This question is incomplete, the complete question;
you make an interferometer using 50-50 beam splitter and two mirrors, one being a perfect mirror and one which does not reflect all light. The wavelength of the 9 mW incident laser is 400 nm.
Because the top mirror is not perfectly reflective (it reflects 90% of the photons, allowing 10% of them to go through), the power measured at the detector when only the vertical arm is blocked is 2.25 mW, while the power measured at the detector when only the horizontal arm is blocked is only 2.025 mW. Assume initially the intensity is at its maximum. How much would we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector, and what is that minimum intensity
Options;
a) 200 nm; 0.9 mW
b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW
c) 200 nm; 0 mW
d) 100 nm; 0.9 mW
e) 200 nm; 0.0059 mW
Answer:
the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector and the minimum intensity are;
100 nm; 0.0059 mW
Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer
Explanation:
Given that the instrument here is an interferometer.
Maximum intensity is obtained when the two waves are exactly in phase.
that is the peaks (crusts and troughs) and nodes (zero value points) of the two waves will be at the exact same point when the wave falls on the detector.
The phase factor of this point is taken as ∅ = 0
Now, to get a minimum point, the phase difference between the two waves should be should be ∅ = π
This corresponds to a path difference between the two waves as half of the wavelength. λ/2
The light gets reflected from the mirror.
Hence, when we move the mirror by a length l, the extra/less path the light has to travel is 2l (light is going and coming back)
hence, to get a path difference of λ/2 the mirror should move half of this distance only
so, the mirror should move;
[tex]l[/tex] = λ/4
here, wavelength is 400nm
the length moved by the mirror = 400/4 = 100 nm
The intensity is given by the equation;
[tex]l[/tex] = [tex]l[/tex]1 + [tex]l[/tex]2 + 2√[tex]l[/tex]1[tex]l[/tex]2cos(∅)
where
[tex]l[/tex]1 = 2.25 mW
[tex]l[/tex]2 = 2.025 mW
∅ = π
so we substitute
[tex]l[/tex] = 2.25 + 2.025 - 2√(2.25 × 2.025)
[tex]l[/tex] = 4.275 - 4.26907
[tex]l[/tex] = 0.0059
Therefore; the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector and the minimum intensity are;
100 nm; 0.0059 mW
Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant (and quite modest) acceleration. A train travels through a congested part of town at 4.0 m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 11 m/s in 8.0 s. At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed. Part A What is the final speed
Answer:
25 m/s
Explanation:
Given that:
Initial speed, u = 4 m/s
Final velocity, V = 11 m/s
Time, t = 8 seconds
t2, = 16 seconds
Acceleration, a= (change in velocity) / time interval
a = (11 - 4) / 8
a = 7 / 8 = 0.875m/s²
Final velocity, v2 ;
Acceleration * t2
0.875 * 16 = 14
V2 = 14 m/s
Final speed : v + v2 = (11 + 14)m/s = 25m/s

The nucleus of an atom can be modeled as several protons and neutrons closely packed together.Each particle has a mass of 1.67 3 10227 kg and radius on the order of 10215 m.
(a) Use this model and the data provided to estimate the density of the nucleus of an atom.
(b) Compare your result with the density of a material such as iron. What do your result and comparison suggest about the structure of matter?
Answer:
Explanation:
Let n be number of total number of nucleons ( protons + neutrons )
Total mass inside nucleus = n x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg
volume of nucleus = 4/3 π r³
= 1.33 x 3.14 x (10⁻¹⁵)³ m
= 4.17 x 10⁻⁴⁵ m³
Density = mass / volume
= n x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ / 4.17 x 10⁻⁴⁵
= .4 n x 10¹⁸ kg / m³
or of the order of 10¹⁸ kg/m³
b )
Density of iron = 7900 kg / m³
or of the order of 10⁴ kg / m³
So nucleus of a matter is about 10¹⁴ times denser than iron .
Arturo and Bianca are discussing the speeds of cars A and B. Arturo says: It looks like when the time is exactly 1.0s, the speed of Car B is greater than the speed of Car A. Bianca says: It also looks to me like the speed of Cars A and B are exactly the same at about 2.0s. Do you agree or disagree with Arturo and Bianca
Answer:
he two people agree with your answer
v_B = v_{oB} - a t
v_A = cte
Explanation:
To analyze if they are both in Kurdish, let's see the movement of the two cars
at t = 1s
the velocity of carriage B is greater than the speed of carriage a
v_B> v_A
at t = 2 s
the speed of the two cars is nipple
v_B = v_A
For this to be true, the speed of car B must be decreasing
v_B = v_{oB} - a t
v_A = cte
therefore the two people agree with your answer

