha[/tex]

where;

I is moment of inertia

α is the angular acceleration

But, τ = Fr

[tex]Fr = I \alpha\\\\\alpha = \frac{Fr}{I} \\\\\alpha = \frac{Fr}{mr^2} \\\\\alpha = \frac{F}{mr} \\\\\alpha = \frac{1}{r} (\frac{F}{m} )\\\\(since\ the \ force\ and \ mass \ are \ the \ same, \frac{F}{m} = constant=k)\\\\ \alpha = \frac{k}{r}\\\\k = \alpha r[/tex]

[tex]\alpha _1 r_1= \alpha_2 r_2[/tex]

let the angular acceleration of the smaller hoop = α₁

let the radius of the smaller hoop = r₁

then, the radius of the larger loop, r₂ = 2r₁

let the angular acceleration of the larger hoop = α₂

[tex]\alpha _1 r_1= \alpha_2 r_2\\\\\alpha_2= \frac{ \alpha _1 r_1}{r_2} \\\\\alpha_2=\frac{\alpha _1 r_1}{2r_1} \\\\\alpha_2= \frac{\alpha _1}{2} \\\\\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex]

Therefore, the angular accelerations of the hoops are related by the following equation [tex]\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex]

Recall the relationship between the period (T) of a pendulum and its length (L) when it swings under  an acceleration of gravity g:

[tex]L=\frac{g}{4\,\pi^2} \,T^2[/tex]

a) Then, given that we know the period (2.0 seconds), and the pendulum's length (L=0.993 m), we can determine g at that location:

[tex]g=\frac{4\,\pi^2\,L}{T^2}\\g=\frac{4\,\pi^2\,0.993}{(2)^2}\\g=\pi^2\,(0.993)\,\frac{m}{s^2} \\g=9.8005171\,\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

b) for this value of g, when the pendulum is shortened to 0.970 m, the period becomes:

g One of the harmonics in an open-closed tube has frequency of 500 Hz. The next harmonic has a frequency of 700 Hz. Assume that the speed of sound in this problem is 340 m/s. a. What is the length of the tube

Answers

Answer:

The length of the tube is 85 cm

Explanation:

Given;

speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

first harmonic of open-closed tube is given by;

N----->A , L= λ/₄

λ₁ = 4L

v = Fλ

F = v / λ

F₁ = v/4L

Second harmonic of open-closed tube is given by;

L = N-----N + N-----A, L = (³/₄)λ

[tex]\lambda = \frac{4L}{3}\\\\ F= \frac{v}{\lambda}\\\\F_2 = \frac{3v}{4L}[/tex]

Third harmonic of open-closed tube is given by;

L = N------N + N-----N + N-----A, L = (⁵/₄)λ

[tex]\lambda = \frac{4L}{5}\\\\ F= \frac{v}{\lambda}\\\\F_3 = \frac{5v}{4L}[/tex]

The difference between second harmonic and first harmonic;

[tex]F_2 -F_1 = \frac{3v}{4L} - \frac{v}{4L}\\\\F_2 -F_1 = \frac{2v}{4L} \\\\F_2 -F_1 =\frac{v}{2L}[/tex]

The difference between third harmonic and second harmonic;

[tex]F_3 -F_2 = \frac{5v}{4L} - \frac{3v}{4L}\\\\F_3 -F_2 = \frac{2v}{4L} \\\\F_3 -F_2 =\frac{v}{2L}[/tex]

Thus, the difference between successive harmonic of open-closed tube is

v / 2L.

[tex]700H_z- 500H_z= \frac{v}{2L} \\\\200 = \frac{v}{2L}\\\\L = \frac{v}{2*200} \\\\L = \frac{340}{2*200}\\\\L = 0.85 \ m\\\\L = 85 \ cm[/tex]

Therefore, the length of the tube is 85 cm

A professor, with dumbbells in his hands and holding his arms out, is spinning on a turntable with an angular velocity. What happens after he pulls his arms inwards

Answers

Answer:

His angular velocity will increase.

Explanation:

According to the conservation of rotational momentum, the initial angular momentum of a system must be equal to the final angular momentum of the system.

The angular momentum of a system = [tex]I[/tex]'ω'

where

[tex]I[/tex]' is the initial rotational inertia

ω' is the initial angular velocity

the rotational inertia = [tex]mr'^{2}[/tex]

where m is the mass of the system

and r' is the initial radius of rotation

Note that the professor does not change his position about the axis of rotation, so we are working relative to the dumbbells.

we can see that with the mass of the dumbbells remaining constant, if we reduce the radius of rotation of the dumbbells to r, the rotational inertia will reduce to [tex]I[/tex].

From

[tex]I[/tex]'ω' = [tex]I[/tex]ω

since [tex]I[/tex] is now reduced, ω will be greater than ω'

therefore, the angular velocity increases.

Explanation:

volume of water being lifted

= π r² h , where r is radius of cylinder and h is height of cylinder

= 3.14 x5² x 10

= 785 m³

mass of water = 785 x 10³ kg

mass of this much of water is lifted so that its centre of mass is lifted by height

10 / 2 = 5m .

So work done = mgh , m is mass of water , h is displacement of centre of mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

= 785 x 10³ x 9.8 x 5

= 38.465 x 10⁶ J  

A 300 MWe (electrical power output) Power Plant having a thermal efficiency of 40% is cooled by sea water. Due to environmental regulations the seawater can only increase temperature by 5 C during the process. How much sea water (minimum) must be used in kg/s for cooling if the plant operates at it's rated capacity?

