Answer:
Increasing the number of slits not only makes the diffraction maximum sharper, but also much more intense. If a 1 mm diameter laser beam strikes a 600 line/mm grating, then it covers 600 slits and the resulting line intensity is 90,000 x that of a double slit. Such a multiple-slit is called a diffraction grating.

The buoyant force on an object placed in a liquid is (a) always equal to the volume of the liquid displaced. (b) always equal to the weight of the object. (c) always equal to the weight of the liquid displaced. (d) always less than the volume of the liquid displaced.
Answer:
(c) always equal to the weight of the liquid displaced.
Explanation:
Archimedes principle (also called physical law of buoyancy) states that when an object is completely or partially immersed in a fluid (liquid, e.t.c), it experiences an upthrust (or buoyant force) whose magnitude is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by that object.
Therefore, from this principle the best option is C - always equal to the weight of the liquid displaced.
To understand the standard formula for a sinusoidal traveling wave.

λ = 2π / k
f = w / 2π
v = 2π /k w /2π
v = w / k
A certain dam generates 120 MJ of mechanical (hydroelectric) energy each minute. If the conversion from mechanical to electrical energy is then 15% efficient, what is the dam's electrical power output in W?
Answer:
electric energy ( power ) = 300000 W
Explanation:
given data
mechanical (hydroelectric) energy = 120 MJ/min = 2000000 J/s
efficiency = 15 % = 0.15
solution
we know that Efficiency of electric engine is expression as
Efficiency = Mechanical energy ÷ electric energy ......................1
and here dam electrical power output is
put here value in equation 1
electric energy ( power ) = Efficiency × Mechanical energy ( power )
electric energy ( power ) = 0.15 × 2000000 J/s
electric energy ( power ) = 300000 W
You walk into an elevator, step onto a scale, and push the "down" button to go directly from the tenth floor to the first floor. You also recall that your normal weight is w= 635 N. If the elevator has an initial acceleration of magnitude 2.45 m/s2, what does the scale read? Express your answer in newtons.
Answer: 479. 425 N
Explanation: the calculation of a body in an elevator obeys Newton law. When it is accelerating upward, the scale reading is greater than the true weight of the person.
It is given by N= m(g+a)
When it is accelerating downward, the scale reading is less than the true weight.
It so given by N = m(g-a)
The answer to the above questions is in the attached photo
Answer:
the scale will read 476.414 N
Explanation:
Weight = 635 N
mass = (weight) ÷ (acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/^2)
mass m = 635 ÷ 9.81 = 64.729 kg
initial acceleration of the elevator a = 2.45 m/s^2
the force produced by the acceleration of the elevator downwards = ma
your body inertia force try to counteract this force, by a force equal and opposite to the direction of this force, leading to an apparent weight loss
apparent weight = weight - ma
apparent weight = 635 - (64.729 x 2.45)
apparent weight = 635 - 158.586 = 476.414 N

When moving to a new apartment, you rent a truck and create a ramp with a 244 cm long piece of plywood. The top of the moving ramp lies on the edge of the truck bed at a height of 115 cm. You load your textbooks into a wooden box at the bottom of the ramp (the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and ramp is = 0.2). Then you and a few friends give the box a quick push and it starts to slide up the ramp. A) What angle is made by the ramp and the ground?B) Unfortunately, after letting go, the box only tables 80cm up the ramp before it starts coming back down! What speed was the box initially traveling with just after you stopped pushing it?
Answer:
A) θ = 28.1º , B) v = 2.47 m / s
Explanation:
A) The angle of the ramp can be found using trigonometry
sin θ = y / L
Φ = sin⁻¹ y / L
θ = sin⁻¹ (115/244)
θ = 28.1º
B) For this pate we can use the relationship between work and kinetic energy
W =ΔK
where the work is
W = -fr x
the negative sign is due to the fact that the friction force closes against the movement
Lavariacion of energy cineta is
ΔEm = ½ m v² - mgh
-fr x = ½ m v² - m gh
the friction force has the equation
fr = very N
at the highest part there is no speed and we take the origin from the lowest part of the ramp
To find the friction force we use Newton's second law. Where one axis is parallel to the ramp and the other is perpendicular
Axis y . perpendicular
N- Wy = 0
cos tea = Wy / W
Wy = W cos treaa
N = mg cos tea
we substitute
- (very mg cos tea) x = ½ m v²2 - mgh
v2 = m (gh- very g cos tea x)
let's calculate
v = Ra (9.8 0.80 - 0.2 9.8 0.0 cos 28.1)
v = RA (7.84 -1.729)
v = 2.47 m / s