Desperado, a roller coaster built in Nevada, has a mass of 800 kg. It also has a vertical drop of 225 feet down the first hill. The roller coaster is designed so that the speed of the cars at the end of this drop is 80 mi/h. Assume the cars are at rest at the start of the drop. How much work is done by friction on the car as it drops down the hill
Answer:
the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the roller coaster, m = 800 kg
distance moved by the coaster, d = 225 ft = 68.58 m
final velocity of the coaster, v = 80 mi/h = 35.76 m/s
The time taken for the coaster to drop down the hill is calculated as;
[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\ \times \ 68.58}{9.8} } \\\\t = 3.74 \ s[/tex]
The work done by friction on the car is calculated as;
[tex]W =F\ \times \ d = \frac{mv}{t} \times \ d\\\\W = \frac{800 \ \times \ 35.76 }{3.74} \times \ 68.58\\\\W = 524,582 \ J[/tex]
Therefore, the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.

Peter, a 100 kg basketball player, lands on his feet after completing a slam dunk and then immediately jumps up again to celebrate his basket. When his feet first touch the floor after the dunk, his velocity is 5 m/s downward; when his feet leave the floor 0.50 s later, as he jumps back up, his velocity is 4 m/s upward. a. What is the impulse exerted on Peter during this 0.50 s
Answer:
Explanation:
Impulse = change in momentum
Initial momentum = mass x initial velocity = 100 x 5 = 500 kg m/s
final momentum = mass x final velocity = 100 x - 4 = -400 ( - ve sign due to reversal of direction )
change in momentum = final momentum - initial momentum
= - 400 - 500 = - 900 kg m/s .
As it is - ve , it acts upwards .
So magnitude of impulse on Perter = 900 kg m/s
A 6.00 nC is 2.00 m from a 3.00 nC charge. Find the magnitude of the electric field at a point midway between
the two charges? Which way does the electric field point, towards the positive or the negative charge?
Answer:
E_total = 26.97 N/C
Electric field points towards the positive charge
Explanation:
We are given;
Charge 1; q1 = 6 nC = 6 × 10^(-9) C
Charge 2; q2 = 3 nC = 3 × 10^(-9) C
Distance between both charges; R_o = 2 m
Since we want to find electric field midway, the distance midway is r = 2/2 = 1 m
Using coulumbs law;
E = kq/r²
Where k is a constant with a value of 8.99 × 10^(9) N.m/C²
Thus;
E1 = kq1/r²
E1 = (8.99 × 10^(9) × 6 × 10^(-9))/1²
E1 = 53.94 N/C
Similarly;
E2 = kq2/r²
E2 = (8.99 × 10^(9) × 3 × 10^(-9))/1²
E2 = 26.97 N/C
Since both electric fields are positive, it means that they are both moving towards the midpoint of the distance between both charges.
This implies they will have opposite directions.
Thus, total electric field at the midway point is;
E_total = E1 - E2
E_total = 53.94 - 26.97
E_total = 26.97 N/C

