Answer:

he correct answers are a, b

Explanation:

In the two-slit interference phenomenon, the expression for interference is

          d sin θ= m λ                       constructive interference

          d sin θ = (m + ½) λ             destructive interference

in general this phenomenon occurs for small angles, for which we can write

           tanθ = y / L

           tan te = sin tea / cos tea = sin tea

           sin θ = y / La

un

derestimate the first two equations.

Let's do the calculation for constructive interference

         d y / L = m λ

the distance between maximum clos is and

         y = (me / d) λ

this is the position of each maximum, the distance between two consecutive maximums

         y₂-y₁ = (L   2/d) λ - (L 1 / d) λ₁          y₂ -y₁ = L / d λ

examining this equation if the wavelength decreases the value of y also decreases

the same calculation for destructive interference

         d y / L = (m + ½) κ

         y = [(m + ½) L / d] λ

again when it decreases the decrease the distance

the correct answers are a, b

How far will a car travel in 25 seconds at 10m/ min
Kryger [21]
Time = 25s
speed = 10m/min
= 10m / 60
= (1/6)m/s


distance = speed × time
= 25 × (1/6)
=4.167m
