Young's double slit experiment(YDSE) can be used for any kind of waves such as electromagnetic waves, sound waves, water waves, gravity waves. YDSE is based on interference. In this experiment, we make two waves interfere in order to obtain bright and dark fringes on the screen(in case of light).
You can carry this out with water, would be great if you try this at pond or water reservoir in order to see perfect ripples.

Answer:
2.47 m
Explanation:
Let's calculate first the time it takes for the ball to cover the horizontal distance that separates the starting point from the crossbar of d = 52 m.
The horizontal velocity of the ball is constant:
and the time taken to cover the horizontal distance d is
So this is the time the ball takes to reach the horizontal position of the crossbar.
The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by
where
is the initial vertical velocity
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity
And substituting t = 2.56 s, we find the vertical position of the ball when it is above the crossbar:
The height of the crossbar is h = 3.05 m, so the ball passes
above the crossbar.
