    The sources of error in a diffraction grating experiment

    Doesn't anyone exist?:smile:

    The sources of error in a diffraction grating experiment

    I think an error could be to read the diffraction angle. Because people may read different angles, albeit with slight differences. And because the diffraction angle is related to the wavelength, can affect it.

    The sources of error in a diffraction grating experiment

    Yes, I am familiar with diffraction patterns and its theory. No, this is not a school work question, it is a personal question, otherwise I would have sent the question in the relevant section.

    The sources of error in a diffraction grating experiment

    In a diffraction grating experiment, what can be the sources of error and also what effect do these sources have on the unknown quantity (wavelength) in the experiment?

    What is the recoil energy of a nucleus produced in its first energy level?

    Table: To solve, using the conservation of energy: E0=(m(deutron)+m(16O)-m(17O)-m(p))c^2 so: E0=(2.014+15.994-16.999-1.008)931.5=0.93 MeV. so using the conservation of energy: 14.95+0.93=16.62+0+E' E'=- 0.74 MeV But the energy sign has become negative. I also calculated for the first excited...

    I Understanding Action as a Scalar: Exploring the Concept and its Importance

    I don't know. This is the question our professor asked us without explanation to think. What is the reason that it is a vector?

    ok thanks

    I The surface area of an oblate ellipsoid

    A similar formula was stated by our nuclear professor, but with the difference that there was b instead of c. So I thought in this case b = c

    I The surface area of an oblate ellipsoid

    My data is as follows:

    I The surface area of an oblate ellipsoid

    My final result is as follows: 4*pi*R^2 (1+ε+ (7/5)ε ^2+ (36/35)ε ^3 +...) Which has a bad difference with the result of the book.:oldconfused:

    I The surface area of an oblate ellipsoid

    In "An Introduction to Nuclear Physics by W. N. Cottingham, D. A. Greenwood" for the surface area of an oblate ellipsoid, the following equation is written for small values of ε : The book has said this without proof. I found the following formula for the desired shape: No matter how hard I...

    I The center of mass & relativistic collisions

    I understand now by your good example. Thankful.

    I The center of mass & relativistic collisions

    I'm still confused. For example, in 'Introduction to Elementary Particles by Griffith', for relativistic collisions, the center of momentum frame is introduced to solve problems. But isn't the center of mass frame appropriate in relativistic collisions?
