Each of the photographs at right shows a part of a ripple tank that contains two sources that are in phase.
For each of the photographs, identify:
• nodal lines
• the approximate locations of the sources
• the line that contains the two sources
Which of the two photographs more closely corresponds to the situation that you have been studying? Explain your reasoning.
What difference(s) in the two situations could account for the difference in the number and the locations of the nodal lines?

- 1, Are the two sources in phase or out of phase? Explain how you can tell from the diagram. If the two sources are out of phase, give the phase difference between the two sources. Explain. 2, What is the source separation, d, in terms of the wavelength X?

If the hole diameter is increased by 20%, does the circular spot of light on the screen decrease in diameter, increase in diameter, or stay the same? Explain. Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. Reset Help The wavelets do not and so the diameter of the spot of light on the screen with the hole's interfere in this case diameter. The diameter of the central maximum is inversely proportional to the diameter of the hole The diameter of the central maximum is proportional to the diameter of the hole The hole is too large to observe the diffraction increases decreases does not changearrow_forwardUnpolarized light, of intensity Io is incident on two polarizing filters as shown in the figure below. An observer at the location shown looks towards the polarizers. The double ended arrow on each polarizer represents the transmission axis of that polarizer. Unpolarized light, intensity 1, 90° Observer Polarizers • In terms of Io, determine the intensity of light that reaches point P. • In terms of Io, determine the intensity of light that reaches the observer. Suppose the first polarizer were by rotated clockwise by 60° in the frame of reference of the observer. Does the intensity of light reaching point P increase, decrease, or remain the same? Does the intensity of light reaching the observer X increase, decrease, or remain the same?arrow_forwarda) Two polarizers are arranged as shown in the figure below. If the incident beam of light is unpolarized and has an intensity of 2.2 W/m2 , find the transmitted intensity if Theta 3 =90 degrees Give all of your answers to 3 sig fig.