A single, monochromatic indigo light source is shined through an etched, flat prism with a slit separation of .0250mm. The resulting interference pattern is viewed on a screen 1.25m away. The third maximum is found to be 6.6cm from the central maximum. What is the wavelength of the indigo light
Answer:
λ = 440 nm
Explanation:
The phenomenon of constructive interference is described by the expressions
d sin θ= m λ (1)
where d is the separation of the slits d = 0.0250 mm = 2.50 10⁻⁵ m, lam is the wavelength of the incident radiation and m is an integer indicating the order of interference
let's use trigonometry to find the angle
tan θ = y / L
where L is the distance to the screen L = 1.25 m
in general interference experiments angles are very small
tan θ = [tex]\frac{sin \ \theta }{cos \ \theta}[/tex]
ten θ = sin θ
substituting
sin θ = y / L
we substitute 1
d y / L = m λ
λ = [tex]\frac{ d \ y }{m \ L}[/tex]
in the exercise indicate
m = 3
y = 6.6 cm = 6.6 10-2 m
we calculate
λ = 2.50 10⁻⁵ 6.6 10⁻² /( 3 1.25)
λ = 4.4 10⁻⁷ m
let's reduce to nm
λ = 4.4 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹ nm / 1 m)
λ = 440 nm

A student stretches a spring, attaches a 1.20 kg mass to it, and releases the mass from rest on a frictionless surface. The resulting oscillation has a period of 0.750 s and an amplitude of 15.0 cm. Determine the oscillation frequency, the spring constant, and the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position.
Answer:
the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position is 1.26 m/s
Explanation:
Given that;
mass of the object m = 1.20 kg
period of oscillation = 0.750 s
Amplitude ( A/x) = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m
now;
a) Determine the oscillation frequency;
oscillation frequency f = 1/T
we substitute
f = 1 / 0.750 s
f = 1.33 Hz
Therefore, the oscillation frequency is 1.33 Hz
b) Determine the spring constant;
we solve for spring constant from the following expression;
T = 2π√(m/k)
k = 4π²m / T²
so we substitute
k = (4π² × 1.20) / (0.750)²
k = 47.3741 / 0.5625
k = 84.22 N/m
Therefore, the spring constant is 84.22 N/m
c) determine the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position
So, at equilibrium, the energy is equal to K.E
such that;
1/2mv² = 1/2kx²
mv² = kx²
v² = kx² / m
v = √( kx²/m)
we substitute
v = √( 84.22×(0.15 m)²/ 1.2 )
v = √( 1.89495 / 1.2 )
v = √ 1.579125
v = 1.26 m/s
Therefore, the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position is 1.26 m/s
The nearest neighbor interaction force is of magnitude 481 nanoNewtons, e.g., the magnitude of the force of the leftmost electron on the proton, or the magnitude of the force of any of the three on its nearest neighbor electron. Calculate the size of the net force on the leftmost proton.
Answer:
F = 120.25 10⁻⁹ N
Explanation:
In this exercise, the force between the closest neighbors is indicated by f = 481 10⁻⁹ N, in general between the one-dimensional solid the distances remain the same, if the distance between the first neighbor is d, the distance between the second neighbors is 2d.
For most solids the attractive forces are electrical, therefore force is proportional to the electrical charges and the inverse of the distance squared,
F = [tex]k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}[/tex]
if we call fo the force for the first neighbors
F₀ = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}
the force for the second neighbors r= 2d
F = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{(2d)^2}
F = F₀ / 4
let's calculate
F = 481 10⁻⁹ / 4
F = 120.25 10⁻⁹ N

I have a massive rock weighing 3,000 Newtons but I can only accelerate it to 500 m/s2 what is its mass?
Answer:
6 kg
Explanation:
F=ma
F is Force(newtons)
m is mass(kg)
a is acceleration(m/s^2)
Plug in the numbers
3000 = m(500)
divide both sides by 500 to cancel out the 500.
3000/500=6
6 = m
6kg is the mass
