Two coherent waves, coming from sources at different loca- tions, move along the x axis. Their wave functions are E, = 860 sin 650 924mt + 6. and E, = 860 sin 924mt + 650 where E, and E, are in volts per meter, x, and x, are in nano- meters, and t is in picoseconds. When the two waves are superposed, determine the relationship between x, and x, that produces constructive interference.
Two waves Y1 = 5.4 sin (2355 t –0.0628 x + 5n) and Y2 = 6.8 sin (2355 t –0.0628 x + 6t) interfere. Compute: (a) the frequency (f) of each wave, and (b) the wavelength (^) of each wave (All quantities are in SI units)
The speed of a light wave in a certain transparent material is 0.5790.579 times its speed in vacuum, which is 3.00×108 m/s3.00×108 m/s. When yellow light with a frequency of 5.23×1014 Hz5.23×1014 Hz passes through this material, what is its wavelength ?� in nanometers?
