The figure shows the circular wave fronts emitted by two sources. The wavelength of the two identical waves is 4.2 m. What is the path-lenngth difference at point R, in meters? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answe it is already given in the question statement.

The intensity I of heat varies directly as the strength of the source and inversely as the square of the distance from the source. If an object approaches a heated object of strength 4.00 units at a rate of 60.0 cm/s, how fast is the intensity changing when it is 110 cm from the source? ... Begin by writing an equation relating the intensity, I, and the distance from the source, x. Use k as the constant of proportionality. The intensity is changing at a rate of (Simplify your answer. Round to six decimal places as needed.) V when it is 110 cm from the source.
