<h2>Answer</h2>

There will be two different possiblites as

May be one is in rest or other move

May be both will be in motion

<h2>Expalanation</h2>

According to Conservation Law of Momentum, when the two objects collide with each other, they transferred their kinetic energy to keep their momentum before or after collisions remain constant. In the present example, one moving car collides with another car which is at rest and has the same weight. There will be two possibilities after the collision as an elastic collision or perfect inelastic collision. In the elastic collision, the one car will adopt the rest position after the collision and transfer it K.E to make the rest car at the movable position. In the perfect inelastic collision, both cars will move after the collision.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

\Delta x = 3.65 \mu m

Explanation:

As we know that the sixth order maximum will have path difference given as

\Delta x = N\lambda

here we know that

N = order of maximum

\lambda = 609 nm

now we have

N = 6

so we know that

\Delta x = 6(609 nm)

\Delta x = 3.65 \mu m