Check Your UnderstandingSuppose the radius of the loop-the-loop inExample 7.9is 15 cm and thetoy car starts from rest at a height of 45 cm above the bottom. What is its speed at the top of the loop
Answer:
v = 1.7 m/s
Explanation:
By applying conservation of energy principle in this situation, we know that:
Loss in Potential Energy of Car = Gain in Kinetic Energy of Car
mgΔh = (1/2)mv²
2gΔh = v²
v = √(2gΔh)
where,
v = velocity of car at top of the loop = ?
g = 9.8 m/s²
Δh = change in height = 45 cm - Diameter of Loop
Δh = 45 cm - 30 cm = 15 cm = 0.15 m
Therefore,
v = √(2)(9.8 m/s²)(0.15 m)
v = 1.7 m/s
The pressure exerted by a phonograph needle on a record is surprisingly large. If the equivalent of 0.600 g is supported by a needle, the tip of which is a circle 0.240 mm in radius, what pressure is exerted on the record in N/m2?
Answer:
[tex]P=3.25x10^{4}\frac{N}{m^2}[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, since pressure is defined as the force applied over a surface:
[tex]P=\frac{F}{A}[/tex]
We can associate the force with the weight of the needle computed by using the acceleration of the gravity:
[tex]F=0.600g*\frac{1kg}{1000g}*9.8\frac{m}{s^2} =5.88x10^{-3}N[/tex]
And the area of the the tip (circle) in meters:
[tex]A=\pi r^2=\pi (0.240mm)^2=\pi (0.240mm*\frac{1m}{1000mm} )^2\\\\A=1.81x10^{-7}m^2[/tex]
Thus, the pressure exerted on the record turns out:
[tex]P=\frac{5.88x10^{-3}N}{1.81x10^{-7}m^2} \\\\P=3.25x10^{4}\frac{N}{m^2}[/tex]
Which is truly a large value due to the tiny area on which the pressure is exerted.
Best regards.
Based on what you know about electricity, hypothesize about how series resistors would affect current flow. What would you expect the effective resistance of two equal resistors in series to be, compared to the resistance of a single resistor?
Answer:
Effective resistance of two equal resistors in series is twice that of a single resistor and in essence will reduce the amount of current flowing in the circuit.
Explanation:
When two resistors are connected in series, their effective resistance is the sum of their individual resistances. For example, given two resistors of resistance values R₁ and R₂, their effective resistance, Rₓ is given by;
Rₓ = R₁ + R₂ --------------(1)
If these resistors have equal resistance values, say R, then equation 1 becomes;
Rₓ = R + R
Rₓ = 2R
This means that their effective resistance is twice of their individual resistances. In other words, when two equal resistors are in series, their effective resistance is twice the resistance of each single one of those resistors.
Now, according to Ohm's law, voltage(V) is the product of current (I) and resistance (R). i.e
V = IR
I = [tex]\frac{V}{R}[/tex]
We can deduce that current increases as resistance decreases and vice-versa.
So, if the two equal resistors described above are connected in series, the amount of current flowing will be reduced compared to having just a single resistor.

