1. Two source, S1 and S2, are vibrating in phase and produce waves with a wavelength of 2.5 m. The two waves overlap at a nodal point. Calculate the smallest corresponding difference in path length for this point. [ans: 1.2m]

2. A point on the third nodal line from the center of an interference pattern is 35 cm from one source and 42cm from the other. The sources are 11.2 cm apart and vibrate in phase at 10.5Hz.
a) calculate the boyfriend of the waves [ans: 2.8cm]
b) calculate the speed of the waves [29cm/s]

3. Thomas Young showed that light passing through 2 parallel narrow slits produces a pattern of light and dark fringes. Did this support or contradict Newton's corpuscular theory of light? Explain your answer.

Ps. Plz explain your solutions so that I can follow up with these steps.

If there are two energy states, S1 and S2 respectively such that S2>S1 then there exists...

If there are two energy states, S1 and S2 respectively such that S2>S1 then there exists some probability for an atom in S2 to decay to S1. What actually causes the atom to decay to the lower energy state? is it the fact that the lower state is more probable for the atom to be in as given by the Boltzmann Factor? so since it is more probable, it has more microstates and entropy causes it to decay? Please help...

Two speakers spaced emitting identical sound waves in phase with each other of wavelength 1.00 m are spaceced 5.00 m from eachother. At what minimal distance (in m) from one of them should an observer stand to hear almost nothing (the first minimum)(__________)? The first maximum after this minimum (__________)? Second minimum (__________)? Second maximum (__________)? Third minimum (__________)? Third maximum (__________)? How many minima overall can be observed (__________)? How many maxima (__________)?

The intersection (∩) of two sets (s1, s2) is the set of all elements that are in s1 and are also in s2. Write a function (intersect) that takes two lists as input (you can assume they have no duplicate elements), and returns the intersection of those two sets (as a list) without using the in operator or any built-in functions, except for range() and len(). Write some code to test your function, as well. Note: Do not use the...

Suppose you have two strains of mice, S1 and S2. Strain S2 is genetically modified to metabolize a pharmacon P supposedly faster than S1. You conducted an experiment in a sample set of each strain, in which the pharmacon was injected and its concentration in blood was measured every 15min for 2h. Of course, age, gender, and weight was recorded for each animal. You want to statistically demonstrate that the metabolic rate of N is higher in S2 than S1....

1. The wavelength of sound waves from two speakers is 336.4cm long. a) If a person were standing at the end of the wavelength, what would they hear? Explain. b) What can be said about ∆?/? , the ratio of the path length difference from the two speakers compared to the wavelength of the speakers?

Two loudspeakers on a concert stage are vibrating in phase. A listener is 45.9 m from the left speaker and 34.7 m from the right one. The listener can respond to all frequencies from 20 to 20 000 Hz, and the speed of sound is 343 m/s. What is the lowest frequency that can be heard loudly due to constructive interference?

Let S1 and S2 be any two equivalence relations on some set A, where A ≠ ∅. Recall that S1 and S2 are each a subset of A×A. Prove or disprove (all three): The relation S defined by S=S1∪S2 is (a) reflexive (b) symmetric (c) transitive

Given the two stacks S1 and S2 each with a set of numbers, write an algorithm to check if the two stacks are identical (have the same information). Use only the Push and Pop operations. The original stacks should be kept. Briefly explain the time complexity of your algorithm.

Two subspecies of salamanders in Southeast Asia, salamander S1 and Salamander S2, are thought to have diverged genetically and morphologically through run speciation. At the souther tip of their respective native ranges, they can co-occur in secondary contact. They can mate successfully and produce viable, fertile offspring; the offspring can therefore also reproduce. However, the hybrid offspring have a coloration that is disproportionately attractive and easily detectable by predators, leading to decreased survival. The relatively low fitness of the S1...
