Two narrow slits are 0.12 mm apart. light of wavelength 550 nm illuminates the slits, causing an interference pattern on a scree

n 1.0 m away. Light from each slit travels to the m=1 maximum on the right side of the central maximum. how much farther did the light from the left slit travel that the light from the right slit?

Answer:

500 nm

Explanation:

d_l = Distance traveled by light from left slit

d_r = Distance traveled by light from right slit

\Delta x = Path difference = d_l-d_r

m = Order = 1

\lambda = Wavelength = 550 nm

Path difference is given by

\Delta x=m\lambda\\\Rightarrow d_l-d_r=1\times 550\\\Rightarrow d_l-d_r=500\ nm

The required distance is 500 nm

egoroff_w [7]
I think it would be yes because the drum is submerged in water and the water would slow the sound waves, making the sound softer. Right?

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. the indices of refraction matched

Explanation:

The index of refraction, or refractive

index, is a measure of how fast light

rays travel through a given medium.

Alternatively, it could be said that

the refractive index is the measure of

the bending of a light ray when

passing from one medium to

another. Mathematically, it can be

represented as a ratio between two

different velocities – the velocity of

light in vacuum and the velocity of

light in a given medium.

For example, try putting a pencil in a jar full of water. If you look at the pencil from above, it would look as though the pencil has bent in the water. That happens due to the refraction of light. It occurs because as light rays enter water, they slow down, as the speed of light in water is lower than the speed of light in air. The magnitude of how much a medium refracts a light ray is determined by the index
