Explanation:
The poem “The Lady of Shalott” tells the story of the young isolated woman. The lady lives in the tower on the island that lies on the river flowing to Camelot. Lady knows she is bound by some curse, but she is not sure what it is nor what are the consequences. She looks on to the road to Camelot through the mirror, while weaving at all times.
<u>However, she becomes more isolated and lonely over time.</u> <u>In one line she says, 'I am half sick of shadows,' meaning she doesn’t want only to see the shadows of the people and their lives while being unable to live her life herself with other people.</u>
When she sees Sir Lancelot, she is overflown with the wish for the company and decides to stop weaving and leave the island. However, she dies before arriving at the shore of Camelot. <u>Her wish to meet other people and stop being alone brought down the said curse upon her. </u>
The hat had a cloth sewn into its back to protect its wearer's head.
<h3>Why was this protection necessary?</h3>
- Because the hat had holes.
- Because without the cloth the hat let the sun through its frame.
The hat had holes, which prevented its bearer's head from being protected from the sun. For this reason, a cloth was sewn into the back of the hat, to prevent its owner's head from being exposed to the sun.

Answer:
Explanation:
In the early 1800s (1801 to 1805, depending on the source), Thomas Young conducted his experiment. He allowed light to pass through a slit in a barrier, so it expanded out in wavefronts from that slit as a light source (under Huygens' Principle). In turn, that light passed through the pair of slits in another barrier (carefully placed the right distance from the original slit). Each slit, in turn, diffracted the light as if they were also individual sources of light. The light impacted an observation screen. This is shown to the right.
When a single slit was open, it impacted the observation screen with greater intensity at the center. It then faded as you moved away from the center. There are two possible results of this experiment:
Particle interpretation: If light exists as particles, the intensity of both slits will be the sum of the power from the individual slits.
Wave interpretation: If light exists as waves, the light waves will have interference under the principle of superposition, creating bands of light (constructive interference) and dark (destructive interference).