Approximately what applied force is needed to keep the box moving with a constant velocity that is twice as fast as before? Explain
Complete question:
A force F is applied to the block as shown (check attached image). With an applied force of 1.5 N, the block moves with a constant velocity.
Approximately what applied force is needed to keep the box moving with a constant velocity that is twice as fast as before? Explain
Answer:
The applied force that is needed to keep the box moving with a constant velocity that is twice as fast as before, is 3 N
Force is directly proportional to velocity, to keep the box moving at the double of initial constant velocity, we must also double the value of the initially applied force.
Explanation:
Given;
magnitude of applied force, F = 1.5 N
Apply Newton's second law of motion;
F = ma
[tex]F = m(\frac{v}{t} )\\\\F = \frac{m}{t} v\\\\Let \ \frac{m}{t} \ be \ constant = k\\F = kv\\\\k = \frac{F}{v} \\\\\frac{F_1}{v_1} = \frac{F_2}{v_2}[/tex]
The applied force needed to keep the box moving with a constant velocity that is twice as fast as before;
[tex]\frac{F_1}{v_1} = \frac{F_2}{v_2} \\\\(v_2 = 2v_1, \ and \ F_1 = 1.5N)\\\\\frac{1.5}{v_1} = \frac{F_2}{2v_1} \\\\1.5 = \frac{F_2}{2}\\\\F_2 = 2*1.5\\\\F_2 = 3 N[/tex]
Therefore, the applied force that is needed to keep the box moving with a constant velocity that is twice as fast as before, is 3 N
Force is directly proportional to velocity, to keep the box moving at the double of initial constant velocity, we must also double the value of the applied force.

Cost = $ 0.005
Cost = $ 0.38
Explanation:
given data
electrical transmission varies = $0.070/kWh to $0.258/kWh
average value = $0.110/kWh
solution
when leaving a 40-W porch light on for two weeks while you are on vacation so cost will be
first we get here energy consumed that is express as
E = Pt .................1
here E is Energy Consumed and Power Delivered is P and t is time
so power is here 0.04 KW and t = 2 week = 336 hour
so
put value in 1 we get
E = 0.04 × 336
E = 13.44 KWh
so cost will be as
Cost = E × Unit Price .............2
put here value and we get
Cost = 13.44 × 0.11
Cost = $ 1.48
and
when you making a piece of dark toast in 3.00 min with a 970-W toaster
so energy consumed will be by equation 1 we get
E = Pt
power is = 0.97 KW and time = 3 min = 0.05 hour
put value in equation 1 for energy consume
E = 0.97 × 0.05 h
E = 0.0485 KWh
and we get cost by w\put value in equation 2 that will be
cost = E × Unit Price
cost = 0.0485 × 0.11
Cost = $ 0.005
and
when drying a load of clothes in 40.0 min in a 5.20 x 10^3-W dryer
from equation 1 we get energy consume
E = Pt
Power Delivered = 5.203 KW and time = 40 min = 0.67 hour
E = 5.203 × 0.67
E = 3.47 KWh
and
cost will by put value in equation 2
Cost = E × Unit Price
Cost = 3.47 × 0.11
Cost = $ 0.38

1 rad = 57.296°0.487 = unknown angleunknown angle =57.296 x 0.487 = 27.9°The angle in radians = 27.9°
A passenger jet flies from one airport to another 1,233 miles away in 2.4 h. Find its average speed. = ____ m/s
Speed = (distance) / (time)
Speed = (1,233 mile) / (2.4 hour)
Speed = 513.75 mile/hour
Speed = (513.75 mi/hr) x (1609.344 meter/mi) x (1 hr / 3600 sec)
Speed = (513.75 x 1609.344 / 3600) (mile-meter-hour/hour-mile-second)
Speed = 229.7 meter/second
When you are told that the wind has a "Small Coriolis force" associated with it, what is that "small force" exactly
Answer:
Coriolis force is a type of force of inertia that acts on objects that is in motion within a frame of reference that rotates with respect to an inertial frame. Due to the rotation of the earth, circulating air is deflected result of the Coriolis force, instead of the air circulating between the earth poles and the equator in a straight manner. Because of the effect of the Coriolis force, air movement deflects toward the right in the Northern Hemisphere and toward the left in the Southern Hemisphere, eventually taking a curved path of travel.
An accelerating voltage of 2.25 103 V is applied to an electron gun, producing a beam of electrons originally traveling horizontally north in vacuum toward the center of a viewing screen 36.4 cm away. (a) What is the magnitude of the deflection on the screen caused by the Earth's gravitational field
Answer:
s= 8.28×10⁻¹⁶m
Explanation:
given
V= 2.25×10³V
from conservation of energy
mv²/2=qΔV
v=√(2qΔV/m)
v= √(2×1.6×10⁻¹⁹×2.25×10³/9.1×10⁻³¹)
=√7.9×10¹⁴m/s
=2.8×10⁷m/s

