    Wavelength of light and interference pattern

    Thanks! I got the right answer but am still not sure why. Here's what I did: y = ((lambda)*(L)) / d ((0.523 * 1.408E-6) / 1.2) - (1.076E-7 - 0.523E-7) = 558.5 nm. Thanks!

    Wavelength of light and interference pattern

    So should y2 be y2 + y1? I am still a bit confused. Thanks!

    Wavelength of light and interference pattern

    I had: a*(y1 / L) = m1*lambda a*(y2 / L) = m2*lambda (lambda*L) / y1 = (2*lambda*L) / y2 lambda = [(y2)(L)] / [(y1)(L)] Is that right? Thanks!

    Wavelength of light and interference pattern

    Homework Statement The interference pattern on a screen 1.2 m behind a 710 line/mm diffraction grating is shown in Figure P22.45 (http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q208/infinitbelt/p22-45alt.gif ), in which y1 = 52.3 cm and y2 = 107.6 cm. What is the wavelength of the light? 2. The...

    How High Did Jose Jump Above the Lowest Point on His Bungee Adventure?

    Homework Statement Jose, whose mass is 90 kg, has just completed his first bungee jump and is now bouncing up and down at the end of the cord. His oscillations have an initial amplitude of 9 m and a period of 4.0 s.2. The attempt at a solution a) The spring constant of the bungee cord is...

    Calculating Coefficient of Static Friction with Oscillating Masses

    Yes, sorry about that. Thank you very much for your help. I got the right answer of 0.223.

    Calculating Coefficient of Static Friction with Oscillating Masses

    I think I have the wrong spring constant. The spring constant is actually unknown. I tried to calculate the k using the following equation: k = (m1+m2)((2pi)(f))^2 I then used A = (u * g (m1+m2)) / k Do I use m1 + m2 in both of the cases or do I just use one mass to solve for k...

    Calculating Coefficient of Static Friction with Oscillating Masses

    Did you mean 35/3.8? If so, I get friction to be 0.939, which is not the right answer. Thanks!

    Calculating Coefficient of Static Friction with Oscillating Masses

    So am I using the wrong acceleration? Should the equation be: A = (a(mass of bottom block)) / k? If so, I get u = 0.939, which still is the wrong answer. I think I misunderstood you. I get the box in the pickup truck. So the bottom block is like the truck and the top block is like the...

    Calculating Coefficient of Static Friction with Oscillating Masses

    The restoring force is maximum when the amplitude is the highest, right? Here's what I tried doing: A = (a(m1+m2)) / k I solved for acceleration to get 6.03 m/s^2 I then used F = ma I found F to be 35 N I then used F = m1(u * g) I got u to equal 0.892, which is still the wrong...
