Light from a sodium lamp passes through a diffraction grating that has 1000 slits per millimeter. the interference pattern is viewed on a screen 1.000 m behind the grating. the first (m = 1) two bright yellow fringes that are visible are 0.7288 m and 0.7300 m from the central maximum. what are the wavelengths of these two fringes?

Two identical stars with mass m orbit around their center of mass. each orbit is circular and has radius r, so that the two stars are always on opposite sides of the circle. (a) find the gravitational force of one star on the other. (b) find the orbital speed of each star and the period of the orbit. (c) how much energy would be required to separate the two stars to infinity?

Which of these statements best explains how the hydrosphere interacts with the atmosphere to affect global climate? mountains block rain clouds and cause changes in global rainfall and evaporation. humans burn fossil fuels to produce greenhouse gases which cause global warming. humans cut down trees which affects the amount of oxygen in different parts of the globe. greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide, dissolve in oceans and prevent global warming.
