How are the interference patterns for light through a double slit and light through a single slit similar yet different

Physics
1 answer:
xxMikexx [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: In double slit case, you need to understand superposition on waves emerging from dirrerent slit.

Explanation: When passing a single slit, wave spread in all directions.

In double slit waves with equal wavelength travel different path and distance  

trey travel is different . Waves meet each other in different positions in different phases. If phase are same, waves have contructive interference, crests of waves meet in same point. Amplitudes of waves are added together. If waves are in opposite phases, sum of amplitudes

ame subtacted and this is destructive interference. Sum of amplitudes are zero.

1).  Yes.  An object can be moving if the net force acting on the object is zero. 
A non-zero net force is required to CHANGE the object's motion ... speed it up,
slow it down, or change its direction.  But no force is required to keep it moving
at a constant speed in a straight line.

2).a).  The motion of the box changes, from not moving to moving. 
So the forces acting on it must be unbalanced.

2).b).  The motion of the box doesn't change.  It goes from not moving
to still not moving.  So the forces acting on it must be balanced.

2).c).  The motion of the box changes.  Its speed decreases. 
So the forces acting on it must be unbalanced.

How much heat is required to completely boil away 0.200 kg of water (ΔHv = 2.26 × 103 kJ/kg)?
alexandr1967 [171]
We will use the formula:
Q = ml
where Q is the heat, m is the mass of substance, and l is the latent heat of vaporization of the substance.

Q = 0.2 x 2.26 x 10³
Q = 452 kJ

Katie, a 40 kg child, climbs a tree to rescue her cat who is afraid to jump 9.4 m to the ground. How much work does Katie do to
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The work done by the child to reach the cat is, W = 3684.8 J        

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the child, m = 40 kg

The height of the cat from the ground, h = 9.4 m

The force acting on the child due to gravitational force is,

                                  F = mg

The minimum force required by the child to climb the tree against the gravitational force is,

                                 F = mg

Hence, the work done by the child is,

                                W = F ·  h

                                     = 40 x 9.8 x 9.4

                                     = 3684.8 joules

Hence, the work done by the child to reach the cat is, W = 3684.8 J