describe the relation among density, temperature, and volume when the pressure is constant, and explain the blackbody radiation curve
Answer:
in all cases with increasing temperature the density should decrease.
Black body radiation is a construction that maintains a constant temperature and a hole is opened, this hole is called a black body,
Explanation:
Let's start for ya dream gas
PV = nRT
Since it indicates that the pressure is constant, we see that the volume is directly proportional to the temperature.
The density of is defined by
ρ = m / V
As we saw that volume increases with temperature, this is also true for solid materials, using linear expansion. Therefore in all cases with increasing temperature the density should decrease.
Black body radiation is a construction that maintains a constant temperature and a hole is opened, this hole is called a black body, since all the radiation that falls on it is absorbed or emitted.
This type of construction has a characteristic curve where the maximum of the curve is dependent on the tempera, but independent of the material with which it is built, to explain the behavior of this curve Planck proposed that the diaconate in the cavity was not continuous but discrete whose energy is given by the relationship

A d'Arsonal meter with an internal resistance of 1 kohm requires 10 mA to produce full-scale deflection. Calculate thew value of a series
A d’Arsonval meter with an internal resistance of 1 kΩ requires 10 mA to produce full-scale deflection. Calculate the value of a series resistance needed to measure 50 V of full scale.
Answer:4kΩ
Explanation:Given;
internal resistance, r = 1kΩ
current, I = 10mA = 0.01A
Voltage of full scale, V = 50V
Since there is full scale voltage of 50V, then the combined or total resistance (R) of the circuit is given as follows;
From Ohm's law
V = IR
R = [tex]\frac{V}{I}[/tex] [substitute the values of V and I]
R = [tex]\frac{50}{0.01}[/tex]
R = 5000Ω = 5kΩ
The combined resistance (R) is actually the total resistance of the series arrangement of the series resistance([tex]R_{S}[/tex]) and the internal resistance (r) in the circuit. i.e
R = [tex]R_{S}[/tex] + r
[tex]R_{S}[/tex] = R - r [Substitute the values of R and r]
[tex]R_{S}[/tex] = 5kΩ - 1kΩ
[tex]R_{S}[/tex] = 4kΩ
Therefore the series resistance is 4kΩ

You illuminate a slit with a width of 77.7 μm with a light of wavelength 721 nm and observe the resulting diffraction pattern on a screen that is situated 2.83 m from the slit. What is the width, in centimeters, of the pattern's central maximum
Answer:
The width is [tex]Z = 0.0424 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The width of the slit is [tex]d = 77.7 \mu m = 77.7 *10^{-6} \ m[/tex]
The wavelength of the light is [tex]\lambda = 721 \ nm[/tex]
The position of the screen is [tex]D = 2.83 \ m[/tex]
Generally angle at which the first minimum of the interference pattern the light occurs is mathematically represented as
[tex]\theta = sin ^{-1}[\frac{m \lambda}{d} ][/tex]
Where m which is the order of the interference is 1
substituting values
[tex]\theta = sin ^{-1}[\frac{1 *721*10^{-9}}{ 77.7*10^{-6}} ][/tex]
[tex]\theta = 0.5317 ^o[/tex]
Now the width of first minimum of the interference pattern is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]Y = D sin \theta[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]Y = 2.283 * sin (0.5317)[/tex]
[tex]Y = 0.02 12 \ m[/tex]
Now the width of the pattern's central maximum is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]Z = 2 * Y[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]Z = 2 * 0.0212[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.0424 \ m[/tex]

When the charges in the rod are in equilibrium, what is the magnitude of the electric field within the rod?
Answer: If we have equilibrium, the magnitude must be zero.
Explanation:
If the charges are in equilibrium, this means that the total charge is equal to zero.
And as the charges must be homogeneously distributed in the rod, we can conclude that the electric field within the rod must be zero, so the magnitude of the electric field must be zero
