Abeam of electrons with of wavelength of 7.5 x 10-6 m is incident on a pair of narrow rectangular slits separated by 0.75 mm. the resulting interference pattern is projected onto a screen 10.0 m from the slits. what is the separation of the interference maxima in the resulting interference pattern?

Consider an ordinary, helium-filled party balloon with a volume of 2.2 ft3. the lifting force on the balloon due to the outside air is the net resultant of the pressure distribution exerted on the exterior surface of the balloon. using this fact, we can derive archimedes’ principle, namely that the upward force on the balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon. assuming that the balloon is at sea level, where the air density is 0.002377 slug/ft3, calculate the maximum weight that can be lifted by the balloon. note: the molecular weight of air is 28.8 and that of helium is 4.
