Two radio antennas separated by d = 286 m as shown in the figure below simultaneously broadcast identical signals at the same wavelength. A car travels due north along a straight line at position x = 1050 m from the center point between the antennas, and its radio receives the signals. Note: Do not use the small-angle approximation in this problem. d (a) If the car is at the position of the second maximum after that at point O when it has traveled a distance y = 400 m northward, what is the wavelength of the signals? m (b) How much farther must the car travel from this position to encounter the next minimum in reception? m

Question

1 and 2 thanks in advance

Two radio antennas separated by d = 286 m as shown in the figure below simultaneously broadcast identical signals at the same
wavelength. A car travels due north along a straight line at position x = 1050 m from the center point between the antennas, and
its radio receives the signals. Note: Do not use the small-angle approximation in this problem.
d
(a) If the car is at the position of the second maximum after that at point O when it has traveled a distance y = 400 m
northward, what is the wavelength of the signals?
m
(b) How much farther must the car travel from this position to encounter the next minimum in reception?

Problem 4: Speed deamplifier. In the figure above on the right, block 1 of mass m1 slides along an x-axis on a frictionless floor at speed 4 m/sec.Then it undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 2 of mass m2 = 2m1. Next, block 2 undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 3 of mass mz = 4m1. What then is the speed of block 3? Answer: 16 m/sec or 1.78 m/sec.
