Identical rays of light enter three transparent blocks composed of different materials. Light slows down upon entering the blocks.
For single-slit diffraction, calculate the first three values of (the total phase difference between rays from each edge of the slit) that produce subsidiary maxima by a) using the phasor model, b) setting dr = 0, where I is given by, I = Io (sin (10) ². 2
A capacitor with a capacitance of C = 5.95×10−5 F is charged by connecting it to a 12.5 −V battery. The capacitor is then disconnected from the battery and connected across an inductor with an inductance of L = 1.55 H .   (D)What is the charge on the capacitor 0.0235 s after the connection to the inductor is made? Interpret the sign of your answer. (e) At the time given in part (d), what is the current in the inductor? Interpret the sign of your answer. (f) Atthe time given in part (d), how much electrical energy is stored in the capacitor and how much is stored in the inductor?
