    Quantum physics and wave lengths

    well i assume now you use wavelength= h/mv and to find v i'd use Ee=Ek, just i need to find relativistic mass and energy first for the speed ill get is faster then that of light

    Optics Homework: Blue Light Diffracted by Grating

    okay so i understand A) you computed 1/5000 line/cm wrong, you should've used 1.0 x10^-2/ 5000 line/cm then plug 2.0x10^-6 in for the equation thank you for your help though

    Interference and diffraction of light

    there would be four, but so i solved for d and i get 1.81x10^-6, so now i convert that into cm?

    Quantum physics and wave lengths

    Homework Statement What is the de Broglie wavelength of an electron that has been accelerated through a potential difference of 1 MV ( you must use the relativistic mass and energy expressions at this high energy.) ans. 8.7 x 10^-13 Homework Equations M= Mo/ square root (1 - v^2/c^2)The...

    Optics Homework: Blue Light Diffracted by Grating

    well i think A) your trying to find θ for the 2nd order image right which would be m, and you know the wavelength 470nm and you know m=0.0002 cm. would this get me 28 degrees tho?

    Optics Homework: Blue Light Diffracted by Grating

    so i did what you said and the angle i get is 27, so where could i have gone wrong, what answer do you get?

    How Do You Calculate the Half-Life of a Radioactive Substance?

    Homework Statement k so An experiment is done to determine the half-life of a radioactive substance that emits one beta particle for each decay process. Measurements show that an average of 8.4 beta particles are emitted each second by 2.5 milligrams of the substance. The atomic weight of the...

    Interference and diffraction of light

    sorry I am still confused on how to get there, what would i possibly do with d?

    Optics Homework: Blue Light Diffracted by Grating

    sorry I am still not interpreting your answer, what would i do with 5000 lines/cm in inserting it into helping me solve for an answer

    How Do You Calculate Forces on Charges Using Coulomb's Law?

    but wait, try it for yourself, apparently you don't get the given answer of -0.55 N, what is the answer u thus get?
