Answer:

a

    z= 2.5 \ m

b

   z =  (1 \ m ,  4 \ m )

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     Their distance apart is  d =  5.00 \ m

      The  wavelength of each source wave \lambda =  6.0 \ m

Let the distance from source A  where the construct interference occurred be z

Generally the path difference for constructive interference is

              z - (d-z) =  m \lambda

Now given that we are considering just the straight line (i.e  points along the line connecting the two sources ) then the order of the maxima m =  0

  so

        z - (5-z) =  0

=>     2 z - 5 =  0

=>     z= 2.5 \ m

Generally the path difference for destructive  interference is

           |z-(d-z)| = (2m + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}

=>         |2z - d |= (0 + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}

=>        |2z - d| =\frac{\lambda}{2}

substituting values

          |2z - 5| =\frac{6}{2}

=>      z  =  \frac{5 \pm 3}{2}

So  

      z =  \frac{5 + 3}{2}

      z =  4\ m

and

      z =  \frac{ 5 -3 }{2}

=>   z =  1 \ m

=>    z =  (1 \ m ,  4 \ m )

Convert 3 hours 21 minutes to decimal hours.
Oxana [17]

Total hours is 3.35 hours

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

convert 3 hours 21 minutes to decimal hours

We know:

1 hour = 60 minutes

and

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 minute = 1 / 60 hours

So,

21 minutes = \frac{21}{60} hours

                  = 0.35 hours

Total hours would be = 3 hours + 0.35 hours

                                    = 3.35 hours

Therefore, total hours is 3.35 hours
