Answer:
![g_{moon}=1.67 [m/s^{2} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=g_%7Bmoon%7D%3D1.67%20%5Bm%2Fs%5E%7B2%7D%20%5D)
Explanation:
The weight of some mass is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration. In this way using the following formula we can find the weight.
where:
w = weight [N]
m = mass = 0.06 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 10 [N/kg]
Therefore:
![w=0.06*10\\w=0.6[N]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=w%3D0.06%2A10%5C%5Cw%3D0.6%5BN%5D)
By Hooke's law we know that the force in a spring can be calculated by means of the following expression.
where:
k = spring constant [N/m]
x = deformed distance = 6 [cm] = 0.06 [m]
We can find the spring constant.
![k= F/x\\k=0.6/0.06\\k=10 [N/m]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=k%3D%20F%2Fx%5C%5Ck%3D0.6%2F0.06%5C%5Ck%3D10%20%5BN%2Fm%5D)
Since we use the same spring on the moon and the same mass, the constant of the spring does not change, the same goes for the mass.
![F_{moon}=k*0.01\\F = 10*0.01\\F=0.1[N]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F_%7Bmoon%7D%3Dk%2A0.01%5C%5CF%20%3D%2010%2A0.01%5C%5CF%3D0.1%5BN%5D)
Since this force is equal to the weight, we can now determine the gravitational acceleration.
![F=m*g_{moon}\\g=F/m\\g = 0.1/0.06\\g_{moon} = 1.67[m/s^{2} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F%3Dm%2Ag_%7Bmoon%7D%5C%5Cg%3DF%2Fm%5C%5Cg%20%3D%200.1%2F0.06%5C%5Cg_%7Bmoon%7D%20%3D%201.67%5Bm%2Fs%5E%7B2%7D%20%5D)

Answer:
Interference
Explanation:
Interference is the phenomenon in which two waves superimpose to form a wave with smaller, larger or same amplitude.
There are two types of interference namely, constructive interference and destructive interference.
Constructive interference occurs when the waves are in phase and destructive interference occurs when the waves are out of phase.
In a double slit experiment, the two slits acts as sources of light and thus the waves combine to produce interference patterns. When the waves are in phase, that is the angle between them is 0°, they form a constructive interference pattern which gives rise to a light band. When the waves are out of phase, that is the angle between them is 180°, they form a destructive interference pattern which gives rise to a dark band.
Note also that diffraction patterns are also observed for wide slits but can be neglected for smaller slits.
