Which picture best demonstrates the phenomenon of diffraction?

Physics
1 answer:
timama [110]3 years ago

Answer:

The image to the left (with the disks on it)

Explanation:

Interference in any type of wave can be gotten in two forms, constructive interference, and destructive interference.

The constructive interference is between two waves with the same phase, that is, each crest and trough correspond with the crest and trough of the another getting as result a wave with twice the amplitude of the original one.

The destructive interference is between two waves out of phase, in which the crest of one cancels with the trough of another.

If light passes for a slit it will get a diffraction pattern in a screen, at which each bright pattern corresponds to a crest and a dark pattern to a trough, as a consequence of constructive interference and destructive interference in different points of its propagation to the screen.

The circular shape of the disks can be a representation of the wavefront and how the overlaps make constructive and destructive interference in order to get the diffraction pattern.

Cerrena [4.2K]
4 N/cm^2 is the answer. the way you get this is the formula for pressure is P=F/A. So you would plug in the numbers which would make the equation P=12/3 which you know equals 4. The units for pressure is N/cm^2 or N/m^2

I hope this helps

Answer

2) 1.5×10-2 m

Explanation

The potential difference is related to the electric field by:

\Delta V=Ed (1)

where

\Delta V is the potential difference

E is the electric field

d is the distance

We want to know the distance the detectors have to be placed in order to achieve an electric field of

E=1 V/cm=100 V/m

when connected to a battery with potential difference

\Delta V=1.5 V

Solving the equation (1) for d, we find

d=\frac{\Delta V}{E}=\frac{1.5 V}{100 V/m}=0.015 m=1.5 \cdot 10^{-2} m
