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.

An object, initially at rest, moves 250 m in 17 s. What is its acceleration?

mash [69]

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 250 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

t = 17 s

Find: a

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

250 m = (0 m/s) (17 s) + ½ a (17 s)²

a = 1.73 m/s²

12) Water flows through a horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 10.0 cm2 at a pressure of 0.250 atm with a flow rate is 1.00 L

masha68 [24]

Answer:

The pressure after passing the valve is 23,8 [Kpa] ( 0,234 atm) and the pressure drop is about 1,53 [Kpa]

Explanation:

We need to use the formula of bernoulli, in the attached image we can see the fluid throw the pipe, we also can calculate the velocity inside the pipe using the flow rate and the cross sectional area.

For this case, we don't use the elevation difference and therefore those terms can be cancelled.

When the area has reduced the velocity of the fluid is increased but there is a drop pressure through the valve.