Answers

Answer:

m = 22,877 kg / s

Explanation:

Let's solve this exercise in parts, first look for the amount of heat generated by the plant and then the amount of water to dissipate this heat

The plant generates a power of 300 MW at a rate of 40%, let's use a direct ratio rule to find the heat. If the power is 400 MW it corresponds to 40%, what heat (Q) corresponds to the other 60%

           Q = 300 60% / 40%

           Q = 450 MW

having the amount of heat generated we can use the calorimeter equation,

           Q = m [tex]c_{e}[/tex] [tex](T_{f} - T_{o})[/tex]

            m = Q / c_{e} (T_{f} - T_{o})

let's use the maximum temperature change allowed

           (T_{f} - T_{o}) = 5

the specific heat of sea water is 3934 J / kg ºC, note that it is less than that of pure water, due to the salts dissolved in sea water

     

power and energy are related

              W = Q / t

               Q = W t

             

let's calculate

             m = 450 10⁶ / (3934 5)

             m = 22,877 kg / s

A swimmer is treading water with their head above the surface of a pool and sees a penny at the bottom of the pool 5.0 mm below. How deep does the coin appear to be? (Index of refraction of water = 1.33) [Conceptual note: Does the coin appear to be shallower or deeper?]

Answers

Answer:

The  apparent depth is  [tex]D' = 0.00376 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  depth of the water is  [tex]D = 5.0 \ mm = 5.0 *10^{-3} \ m[/tex]

      The  refractive index of water is  [tex]n = 1.33[/tex]

     

Generally the apparent depth of the coin is mathematically represented as

          [tex]D' = D * [\frac{ n_a}{n} ][/tex]

Here  [tex]n_a[/tex]  is the refractive index of  air the value is  [tex]n_a = 1[/tex]

So

        [tex]D' = 5.0 *10^{-3} * [\frac{1}{1.33} ][/tex]

        [tex]D' = 0.00376 \ m[/tex]

The apparent depth will be 0.00376 m.

What is an index of refraction?

The index of refraction of a substance also known as the refraction index is a dimensionless quantity that specifies how quickly light passes through it in optics.

d is the depth of the water =5.0 mm =5.0 ×10⁻³

n is the refractive index of water =1.33

[tex]\rm n_a[/tex] is the refractive index of wire=1

The apparent depth of the coin is given as;

[tex]\rm D'=D \times \frac{n_a}{n} \\\\ \rm D'=5.0 \times 10^{-3} \times \frac{1}{1.33} \\\\ \rm D'=0.00376 \ m[/tex]

Hence the apparent depth will be 0.00376 m.

If an electromagnetic wave has components Ey = E0 sin(kx - ωt) and Bz = B0 sin(kx - ωt), in what direction is it traveling?

Answers

Answer:

Its traveling in the +x direction

Explanation:

The E-field is in the +y-direction, and the B-field is in the +z-direction, so it must be moving along the +x-direction, since the E-field, B-field and the direction of moving are all at right angles to each other.

The electromagnetic wave is travelling in the +x direction.

Electromagnetic waves are waves formed as a result of vibrations between an electric field and a magnetic field.

Given that:

Ey = E0 sin(kx - ωt)

Hence the electric field is moving in the +y direction.

Also, Bz = B0 sin(kx - ωt)

Hence the magnetic field is moving in the +z direction

Electric fields and magnetic fields (E and B) in an EM wave are perpendicular to each other and are also perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

Therefore the direction of the wave is travelling in the +x direction.

A generator consists of 1000 turns of wire around a coil of area 10cm2 (0.0010m 2 ). Calculate the peak output voltage of this generator when operating at 100 cycles/second in a 0.50 tesla field.

Answers

Answer:

The peak output voltage of this generator is 314.2 V.

Explanation:

Given;

the number of turns of the coil, N = 1000 turns

area of the coil, A = 0.001 m²

angular frequency of the coil, f = 100 cycles/seconds

magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 0.5 T

The peak output voltage of this generator is given by;

E = NBAω

Where;

ω is the angular velocity = 2πf

E = NBA(2πf)

E = 1000 x 0.5 x 0.001(2 x π x 100)

E = 314.2 V

Therefore, the peak output voltage of this generator is 314.2 V.

?a wire is stretched 30% what is the percentage change in resistance ​

Answers

Answer:

The percentage change in resistance of the wire is 69%.

Explanation:

Resistance of a wire can be determined by,

R = (ρl) ÷ A

Where R is its resistance, l is the length of the wire, A its cross sectional area and ρ its resistivity.

When the wire is stretched, its length and area changes but its volume and resistivity remains constant.

[tex]l_{o}[/tex] = 1.3l, and [tex]A_{o}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{A}{1.3}[/tex]

So that;

[tex]R_{o}[/tex] = (ρ[tex]l_{o}[/tex]) ÷ [tex]A_{o}[/tex] = (ρ × 1.3l) ÷ ([tex]\frac{A}{1.3}[/tex])

    = (1.3lρ) ÷ ([tex]\frac{A}{1.3}[/tex])

    = [tex](1.3)^{2}[/tex] × [(ρl) ÷ A]

   = 1.69R               (∵ R = (ρl) ÷ A)

[tex]R_{o}[/tex] = 1.69R

Where [tex]R_{o}[/tex] is the new resistance, [tex]l_{o}[/tex] is the new length, and [tex]A_{o}[/tex] is the new area after stretching the wire.

The change in resistance of the wire = [tex]R_{o}[/tex] - R

                                      = 1.69R  - 1R

                                      = 0.69R

The percentage change in resistance = [tex]\frac{0.69R}{R}[/tex] × 100

                                                               = 0.69 × 100

                                                              = 69%

The percentage change in resistance of the wire is 69%.
